Decision Proposal in Brief:
Board's Proposal for a Resolution on Directed New Share Issue for the Creation of Equalization Shares (Item 6)
The Board proposes that the Extraordinary General Meeting decides on a directed new share issue of B-shares. The decision is conditional upon the Extraordinary General Meeting deciding on the Board's proposal for a resolution on amendment of the Articles of Association and deciding on the Board's proposal for a resolution on consolidation of shares.
The following conditions shall apply to the issue:
- Through a directed new B share issue, increase the company's share capital by a maximum of 1,166338 SEK through the issuance of a maximum of 101 B-shares with a quota value of 0,0115479009105364 SEK at a subscription price of 0,0115479009105364 SEK per B-share (corresponding to the quota value). The total issue amount is maximum up to 1,166338 SEK.
- The right to subscribe for the new B-shares shall belong to Nordic Issuing AB, 559338-2509, for further transfer and through Euroclear Sweden AB's arrangement, to such shareholders whose shareholdings are not evenly divisible by two hundred (200) for the implementation of the Board's concurrent proposal for consolidation of shares.
- Dividends for the new B-shares shall be paid for the first time on the record date for dividends occurring after the registration of the B shares in the share register held by Euroclear Sweden AB.
- The new B-shares shall be subscribed for no later than April 12, 2024, through simultaneous payment. The Board has the right to extend the subscription and payment period.
- Authorize the Board or the one appointed by the Board to decide on minor adjustments required for the registration of the decision.
Reasons for the Board's Deviation from Shareholders' Pre-emption Rights and Valuation:
The reason for the Board's proposal to deviate from shareholders' preferential rights and the basis for the subscription price are that the company aims to have a number of B shares divisible by two hundred, thereby facilitating a share consolidation as per a separate proposal. The newly issued B shares shall be made available for free adjustment of shareholdings that are not evenly divisible by two hundred.
Board's Proposal for a Resolution on Amendment of the Articles of Association (Item 7)
The Board proposes that the Extraordinary General Meeting decides on an amendment of the Articles of Association in accordance with the following:
*Please note that the changes only apply for the Swedish version of the Articles of Association.

The decision is conditional upon the Extraordinary General Meeting deciding on the Board's proposal for a resolution on consolidation of shares and deciding on the Board's proposal for a resolution on directed new share issue for the creation of equalization shares.
Board's Proposal for a Resolution on Consolidation of Shares (Item 8)
The Board proposes that the Extraordinary General Meeting, with the aim of achieving a more efficient number of shares for the company, decides to consolidate shares in a ratio of 200:1, meaning that 200 shares will be consolidated into 1 share. The Board is proposed to be authorized, until the fifth business day before the next annual general meeting at the latest, to determine the record date when the consolidation shall be executed and to take the other measures required to implement the consolidation.
The proposal entails that the company's share capital, after a decision on equalization share issue and consolidation, amounts to 18 134 146,882 913 SEK, distributed among 3000 A-shares and 7 848 707 B-shares, each with a quota value of 2,309580182107278 SEK.
The proposal for resolution as above is contingent upon a guarantor for the B shares ("Guarantor No. 1") and a guarantor for the A shares ("Guarantor No. 2"), through the administration of Euroclear Sweden AB, providing such shareholders whose shareholdings are not evenly divisible by two hundred (200) with a sufficient number of shares so that their shareholdings, after the addition of shares provided free of charge by the guarantors, become evenly divisible by two hundred (200). Furthermore, the guarantors will round down their remaining shareholding in the Company to the nearest number divisible by two hundred (200) in order to facilitate the consolidation. Guarantor No. 1 will receive fair compensation, in order to achieve cost neutrality, for the shares provided by Guarantor No. 1 to facilitate the consolidation.
The decision is conditional upon the Extraordinary General Meeting deciding on the Board's proposal for a resolution on amendment of the Articles of Association. The decision on consolidation is also conditional upon the necessary equalization being possible within the framework of the number of shares provided by the guarantors.
The Board further proposes that the Board or the one appointed by the Board be authorized to make the minor adjustments in the decision of the Extraordinary General Meeting that may prove necessary in connection with registration and/or implementation of the decision.
