D. Proposal for a decision
Further information about the Share Issue (hereinafter referred to as the Share Issue) can be found in the company's press release on August 1.
Item 7 – Resolution to amend the Articles of Association
According to the current Articles of Association, the share capital shall be not less than SEK 16,000,000 and not more than SEK 64,000,000. The Board of Directors proposes that the Extraordinary General Meeting resolves that the share capital shall be not less than SEK 12,800,000 and not more than SEK 51,2000,000. The change in the capital limits is a prerequisite for the decision to reduce the share capital.
Item 8 – Resolution to reduce the share capital
The Board of Directors proposes that the Extraordinary General Meeting resolves to reduce the company's share capital by SEK 3,329,421.80. The reduction shall be carried out without cancellation of shares by reducing the quotient value of the share from one (1) SEK to 0.80 SEK. The reduction amount shall be used for allocation to unrestricted equity to be used in accordance with a decision by the general meeting. The reduction is carried out in order to reduce the quota value of the shares and thereby enable the Share Issue. After the reduction, the company's share capital will amount to SEK 12,485,331.75 divided into 16,647,109 shares (before the Share Issue), each share with a quotient value of SEK 0.80.
The decision to reduce the share capital can be implemented without obtaining the Swedish Companies Registration Office's permission, provided that at least 4,161,778 shares are subscribed for in the Share Issue. In such a case, the share capital increases by SEK 3,329,422.40, which means that neither the Company's restricted equity nor share capital decreases.
The resolution pursuant to this item 8 is conditional upon the Extraordinary General Meeting resolving on item 7 and items 9 and 10 in accordance with the Board's proposal and that these resolutions are registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.
Item 9 – Resolution on approval of the Board of Directors' resolution on a new issue of shares
The Board of Directors proposes that the Extraordinary General Meeting approve the Board of Directors' resolution of 1 August 2023 on a directed issue of new shares on the following terms.
- The company's share capital shall be increased by a maximum of SEK 9,000,000 (following a decision to reduce the share capital) through a new issue of not more than 11,250,000 new shares.
- The right to subscribe for the new shares shall, with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, accrue to a small group of investors and creditors in the company.
- The subscription price shall be SEK 0.80 per share.
- The premium shall be added to the free share premium fund.
- Subscription of new shares shall be made on a special subscription list no later than August 8, 2023. The Board of Directors is authorized to extend the subscription period.
- Subscribed shares shall be paid in cash no later than 24 August 2023. Payment may also be made by set-off if the conditions according to Chapter 13, Section 41 of the Swedish Companies Act are met. The Board of Directors is authorized to extend the time for payment.
- The new shares shall entitle to dividend for the first time on the record date for dividend that falls immediately after the new share issue has been registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.
Item 10 – Resolution on new issue of shares
The Board of Directors proposes that the Extraordinary General Meeting resolves on a directed issue of shares on the following terms.
- The company's share capital shall be increased by a maximum of SEK 1,000,000 through a new issue of not more than 1,250,000 new shares.
- The right to subscribe for the new shares shall, with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, accrue to the Chairman of the Board Erik Nerpin and the CEO Eric De Basso.
- The subscription price shall be SEK 0.80 per share.
- The premium shall be added to the free share premium fund.
- Subscription of new shares shall be made on a special subscription list no later than September 6, 2023.
- Subscribed shares shall be paid in cash no later than 8 September 2023.
- The new shares shall entitle to dividend for the first time on the record date for dividend that falls immediately after the new share issue has been registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.
The volume-weighted average price for the Company's shares on Spotlight Stock Market during the last 10 trading days prior to the Share Issue was approximately SEK 0.77. The closing price the day before the Share Issue was SEK 0.76. The issue price is thus slightly above the share price in relation to both the closing price the day before the issue decision and the weighted average price during the ten days before the issue decision. The Board therefore considers that the issue price is on market terms.
The new share issue is carried out without preferential rights for the shareholders. The Board of Directors has investigated the conditions and carefully considered the possibility of implementing the financing as a rights issue instead. The Board of Directors has made the assessment that the structure of the Share Issue is the most advantageous alternative for the Company and thus in the best interest of the existing shareholders (see further press release on August 1).
Item 11 – Election of new Board member and resolution on Board fees
Wicket Gaming's Board of Directors currently consists of three members - Erik Nerpin (Chairman), Eric De Basso and Benn Harradine. Spotlight Stock Market's regulations stipulate that the Board of Directors shall consist of at least four members and Wicket Gaming has therefore applied for and received an exemption.
A group of shareholders proposes the election of Christopher Lagerqvist Nerpin to the Board of Directors. Christopher Lagerqvist Nerpin is currently studying at the Stockholm School of Economics. He is the son of Chairman Erik Nerpin. With regard to Board fees, propose that the Board fee (SEK 150,000 to the Chairman and SEK 75,000 to other Board members who are not employed by the company) be increased by an annual fee of SEK 75,000.
