Authorization to resolve on new issues
The annual general meeting resolved to authorize the Board of Directors to, on one or several occasions, during the time up until the next annual general meeting, with or without deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, and with or without provisions regarding payment in kind or through set-off or other provisions, to resolve to issue new shares, convertibles and/or warrants. The increase of the share capital may correspond to a dilution of a maximum of 10 percent of the share capital at the time of the first use of the authorization. The reason for deviating from the shareholders' preferential rights shall be permitted is to enable the Company to raise working capital, to execute acquisitions of companies or operating assets, to be able to expand the ownership base with owners of strategic importance as well as to enable issues to industrial partners within the framework of partnerships and alliances.

To the extent that the issue is made with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, the issue shall be made on market terms.

Resolution on (A) employee share option program ESOP 2024 and (B) directed issue of
warrants and approval of transfer of warrants of Series ESOP 2024
The annual shareholders’ meeting resolved, in accordance with the proposal from the board, to adopt an employee option program for senior executives and employees. The annual shareholders’ meeting also resolved on directed issue of warrants and approval of transfer of warrants.

The program implies that a maximum of 2,271,303 employee options shall be offered to the Company’s CEO, up to four senior executives and up to two other employees. The allotted employee options will vest with 1/3 each on the date that falls 12, 24 and 36 months, respectively, following the date of allotment. Employees being part of any of the employee share option programs resolved upon during 2023 (Employee Option Program 2023 I and Employee Option Program 2023 II) and having recalled their participation in Employee Option Program 2023 I and/or Employee Option Program 2023 II before the annual general meeting of 2024, will have an initial vesting of 25 per cent of the total allocated number of employee options in ESOP 2024, meaning that such options will vest immediately upon allotment.

The holders shall be entitled to exercise allotted and vested employee options during the period starting on the date that falls 3 years after the allotment date and ending on 30 June 2029. Each employee option entitles the holder a right to acquire one new share in the Company against cash consideration at a subscription price amounting to 175 per cent of the volume weighted average share price of the Company’s share on Nasdaq Stockholm during the 10 trading days immediately prior to the day when a participant is allotted options (however, the exercise price cannot be less than the quota value of the share). The employee options shall be allotted without consideration, the employee options shall not constitute securities and shall not be able to be transferred or pledged.

In order to enable the Company’s delivery of shares under the employee option program, the annual shareholders’ meeting resolved to issue a maximum of 2,271,303 warrants to the Company or a subsidiary within the group. The warrants may thereafter be transferred to the participants in the employee option program without consideration in connection with the exercise of employee options. The purpose of the employee option program is to secure a long-term commitment for the employees in the Company through a compensation system which is linked to the Company’s future value growth. In case all warrants under the employee option program are exercised, the share capital will increase with 283,912.875 SEK and a total of 2,271,303 shares will be issued, which corresponds to a dilution of approximately 5.2 per cent of the Company’s share capital and votes.
