Proposed resolutions
Resolution on approval of a directed new issue of shares (item 7)
The Board of Directors in XVIVO Perfusion Aktiebolag (publ) has resolved, subject to the subsequent approval of the general meeting, on a new issue of shares with deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights, on the following main terms and conditions.
Increase in share capital and number of shares

Subscription right
The right to subscribe for new shares shall, with deviation of the preferential rights of the shareholders, be granted to institutional investors that have been approached in advance. The investors have been selected based on an accelerated book building which has been carried out by the Company’s financial advisor Pareto Securities AB. The reason for deviating from the shareholders’ preferential rights by conducting a directed new share issue is to broaden the shareholder base and that a directed share issue means lower costs and a faster process which collectively and with sufficient strength indicate that it is in the company’s and the shareholders’ interest that the new issue is made with deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights.
Subscription and payment period
The new shares are to be subscribed for on a separate subscription list at the latest on 12 April 2017. The shares are to be paid for at the latest on 12 April 2017. The board of directors shall be entitled to prolong the subscription and payment period.
Subscription price
The new shares shall be issued at a price of SEK 76.5 per share. The subscription price has been determined through an accelerated book building conducted by the Company’s financial advisor Pareto Securities AB and is assessed by the board of directors to correspond to the market value of the shares.
Right to dividend
The new shares shall entitle to dividends for the first time on the record day for dividends that occurs immediately following the date when the shares were registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.
Majority requirements
For a valid resolution pursuant to this item 7, a shareholder majority of two thirds of the votes cast and two thirds of the shares represented at the meeting is required.
