Item 9 – Appropriation

The board of directors proposes that no dividend be paid.

Item 16 – Share issue authorization

The board of directors proposes that the meeting resolves on an authorization for the board of directors to, with or without deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, on one or more occasions until the next annual general meeting, decide on new issue of shares, warrants and/or convertibles in the Company. The total number of shares covered by such new issues may in total correspond to a maximum of ten (10) percent of the shares in the Company at the time the authorization is used. Payment for subscribed shares, warrants or convertibles may be paid in cash, by set-off or by subordinated debt or on terms referred to in chapter 2 section 5 of the Companies Act. The purpose of the authorization and the reasons for a possible deviation from the shareholders' preferential right is to enable further financing of the Company's operations, to finance company acquisitions or acquisitions of businesses or assets, to be able to issue the said instruments as remuneration in such acquisitions and in the Company strategic collaborations, to enable emission to industrial partners and to broaden the shareholder group. The CEO, or who the board appoints, may make the minor adjustments in the decision required for the registration of the decision at the Swedish Companies Registration Office. 

Item 17 – Amendment of the Articles of Association 

The board of directors proposes that the 2020 annual general meeting resolves to amend the articles of association by reason of rules on shareholders' rights, as follows.

Current wording - § 9

“Shareholders that wish to participate at a general meeting shall be registered as shareholders in a transcript of the entire share register as stipulated in Chapter 7 Section 28, third paragraph, of the Swedish Companies Act (2005:551) that relates to the conditions prevailing five weekdays prior to the meeting and shall also provide notification of their intention to attend the meeting no later than on the date stipulated in the notice convening the general meeting. The latter mentioned day must not be a Sunday, any other public holiday, Saturday, Midsummer’s Eve, Christmas Eve, New Year’s Eve and must not fall earlier than the fifth weekday prior to the meeting. Shareholders may be accompanied at a general meeting by assistants (maximum two), however, only if the shareholder has notified the company in connection with the notification of attendance.”

Proposed wording - § 9

“In order to participate at a general meeting, a shareholder must notify the company not later than the date specified in the notice convening the general meeting. This day must not be a Sunday, any other public holiday, Saturday, Midsummer’s Eve, Christmas Eve, New Year’s Eve and must not fall earlier than the fifth weekday prior to the meeting. Shareholders may be accompanied at a general meeting by assistants (maximum two), however, only if the shareholder has notified the company in connection with the notification of attendance.”

The board of directors further proposes that the annual general meeting authorizes the CEO, or the person appointed by the CEO, to make the adjustments to the resolution that may seem necessary in connection with the registration of the resolution at the Swedish Companies Registration Office.
