  2. The Company’s shareholders shall have preferential rights to subscribe for the new shares in proportion to the shares previously owned.
  3. The record date for entitlement to participate in the Rights Issue shall be 17 October 2018.
  4. If not all of the shares are subscribed for by exercise of subscription rights, the Board of Directors shall, up to the maximum amount of the Rights Issue, resolve on allotment of shares subscribed for without the exercise of subscription rights where in such case, allotment shall be made in the following order:
    1. Those who have subscribed for new shares by the exercise of subscription rights (irrespective of whether or not they were shareholders on the record date) and, in the event of over-subscription, pro rata in relation to the number of new shares subscribed for by exercise of subscription rights.
    2. Others who have given notice of their interest in subscribing for shares without the exercise of subscription rights and, in the event of over-subscription, pro rata in relation to such declared interest.

To the extent allotment according to this item 4 cannot be made pro rata, allotment shall be made by drawing of lots.

  1. Subscription of shares shall be made during the period as from 19 October 2018 up to and including 7 November 2018.
  2. Subscription for shares by exercise of subscription rights shall be made by simultaneous cash payment to a bank account designated by the Company. Subscription for shares without subscription rights shall be submitted on a separate subscription list where allotted shares shall be paid in cash no later than three (3) banking days from dispatch of the contract note to the subscriber setting forth the allotment of shares. The Board of Directors shall be entitled to extend the period for subscription and the time for payment.
  3. The new shares shall entitle to dividend as from the first record date for dividend to occur after the registration of the Rights Issue with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.

The CEO, or the person that the CEO appoints, shall be authorised to make such minor adjustments in the above resolutions as may be required in connection with registration at the Swedish Companies Registration Office or Euroclear Sweden AB.
