The registered auditing firm KPMG, with the authorized auditor Peter Dahllöf as auditor in charge, was re-elected as auditor. Fees to the auditor shall be based on approved invoices.

Share split and amendment of the articles of association

The AGM resolved on a share split whereby each share shall be divided into four shares (a so called share split, 4:1). The AGM authorized the Board of Directors to determine the record date for the share split. The AGM also resolved on an amendment of the articles of association including that the provisions on preference shares are removed resulting in the Company’s existing ordinary shares only being referred to as “shares”, and that the number of shares shall be not less than 80,000,000 and not more than 320,000,000.

Establishment of an incentive programme by way of an issue of warrants to the participants

The AGM resolved to establish an incentive programme by way of an issue of warrants to the participants. The incentive programme is directed to all employees in the Eastnine group (currently 21 persons). The participants in the incentive programme are offered to subscribe for warrants at the fair market value of such warrant at the time of subscription and for each warrant purchased by the participants at the fair market value, an additional warrant is received free of charge. The number of warrants offered free of charge is limited to a certain specified level which is calculated based on the participant’s monthly fixed gross salary. Each warrant shall entitle the participants to, from and including 15 May 2027 (however not earlier than the day after the publication of the company’s interim report for the period January–March 2027) up to and including the date that falls 14 calendar days thereafter, subscribe for one new share in the company at a price equivalent to 125 per cent of the volume-weighted average price of the company’s share on Nasdaq Stockholm during a ten trading days measurement period before the AGM 2024. In total, up to 894,812 warrants may be issued to participants in the programme, which would entail a dilution of approximately 1.0 per cent and an increase of the company’s share capital by approximately EUR 36,597.81.

Authorization for the Board of Directors to transfer and acquire own shares

The AGM authorized the Board of Directors, on one or several occasions until the next AGM, to resolve on transfer and acquisition of own shares. Transfer of own shares may be made on Nasdaq Stockholm or otherwise. Acquisition of own shares may be made on Nasdaq Stockholm or in accordance with an offer to all shareholders and may amount to a maximum of so many shares that the company’s holding of own shares at any time does not exceed 10 per cent of all shares in the company.

Authorization for the Board of Directors to resolve on new share issue

The Board of Directors was authorized, on one or several occasions until the next AGM, with or without deviation from the shareholders’ preferential right, to resolve on new issues of shares corresponding to not more than 10 per cent of the company’s share capital.
