(d) the minimum price (excluding expenses) which may be paid for each ordinary share is £0.002, being the nominal value; and

(e) the maximum price (excluding expenses) which may be paid for each ordinary share is the higher of (i) 105 per cent of the average market value of the Company's ordinary shares for the five business days prior to the day on which that ordinary share is contracted to be purchased and (ii) the higher of the price of the last independent trade of and the highest current independent bid for the Company's ordinary shares on the NASDAQ First North Growth Market at the time that ordinary share is contracted to be purchased,

Notes to the notice of annual general meeting

Attending the meeting or vote by proxy.

Shareholders who wish to attend or vote by proxy at the Annual General Meeting must be entered in the share register maintained by Euroclear Sweden on 24th June 2024.

Proxies.

As a member of the Company, you are entitled to appoint a proxy to exercise all or any of your rights to attend, speak and vote at the meeting and you should receive a proxy form by post. You can only appoint a proxy using the procedures set out in these notes and the notes to the proxy form.

A proxy does not need to be a member of the Company but must attend the meeting to represent you. Details of how to appoint the Chairman of the meeting or another person as your proxy using the proxy form are set out in the notes to the proxy form. If you wish your proxy to speak on your behalf at the meeting you will need to appoint your own choice of proxy (not the Chairman) and give your instructions directly to them.

You may appoint more than one proxy provided each proxy is appointed to exercise rights attached to different shares. You may not appoint more than one proxy to exercise rights attached to any one share. To appoint more than one proxy you will need a separate proxy form in relation to each appointment. Please state clearly on each proxy form the number of shares in relation to which the proxy is appointed.

If you have not received a proxy form by letter and believe that you should have one, or if you require additional forms, please contact Computershare UK (“Computershare”) at the address in note 6 below.

If you do not give your proxy an indication of how to vote on any resolution, your proxy will vote or abstain from voting at his or her discretion. Your proxy will vote (or abstain from voting) as he or she thinks fit in relation to any other matter which is put before the meeting.

The notes to the proxy form explain how to direct your proxy how to vote on each resolution or withhold their vote. To appoint a proxy using the proxy form, the form must be completed and signed; and:

sent or delivered to Computershare by post to Computershare Investor Services PLC, The Pavilions, Bridgewater Road, Bristol BS99 6ZY, UK;
shareholders can vote online by visiting the following website: www.eproxyappointment.com;
received by Computershare no later than 2.00 p.m. on 24th June 2024; and
please see point 1 above regarding re-registration of shares.

In the case of a member which is a company, the proxy form must be executed under its common seal or signed on its behalf by an officer of the company or an attorney for the company. Any power of attorney or any other authority under which the proxy form is signed (or a duly certified copy of such power or authority) must be included with the proxy form.

In the case of joint holders, where more than one of the joint holders purports to appoint a proxy, only the appointment submitted by the most senior holder will be accepted. Seniority is determined by the order in which the names of the joint holders appear in the Company’s register of members in respect of the joint holding (the first-named being the most senior).

Explanation of resolutions.

There are eleven resolutions (the “Resolutions”) to be proposed at the AGM. The Resolutions relate to the following:

Receipt of the Company’s Accounts (Resolution 1)

The Directors will lay before shareholders at the AGM the annual report and accounts for the year ended 31 December 2022. A copy of the annual report and accounts will be available on the Company’s website at www.flexionmobile.com/investor-relations/. If you require a hard copy of the annual report and accounts please contact the Company Secretary.

Re-appointment of the Auditor and Auditor’s Remuneration (Resolution 2)

The shareholders are asked to re-appoint Grant Thornton UK LLP as the auditors of the Company to hold office until the completion of the audit for the 2022 financial statements (if applicable), to appoint an auditor as presented at the AGM for the 2023 financial year to hold office until the conclusion of the next general meeting and to authorise the directors to determine the auditors’ remuneration;

Appointment and Re-election of Directors (Resolutions 3 to 8)

In accordance with the Company’s articles of association, at each annual general meeting of the Company every Director must offer himself for re-appointment by the members.

Biographies of each of the individuals proposing to be re-appointed are set out below.

Providing Directors with authority to allot shares (Resolution 9)

Resolution 9 authorises the Directors to allot shares and grant rights to subscribe for or convert any securities into shares in accordance with section 551 of the CA 2006.

If passed, Resolution 9 will authorise the Directors to allot shares or grant rights to subscribe for or convert any securities into shares up to a maximum nominal amount of GBP 37,488.84 which represents approximately one third of the Company's issued ordinary shares as at 6.00pm on 31st May 2024 (being the latest practicable date before publication of this notice).

Disapplying Pre-Emption Rights (Resolution 10)

Resolution 10 disapplies the pre-emption rights provided by section 561 of the Companies Act 2006 on the allotment of equity securities for cash.

If passed, Resolution 10 will disapply the pre-emption rights for the allotment authorised by Resolution 9 (when the Company allots shares for cash):

made in connection with rights issues or other pre-emptive offers where the ordinary shares or rights are offered first to existing shareholders in proportion (as nearly as may be practicable) to their existing holdings of ordinary shares;
otherwise, up to an aggregate nominal amount of GBP 11,246.65, representing approximately one tenth of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company as at the date of the notice of meeting; and
otherwise, up to a nominal amount equal to one fifth of any allotment pursuant to the bullet point above, to be used only for the purposes of a follow-on offer.

Whilst the Directors have no present intention to exercise this power, they consider that having it in place would put the Company in a strong position to address any short-term funding requirements in a cost effective and efficient manner, as well as to pursue potential acquisition opportunities as they arise and as otherwise necessary to retain flexibility.

Disapplying Pre-Emption Rights (Resolution 11)

Like Resolution 10, Resolution 11 disapplies the pre-emption rights provided by section 561 of the Companies Act 2006 on the allotment of equity securities for cash.

If passed, Resolution 11 will disapply the pre-emption rights for the allotment authorised by Resolution 9 (when the Company allots shares for cash):

up to an aggregate nominal amount of GBP 11,246.65, representing an additional one tenth of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company as at the date of the notice of meeting such authority to be used only for the purposes of financing (or refinancing, if the authority is to be used within 12 months after the original transaction) a transaction which the Directors determine to be either an acquisition or a specified capital investment of a kind contemplated by the Statement of Principles on Disapplying Pre-Emption Rights most recently published by the Pre-Emption Group prior to the date of this notice; and
otherwise, up to a nominal amount equal to one fifth of any allotment pursuant to the bullet point above, to be used only for the purposes of a follow-on offer.

Authority to make purchases of own shares (Resolution 12)

This resolution authorises the Company to make market purchases of up to 5,623,326 of its own ordinary shares, representing approximately one tenth of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company as at the date of the notice of meeting.

The resolution specifies the minimum and maximum prices which may be paid for ordinary shares and will expire at the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company.

The Company may either cancel any shares it purchases or transfer them into treasury (and subsequently sell or transfer them out of treasury or cancel them).
