The board's proposals to resolutions

Item 7. – Resolutions on (a) reduction of the share capital by way of cancellation of own shares, and (b) increase of the share capital by way of bonus issue

(a) Reduction of the share capital by way of cancellation of own shares

The board of directors proposes that the extraordinary general meeting resolves to reduce the share capital by way of cancellation of own shares which have been repurchased by the board of directors based on authorization given at the annual general meeting in 2022.

The share capital shall be reduced with SEK 25,915.74 by way of cancellation of 250,000 shares. The purpose of the reduction is allocation to unrestricted equity.

The resolution to reduce the share capital under this item (a) may be effectuated without obtaining an authorization from the Swedish Companies Registration Office or, in disputed cases, a court of general jurisdiction, as the Company simultaneously effectuates a bonus issue, as set out under item (b) below, with an amount corresponding to no less than the amount the share capital is being reduced with, as set out above. Combined, these measures entail that neither the Company’s restricted equity nor its share capital is reduced.

(b) Increase of the share capital by way of bonus issue

With the purpose of restoring the share capital after the proposed reduction of the share capital, as set out under item (a) above, the board of directors proposes that the extraordinary general meeting at the same time resolves to increase the share capital by way of a bonus issue with amount corresponding to SEK 25,915.74, which equals the amount that the share capital is reduced with by way of cancellation of shares, as set out under item (a) above. The bonus issue shall be carried out with the amount being transferred from unrestricted equity without the issuance of new shares.

The board of directors proposes that the resolutions under items (a) and (b) above will be voted on at the extraordinary general meeting as one joint resolution.

Majority requirement

A valid resolution requires that the shareholders at the meeting representing at least 2/3 of the number of shares and votes represented vote in favor of the proposal.

Item 8 - Resolution to authorize the board of directors to undertake minor adjustments of the resolutions

The board proposes that the general meeting authorizes the board, the CEO or the person otherwise designated by the board, to undertake minor adjustments and clarifications of the resolutions made by the general meeting to the extent it is required for registration of the resolutions.
