The board proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves on a long-term, share based, incentive program in accordance with items A.-C. (the "Stock Option Program 2023/2026"), which materially has the same structure as the stock option programs adopted by the Annual General Meeting in 2020 ("Stock Option Program 2020/2023") and by the Annual General Meeting 2022 ("Stock Option Program 2022/2025").

The objective of the Stock Option Program 2023/2026 is to link a portion of the employees' remuneration to INVISIO's long-term performance and value creation for the shareholders. Thereby the long-term interests of the employees aligns with the interests of the shareholders. In addition, the Stock Option Program 2023/2026 will be an important tool for INVISIO to recruit, retain and motivate the company's employees and the board considers the program beneficial for both INVISIO and its shareholders in the coming years. Board members elected by the general meeting are not allowed to participate in the Stock Option Program 2023/2026.

A.        ADOPTION OF THE PROGRAM

1.         The Stock Option Program 2023/2026 in brief

All INVISIO group employees shall be entitled to participate in the Stock Option Program 2023/2026.

Based on performance, position and the employee's importance to the INVISIO group, the employees will be granted stock options which entitle the participants to acquire shares in INVISIO during 2026, subject to the terms and conditions of the Stock Option Program 2023/2026 (the "Stock Options"). If the participant (i) throughout the entire vesting period of the Stock Option Program 2023/2026, which runs from the allotment of the Stock Option up to and including 8 May 2026 (the "Vesting Period"), with certain exceptions, is employed by the INVISIO group and (ii) to the extent the performance based criteria for the Stock Options has been reached during 9 May 2023 – 8 May 2026 (the "Measurement Period"), the participants will be entitled to acquire shares in INVISIO during May – June 2026.

To ensure INVISIO's undertaking to deliver shares to the participants in the Stock Option Program 2023/2026, the board proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves to issue a maximum of 800,000 warrants (each warrant entitles to subscription for one (1) share in INVISIO) to a wholly-owned Danish subsidiary, INVISIO A/S (the "Subsidiary"). To such extent the performance criteria of the Stock Option Program 2023/2026 is reached, the warrants shall be exercised to deliver shares in INVISIO to the participants in the Stock Option Program 2023/2026.

2.        Costs

Pursuant to IFRS 2, the Stock Options are to be recorded as a personnel expense during the Vesting Period and should be reported directly against equity. Based on the assumption of a share price of SEK 220 at the time of allotment and calculated by using the Black & Scholes and Monte Carlo methods, the estimated total reported cost for the Stock Options is approx. SEK 25.1 million for the period 2023/2026.

In the event of a positive price trend, social security costs will arise due to the Stock Options. These costs shall be written off during the tenor of the Stock Options based on the value changes of the Stock Options.

Based on the assumption that all 800,000 Stock Options will be exercised to acquire new shares in INVISIO on 15 May 2026, and the INVISIO share price increases with 30 per cent and outperforms the SIXPRX Index (see definition below in item 5.5) by 20 percentage points during the Vesting Period, the social security costs are estimated to be approx. SEK 5.7 million. The costs are continuously reviewed during the Vesting Period.  

3.        Dilution and effects on important key ratios

Up to 800,000 Stock Options may be issued to the participants in the program. The maximum number of shares in INVISIO which may be subscribed for in the Stock Option Program 2023/2026 is 800,000, corresponding to an increase of the share capital of a maximum of SEK 800,000. Based on the current number of outstanding shares, the maximum dilution resulting from the Stock Option Program 2023/2026 will be approx. 1.7 per cent of outstanding shares and votes, provided that all Stock Options are exercised to acquire new shares in INVISIO. The total dilution resulting from all Stock Options being exercised to acquire new shares in INVISIO in Stock Option Program 2020/2023, Stock Option Program 2022/2025 and Stock Option Program 2023/2026 is approx. 4.4 per cent based on the number of outstanding shares and votes as of today.

The costs and dilution are expected to have only a marginal effect on the key ratios of INVISIO.

4.        Other share related incentive programs

There are two ongoing share related incentive programs in INVISIO, the Stock Option Program 2020/2023 adopted by the Annual General Meeting 2020 and the Stock Option Program 2022/2025 adopted by the Annual General Meeting 2022.

5.        Main terms and conditions for the Stock Option Program 2023/2026

1. 1. Issuance and allotment of Stock Options

A maximum of 800,000 Stock Options may be allotted to the participants in the Stock Option Program 2023/2026. Allotment will occur on 9 May 2023.

1. 2. Participants in the program and allocation

The Stock Options may be allocated to all employees who, at the time of allotment, are permanently employed by the INVISIO group, approx. 226 persons. Persons who, at the time of allotment, have resigned from their employment, or who have been dismissed from their employment by INVISIO, will not be granted Stock Options. Future employees, who have not yet commenced their employment at the time of allotment, may, conditioned upon that the employment commences on 1 December 2023 at the latest, be offered to participate in the Stock Option Program 2023/2026 if the board considers it compatible with the objective of the program.

The participants may be granted the maximum number of Stock Options as stated below.

Category 1 – CEO may be granted a maximum of 24,000 Stock Options.

Category 2 – a maximum of five senior executives, may be granted a maximum of 12,000 Stock Options per person.

Category 3 – other employees, approx. 220 persons, may be granted a maximum of 6,000 Stock Options per person.

Allotment of Stock Options shall be based on inter alia the participant's performance, position and importance for INVISIO.

No employee is guaranteed to be granted Stock Options.

1. 3. Stock Option price and purchase price

The granted Stock Options are received free of charge.

After the Stock Options have been granted and vested, and to the extent the performance criteria for the Stock Options have been reached, each Stock Option entitles to the acquisition of one (1) share in INVISIO at a price corresponding to the average share price of INVISIO's share during the period 1 April 2023 – 30 April 2023 (the "Purchase Price"). The average share price shall be calculated as the average for each trading day calculated average volume-weighted price paid for the INVISIO share on Nasdaq Stockholm, round off to the nearest full ten öre whereby five öre shall be round off upwards.

1. 4. Vesting conditions

If, for whatever reason, a participant's employment with the INVISIO group would come to an end before the end of the Vesting Period, the Stock Options will lapse and cannot be exercised. Only if the participant has been employed by the INVISIO group for at least 36 months at the end of the notice period, and:

1. the employment is terminated by INVISIO or any of its subsidiaries for any reason other than due to the participant's breach of the employment agreement, or

2. the employment is terminated in INVISIO or any of its subsidiaries by the participant due to a significant breach of the employment agreement by INVISIO or any of its subsidiaries,

the participant shall be entitled to exercise the Stock Options during the Exercise Period.

A participant encompassed by items (a)-(b) above shall, with regard to the Stock Options, be treated as if he/she was still employed by the INVISIO group during the entire Vesting Period.

1. 5. Performance criteria

The number of granted Stock Options, which each participant will be entitled to exercise to acquire shares in INVISIO, is dependent on the extent to which the following performance criteria for the Stock Option Program 2023/2026 has been reached:

The share price development for the INVISIO share (including paid dividends from INVISIO to its shareholders for the period 1 April 2023 – 30 April 2026) during the Measurement Period compared to the SIX Portfolio Return Index ("SIXPRX") reference index. (SIXPRX displays the average development (including dividends) on Nasdaq Stockholm adjusted for stock fund placement limitations.)

In order for all (100 per cent) of the Stock Options to entitle the participant to acquire shares in INVISIO it is required that the share price development for INVISIO surpasses SIXPRX with 20 percentage points. If the share price development surpasses SIXPRX with 10 percentage points, half (50 per cent) of the participant's Stock Options will entitle the participant to acquire shares in INVISIO. If the share price development for the INVISIO share surpasses SIXPRX with more than 10 but with less than 20 percentage points, the Stock Options will entitle to acquisition of shares in INVISIO on a linear basis between 50 to 100 per cent. If the share price development in INVISIO does not surpasses SIXPRX with 10 percentage points, all (100 per cent) of the Stock Options will lapse.

1. 6. Exercise

The exercise of Stock Options to acquire new shares in INVISIO may, to the extent the performance criteria for the Stock Option Program 2023/2026 is reached and the participant has fulfilled the vesting conditions, occur during the period 15 May – 30 June 2026 (the "Exercise Period").

The Exercise Period may be postponed if the board deems it suitable.

The Stock Options will automatically lapse and may no longer be exercised at the end of the Exercise Period.

1. 7. Transfer and pledging

Stock Options are non-transferrable and may not be pledged.

1. 8. Recalculation

As far as the warrants, which have been issued to secure delivery of shares to the participants in the Stock Option Program 2023/2026, are subject to recalculation according to the terms and conditions for warrants, the Stock Options shall be recalculated accordingly.

Recalculation shall take place in the event of e.g. bonus issues, rights issues, reverse share splits and share splits in accordance with the terms and conditions for warrants 2023/2026, which are available on INVISIO's website.

1. 9. Change of control

In the event of a change of control in INVISIO, which inter alia includes that someone, directly or indirectly, owns or controls 50 per cent or more of the votes in INVISIO as well as in certain other events, participants have a right to exercise granted Stock Options in advance, i.e. even during the Vesting Period.

1. 10. Preparation and administration

The Stock Options shall be subject to the provisions of separate agreements with each participant.

The board shall be responsible for preparing the agreements with the participants and the administration of the Stock Option Program 2023/2026, with its primary terms and conditions being in accordance with the resolution by the Annual General Meeting. In connection therewith, the board may make adjustments in order to fulfil specific rules or market conditions. Further, the board may make other adjustments, including to resolve to reduce the number of Stock Options which may be exercised to acquire new shares (wholly or partially) for all employees or certain categories of employees which are encompassed by the Stock Option Program 2023/2026, if significant changes occur in the INVISIO group or on the market that the board considers entailing that the conditions for acquisition of new shares in the Stock Option Program 2023/2026 no longer fulfils the objective of the Stock Option Program 2023/2026. 

B.        ISSUANCE OF WARRANTS

In order to secure the delivery of shares pursuant to the Stock Option Program 2023/2026, the board of INVISIO proposes that INVISIO, deviating from the shareholders' preferential rights, issues a maximum of 800,000 warrants, Series 2023/2026, entitling to subscription of new shares in INVISIO as follows.

1. The warrants shall be issued free of charge. Each warrant shall entitle to subscription of one share in INVISIO, thus, the share capital will increase with maximum SEK 800,000 after full exercise of the warrants.

2. With deviation of the shareholders' preferential rights, Invisio A/S shall be entitled to subscribe for the warrants.

3. The warrants shall be subscribed for by 10 May 2023 at the latest. The term of subscription may be extended by the board.

4. The warrants may be exercised for subscription of shares from the day the warrants are registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office up to and including 31 December 2026.

5. The warrants shall have a subscription price at subscription of new share corresponding to the average share price of the INVISIO share during the period 1 April 2023 – 30 April 2023 (i.e. the same price as the Purchase Price, defined in item A). The average share price shall be calculated as the average for each trading day calculated average volume-weighted price paid for the INVISIO share on Nasdaq Stockholm, round off to the nearest full ten öre whereby five öre shall be round off upwards, during a specified period. In the event that a price paid is not available, the bid price listed as the closing price shall be included in the calculation. A day without a listing of a price paid or bid price shall not be included in the calculation.

6. The newly issued shares shall entitle to dividend from the first record date for dividend that occurs after the shares have been registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.

7. The complete terms and conditions for the warrants are available on INVISIO's website and will be registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office and Euroclear Sweden AB.

The reason for the deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights is that the issuance (and the transfer) ensures delivery of shares to the participants in the Stock Option Program 2023/2026. For an account of the reasons for adopting the Stock Option Program 2023/2026, please see item A.

C.         APPROVAL OF TRANSFER OF WARRANTS

The board proposes that the Subsidiary may transfer/dispose the warrants to the participants or otherwise to third parties for the purpose of delivering shares in INVISIO to the participants in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Stock Option Program 2023/2026. The Subsidiary may only transfer/dispose the warrants for this purpose.

D.        MISCELLANEOUS

1. Majority requirements
