Item 12 – Resolution regarding authorization of the Board of Directors to issue new shares, warrants and/or convertible instruments

The Board of Directors proposes it be authorized to, with or without deviation from shareholders’ preferential rights and on one or several occasions during the period until the next Annual General Meeting, resolve to increase the Company’s share capital with not more than 20 per cent of the share capital of the Company at the time of the Annual General Meeting, by issuing new shares of series B, or warrants or convertible instruments regarding such shares.

Any issues under this authorization shall be conducted under market conditions, subject to issue discounts in line with market practice. Payment may, apart from payment in cash, be made in kind or by set-off or otherwise be coupled with conditions pursuant to the Swedish Companies Act. The Board of Directors shall determine the other conditions for issues in accordance with this authorization and who shall have the right to subscribe for shares, warrants or convertibles. The purpose of the authorization and the reasons for any deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights and/or with payment in kind or by set-off or otherwise is that the Company in connection with acquisitions, directly or indirectly, of properties or property-owning companies may quickly need access to capital or be able to pay for such acquisitions with the Company's shares, or otherwise to capitalize the Company in a time- and cost-effective manner.

The Managing Director, or any person appointed by the Board of Directors, shall be authorized to make minor amendments to the Annual General Meeting’s resolution and to take those measures that are required in connection with the registration of the resolution.

A resolution in accordance with this item is valid only where supported by shareholders holding not less than two thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the General Meeting.

Item 13 – Resolution regarding authorization of the Board of Directors to resolve on acquisitions and transfers of own shares

The Board of Directors proposes it be authorized to, on one or several occasions during the period until the next Annual General Meeting, resolve on acquisitions of own shares as follows:

  1. Acquisition may take place provided that the Company’s holding does not at any time exceed ten per cent of all shares in the Company.
  2. Acquisition may take place on Nasdaq Stockholm.
  3. Acquisitions on Nasdaq Stockholm may only occur at a price per share within the price interval registered at any given time, i.e. the interval between the highest bid price and the lowest selling price.
  4. Payment for the shares shall be made in cash.

The Board further proposes it be authorized to, on one or several occasions during the period until the next Annual General Meeting, resolve on transfer of the Company’s own shares as follows:

  1. All treasury shares held by the Company at any given time may be transferred.
  2. Transfer of own shares shall be made either on Nasdaq Stockholm or in another manner with deviation from shareholders’ preferential rights.
  3. Transfer of shares on Nasdaq Stockholm may only occur at a price per share within the price interval registered at any given time, i.e. the interval between the highest bid price and the lowest selling price. Transfer of own shares in another manner shall be conducted under market conditions, subject to issue discounts in line with market practice.
  4. Payment for transferred shares may, apart from payment in cash, be made in kind or by set-off.

The purpose of the authorization to acquire and transfer own shares is to provide the Board of Directors with greater freedom of action in relation to the Company’s capital structure, and to make it possible for the Company to finance acquisitions with own shares. The possibility to deviate from the shareholders’ preferential rights when transferring own shares is motivated by the fact that a transfer of shares on Nasdaq Stockholm, or otherwise with the deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights, can be done more rapidly and more cost efficient than by a transfer to the shareholders. If, in connection with an acquisition, the Company’s own shares are transferred against compensation in any other form than cash, the Company cannot provide the shareholders the opportunity to exercise their preferential rights.

A resolution in accordance with this item is valid only where supported by shareholders holding not less than two thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the General Meeting.
