Call option plan for senior executives
The Meeting resolved to introduce a call option plan for senior executives in the Lindab Group (the "Call Option Plan") through a directed issue of maximum 275,000 call options under the Call Option Plan. Senior executives within the Lindab Group shall have the right to participate in the Call Option Plan and shall be divided into three different categories: Lindab's CEO shall have the right to acquire up to 100,000 call options. The remaining members of Lindab's Group Management Team (approx. 8 persons), shall have the right to acquire up to 25,000 call options each. Significant executives outside group management are awarded a maximum of 10,000 call options per person. The total number of persons offered an award, including group management, will amount to a maximum of 20 persons. A person who is not employed by the Lindab Group at the time of the Annual General Meeting but will commence their employment within the Lindab Group no later than 31 August 2023 shall be entitled to participate in the Call Option Plan.

The objective of the plan, and the reason for deviating from the shareholders' preferential rights, is to strengthen the link between the work of senior executives and the creation of shareholder value. By those means, it is considered that there will be an increased alignment of interests between the senior executives and the shareholders of Lindab International AB ("Lindab").

 

Authorisation for the Board to resolve on transfer of treasury shares
The Meeting authorised the Board to resolve on transfer of treasury shares on one or several occasions during the period up to the Annual General Meeting. Transfer may be made of maximum the number of shares held by the company at the time of the Board’s resolution on transfer.

Transfer in connection with the acquisition of a company may take place at a market value appraised by the Board. The purpose of the authorisation is to finance acquisitions by utilisation of the company's treasury shares.
