  1. Approval of transfer of warrants

1.                   Eligible for acquisition          
The right to acquire warrants from the Company shall accrue to the Company's four board members – personally or through a wholly owned company.

Each ordinary member of the board of directors has the right to acquire a maximum of 250,000 warrants of series 2022/2023 and 250,000 warrants of series 2022/2025 each and the chairman of the board has the right to acquire a maximum of 500,000 warrants of series 2022/2023 and 250,000 warrants of series 2022/2025.

The transfer of warrants of series 2022/2023 shall take place on June 30, 2023 and the transfer of warrants of series 2022/2025 shall take place on June 30, 2024. The transfer shall only be made to persons who, at the time of the transfer, are still fulfilling their directorship for the Company.

Allocation requires that the acquisition of warrants can legally take place and that, in the opinion of the board of directors, it can be made to reasonable administrative and financial efforts.

2.                   Price and payment               
The warrants shall be transferred without consideration. The value per warrant has been calculated by the Company to SEK 0.54 per warrant of series 2022/2023 and SEK 0.80 per warrant of series 2022/2025 based on a share price at valuation of approx. SEK 1.6 and a volatility of 66 percent.

  1. More information about the warrant program

1.                   Dilution
Upon full subscription with the support of all warrants, 2,250,000 new shares may be issued, which corresponds to a dilution of approximately 3.45 percent of the total number of shares and votes in the Company, however, subject to the recalculation of the number of shares that each warrant entitles to subscription for, which may occur as a result of certain issues and more.

2.                   Costs for the Company, motives etc.          
The Company’s costs for the program are, in addition to costs for preparation and administration of the incentive program, limited to social security charges in Sweden for the participant with tax domicile in Sweden. Assuming an increase of the Company’s share price by 100 percent during the term of the program, these costs would not exceed approximately SEK 300,000.

The other participants in the program are, for tax purposes, residents outside of Sweden. According to foreign tax law, this means that the program does not give rise to any costs for the Company as the participants themselves are responsible for taxation. Against this background, there is no reason for the Company to hedge the warrant program in this regard.

It is considered justified that the term of the warrants is less than three years since the incentive program is deemed necessary for the Company to be able to provide fair consideration without affecting the liquidity to an excessive extent, and thereby attract and retain competent board members.

Therefore, it is considered that the subscription price and the maturity of the warrants, as well as the principles for allocation of warrants to the board members, may be considered reasonable in light of market practice and the Company's need to be able to stimulate the participants' work effort through an offer to participate in the warrant program.

3.                   Other share-based incentive programs       

The Company currently has no other share-based incentive programs.

4.                   Promotion of the Company’s long-term value creation       
In order for the program to have an economic value for the participants, it requires that the share price exceeds the subscription price during the period when the warrants can be exercised. The Company believes that the share price is a good indication that the participants have contributed to long-term value creation for the Company.

5.                   Preparation of the matter

The warrant program has been developed by shareholders in the Company.

6.                   Authorization and decision-making rules

The general meeting instructs the board of directors of the Company to execute the resolution in accordance with items A and B above and to carry out the transfer of warrants in accordance with item C above.
