Pursuant to the authorization the Board of Directors has the right to decide that consideration for the new shares shall only be made through subscription in kind, and to determine other terms of the share issue, including the terms in accordance with Chapter 13, Section 5, item 6 (but excluding the right of set off) of the Swedish Companies Act (2005:551). The purpose of the authorization is to carry out a share issue in order to acquire all shares in Cameron Systems (VIC) Pty Ltd (“Cameron Systems”) and NewCo.
