Issue of debentures with a maximum of 4,000,000 detachable warrants to subscribe for new shares Approval was given to the Board's proposal to raise a subordinated loan with a nominal amount of SEK 400,000 by issuing debentures with a maximum of 4,000,000 detachable warrants to subscribe for new shares in Song Networks Holding AB (the "Company"). The debentures with detachable warrants, which shall not include preferential rights for existing shareholders, shall be subscribed for by employees of the Song Networks Holding group. The purpose is to increase interest in the business and results of the Company, increase motivation and the bond to the group. If the warrants issued as a consequence of the decision are fully exercised, the share capital will increase by a maximum of SEK 200,000, which, assuming full exercise, corresponds to approximately 2.35% of the total number of shares and votes. The dilution, taking into account all previously issued and outstanding warrants, corresponds to approximately 8.45% of the total number of shares and voting rights. The dilution, taking into account all previously issued and outstanding warrants decided after the Company became a market-listed company, corresponds to approximately 2.56% of the total number of shares and voting rights. Authorisation for the Board to decide upon new issue The Extraordinary General Meeting also authorised the Board to, on one or more occasions, during the period up until the next Annual General Meeting, decide upon the issue of a maximum of 10,000,000 shares to be used in connection with possible acquisitions of companies or businesses or in kind to suppliers in relation to supply agreements, where payment is made by delivery of shares in the Company or by an issue in kind or off-set issue.
