ESTABLISHMENT OF FEES TO BOARD DIRECTORS AND AUDITOR
The AGM resolved that fees totaling SEK 2,530,000 will be paid to the Board members, of which SEK 515,000 to the Chair of the Board and SEK 345,000 to each of the other Board members elected by the AGM. Furthermore, a fixed fee of SEK 105,000 shall be paid to the chair of the audit committee and SEK 55,000 shall be paid to each of the committee’s other members, and a fixed fee of SEK 65,000 shall be paid to the chair of the remuneration committee and SEK 10,000 shall be paid to each of the committee’s other members. However, no remuneration shall be paid to the Chair of the Board in his capacity as a member of the remuneration committee. A condition of payment is that the member is a Board member appointed by the AGM and not employed by the company or a subsidiary.
The AGM also resolved that the auditor’s fee be paid according to an approved invoice.
RESOLUTION REGARDING AUTHORIZATION FOR THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS TO RESOLVE ON ACQUISITIONS AND TRANSFERS OF THE COMPANY’S OWN SHARES
The AGM resolved to authorize the Board for the period up to the next AGM, on one or more occasions, to decide on:
(a) acquisitions of own shares on Nasdaq Stockholm (the “Stock Exchange”) within the context of a price per share that does not exceed a price higher than the higher of the price of the last independent trade and the highest current independent purchase bid on the trading venue where the shares are traded and otherwise in accordance with the terms applicable as set forth by Nasdaq Stockholm. Acquisitions may not be made at a price lower than the lowest price at which an independent acquisition can be made. If the Board of Directors assign a member of the exchange to accumulate a certain amount of the company’s own shares by proprietary trading during a certain time period and on the day of delivery pay for the shares, acquisitions may be made at a price corresponding to the volume weighted average price for the market as a whole for such period of time, even if the volume weighted average price falls outside the range of prices on the day of delivery. Acquisitions may be made up to a maximum of so many shares that the company’s holdings after the acquisition total up to 10% of outstanding shares in the company at any given time. The aim is to give the Board greater scope and ability to continuously adapt the company’s capital structure and thus contribute to greater shareholder value and to enable the Board to take advantage of attractive acquisition opportunities by wholly or partially financing acquisitions of companies, operations or assets with the company’s own shares.
(b) Transfer of no more than 10 percent of the total number of shares in the company from time to time. Transfers may be made with deviation from shareholders’ preferential rights on Nasdaq Stockholm as well as to third parties in connection with the acquisition of companies, operations or assets. Payment for transferred shares can be made in cash, through an issue in kind or set-off. Transfers of shares on Nasdaq Stockholm may only occur at a price per share within the share price interval registered at that time, where the share price interval means the difference between the highest buying price and the lowest selling price. Transfer in connection with acquisitions of companies, operations or assets may be made at a market value assessed by the Board of Directors. The purpose of the authorization is to give the Board more scope in connection with acquisitions of companies, operations or assets. The authorization also aims to give the Board of Directors greater scope and opportunity to continuously adapt the company’s capital structure.
RESOLUTION ON AUTHORIZATION FOR THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS TO DECIDE ON NEW SHARE ISSUES
The AGM resolved to authorize the Board for the period up to the next AGM, on one or more occasions, to decide on issues of new shares and/or issues of warrants and/or issues of convertibles with or without deviating from shareholders’ preferential rights and with provisions on payment in kind, offsetting or otherwise with conditions. The aim is to give the Board flexibility in its work to finance and potentially accelerate expansion and development of the Group, its market and products. A maximum of 2,104,020 shares may be issued, which equates to a dilution of approximately 10% of all shares in the company on the date of the notice to attend the 2026 AGM.
