PROPOSED RESOLUTIONS
Item 7 – Proposal to resolve on a directed new share issue to the sellers of Nordic Shield Group AB (publ)
The board of directors proposes that the extraordinary general meeting resolves on a directed new share issue of not more than 8,799,623 shares, entailing an increase of the Company’s share capital by not more than SEK 2,320,244.58. It is noted that the reason for the directed new share issue is in connection with the share purchase agreement that has been entered into regarding the Company’s acquisition of shares in Nordic Shield Group AB (publ) (”NSG”). The following terms and conditions shall otherwise apply to the resolution.

  1. The shares shall only be subscribed for by the major sellers of NSG, consisting of NEZ Holding AB, M4Y Sweden AB and Sailing Mare AB (the “Sellers”), with internal allocation in accordance with the share purchase agreement. The reason for the deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights is to fulfil the Company’s obligations in accordance with the share purchase agreement that has been entered into regarding the acquisition of the shares in NSG.
  2. The shares shall be subscribed for at a price of SEK 19.64 per share, corresponding to the volume-weighted average price (VWAP) for the Company’s share on the date of execution of the share purchase agreement. Any premium shall be transferred to the unrestricted share premium reserve. The subscription price has been determined partly through negotiations with the Sellers on an arm’s length basis, and partly by taking into account the volume-weighted average price for the Company’s shares. The board of directors therefore considers that the market terms of the subscription price have been ensured. Furthermore, the board of directors has also made the assessment that it is to the benefit of the Company and its shareholders that payment for the acquisition is partly made through newly issued shares in the Company.
  3. Over-subscription is not possible.
  4. Subscription of the newly issued shares shall be made on a separate subscription list made available to the subscribers. Subscription shall be made on the date of completion of the acquisition of the shares in NSG, but no later than 31 July 2026. The board of directors is entitled to extend the subscription period.
  5. Payment for subscribed shares shall be made in cash or by way of set-off of claims. Payment shall be made on the date of completion of the acquisition of the shares in NSG, but no later than 31 July 2026. The board of directors is entitled to postpone the final date for payment.
  6. The new shares shall entitle the holder to dividends from the date on which the shares have been entered in the share register maintained by Euroclear Sweden AB.
  7. The board of directors, or any person appointed by the board, is authorised to make such minor adjustments to this resolution as may be required in connection with registration with the Swedish Companies Registration Office (Sw. Bolagsverket) or Euroclear Sweden AB.

A valid resolution under this item requires the support of shareholders holding at least two-thirds (2/3) of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the meeting.
 
Item 8 – Resolution on authorisation for the board of directors to make minor adjustments to the resolutions adopted at the meeting
The board of directors proposes that the meeting authorises the board of directors, the CEO, or any person appointed by the board of directors or the CEO, to make such minor adjustments and clarifications to the resolutions adopted at the meeting to the extent necessary for the registration of the resolutions.
