Resolution regarding authorisation for the board of directors to resolve on directed new issue of shares

The right to subscribe for shares shall, with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, only be granted to Formue Nord Fokus A/S ("Formue Nord").

The number of shares that may be issued shall in total amount to a maximum of 1,279,754 new shares (corresponding to a reduced shareholding for non-participating shareholders (dilution) amounting to approximately 2.4 per cent or an increase of the existing number of outstanding shares by approximately 2.5 per cent). The issues shall be made at a subscription price of SEK 7.814 per share. Payment for the shares shall be made through set-off of claims on the company.

The authorisation may only be used for the purpose of ensuring that the company fulfils its obligations according to the loan agreement with Formue Nord.

The reason for the deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights is to ensure that the company fulfils its obligations according to the loan agreement with Formue Nord, pursuant to which Formue Nord shall be entitled to set-off up to SEK 10 million of the loan against shares of series A in the company. The basis for the subscription price is the terms and conditions agreed by the company and Formue Nord in the relevant loan agreement and corresponds to 130 per cent of the volume-weighted average price of the company's shares of series A during the ten trading days preceding the date of signing of the loan agreement. The board of directors has assessed the terms and conditions of the loan agreement as market-based.

Resolution regarding authorisation for the board of directors to resolve on new issue of shares and/or warrants and/or convertibles;

The Annual General Meeting authorised the board of directors to, on one or several occasions during the period until the next Annual General Meeting, resolve on new issue of shares of series A and/or warrants entitle to subscription of series A and/or convertibles entitling to conversion to shares of series A for payment in cash and/or with terms regarding issue in kind, payment by set-off, or otherwise with terms and thereby be able to deviate from the shareholders' preferential right.

The issues shall be made on market-based subscription price determined by the board of directors in consultation with the company's financial advisers, if any, taking into consideration market-based issue-discount, where applicable.

The number of shares that may be issued, the number of shares subscribed for based on the warrants, and the number of shares that convertibles shall entitle conversion to, respectively, by virtue of the authorisation shall in total amount to a maximum of 10,373,680 new shares (corresponding to a reduced shareholding for non-participating shareholders (dilution) amounting to approximately 16.7 per cent or an increase of the existing number of outstanding shares by approximately 20 per cent).

The purpose of the authorisation and the reason to deviate from the preferential right of the shareholders is that issues shall be possible to be made for financing the company's business, commercialisation and development of the company's products and markets, and/or acquisition of businesses, companies, or parts of companies, and/or enable a broadening of the owner base of the company.

For the avoidance of doubt, the authorisation may not be used for directed issues to directors or employees of the company or its subsidiaries.
