PROPOSALS FOR RESOLUTION

Item 7 – Resolutions to amend the articles of association and to reduce the share capital in order to enable the proposed issuance of units under item 8

General information regarding the board of directors’ proposal under item 7

To enable the execution of the board of directors’ resolution on an issuance of units in accordance with item 8, the board of directors proposes that resolutions be passed at the general meeting in respect of a share capital reduction and amendments to the limits of the share capital in the articles of association. The items 7 a) – b) are one proposal to be approved together in one resolution at the general meeting. A resolution in accordance with this item 7 is conditional upon that the meeting also resolves in accordance with item 8. A valid resolution requires that the resolution is supported by shareholders representing at least two thirds of the votes cast as well as of the shares represented at the extraordinary general meeting.

Item 7 a) – The board of directors’ proposal to amend § 4 of the articles of association

To enable the reduction of the share capital under item 7 b), the board of directors proposes that the general meeting resolves that the share capital limits in § 4 of the articles of association be amended as follows.

§ 4 in the articles of association is proposed to have the following wording.

Current wording

The share capital may not be less than SEK 25,000,000 and no more than SEK 100,000,000.

Proposed wording

The share capital may not be less than SEK 14,500,000 and no more than SEK 58,000,000.

Item 7 b) – The board of directors’ proposal to reduce the share capital

The board of directors proposes that the general meeting resolves on a reduction of the company’s share capital by SEK 21,956,434.80. The reduction shall be made without cancellation of shares. The reduction amount shall be allocated as non-restricted equity. The reduction is made in order to reduce the quota value of the shares to enable the issuance proposed under item 8. Following the reduction, the company’s share capital will amount to SEK 14,637,623.20 divided between 36,594,058 shares in total (prior to the issuance of units), each share having a quota value of SEK 0.40.

The board of directors’ statement pursuant to Chapter 20, Section 13, fourth paragraph of the Swedish Companies Act

The effect of the board of directors’ proposal is that the company’s share capital is reduced by SEK 21,956,434.80 from SEK 36,594,058 to SEK 14,637,623.20. The new issuance of units, pursuant to item 8, increases the share capital by up to SEK 29,275,246.40. By carrying out new issuance of units at the same time as the share capital reduction, the share capital increases by at least the reduction amount. The company may thus execute the reduction without approval from the Swedish Companies Registration Office or public court, since the measures taken together do not result in a decrease in the company’s restricted equity nor share capital.

Item 8 – Resolutions to amend the articles of association and on a issue of units with preferential rights for the company's shareholders

General information regarding the board of directors' proposals under item 8

To enable the registration of the resolution on an issuance of units under item 8 b) below, the board of directors proposes that the general meeting resolves that the limits to the share capital in § 4 and the number of shares in § 5 of the articles of association be amended.

The board of directors, the CEO, or anyone appointed by the board of directors or the CEO, shall be authorised to make such minor amendments to the above resolution as may be necessary in connection with the registration of the resolution with the Swedish Companies Registration Office or Euroclear Sweden AB or due to other formal requirements.

The items 8 a) – b) are one proposal to be approved together in one resolution at the general meeting. A resolution in accordance with this item 8 is conditional upon that the meeting also resolves in accordance with item 7.

A valid resolution requires that the resolution is supported by shareholders representing at least two thirds of the votes cast as well as of the shares represented at the extraordinary general meeting.

Item 8 a) – The board of directors' proposal to amend § 4 and § 5 of the articles of association

§ 4 in the articles of association is proposed to have the following wording.

The share capital may not be less than SEK 14,500,000 and no more than SEK 58,000,000.

Proposed wording

The share capital may not be less than SEK 33,600,000 and no more than SEK 134,400,000.

1. The price for each new share is SEK 0.40, the subscription price per unit thus amounts to SEK 0.80.

1. The warrants are issued without consideration. The terms and conditions for the warrants are available on the company's website.

1. The record date for participation in the new issue of units with preferential rights shall be 4 January 2024.

1. In the event that not all units are subscribed for with the support of unit rights, the board of directors shall, within the maximum amount of the new issue of units, resolve on the allotment of units to those who have subscribed for units without the support of unit rights in accordance with the following allotment principles:

• Firstly, allotment shall be made to those who have subscribed for units through unit rights, regardless of whether the subscriber was a shareholder on the record date or not, and in the event of oversubscription, in proportion to the number of unit rights each subscriber exercised for subscription and, to the extent this is not possible, by drawing lots.

• Secondly, allotment shall be made to others who have subscribed for units without the support of unit rights, and, in the event that they cannot receive full allotment, in proportion to the number of units each subscriber subscribed for and, to the extent this is not possible, by drawing lots.

• Thirdly and finally, any remaining units shall be allotted to the guarantors who have entered into guarantee commitments in proportion to the size of the guarantee commitment and, to the extent this is not possible, by drawing lots.

1. Subscription of units through unit rights shall take place through simultaneous cash payment during the period from 8 January 2024 to and including 22 January 2024. Subscription of units without the support of unit rights shall take place during the same period on a separate subscription list. Payment for units subscribed for without the support of unit rights must be made in cash no later than the second banking day after the settlement note showing the allotment of units has been sent out.

1. The board of directors shall be entitled to extend the subscription and payment period.

1. The new shares entitle the holder to a dividend for the first time on the record date for the dividend that occurs immediately after the registration of the new shares with the Swedish Companies Registration Office and the subsequent entry of the shares in the company's share register kept by Euroclear Sweden AB.

1. New shares issued as a result of exercise of the warrants of series TO4 and the warrants of series TO5 entitle the holder to a dividend for the first time on the record date for the dividend that occurs immediately after subscription has been executed.
2. It was noted that the board of directors has the right to resolve on payment by set-off in accordance with Chapter 13, Section 41 of the Swedish Companies Act.

The CEO or a person appointed by the CEO shall be authorised to make any minor adjustment required to register the resolution with the Swedish Companies Registration Office or Euroclear Sweden AB.

The remuneration shall be paid proportionally in relation to the duration of the mandate period each board member held the assignment.

The board of directors or the CEO shall have the right to make the minor adjustments in this resolution that may be necessary in connection with registration of the resolution with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.
