The Board of Directors proposes that the AGM resolves to authorise the Board of Directors to, on one or more occasions during the period up until the next AGM, resolve to issue new shares.

The number of shares to be issued by virtue of the authorisation shall not exceed 10 per cent of the registered share capital at the time of the resolution to issue new shares. The Board of Directors shall be entitled to determine other terms and conditions of the issue, including the issue price. In case of deviation from the shareholders' preferential right, the subscription price shall be determined in accordance with market conditions.

The purpose of the authorisation is to increase the company's financial flexibility.

The Board of Directors, or the person appointed by the Board of Directors, is authorised to make such minor adjustments to the resolution of the general meeting that may be necessary in connection with registration with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.
