  8. It was resolved to authorize the Board of Directors to, on one or several occasions during the period up until the next Annual General Meeting, resolve on one or more issues of shares, warrants and/or convertible instruments. The Board of Directors shall be authorized to adopt decisions on an issue of shares, warrants and/or convertible instruments with or without deviation from the shareholders’ pre-emption rights. The issue resolution may be an issue in kind or an issue by way of set-off and/or on such terms and conditions as referred to in Chapter 2, Section 5, second paragraph, points 1-3 and 5, of the Swedish Companies Act. The new shares, warrants and/or convertible instruments shall, in the event of a deviation from the shareholders’ pre-emption rights, be issued at a subscription price based on the share price at the time of the issue (or in case of warrants or convertibles, with the share price as basis for a market valuation), decreased by any discount in line with market practice that the Board of Directors deems necessary. All other terms are decided by the Board of Directors, but shall be in line with market practice. A maximum of 89,673,909 shares, which corresponds to twenty percent of the total number of outstanding shares in the company at the time of the Annual General Meeting, may be issued under the authorization (including any new shares following the exercise or conversion of warrants and convertible instruments issued under the authorization).
  9. It was resolved to adopt an incentive scheme for senior executives. The incentive scheme consists of up to 400,000 employee stock options which can be exercised with so called vesting terms during a period of 36 months from the grant of employee stock options up to and including 12 months thereafter. Each employee stock option entitles the holder to purchase one share in the company at a price equal to 150 per cent of the volume-weighted average price of the company’s share on Nasdaq Stockholm during the two-week period prior to allotment. The right to be allotted employee stock option shall be vested with senior executives recruited during 2020. The employee stock options are issued free of charge. The Board of Directors, or a remuneration committee appointed within the Board of Directors, shall be responsible for preparing the detailed terms and conditions of the incentive scheme, in accordance with the above-mentioned terms and guidelines. In relation thereto, the Board of Directors shall be entitled to make adjustments in order to fulfil specific regulations and market conditions abroad. The Board of Directors also reserves the right to make adjustments in the incentive scheme in the event there are significant changes in the company or in its environment which would mean that the conditions for exercising the options no longer are appropriate.
