Authorisation for the Board of Directors to decide on acquisition and transfer of own shares The Annual General Meeting resolved to authorise the Board of Directors to decide on the acquisition of own Class B shares subject to the following conditions: Acquisition may take place on Nasdaq Stockholm or in accordance with an acquisition offer to all shareholders. Acquisitions may take place of a maximum number of Class B shares such that the own holdings do not at any time exceed 10 per cent of all shares in the Company. Acquisitions of Class B shares on Nasdaq Stockholm may only take place at a price within the price interval registered at all times on Nasdaq Stockholm, which refers to the interval between the listed highest buy price and lowest sell price. Acquisitions in accordance with an acquisition offer shall take place at a price corresponding to the market price at the time of the offering at the lowest with a maximum deviation of a 20 per cent increase. This authorisation may be used on one or more occasions, although until the 2019 AGM at the longest.

The Annual General Meeting furthermore resolved to authorise the Board of Directors to decide on the transfer of own Class B shares subject to the following conditions: Transfer of Class B shares may only take place outside Nasdaq Stockholm, with or without preferential rights for the shareholders and with or without provisions in kind or a right of offset. Such transfer may take place at a price in money or value on received property that matches the market price at the time of the transfer on the shares transferred with the deviation that the Board finds suitable. The number of Class B shares that may be transferred shall amount to a maximum of 10 per cent of the total number of shares in the Company. Transfer in connection with business acquisition may take place at a market value assessed by the Board of Directors. This authorisation may be used on one or more occasions, although until the 2019 AGM at the longest.

The purpose of the above authorisation regarding acquisition and transfer of the Company’s own Class B shares is to enable financing of acquisition of operations by paying with the Company’s own shares and to be able to adapt the Company’s capital structure on an ongoing basis and thereby to contribute to increased shareholder value. Authorisation for the Board of Directors to decide on new share issues The Annual General Meeting resolved to authorise the Board of Directors until the next Annual General Meeting to decide to issue a maximum of 600,000 Class B shares, on one or more occasions and with or without deviation from the shareholder’s preferential rights. If fully exercised, the authorisation corresponds to a dilution of approximately 3.2 percent of the capital and approximately 1.7 percent of the votes.
