Proposals for resolutions

Decision on allocation of results (8 b)

The Board of Directors proposes that available earnings of SEK 6,298,140 should be balanced in the new account. The Board thus proposes that no dividend be paid.

Decision on fees to the Board of Directors and auditors (9)

A group of major shareholders proposes that fees to the Board of Directors be paid in total SEK 600,000 for the full year (gross cost of the company) to be distributed to the Chairman of the Board by SEK 300,000, to the Board's Vice Chairman by SEK 150,000, and to the two other proposed Board members with SEK 75,000 each. The Board has the right to instruct individual board members to perform consulting services for the company. In special cases, board members elected by the AGM shall be able to be remunerated for services within their respective areas of expertise, which do not constitute board work. For these services, a market-based fee shall be paid, which shall be approved by the Board. It is proposed to the auditor that fees be paid in accordance with approved invoice.

Decision on election of the Board of Directors (10 a)

A group of major shareholders proposes that the number of board members elected by the AGM be four without deputies. For board members until the end of the next AGM, re-election of Pontus Ryd, Peter Laurits, Charlotte Bergqvist and Jens Tommerup is proposed.

Decision on election of auditor (10 b)

A group of major shareholders propose, in accordance with the Board's recommendation, re-election of the current auditor, registered accounting firm Ernst & Young AB, until the end of the next AGM. Ernst & Young AB has announced that the authorized public accountant Andreas Mast will be the main auditor in the event that Ernst & Young AB is re-elected as auditor. Furthermore, it is proposed that no deputy auditor should be appointed.

Decision to amend the Articles of Association (p. 11)

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves to amend the Articles of Association in accordance with the following.

In order to facilitate the holding of a General Meeting, the Board of Directors proposes that a provision on so-called pre-registration in the articles of association, which means that shareholders in order to attend the General Meeting must register with the company no later than the date stated in the notice of the meeting. The proposal thus entails introducing a new § 9 in the articles of association with the following wording:

'Shareholders who wish to participate in the negotiations at a General Meeting must be either included in printout or other presentation of the entire share register regarding the conditions five working days before the Meeting, and must notify their participation to the company no later than the date stated in the notice of the Meeting. The latter day must not be Sunday, other public holiday, Saturday, Midsummer Eve, Christmas Eve or New Year's Eve and must not fall earlier than the fifth working day before the Meeting. If the notice does not specify a deadline for the notification, the notification is not a requirement to the General Meeting.'

In addition to the above change, the Board of Directors proposes that the following editorial changes be made to the Articles of Association:

  • Due to the addition of a new § 9 (Right to attend the General Meeting), the numbering of the following § in the articles of association is adjusted.
  • The word 'company' in § 1 (Company) is changed to the word 'company name'.
  • The word 'general meeting' in the heading of new § 10 (Opening of general meeting) is changed to the word 'annual general meeting'.
  • The word 'adjuster men' in new § 11 paragraph 3 is changed to the word 'protocol adjuster'.
  • Ordet 'justeringsmän' i nya § 11 punkten 3 ändras till ordet 'protokolljusterare'.
  • In new § 11, paragraph 7 (a), the following supplement is made 'and, if applicable,consolidated income statement and consolidated balance sheet'.
  • In new § 11, paragraph 9 (b), 'auditors and any deputy auditor' is replaced by 'auditor and any deputy auditor' in the light of the fact that in § 7 (Auditor) it is stated that the company must have only one auditor with or without a deputy auditor.
  • New § 13 (Reconciliation reservation) is amended because of a change in the name of the Act (1998: 1479) on the accounting of financial instruments, whereby the Act (1998: 1479) on central securities depositories and the accounting of financial instruments is introduced in new § 13.

For resolutions in accordance with this paragraph, support is required from shareholders representing at least 2/3 of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the meeting.

Resolution on authorization for the Board to decide on the issue of shares, warrants and/or convertibles (12)
The Board of Directors proposes that the Meeting authorizes the Board to, with or without deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights and on one or more occasions during the period until the next Annual General Meeting, make decisions on the issue of shares, warrants and/or convertibles. Any issues that occur with deviation from the shareholders' preferential right shall be made at market based subscription price, subject to a market based discount if applicable, and payment, in addition to cash payment, may be made by means of set-aside or through set-off, or otherwise with conditions. If the Board considers it appropriate to enable the delivery of shares in connection with an issue pursuant to the authorization, this can be done at a subscription price corresponding to the share's quota value.

The number of shares, warrants and convertibles that can be issued must not be limited in any way other than as follows from the Articles of Association at the time applicable limits on the share capital and the number of shares.

The reason for any deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights is that issues should be possible to broaden the ownership of the company, primarily to owners with expertise in offshore and wind power and with a strong financial position. The reason for any deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights may also be that the Board, for time and cost reasons, judged that a directed share issue is more appropriate than a rights issue. The issue proceeds will be used to finance the company's operations, commercialization and development of the company's products and markets and/or acquisition of operations, companies or part of companies.

The Board of Directors, the CEO or the one appointed by Board shall be authorized to make such minor adjustments and clarifications of the Meeting's resolutions as may prove necessary in connection with the registration with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.

For resolutions in accordance with this paragraph, support is required from shareholders representing at least 2/3 of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the meeting.
