Nominee-registered shares
In order to be entitled to participate in the meeting, a shareholder who has his shares registered with a nominee must, in addition to giving notice of its intention to participate in the AGM, have the shares registered in his own name so that the shareholder is included in the share register on the record date on June 9, 2023. Such re-registration may be temporary (so-called voting rights registration) and is requested from the nominee according to the nominee's routines at such time in advance as the nominee decides. Registration of voting rights made by the nominee no later than June 13, 2023, will be taken into account in the presentation of the general meeting share register.

The notification must state the name, personal registration number or company registration number and number of shares. DNB Bank ASA will temporarily register the shares with Euroclear Sweden AB in the name of the shareholder. In addition, shareholders registered with Euronext Securities Oslo must give notice to the Company of their intention to participate according to the above in order to obtain voting rights at the AGM. Shareholders registered with Euronext Securities Oslo who have only given notice to the Company of their intention to participate may participate at the AGM without voting rights.
Proposed agenda
Kanoka invest AS (the “Shareholder”), who represent approximately 2,4 percent of the shares and votes in the Company, propose that the Annual General Meeting (“AGM”) resolves that, for the period until the next Annual General Meeting, the Chairman of the Board shall be remunerated with SEK 300,000 and other ordinary Board members shall be remunerated with SEK 175,000 each. It is proposed that the auditor be remunerated against an approved bill.
The Shareholder propose that the AGM resolves to, until the time of the next AGM, re-elect Hans Olav Torsen, Carl Eide and Helge Rushfeldt as ordinary Board members. The Shareholder further propose that the auditing company Frejs Revisorer AB be re-elected as the Company's auditor with the authorized public accountant Sébastien Argillet as the principal auditor.
Item 10 – Resolution regarding new articles of association
The board proposes that the general meeting decide to adopt new articles of association whereby the items listed below are proposed to be changed to the following wording.
§4. Share capital
The share capital must be a minimum of SEK 1,590,448 and a maximum of SEK 6,361,792.
§5. The number of shares
The number of shares must be a minimum of 42,800,000 and a maximum of 171,200,00.
The AGM’s resolution is valid only if it has been supported by shareholders holding not less than two-thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the meeting.
Item 11 – Resolution on adaption of an incentive program for certain key executives, employees and external key personnel
The Shareholder proposes that the AGM resolves on the adoption of a long- term incentive program for certain key executives, employees and external key personnel through a directed issue of warrants.
Background and incentive
The Shareholder considers that it is in the interest of the Company and the shareholders that certain key employees of the Company are involved in the Company’s development by being offered warrants within an incentive program. The Shareholder therefore submits the following proposal for resolution on an issue of warrants.
Proposal for resolution on the issue of warrants
The Shareholder proposes that the AGM resolves on the issue of a maximum of 800,000 warrants (2023/2027), entailing an increase of the share capital upon full exercise with a maximum of approximately SEK 29,728 (calculated on a quota value of SEK 0.037160 / share). Furthermore, the following conditions shall apply to the resolution.
The reason for the deviation is to create conditions for retaining competent people in the Group and to increase the motivation of such people. In light of the terms of the program and other circumstances, the Shareholder considers that the proposal is beneficial to the Company and its shareholders.
The resolution in this proposal requires the support of shareholders representing not less than nine tenths of the votes cast as well as the shares represented at the shareholders’ meeting.
Item 12 – Resolution regarding authorization for the board of directors to resolve upon the new issue of shares with deviation from the pre-emption rights of shareholders to certain lenders
The Board of Directors proposes that the AGM resolves to authorize the Board of Directors to, with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, until the time of the next AGM, on one or more occasions, resolves to issue new shares. Payment for shares issued with the support of the authorization must take place by set-off. The issue/issues shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of the convertible loan agreement of NOK 49.175 million that was disclosed July 5, 2022. The Board's decision on the issue of shares may result in a total increase in the number of shares in the Company by a maximum of 13,000,000 shares. Upon full utilization of the authorization, the dilution amounts to approximately 23.26 percent calculated on the current number of shares in the Company.
The AGM’s resolution is valid only if it has been supported by shareholders holding not less than two-thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the meeting.
Item 13 - Resolution regarding authorization for the board of directors to resolve upon the new issue of shares, warrants and/or convertibles with deviation from the pre-emption rights of shareholders

Payment can be made against cash payment and / or through payment in kind and / or through set-off. Issue in accordance with the authorization shall take place on market terms, subject to any market issue discount, which the Company's Board of Directors deems to prevail on each individual occasion. The Board's decision on the issue of shares, warrants and / or convertibles may result in a total increase in the number of shares in the Company by a maximum of 7,600,000 shares (in the event of full subscription with the support of such warrants and / or full conversion of such convertibles and before any recalculation according to the terms of the warrants and / or the convertibles). Upon full utilization of the authorization, the dilution amounts to approximately 15 percent calculated on the current number of shares in the Company.
The AGM’s resolution is valid only if it has been supported by shareholders holding not less than two-thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the meeting.
Item 14 - Resolution regarding authorization for the board of directors to resolve upon the new issue of shares, warrants and/or convertibles without deviation from the pre-emption rights of shareholders
