RESOLUTIONS PROPOSED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Item 1. Election of chairman of the meeting
The board proposes that the lawyer Mats Dahlberg from Advokatfirman Delphi is elected as chairman of the annual general meeting.
Item 2. Preparation and approval of voting list
The voting list that is proposed for resolution is the voting list that will be prepared by the Company, based on the shareholders’ register prepared by Euroclear Sweden AB and postal votes received, verified and approved by persons approving the minutes.
Item 4. Election of one or two persons to approve the minutes
The board of directors proposes that one person is elected to verify the minutes and to elect a shareholder, or a shareholder represented by a proxy, that is not a board member or employed by the Company in accordance with Rule 1.4 of the Swedish Corporate Governance Code and who participates in person at the EGM.
Item 6. Resolution regarding authorization for the board of directors to decide on new issue and issue of warrants and/or convertible debentures
In the light of the financing arrangement based on convertible debentures entered into between the Company and Negma Group Ltd, the board of directors proposes that the EGM resolves on a new authorization for the board of directors to resolve on a new issue of shares as well as on the issue of warrants and/or convertible debentures as set out below. For further information on the financing arrangement, please see the press release published on 26 October 2022.
The board of directors proposes that the EGM resolves to authorize the board of directors to resolve, for the period until the end of the next annual general meeting, at one or more occasions and with or without deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights, to issue new shares, warrants and/or convertible debentures for cash payment and/or with provision of non-cash consideration or set-off or otherwise.
The number of shares, or warrants or convertible debentures that entitle subscription of a number of shares, that may be issued shall not exceed 20 per cent of the Company’s registered number of shares at the time of the board of director’s first resolution pursuant to the authorization. For subsequent resolutions pursuant to the authorization, the 20 per cent limit shall be based on (i) the number of shares issued pursuant to the authorization, and, with respect to warrants and convertible debentures issued pursuant to the authorization, (ii) the number of shares issued through subscription of issued warrants, and (iii) the number of shares issued through conversion of issued convertible debentures, provided that subscription/conversion of such warrants/convertible debentures have been completed.
The authorization thus allows the board of directors to take into account, for example in relation to convertible debentures, the number of shares actually issued rather than the number of shares that could be issued based on the lowest conversion price of the convertible debenture, provided that conversion of previously issued convertible debentures under the authorization have been completed. The lowest conversion price for convertible debentures needs to be included in the resolution for registration purposes.
Deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights shall be possible to, if needed, strengthen the Company’s financial position, broaden the ownership base and/or to increase the institutional ownership of the Company. New issue of shares and issue of warrants and/or convertible debentures shall, in the event of deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights, be made at market conditions.
This authorization replaces the current authorization resolved by the annual general meeting on 10 May 2022.
The board of directors, the CEO or the person appointed by the board of directors shall be entitled to make the minor adjustments of the decision required in connection with the registration thereof.
For the present resolution to be valid it is required that the proposal is approved by shareholders holding at least two-thirds (2/3) of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the general meeting.
SHARES AND VOTES
At the time of issuance of this notice, the total number of shares and votes in the Company amounts to 199,400,599. There is only one class of shares and the Company does not hold any treasury shares.
SHAREHOLDERS' RIGHT TO REQUEST INFORMATION
According to Chapter 7, Section 32 of the Companies Act, the board of directors and the CEO shall, if any shareholder so requests and the board of directors considers that this can be done without material damage to the Company, provide information on circumstances that may affect the assessment of an item on the agenda.
DOCUMENTATION
The board of directors’ complete proposal for resolution will be made available at the Company’s head office at the address Västra Trädgårdsgatan 15 in Stockholm not later than three weeks prior to the meeting and will be sent to the shareholders who so request and provide their postal address. The documentation will also be made available on the Company’s website, www.mendus.com, from the same date. All documentation mentioned above will also be presented at the general meeting.
Please note that this is a translation for information purposes only. In the event of any discrepancies between the Swedish and English versions, the Swedish version shall prevail.
