Proposal of a new issue of stock options as an incentive program for new employees (item 11)
The Board proposes that the General Meeting decides to issue a maximum of 2.000.000 stock options 2022/2025.
The right to subscribe the stock options shall, deviating from the shareholders preferential right, be given to the fully owned subsidiary Serstech Förvaltning AB, with the right to transfer them to employees in Serstech in accordancewith the following.
The stock options shall primarily be offered in connection with new employment. Such transfer shall in Sweden bemade in exchange for payment equivalent to the theoretical market value at the time of the transfer, calculated with the Black & Scholes model. Any transfer outside of Sweden shall follow common terms and conditions for stock option offerings in that specific country.
Subscription of the stock options shall be made on subscription list by 31 May 2022. The stock options are transferredwithout renumeration. A stock option provides the holder with the right to purchase one share to the share price of160% of the average Serstech share price on the Nasdaq First North Growth Market during the period from 6 June2022 to 17 June 2022. The purchase of the above mentioned share shall be made during the time period of 1-10 June 2025.
If fully subscribed at the moment of the decision, the stock options according to the terms will increase the number ofshares and votes in the company by at the most 2,000,000, which is equivalent to approximately
2,2 % of the number of existing shares and votes. The dilution effect has been calculated as the number of addedshares when fully subscribed in relation to the number of shares after the full subscription. The proposal by the Boardis not considered to cause any additional dilution to the result per share. There is an existing stock option programesof3,200,000 options with the maturity date of 1-10 June 2022,and 1.300.000 options with the maturity date 1-10 June 2024 and the dilution effect previously mentioned is calculated assuming these options are fully subscribed.
The motivation for the proposal and the reason for deviating from the shareholder’s preferential rights is that thecompany estimate that it is positive for the company in the long term that new employees in the company areoffered a possibility to become stakeholders in the company via an incentive program.
The complete terms and conditions for the stock options will be disclosed in the full version of the proposal. Authorization in accordance with the proposal from the Board, including the approval of transfer of options from Serstech Förvaltning AB to employees in Serstech according to the above, is valid only if it is approved byshareholders representing at least nine out of ten parts of the votes as well as the shares represented at the general meeting.
The annual report and complete supporting documents (in Swedish) will be made available at the company address and on the company’s website, www.serstech.com, at least three weeks before the meeting and will be sent by mail to shareholders who so request and state their postal address.
