The major shareholders’ proposal regarding implementation of a long-term incentive program for certain board members (item 7)
The major shareholders of the company[1] propose that the general meeting resolves to implement a new long-term incentive program for certain board members through the issue of warrants (Board LTIP 2019/2023) as follows.
[1] Knut Claesson, Ehrnberg Solutions AB, SolvInvest AB, GU Ventures AB and Pontus Ryd, together holding shares representing approximately 56 percent of the shares and votes of the company.
Issue of warrants
The major shareholders propose that the general meeting resolves to issue not more than 92,105 warrants, whereupon the company’s share capital may be increased by not more than SEK 92,105.
The right to subscribe for the warrants shall, with deviation from the shareholders’ pre-emptive rights, only vest with the board members Jens Tommerup (58,183 warrants), Peter Laurits (29,092 warrants) and Charlotte Bergqvist (4,830 warrants). The price to be paid for the warrants shall correspond to the market value of the warrants, calculated pursuant to the Black & Scholes warrant valuation model.
Each warrant entitles to subscription for one new share in the company at a subscription price of SEK 260. Subscription for new shares by virtue of the warrants shall be made during the period from 1 July 2022 up to and including 30 June 2023.
Motives for the proposal
The motives for the proposal and the reason for the deviation from the shareholders’ pre-emptive rights are to align the financial interests of certain external board members with the interests of the company’s shareholders.
Dilution
Upon full exercise of the warrants at the terms and conditions applicable at the time of the resolution, the number of shares and votes in the company may be increased with 92,105, which corresponds to approximately 4,8 percent of the number of shares and votes, after full dilution.

The right to subscribe for the warrants shall, with deviation from the shareholders’ pre-emptive rights, only vest with the company’s wholly-owned subsidiary Seatwirl Options AB, which company thereafter shall sell the warrants to existing and future advisors, employees and consultants of the company as further set out below. The price to be paid for the warrants upon such transfer shall correspond to the market value of the warrants, calculated pursuant to the Black & Scholes warrant valuation model.
No holder shall be entitled to acquire more than 14,545 warrants. Each warrant entitles to subscription for one new share in the company at a subscription price of SEK 260.

Dilution
Upon full exercise of the warrants at the terms and conditions applicable at the time of the resolution, the number of shares and votes in the company may be increased with 58,180, which corresponds to approximately 3 percent of the number of shares and votes, after full dilution.
