The Board's proposal on authorization for the Board to resolve on new share issues (item 15)
The Board proposes that the AGM resolves to authorize the Board to resolve on new issues of shares on the following terms and conditions:
1. The authorization may be exercised on one or several occasions up to the annual general meeting 2025.
2. Maximum 5,796,752 shares, corresponding to 10 per cent of the company's share capital, may be issued.
3. An issue may be made with or without deviation from the shareholders' preferential right.
4. An issue may be made against cash payment, by set-off or by contribution in kind.
5. The subscription price shall, at deviation from the shareholders' preferential right, be determined in accordance with market practice. The Board shall be entitled to determine other terms of the issue.
The purpose of the above authorization and the reason for the deviation from the shareholders' preferential right is to enable the company, by way of issues of new shares for payment in cash, in kind or through set-off, to strengthen the company's ability to carry out or finance company acquisitions, or to strengthen the company's capital base in connection therewith.
The Board, or anyone appointed by the Board, shall be authorized to make such minor adjustments of the resolution of the general meeting that may be necessary in connection with registration with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.
Majority requirements
Under the Swedish Companies Act, the resolution of the general meeting on authorization for the Board to resolve on new share issues requires the support of shareholders representing at least two-thirds of both the number of votes cast and the shares represented at the meeting in order to be valid.
The Board of Directors' proposal for resolution on a long-term incentive program including resolutions on (A) new issue of subscription warrants and (B) transfer of subscription warrants (item 16)
The Board of Directors of Inwido proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves on a long-term incentive program for senior executives and key employees including resolutions on (A) new issue of subscription warrants and (B) transfer of subscription warrants (the "Warrants Program 2024/2029"). The Warrants Program 2024/2029 is proposed to be principally carried out in accordance with what is stated below:
A. Issue of subscription warrants
1. A maximum of 250,000 subscription warrants shall be issued.
2. The right to subscribe for the subscription warrants shall, with deviation from the shareholders' preferential right, be granted to Inwido's wholly-owned subsidiary Inwido Europe AB, with a right and obligation for the subsidiary to transfer the subscription warrants to senior executives and key employees within the Inwido group in accordance with what is stated in section B below.
3. The subscription warrants shall be issued free of charge.
4. Subscription of the subscription warrants shall be made on a separate subscription list no later than on 3 June 2024, with a right for the Board to extend the subscription period.
5. Each subscription warrant shall entitle to subscribe for one (1) new share in the company.
6. Subscription of shares by virtue of the subscription warrants may be effected under the periods from and including 1 August 2027 up to and including 31 August 2027, from and including 15 February 2028 up to and including 28 February 2028, from and including 1 August 2028 to and including 31 August 2028, from and including 15 February 2029 up to and including 28 February 2029 and from and including 1 August 2029 up to and including 31 August 2029.
7. The subscription price per share shall correspond to 115 percent of the volume weighted average price according to Nasdaq Stockholm's official price list for the share in the company during the period from and including 17 May 2024 up to and including 23 May 2024. Any share premium shall be transferred to the unrestricted premium reserve.
In the absence of a settled price for any of the days in question, the quoted bid price for that day shall be included in the calculation. A day with neither a settled price or a quoted bid price shall be excluded from the calculation. The calculated subscription price shall be rounded to the nearest whole cent (Sw.öretal), whereby half a cent shall be rounded down.
8. Shares that have been issued by virtue of the subscription warrants, will entitle to dividends for the first time on the first record date for dividend occurring after subscription of shares through exercise of subscription warrants has been executed.
9. Applicable terms for re-calculation and other terms for the subscription warrants in the Warrants Program 2024/2029 are set forth in the "Terms and conditions for subscription warrants series 2024/2029 regarding subscription for shares in Inwido AB (publ)".
The Board, or anyone appointed by the Board, shall be authorized to make such minor adjustments in the resolutions of the Annual General Meeting, including appendices, that may be necessary in connection with registration with the Swedish Companies Registration Office and Euroclear Sweden AB.
The reasons for the deviation from the shareholders' preferential right are that the Board of Inwido considers that an incentive program which offers senior executives and certain key employees within the group the opportunity to take part of an increase in value of the Inwido share, leads to strengthened interest for the Company's profitability and share price performance and stimulates continued Company loyalty over the forthcoming years. An incentive program is also expected to contribute to the possibilities to recruit and retain competent, motivated and committed employees and, in the long run, the fulfillment of the Company's business strategy, long-term interests and sustainability.
As the Warrants Program 2024/2029 is resolved by the Annual General Meeting, the program is not comprised by Inwido's guidelines for remuneration to senior executives.
B.      Transfer of subscription warrants
Transfer of subscription warrants under the Warrants Program 2024/2029 shall principally be carried out in accordance with what is stated below.
1. The subscription warrants shall against payment be transferred by Inwido Europe AB, on one or several occasions, to employees within the Inwido group, in accordance with the guidelines stated below.
2. Transfer shall be made at market value at the time of transfer, which is to be established by Öhrlings PricewaterhouseCoopers AB, as an independent valuation institute, by application of the Black & Scholes valuation method. The valuation is based on a risk-free interest rate of 2.43 percent, an estimated volatility of 30 percent, the term of the subscription warrants, expected share dividends during the term of the subscription warrants, the current share price, and the subscription price for shares when exercising the subscription warrants (strike price).
3. Allotment of subscription warrants shall be made in accordance with the following guidelines:
+--------+-----------+----------------------------------------------------+
|Category|Position   |Number of subscription warrants                     |
+--------+-----------+----------------------------------------------------+
|I       |CEO        |a maximum of 25,000 subscription warrants           |
+--------+-----------+----------------------------------------------------+
|II      |Group      |a maximum of 10,000 subscription warrants per person|
|        |Management |                                                    |
|        |(6persons) |                                                    |
+--------+-----------+----------------------------------------------------+
|III     |Senior     |a maximum of 5,000 subscription warrants per person |
|        |Leaders    |                                                    |
|        |(33persons)|                                                    |
+--------+-----------+----------------------------------------------------+
The first allotment is expected to take place during May/June 2024, or as soon as administratively and legally possible. There will be no over-subscription.
4. The subscription warrants remaining after the first allotment may be allotted to future employees or to promoted employees at market value, applicable from time to time, in accordance with the allotment and valuation principles stated above. The reason why any future employees or promoted employees may be granted subscription warrants at such a time that the time between the allotment and the subscription period for shares may be less than three years, is that the Board deems it important that such employees, for the reasons applicable to Warrant Program 2024/2029 in general, are given the opportunity to take part in a value growth in Inwido's share already at the beginning of their employment. Transfer of subscription warrants may not take place after the Annual General Meeting 2025.
5. Right to initial allotment in the Warrants Program 2024/2029 requires that the employee on the allotment date at the latest holds its position or has signed an agreement regarding it and has not, at such time, informed or been informed that the employment will be terminated.
6. The subscription warrants are freely transferable. Upon acquisition of the subscription warrants, the subscription warrant holder shall enter into a warrant agreement on customary terms established by the Board, including provisions on pre-emption.
7. In order to encourage participation in the Warrant Program 2024/2029, a subsidy in the form of a gross salary increment corresponding to a maximum of 50 percent of the premium paid for each warrant will be received by the participants in connection with the transfer of the warrants. The subsidy will be paid out at the latest in connection with regular salary payments in June 2024. The board can, if deemed necessary in individual cases, decide on alternative payment dates, whereby the intention is that this will happen with regard to the payment of subsidies to any additional employees.
Participants in other jurisdictions
For participants in jurisdictions other than Sweden, it is implied that allotment and further transfer of the subscription warrants is legally possible and that it, in the Board's opinion, can be carried out with reasonable administrative and financial efforts at their established market value. The Board shall have the right to adjust the terms of the Warrant Program 2024/2029 to the extent required in order for issuance and allotment of subscription warrants to participants in other jurisdictions, to the extent practically possible, to be carried out under the same conditions imposed by the Warrant Program 2024/2029.
Costs, dilution etc.
The costs for the Warrant Program 2024/2029 mainly consist of the subsidy that may be paid in connection with the transfer of the warrants in accordance with above and the social security contributions that amount to this subsidy. The total cost of the subsidy, upon full subscription of the Warrant Program 2024/2029, is estimated at a maximum of approximately SEK 2.9[1] million before corporation tax over the duration of the program. The subsidy corresponds to the option premium of a total of approximately SEK 4.7[1] million that the Company receives upon the transfer of the warrants.
[[1]] Calculated on an option valuation that is based on an estimated volume-weighted average share price of SEK 144.
Otherwise, the Warrant Program 2024/2029 is estimated to entail limited costs of insignificant importance for the Company, mainly attributable to social security contributions for participants residing in countries other than Sweden.
Assuming that all 250,000 subscription warrants in the Warrants Program 2024/2029 are exercised for subscription of new shares, the Company's share capital will increase by no more than SEK 1,000,000, resulting in a maximum dilution effect equivalent to approximately 0.4 percent. Inwido already has two ongoing incentive programs, Warrant Program 2021/2026, which comprise 94 500 granted warrants and Warrants Program 2022/2028, which comprise 108,500 granted warrants, corresponding to a total dilution effect, for the two Warrant Programs, of approximately 0.4 percent. The warrant program 2023/2028, which was adopted at the annual general meeting 2023, was never launched as the management were registered as insiders during the notification period and thereafter due to a change of CEO, and thus no warrants have been issued under this program. In total, the Warrants Programs 2021/2026, 2022/2027 and 2024/2029 may entail a maximum dilution effect of approximately 0.8 percent.
The above is subject to re-calculations of the subscription warrants in accordance with the customary terms stated in the complete terms and conditions. All dilution effects have been calculated as the number of additional shares in each program in relation to the number of existing plus additional shares in each program.
In the event of full dilution as a result of the Warrants Program 2024/2029, the key figure earnings per share for the full year 2023 had been reduced by approximately SEK 0.05 from SEK 11.72 to SEK 11.67.
Preparation of the proposal
The Warrants Program 2024/2029 was initiated of the Board of the company and prepared in consultation with external advisors. The proposal from the Board has been prepared by the Remuneration Committee and by the Board in its entirety.
Majority requirements
The resolution of the general meeting in accordance with the Board's proposals under section A-B above is proposed to be adopted as one joint resolution. A valid resolution requires that shareholders representing at least nine tenths (9/10) of the votes cast and shares represented at the Annual General Meeting support the resolution.
Documents
The Nomination Committee's reasoned statement regarding its proposal for Board is available on the company's website, www.inwido.com. Financial statements, the auditor's report, other documents under item 7, the Board's report pursuant to Chapter 8, Section 53 a of the Swedish Companies Act and the Board's complete proposals for resolutions under items 15-16 will be available at the company's head office, Engelbrektsgatan 15, SE-211 33 Malmö, and on www.inwido.com, as from Thursday 25 April 2024 at the latest and will be sent free of charge to shareholders upon request and state their postal address.
Shares and votes
The total number of shares in the company amounts to 57,967,528. The company has only one series of shares and the total number of votes in the company amounts to 57,967,528. The company holds no own shares.
Information at the AGM
The Board and the CEO shall at the AGM, if any shareholder so requests and the Board believes that it can be done without material harm to the company, provide information regarding circumstances that may affect the assessment of an item on the agenda, circumstances that can affect the assessment of the company's or its subsidiaries' financial situation or the company's relation to other companies withing the group.
