Item 6. Resolution regarding adoption of new articles of association

The board of directors proposes that the general meeting resolves to adopt new articles of association, whereby the CSD-registration provision is removed, and a post-transfer acquisition right is introduced, in accordance with the below.

Current wording § 14

CSD-registration provision

The shares in the company shall be recorded in a CSD register in accordance with the Swedish Central Securities Depositories and Financial Instruments (Accounts) Act of 1998 (Sw. lagen (1998:1479) om värdepapperscentraler och kontoföring av finansiella instrument).

Proposed wording § 14

Post-transfer acquisition right

In the event a share has been transferred to a new shareholder, Klima Energy Transition Fund FCR, Stiftelsen Industrifonden, Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken AB (publ) and EEI Fund 5 Innovation & Impact Investment Limited Partnership shall be entitled to purchase the share. The new shareholder shall immediately report the transfer of the share to the company’s board of directors in the manner prescribed in the Swedish Companies Act (post-transfer acquisition right).

The purchase may not be made for a fewer number of shares than those covered by the post-transfer acquisition right.

The board of directors shall immediately give notice of the post-transfer acquisition rights to each party with a known mailing address who is entitled to purchase the shares. The notice shall contain information regarding the time within which the notice of exercise of post-transfer acquisition rights must be presented.

Notice of exercise of post-transfer acquisition rights must be given within two months from the date of due notice of the post-transfer acquisition right in accordance with what is stated above. Where several parties entitled to exercise post-transfer acquisition rights give notice of intent to exercise said right, the shares shall, to the extent possible, be allocated among them in proportion to the number of shares in the company that they already hold. Any remaining shares shall be allocated by the drawing of lots executed by the board of directors.

Where the shares have been transferred through sale, the purchase price shall correspond to fifty (50) per cent of the purchase amount. No other conditions shall apply to the purchase.

Where the transferee and the party seeking to exercise post-transfer acquisition rights do not agree on the purchase, the party exercising post-transfer acquisition rights may commence legal proceedings within two months from the date on which the notice of exercise of post-transfer acquisition rights was given to the company’s board of directors.

The purchase price shall be paid within one month from the date on which the purchase price was determined.

Majority Requirement and authorisation

The resolution requires the support of all shareholders present at the meeting and that they together represent at least nine-tenths of all shares in the Company. Furthermore, a valid resolution requires that all parties holding security interests in the Company’s shares have given their written consent to the resolution.

It is proposed that each of Johan Ranstam and the Company’s CEO be authorised to make such minor amendments to the resolution as may be required in connection with the registration or execution of the resolution with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.

Number of shares and votes in the Company

The total number of shares and votes in the Company at the time of issuance of this notice is 4,831,789. The Company does not hold any of its own shares.

Shareholders’ right to request information

Pursuant to chapter 7, section 32 of the Swedish Companies Act (Sw. aktiebolagslagen (2005:551)) the board of directors and the CEO are under a duty to, if any shareholder so requests and the board of directors deems that it can be made without material damage to the Company, provide information regarding circumstances which may affect the assessment of a matter on the agenda.

Documentation
