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:
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 AB (publ) (”Inwido” or the ”Company”) 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 2023/2028”). The Warrants Program 2023/2028 is proposed to be principally carried out in accordance with what is stated below:
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.
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 2023/2028 is resolved by the Annual General Meeting, the program is not comprised by Inwido’s guidelines for remuneration to senior executives.
Transfer of subscription warrants under the Warrants Program 2023/2028 shall principally be carried out in accordance with what is stated below.
| Category | Position | Number of subscription warrants |
| I | CEO | a maximum of 25,000 subscription warrants |
| II | Group Management (6 persons) | a maximum of 10,000 subscription warrants per person |
| III | Senior Leaders (18 persons) | a maximum of 5,000 subscription warrants per person |
The first allotment is expected to take place during May/June 2023, or as soon as administratively and legally possible. There will be no over-subscription.
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 2023/2028 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 2023/2028.
Costs, dilution etc.
The Warrant Program 2023/2028 is expected 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 175,000 subscription warrants in the Warrants Program 2023/2028 are exercised for subscription of new shares, the Company’s share capital will increase by no more than SEK 700,000, resulting in a maximum dilution effect equivalent to approximately 0.3 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 a maximum of 160,000 new shares in Inwido, corresponding to a total dilution effect, for the two Warrant Programs, of approximately 0.4 percent. In total, the Warrants Programs 2021/2026, 2022/2027 and 2023/2028 may entail a maximum dilution effect of approximately 0.7 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 2023/2028, the key figure earnings per share for the full year 2022 had been reduced by approximately SEK 0.04 from SEK 13.74 to SEK 13.70.
Preparation of the proposal
The Warrants Program 2023/2028 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 requirement
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 13 April 2023 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
