No more than 300,000 warrants shall be issued to the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary Acconeer Incentive AB with the right and obligation for the subsidiary to later transfer the warrants to the Company's employees. The warrants shall be transferred by the subsidiary on 20 April 2020 and on 2 November 2020, the transfer shall be made at market value at the respective transfer dates and warrants shall be allotted in accordance with the principles set forth in the Board of Directors' proposal. Subscription of shares under the warrants may take place during the period from 1 May 2023 until 30 June 2023. The subscription price per share shall correspond to 120 per cent of the volume-weighted average price according to Nasdaq First North Growth Market's official price list for shares in the Company during the period from 31 March 2020 up to and including 13 April 2020. However, the subscription price per share shall never be less than the quotient value. The maximum dilution effect of the program is approximately 1.54 per cent.
- The AGM resolved to elect the registered audit company Öhrlings PricewaterhouseCoopers AB as the Company's auditor with the authorised auditor Ola Bjärehäll as the chief auditor.
- The AGM resolved to authorise the Board of Directors until the next AGM to, on one or more occasions, resolve to increase the Company's share capital by issue of no more than shares corresponding to twenty-five (25) per cent of the total number of shares in the Company at the time of the AGM's decision of authorisation. However, such issues may not cause the share capital in the Company to exceed the Company's highest allowed share capital according to the articles of association. The Board of Directors may deviate from the shareholders' preferential rights. The reason for the Board of Directors' authorisation to deviate from the shareholders' preferential rights is to enable the Company's possibilities to raise new capital and to take advantage of future opportunities to attract new long-term owners and to finance the Company's growth strategy. The authorisation also includes the right to decide on payment for the issued shares by set-off, in kind or with other conditions as referred in Chap. 13 Sec. 5 item 6 of the Swedish Companies Act (Sw. aktiebolagslagen (2005:551)). At a deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, the issue rate shall be determined in accordance with market conditions.
