Proposals to resolutions
Item 1 – Election of chairman of the general meeting
The nomination committee proposes that Mattias Prage, lawyer at Advokatfirman Lindahl KB, is elected as chairman of the general meeting or, in his absence, the person otherwise appointed by the board of directors.
Item 6 – Resolution on the approval of the board of directors’ resolution on a directed share issue
On 27 September 2024 the board resolved, subject to approval by the general meeting, on a directed share issue on the terms and conditions set out below (in italics). The board proposes that the general meeting approves the board’s resolution.
Subject to approval by the extraordinary general meeting, the board of directors of Senzime AB (publ), corp. reg. no. 556565-5734 (the “Company”) resolves to carry out a directed issue of maximum 1,104,000 new shares, entailing an increase in the share capital of maximum SEK 138,000. The resolution shall further be governed by the following terms and conditions.
- The right to subscribe for new shares shall, with deviation from the shareholders pre-emption rights, belong only to the following persons and in accordance with the specified allocation
Name | Number of shares |
Adam Dahlberg | 700,000 |
Sorin J. Brull | 404,000 |
- The reasons for deviating from the shareholders’ preferential rights are that the board of directors has assessed that it would not be doable to in a time- and cost-effective manner successfully carry out rights issue on terms favorable to the Company, at the same time as the Company is in need of capital. The board of directors considers it favorable for the Company and the shareholders to take advantage of the opportunity to inject new capital from strong and reputable investors on attractive terms and in a time and cost-effective manner. The board of directors’ overall assessment is that the reasons for carrying out the new share issue with deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights overweigh the principal rule that new share issues shall be carried out with preferential rights for existing shareholders, and that a new issue with deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights is therefore in the interest of the Company and its shareholders.
- Subscription of shares shall be made either by payment or on a subscription list not later than October 28, 2024. The board of directors shall have the right to extend the subscription period.
- Payment for subscribed shares shall be made not later than October 28, 2024 (same date as the subscription). The board of directors shall have the right to extend the payment period.
- The new shares are issued at a price of SEK 6.20 per share. At full subscription, the Company will thus receive SEK 6,844,800 (before issuing costs). The share premium shall be transferred to the unrestricted premium reserve.
- The subscription price corresponds to the price used at re-transfer to investors pursuant to the resolution to issueshares in Appendix 3. The board of director’s assessment is that the price is at market terms, since it is based on the market price at the time of the board’s resolution.
- The new shares entitle to dividends for the first time on the first record date for dividend that take place after the issue of new shares has been registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office and been recorded in the share register kept by Euroclear Sweden AB.
- The Managing Director is entitled to make any minor changes necessary for the registration of the resolution with the Swedish Companies Registration Office and Euroclear Sweden AB.
