Section 13, decision on directed issue of warrants and on approval of transfer of warrants (incentive program for senior executives and other co-workers)

The board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting resolves on a directed issue of warrants and on approval of the transfer of warrants as follows.

A. Issue of warrants

The board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting resolves on a directed issue of a maximum of 530,000 warrants, entailing an increase of the share capital - upon full exercise of the warrants - by a maximum of SEK 61,350.76. Each warrant entitles the holder to subscribe for one (1) class B share in the company. For the decision, the following conditions shall apply.

(i) The right to subscribe for the warrants shall, with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, accrue to the company's wholly-owned subsidiary Finshyttan Hydropower AB (the "Subsidiary"). The Subsidiary shall transfer warrants to senior executives and other co-workers in accordance with section B below.

(ii) Oversubscription cannot take place.

(iii) The reason for the deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights is to introduce an incentive program for senior executives and other co-workers.

(iv) The warrants are issued free of charge to the Subsidiary.

(v) Subscription of the warrants shall take place no later than 12 May 2021. The board of directors has the right to extend the subscription period.

(vi) Subscription of class B shares in the company through the exercise of the warrants shall take place during the period from and including 3 June 2024 up to and including 2 July 2024.

(vii) The subscription price per class B share shall correspond to 200 percent of the volume-weighted average price according to Nasdaq First North Growth Market's official price list for the share during the period of ten trading days immediately after 12 May 2021, which means that said period will be 14 May 2021 up to and including 27 May 2021. The part of the subscription price that exceeds the share's quota value shall be added to the unrestricted share premium reserve.

(viii) Class B shares acquired due to subscription by exercising the warrants entitle to a dividend for the first time on the record date for dividends that falls immediately after the shares have been registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office and entered in the company's share register with Euroclear Sweden AB.

(ix) Warrants held by the Subsidiary and which have not been transferred in accordance with section B below or which have been repurchased from participants may be cancelled by the company following a decision by the company's board of directors. Cancellation must be registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.

(x) Other terms for the warrants will be available at the company from Friday, 26 March 2021, and will be sent by post to the shareholders who so request and state their postal address.

B. Approval of transfer of warrants

The board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting approve the Subsidiary's transfer of warrants on the following terms.

(i) The following categories of senior executives and other co-workers who are employed or hired on a consultancy basis in the group (the "Participants" and each the "Participant") shall have the right to acquire warrants from the Subsidiary:

Category

Maximum number of warrants per category

CEO

50 000

Other senior executives in the company

80 000

Other co-workers

400 000

The detailed distribution of warrants and who is to be offered to acquire these shall be decided by the company's board of directors.

(ii) The right to acquire warrants shall only accrue to Participants who at the end of the application period have not resigned or been terminated from the employment or consulting assignment.

(iii) It shall also be possible to offer warrants to future new co-workers. For such acquisitions, the terms shall be the same or equivalent to the terms in the board's proposal. This means, among other things, that acquisitions must take place at the then-current market value.

(iv) Transfer to Participants presupposes that the transfer of the warrants can be made legally and that, according to the board's assessment, can be made with reasonable administrative and financial efforts.

(v) The warrants shall be transferred on market conditions at a price determined on the basis of an estimated market value of the warrants using the Black & Scholes valuation model. For acquisitions made by new senior executives and other co-workers after the end of the initial application period, a new market price shall be determined in a corresponding manner.

(vi) Application of acquisition of warrants shall be made no later than 31 May 2021. The board of directors shall have the right to extend the time for application of acquisition.

(vii) The warrants shall otherwise be covered by market conditions, including a right to repurchase the warrants if the Participant's employment or consulting assignment in the group terminates.

C. Further information about the warrant program

(i) The reasons for the proposal, etc.

The motives for the proposal are that senior executives and other co-workers, through their own investment, shall work for and take part in a positive value development of the company and its shares and that the company shall be able to retain and recruit competent and committed staff. The program will promote long-term commitment among the co-workers in order to create sustainable value for the company and shareholders. No predetermined and measurable criteria for allocation in the program have been set since participation in the program takes place through own investment.

(ii) Dilution

Upon full exercise of all warrants, 530,000 new class B shares will be issued. Subject to the recalculation of the number of shares that each warrant entitles to subscribe for that may occur as a result of certain events in accordance with the terms of the warrants referred to in section A (x) above, the new shares will result in a dilution of approximately 0.9 percent of the total number of shares in the company at the time of the board's proposal and approximately 0.9 percent of the total number of votes in the company at the time of the board's proposal.

(iii) Impact on key figures and costs for the company, etc.

The company's result per share will not be affected by the issue as the present value of the warrants' exercise price exceeds the current market value of the company's class B share at the time of the issue. The company's future earnings per share may be affected by the potential dilution effect of the warrants if the company reports both a positive result and an exercise price below the market value. The participants will acquire the warrants at market value, which means that no benefit value arises and thus no social fees for the company. The warrant program will incur certain limited costs in the form of external consultant fees and administration costs.

(iv) Calculation of the market value of the warrants

Optionspartner AB will make a calculation of the market value of the warrants at the time the warrants are to be acquired by the Participants. The market value will be calculated according to Black & Scholes' valuation model, which takes into account the current value of the underlying share, the exercise price, the term of the warrant, risk-free interest rate, and the share's volatility. According to a preliminary calculation of the warrants' market value based on conditions as of 17 March 2021, the market value amounts to SEK 8.68 per warrant. Given that the market value is not to be determined until the time the warrants are to be acquired by the Participants, the market value per warrant may differ from the amount now stated.

(v) Preparation of the matter

The principles for the program have been developed by the company's board of directors. The proposal has been prepared with the support of external advisors and after consultation with certain major shareholders. The board has subsequently decided to present this proposal to the annual general meeting. Apart from co-workers who prepared the matter in accordance with instructions from the board, no co-worker who may be covered by the program participated in the drafting of the terms and conditions.

(vi) Other share-based incentive programs

The company has the following three outstanding share-based incentive programs.

1) Program 2019/2022 for senior executives and other co-workers - The incentive program was approved by the annual general meeting on 11 April 2019 and covered 800,000 warrants, of which 658,000 warrants have been acquired by senior executives and other co-workers. Subject to the recalculation of the number of shares that each warrant entitles to subscribe for that may occur as a result of certain events in accordance with the terms of the warrants, the 658,000 warrants entitle the participants to subscribe for the same number of class B shares in the company at a subscription price of SEK 14,46 per share during the period from and including 20 June 2022 up to and including 18 July 2022.

2) Program 2020/2023 for senior executives and other co-workers - The incentive program was approved by the annual general meeting on 16 April 2020 and covered 450,000 warrants, of which 223,200 warrants have been acquired by senior executives and other co-workers. Subject to the recalculation of the number of shares that each warrant entitles to subscribe for that may occur as a result of certain events in accordance with the terms of the warrants, the 223,200 warrants entitle the participants to subscribe for the same number of class B shares in the company at a subscription price of SEK 37,19 per share during the period from and including 1 June 2023 up to and including 30 June 2023.

3) Program 2020/2024 for board members - The incentive program was approved by the annual general meeting on 16 April 2020 and covered 450,000 warrants, of which 375,000 warrants have been acquired by board members of the company. Subject to the recalculation of the number of shares that each warrant entitles to subscribe for that may occur as a result of certain events in accordance with the terms of the warrants, the 375,000 warrants entitle the participants to subscribe for the same number of class B shares in the company at a subscription price of SEK 37,19 per share during the period from and including 1 June 2024 up to and including 30 June 2024.

Full subscription of shares by exercising the warrants that have been acquired by senior executives and other co-workers as well as board members in accordance with the above entails a dilution of approximately two (2) percent of the total number of shares in the company at the time of the board's proposal and approximately two (2) percent of the total number of votes in the company at the time of the board's proposal. This calculation does not include the shares that may be issued through the exercise of the warrants covered by the incentive program in accordance with this section 13.

D. Authorizations and majority requirements

The board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting instructs the board of directors to execute the resolution in accordance with section A above and to ensure that the board of directors of the Subsidiary implements the transfer of warrants in accordance with section B above.

Furthermore, the board proposes that the board, or the person appointed by the board, shall have the right to make minor changes to the annual general meeting's decision which may be required in connection with registration with the Swedish Companies Registration Office or for other administrative reasons.

The resolution of the annual general meeting in accordance with this section 13 requires, for its validity, that it is supported by shareholders representing at least nine-tenths of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the annual general meeting.

Section 14, decision on authorizing the board of directors to decide upon issue of shares, warrants, and/or convertibles

The board proposes that the annual general meeting authorizes the board to decide upon the issue of shares, warrants, and/or convertibles until the next annual general meeting and within the limits of the articles of association, on one or more occasions, with or without deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights. The issue may be made against cash payment, issue in kind and/or set-off, or otherwise be combined with conditions.

Decisions on issues under the authorization with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights may lead to an increase in the company's share capital by a maximum of 20 percent, calculated on the size of the share capital the first time the authorization is used.

Furthermore, the board proposes that the board, or the person appointed by the board, shall have the right to make minor changes to the annual general meeting's decision which may be required in connection with registration with the Swedish Companies Registration Office or for other administrative reasons.

Section 15, decision to amend the articles of association
