Today, on 10 December 2021, an extraordinary general meeting was held in EQL Pharma AB. In light of the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic and in order to reduce the risk of infection spreading, the meeting was held only by advance voting (postal vote) in accordance with temporary legislation. A summary of the adopted resolutions follows below. All resolutions were adopted with the required majority of votes.

Resolution on implementation of a long-term incentive program

The meeting resolved in accordance with the proposal from the board of directors to implement a long-term incentive program for the company's Chief Operating Officer and Executive Vice President, as well as CEO-designate, based on issue of warrants. 

The incentive program shall comprise a maximum of 400,000 warrants. Each warrant entitles the right to subscribe for one new share in the company for a subscription price per share corresponding to 200 per cent of the volume weighted average price according to Spotlight Stock Market's official price list for shares in the company during ten trading days before the extraordinary general meeting on 10 December 2021. The warrants shall be issued to the fair market value of the warrants at the time of subscription, which shall be determined by an independent valuation institute in accordance with the Black & Scholes valuation formula. Subscription of shares by virtue of the warrants may be effected from and including 1 September 2025 to and including 30 September 2025.

In case all warrants issued in connection with the incentive program are exercised for subscription of new shares, a total of 400,000 new shares will be issued, which corresponds to a dilution of approximately 1.36 per cent of the company's share capital and votes after full dilution, calculated on the number of shares that will be added upon full utilization of all warrants issued under the incentive program.
