The Board of Directors’ proposal for a resolution to issue warrants as well as a resolution regarding transfer of warrants (item 6)
The Board of Directors proposes that the Company issue not more than 300,000 warrants. By way of derogation from the shareholders’ pre-emption rights, the right to subscribe for warrants shall vest in the Company’s subsidiary, Odd Molly Sverige AB, reg. no. 556953-9066 (the “Subsidiary”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, with a right and obligation for the Company to transfer the warrants to certain executives of the Company.
The warrants will be issued to the Subsidiary for no consideration and the Subsidiary will subscribe for the warrants on a separate subscription list on 24 February 2016.
The right to acquire warrants from the Subsidiary will vest in the CEO and the vice president. The maximum number of warrants per employee in each category is 150,000 warrants.
Persons entitled to acquire warrants will be entitled to subscribe for warrants in posts corresponding either to the maximum number of warrants which are offered or reduced by posts of 10,000 warrants.
Allotment is not guaranteed and is conditional on: (1) the acquisition of warrants being legal; (2) the Board of Directors determining that it can take place with reasonable administrative and financial efforts. The right to participate in the option programme is further conditional on the executive not having been given notice of termination or not having been terminated from their position in the group and the executive entering into a three-year agreement regarding an obligation to offer the Subsidiary a right of first refusal for the options before the options are transferred to a third party and a right for the Subsidiary to acquire the options at market value should the executive’s employment end. The Board of Directors will make a final resolution regarding allotment and execute allotment within the aforementioned parameters.
In the event all warrants are not acquired, any remaining warrants will continue to be held by the Subsidiary and, in accordance with the Board of Directors’ resolution, will be transferred to any individuals who, in the future, are recruited to company management. In the event of any such future transfer, the price will also be established as the market value at the time of the transfer.
The warrants will be sold on market terms at a price which is established based on a calculated market value for the warrants, applying the Black & Scholes valuation model calculated by the independent valuation institute, KPMG AB. The sales price will be established on 23 February 2016 following the conclusion of trading in the Company’s shares on Nasdaq Stockholm. Allotted warrants will be paid for in cash as soon as possible after confirmation of allotment.
Each warrant will confer upon the holder the right to subscribe for one new share in the Company during the period commencing 1 January 2019, up to and including 31 January 2019. The subscription price will be an amount corresponding to 120 per cent of the listed volume-weighted average price paid for shares in the Company on Nasdaq Stockholm during the period commencing 10 February 2016, up to and including 23 February 2016. In the event of full exercise of the warrants, the Company’s share capital will be increased to not more than SEK 30,000, corresponding to dilution of: (i) approximately 4.88 per cent of the total number of shares in the Company and approximately 4.88 per cent of the total number of votes in the Company if all of the warrants issued in 2014 are exercised for subscription of shares in the Company; and (ii) approximately 4.96 per cent of the total number of shares in the Company and approximately 4.96 per cent of the total number of votes in the Company if none of the warrants issued in 2014 are exercised for subscription of shares in the Company.
