Resolution on authorisation for the Board of Directors to resolve on acquisition and sale of own class B shares.

The Annual General Meeting resolved to authorise the Board of Directors to, on one or more occasions, during the time until the next Annual General Meeting, decide on:

a) acquisition of own class B shares on Nasdaq Stockholm (the ‘’Exchange’’). The acquisition of own share on the Exchange shall solely be at a price per share that lies within the registered share price range at that time, or in the event that the Board of Directors assigns an Exchange member to accumulate a specific amount of the Company’s shares in its own holding for a specific period, at a price per share within the price range at that time or corresponding volume‐weighted average share price. In total, acquisitions may be made of a maximum of so many shares that the Company's holding after the acquisition does not exceed 10 percent of the outstanding shares in the Company at any given time. The purpose of the authorisation for the acquisition of the Company’s own shares is to give the Board of Directors greater freedom of action and the ability to continuously adapt the Company's capital structure and thereby contribute to increased shareholder value while also enabling the Board of Directors to exploit attractive acquisition opportunities by fully or partially finance the acquisition of companies, business or assets and the Company’s at any given time LTI programme with the Company’s own shares.

(b) the transfer of not more than all of the Company's held shares over the Exchange and / or in any other way with or without deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights and with or without provision for compensation, set-off of the claim against the company or otherwise with conditions. Transfers of shares on the Exchange may only take place at a price per share that is within the quoted price range at any given time and if transfers take place in any other way, at a price that corresponds to the price in cash or the value of the property received that corresponds to the market price at the time for the transfer of the shares transferred with the deviation deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors. The purpose is to enable the best possible conditions for the company to be achieved, to give the Board increased scope for action in connection with the acquisition of companies, operations or assets.

Resolution on authorization for the Board to decide on a new share issue

The Annual General Meeting resolved to authorize the Board of Directors to, during the period until the next Annual General Meeting, on one or more occasions, resolve on a new issue of shares and / or issue of warrants and / or issue of convertibles with or without deviation from shareholders' preferential rights, set-off or otherwise with conditions. The purpose is to give the Board flexibility in the work of financing and enabling accelerated expansion and development of the Group, its market and products. The number of shares issued may amount to a maximum of 3,234,016 shares, which corresponds to a dilution of approximately ten percent of all shares in the company per day for convening the Annual General Meeting 2023.

Resolution on transfer of own shares to certain employees in accordance with LTI 2022

The Annual General Meeting resolved to transfer its own class B shares in accordance with terms and conditions of the LTI 2022. The Annual General Meeting 2022 decided to introduce a long-term incentive program ("LTI 2022"), in which the Company shall, provided that certain conditions are met, transfer own class B shares to the participants in the program, free of charge (“Matching Shares”). Therefore, the Annual General Meeting 2023 resolved to transfer a maximum of 75,000 own class B shares in Wästbygg Gruppen AB (publ). The right to acquire shares shall, with deviation from the shareholders' pre-emptive right, accrue to the participants in LTI 2022, with the right for each of the participants to acquire no more than the maximum number of shares according to the terms and conditions of LTI 2022. The reason for the deviation from the shareholders' pre-emptive right is to enable the delivery of Matching Shares to the participants in LTI 2022. Transfers of own class B shares must be free of charge, and shall take place at the applicable time according to the terms and conditions under the LTI, i.e. as a starting point within 30 days after publication of the year-end report for the financial year 2026. The participants' right to receive shares requires that all conditions under LTI 2022 are met. The number of shares that can be transferred may be subject to recalculation as a result of bonus share issue, share split and consolidation of shares, preferential issues and similar events.
