Long-term performance share based incentive plan (LTIP 2024) and transfer of own class B shares under LTIP 2024
The Meeting resolved in accordance with the Board's proposal to introduce a long-term performance share based incentive plan ("LTIP 2024"). LTIP 2024 comprises approximately 120 employees consisting of senior executives and other key employees. The participants are allocated performance based share rights, which provide the participant with a right to acquire class B shares. Following the defined vesting period, the participants will, free of charge, be allocated class B shares in Addnode Group provided that a performance target is fulfilled in relation to average annual growth of the company’s earnings per share. It is further required that the total shareholder return on the company's class B shares during the term of the program has been positive.

The maximum number of class B shares in Addnode Group which may be allocated under LTIP 2024 shall be limited to 138,000, which represents approximately 0.1 per cent of all outstanding shares in Addnode Group.

Allocation of class B shares in Addnode Group, if any, based on share rights shall normally occur within ten business days after the announcement of Addnode Group’s interim report for the period 1 January – 31 March 2027. The vesting period begins when an agreement is entered into to participate in LTIP 2024 and expires in connection with the publication of Addnode Group's interim report for the period 1 January – 31 March 2027.

The primary reason for implementing LTIP 2024 is to align the interests of the shareholders with the interests of the Executive Management and other key employees to ensure maximum long-term value creation. LTIP 2024 is also considered to facilitate Addnode Group’s recruitment and retention of senior executives and other key employees.

The Meeting also resolved to transfer not more than 138,000 own class B shares in Addnode Group to participants in the LTIP 2024 who under the terms for the LTIP 2024 are entitled to receive class B shares.

Repurchase offer regarding call options and approval of transfer of class B shares
At the Annual General Meeting in Addnode Group held on 6 May 2021, it was resolved to issue call options as part of the establishment of an incentive program for senior executives of the Addnode Group ("LTIP 2021"). The LTIP 2021 comprises a total of 195,800 call options (the "Call Options"), which are held by a total of 60 option holders (the "Option Holders") at the time of the notice convening the Annual General Meeting.

The Meeting resolved that in connection with the first exercise period for LTIP 2021, the company shall make an offer to the Option Holders to transfer Call Options to the company at a price corresponding to the net value that the Call Options would have resulted in for the Option Holders if the Call Options had been exercised at that time (the "Call Option Value"), and where consideration for the Call Options is paid in the form of class B shares in Addnode Group (the "Offer"). The company's interim report for the period 1 January-30 September 2024 is intended to be published on 24 October 2024, after which the Offer will be made.

Option Holders who do not accept the Offer may, without being affected by the Offer, exercise their Call Options for acquisition of class B shares during the acquisition periods in accordance with the terms and conditions applicable to the Call Options.

The Meeting further resolved to approve transfer of class B shares, which Addnode Group holds in treasury, to the participants in the Offer. The number of class B shares finally transferred and allocated is intended to be determined on the basis of the number of Call Options submitted in the Offer and the Call Option Value and the market value of the company’s class B share.

Authorization regarding acquisitions and transfer of own class B shares
The Meeting resolved in accordance with the Board's proposal to authorize the Board to resolve, on one or several occasions prior to the next Annual General Meeting, to acquire a maximum number of class B shares so that the company's holding following the acquisition does not exceed ten per cent of all the shares in the company at any time. Furthermore, the Meeting authorized the Board to resolve, on one or several occasions, prior to the next Annual General Meeting, to transfer class B shares in the company to a third party. The number of shares transferred may not exceed the total number of shares held by the company at any time. The reason for permitting the Board to deviate from the preferential rights of shareholders is primarily to enable financing of potential acquisitions of companies and other types of strategic investments in a cost-effective manner and to cover costs (including costs for social security contributions) arising from the implementation of Addnode Group's incentive programs from time to time.

The Meeting resolved in accordance with the Board's proposal to authorize the Board to resolve, on one or several occasions, prior to the next Annual General Meeting, with or without deviation from the preferential rights of shareholders, on a new issues of class B shares.

The authorization shall also encompass the right to decide on a new class B share issue stipulating payment in kind or that shares shall be subscribed for with right of set‐off or otherwise with conditions stipulated in Chapter 13, Section 7 of the Swedish Companies Act.
