• that attorney-at-law Erik Sjöman is elected chairman of the annual general meeting;

SEK 50,000 shall be distributed to the chairman of the remuneration committee and SEK 25,000 to each of the other members of the committee.

The proposal regarding the auditor is in accordance with the audit committee’s recommendation.

Guidelines for remuneration to senior executives (item 13)
The board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting resolves to adopt guidelines for remuneration to senior executives principally entailing that the company shall offer a competitive remuneration in order to be able to recruit and retain qualified personnel who are working to achieve the maximum level of shareholder and customer value. The remuneration to the executive management may consist of the following components: base cash salary, variable cash remuneration, pension benefits and other benefits.

The base cash salary shall be individual and relate to the relevant person’s responsibilities, role, competence and position. The variable cash remuneration may for the CEO amount to not more than 30 per cent of the total fixed annual cash salary. For other senior executives the variable cash remuneration may amount to not more than 20 per cent of the total fixed annual cash salary. Variable cash remuneration may qualify for pension benefits if mandatory under applicable collective agreement provisions.

Variable cash remuneration shall be linked to predetermined and measurable criteria, which can be financial or non-financial, designed to contribute to the company’s long-term value creation. The criteria shall relate to the development of Cantargia’s projects and the partnerships the company enters into for acceleration of the clinical development and future commercialization, as well as the remuneration (such as upfront fees when the agreement is entered into, milestone payments or royalties) resulting from this development. Furthermore, the criteria shall be designed so as to contribute to Cantargia’s business strategy and long-term interests, including its sustainability.

Pension benefits shall be premium defined unless the individual concerned is subject to defined benefit pension under mandatory collective agreement provisions. The pension premiums for premium defined pension shall amount to not more than 35 per cent of the fixed annual cash salary.

Other benefits may include, for example, health care insurances and health services. Such benefits shall be of limited value in relation to other compensation and shall correspond to customary market terms in each geographic market. Other benefits may amount to not more than 10 per cent of the annual base cash salary.

The board of directors may temporarily resolve to derogate from the guidelines, in whole or in part, if in a specific case there is special cause for the derogation and a derogation is necessary to serve Cantargia’s long-term interests, including its sustainability, or to ensure Cantargia’s financial viability.

Share based incentive scheme (item 14)
The board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting resolves to adopt a long-term variable share-based incentive scheme for senior executives and key personnel within the company. The proposal is based on the incentive schemes that were adopted by the 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023 annual general meetings. It has been initiated by Cantargia’s board of directors and has been designed in collaboration with external advisors and prepared by the remuneration committee and examined at board meetings.

Purpose and scope of the scheme
To create a long-term incentive for the company’s management team and to promote investments in and ownership of Cantargia shares, all members of the company’s management team, including the CEO, as well as other key personnel will be offered variable long-term remuneration in the form of a group bonus for acquisition of shares of the company (the “Scheme”). The Scheme is a variable long-term remuneration scheme under which the participants commit to use distributed variable cash remuneration to acquire shares in the company. The participants will acquire the shares on the stock market. The Scheme applies in addition to any variable remuneration in accordance with the remuneration guidelines proposed to be adopted at the 2024 annual general meeting. It is intended that the Scheme shall be annually recurring.

The maximum pay-out to each Scheme participant for 2024 is capped at 10 per cent of the participant’s annual base cash salary. The total size of the Scheme for 2024 is capped at SEK 2,500,000, excluding social security contributions. In case of partial target achievement, a portion of the maximum amount will be distributed.

Performance requirements and target achievement
The Scheme is based on the annual bonus target or targets set up by the company’s board of directors and that refer to the company’s activities, financial key performance indicators and sustainable development. The resolution on the annual amount available under the Scheme will be integrated in the annual evaluation process for the total variable remuneration in order to link annual performances to long term targets, to increase employee shareholding in Cantargia and to retain competent staff at competitive terms.

Target achievement will be assessed by the company’s board of directors in connection with the adoption of the annual report for each year. To be entitled to a portion of the group bonus for acquisition of shares under the Scheme, the employee must be a permanent employee. In addition, the employee must have been employed by the company for at least one year. A draft resolution on which employees that will be subject to the Scheme will be drawn up by the remuneration committee in consultation with the CEO. The board of directors will resolve upon which employees that will be subject to the Scheme.

Distribution and acquisition of Cantargia share
When the target achievement has been determined by the company’s board of directors, the amount will be distributed to each participant in the Scheme within four weeks. The acquisition of shares by the participant shall be made as soon as possible after the distribution from the company. In the event the participant is prevented from acquiring shares of the company, due to for example applicable market abuse regulations, the company’s board of directors may permit that the acquisition of shares under the Scheme takes place at a later stage.

Participants are required to use their entire remuneration under the Scheme, net of tax, to acquire Cantargia shares on the stock market. Shares acquired by a participant under the Scheme must be held by the participant under a three-year period after the distribution.

The company will pay social security contributions on variable remuneration distributed under the Scheme. However, the remuneration distributed under the Scheme will not entitle to pension contributions or holiday pay in addition to what is provided under mandatory legislation.

Termination of employment or breach of contract
A participant whose employment ceases because of termination by the employee or by the company or for other
reasons will be required to continue to hold shares acquired in accordance with the provisions of the Scheme.

In the event a participant violates the terms of the Scheme, for example by failing to provide information on the status of its shareholding, the company may require that the participant sells all shares acquired under the Scheme, whereby the gross amount received by the participant through the sale shall be reimbursed to the company. In the event the participant sells shares in breach of the terms of the Scheme, the participant is required to pay a penalty to the company corresponding to the gross amount that the employee has received through the sale of the shares.

Principles for annual variable remuneration and the Scheme
When designing the annual variable remuneration and the Scheme, the board of directors shall consider introducing conditions which:

• disqualify a person from future participation in variable or long-term remuneration schemes, if that person sells shares in breach of the provisions of the Scheme;

• make the distribution of a certain portion of such remuneration contingent on that the performance, on which the remuneration is based, proves to be sustainable over time;

• give the company the right to reclaim remuneration which has been distributed based on information which subsequently has proved to be manifestly incorrect; and

• stipulate that distribution to a participant shall be entirely or partially delayed, reduced or cancelled if the payment, in the view of the board of directors, is considered inappropriate with regards to the company’s results, position or liquidity situation.

Share issue authorization (item 15)
The board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting resolves to authorize the board of directors, up and until the next annual general meeting, on one or several occasions and with or without pre-emptive rights for shareholders, to resolve on the issue of new shares, provided that such issue or issues may not comprise a total of more than 10 per cent of the number of outstanding shares in the company as per the day of the annual general meeting. It shall also be possible to make such an issue resolution stipulating in-kind payment, the right to offset debt or other conditions.

The purpose of the authorization is to raise working capital for the company. If the board of directors resolves on a share issue with deviation from the shareholders’ pre-emptive rights, the reason therefor shall be to raise working capital for the company, to provide new shareholders of strategic importance to the company or to acquire other companies or businesses.

The CEO shall be authorized to make such adjustments to this resolution that may be necessary in connection with the registration thereof.
