Share Investment Program (employees)
The Meeting resolved, in accordance with the Board of Directors’ proposal, on adoption of a long-term share ownership program for senior executives and other key employees within the Hoist Finance group. In order to fulfil its obligations according to the share investment program, the Meeting resolved, also in accordance with the Board of Directors’ proposal, on a directed issue of no more than 1,099,994 shares, entailing an increase in the share capital by no more than SEK 381,060.674. The Board of Directors’ proposal for the adoption of the share investment program and resolution on directed issue of shares constitute a joint proposal and was determined by the Meeting as one resolution.
18 people will be offered to participate in the share investment program, and the participants will be invited to invest, through companies (an incentive company), in shares in Hoist Finance in accordance with the terms of the share investment program. In the event of full investment in all participants’ incentive companies, the incentive companies will in turn subscribe for shares in Hoist Finance corresponding to at most approximately 1.2 percent of the total number of shares in Hoist Finance.
The share investment program entails that each participant will make a private investment by contributing 15 percent of total capital for the investment, and Hoist Finance contributes the remaining 85 percent. Hoist Finance’s total investment in the share investment program may not amount to more than SEK 93,500,003. The shares in Hoist Finance shall be subscribed for during the period from and including 25 May 2026 up to and including 29 May 2026. The Board of Directors is entitled to extend the subscription period. The share investment program has a term of four years, the Board of Directors is, however, entitled to extend the share investment program for the CEO of Hoist Finance.
Share Investment Program (Board of Directors)
The shareholders Per Arwidsson’s and Erik Selin’s proposal, on adoption of a long-term share ownership program for Bengt Edholm, Camilla Philipson Watz, Christopher Rees, Rickard Westlund and Peter Zonabend did not achieve the required majority at the meeting and was therefore not adopted.
