Item 10 - Resolution regarding (a) approval of the Board of Directors' proposal for resolution regarding conversion from a European company to a public limited liability company, (b) amendment of the articles of association due to the proposal under (a), and (c) change of accounting currency

  1. Proposal for resolution regarding conversion from a European company to a public limited liability company

The Board of Directors proposes that the annual general meeting resolves on the conversion of the Company from a European company (Sw. europabolag) to a public limited liability company.

It is noted that the Board of Directors, in accordance with Article 66.3 of the Council Regulation (EC) No 2157/2001 of 8 October 2001 on the Statute for a European company (the "Regulation"), has prepared a proposal for the conversion from a European company to a public limited liability company, which was registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office on 2 May 2024, and subsequently announced in the Official Swedish Gazette (Sw. Post- och Inrikes Tidningar) on 6 May 2024, in accordance with Article 66.4 of the Regulation.

The reason why the Board of Directors proposes to the annual general meeting to resolve on a conversion from a European company to a public limited liability company is mainly to simplify the accounting in the Company by changing the accounting currency from the euro ("EUR"), which is the mandatory accounting currency for Swedish European companies, to Swedish kronor ("SEK"). The majority of the Company's operations are conducted in Sweden with SEK, and the use of EUR as the accounting currency therefore leads to more complicated accounting than if SEK were used, and currency exchange effects may occur. The first step to implement the change of accounting currency is to convert the Company from a European company to a Swedish public limited liability company. Thereafter, the Swedish Tax Agency must, as a general rule, approve the change of accounting currency. The change of accounting currency can take place from the fiscal year after the general meeting's resolution to amend the articles of association and thereby the new company form has been registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office. The Company has the calendar year as its fiscal year, which means that the Company can start using SEK as the accounting currency from 1 January 2025, at the earliest.

  1. Proposal for resolution to amend the articles of association in light of the proposal under (a)

In light of the prepared proposal for a resolution regarding the conversion from a European company to a public limited liability company under item a), the Board of Directors proposes the following amendments to the Company's articles of association:

  • Amendment of the Company's corporate name in § 1 of the articles of association:

Current wording

Proposed wording

1 § Company name

The Company's corporate name is MTI Investment SE.

§ 1 Company name

The Company's corporate name is MTI Investment AB (publ). The company is a public limited liability company.

  • Amendment of the provision regarding the Board of Directors in § 5 of the articles of association:

Current wording

Proposed wording

5 § Board of directors

The company shall be monistically organized and have one administrative body (the board of directors).

The board of directors is elected annually at the annual shareholders' meeting for the period until the end of the next annual shareholders' meeting.

The board of directors elected by the shareholders' meeting shall comprise not less than three (3) and not more than ten (10) members.

The board shall meet at least every three months.

§ 5 Board of directors

The board of directors shall consist of no less than three (3) and no more than ten (10) ordinary members with no more than two (2) deputies.

  1. Proposal for a resolution on the change of accounting currency

The Board of Directors further proposes, in light of the proposal for a resolution according to item a) above, that the annual general meeting resolves on the change of accounting currency and that the Company from 1 January 2025, shall have Swedish kronor (SEK) as its accounting currency instead of euro (EUR).

The Board of Directors, or a person appointed by the Board of Directors, shall be authorized to make any adjustments required to register the resolutions above with the Swedish Companies Registration Office and, if applicable, with Euroclear Sweden AB.

For a valid resolution in accordance with this proposal, the support of shareholders representing at least two-thirds (2/3) of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the general meeting is required.

The resolutions according to items a) - c) above shall be made as one resolution and are thus conditional upon each other.

Item 11 - Resolutions regarding (a) implementation of incentive program 2024/2027A to senior executives and key personnel, (b) directed issue of warrants and (c) approval of transfer of warrants

  1. Proposal for resolution regarding implementation of incentive program 2024/2027A

The Board of Directors proposes that the annual general meeting resolves to implement an incentive program through a directed new issue of warrants of series 2024/2027A ("Incentive program 2024/2027A") to the Company according to item b) and approves the transfer of warrants from the Company to the participants in the incentive program according to item c) below.

  1. Proposal for resolution regarding new issue of warrants

The Board of Directors proposes that the annual general meeting resolves on a directed new issue of no more than 250,000 warrants on essentially the following conditions:

  • The right to subscribe for warrants shall, with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, accrue to the Company with the right and obligation to transfer the warrants to the participants in accordance with item c) below.
  • The reason behind the deviation from the shareholder's preferential rights is to provide the warrants under Incentive program 2024/2027A.
  • The warrants shall be issued free of charge.
  • Subscription for warrants shall be made on a separate subscription note no later than on the date of the general meeting. The Board of Directors shall be authorized to extend the subscription period.
  • Oversubscription is not allowed.
  • For each warrant the holder is entitled to subscribe for one (1) new ordinary share in the Company, during the period from 10 June 2027 until 10 June 2030, or such earlier date as follows from the complete terms and conditions for subscription of warrants.
  • The subscription price for subscription of ordinary shares through the exercise of warrants shall amount to SEK 3.27 per share. The difference between the quota value and the subscription price (the residual amount) shall be paid to the unrestricted premium fund.
  • Upon full exercise of all warrants for subscription of shares in the Company, the Company's share capital will increase by a maximum of EUR 5,000.
  • New shares subscribed for pursuant to exercise of the warrants shall entitle to dividend for the first time on the record date for dividend that occurs immediately following the registration of the new shares with the Swedish Companies Registration Office and their entry into the share register maintained by Euroclear Sweden AB.
  • The warrants are subject to customary terms and conditions as specified in "Terms and conditions for warrants of series 2024/2027A for subscription of shares in MTI Investment SE (undergoing a name change to MTI Investment AB (publ))". The subscription price as well as the number of ordinary shares a warrant entitles to may be recalculated in accordance with the complete terms and conditions.
  • Warrants held by the Company and not transferred in accordance with item c) below, may be cancelled by the Company after a resolution by the Board of Directors. The cancellation shall be reported to the Swedish Companies Registration Office for registration.
  1. Proposal for resolution regarding approval of further transfer of warrants

The Board of Directors proposes that the annual general meeting resolves to approve that the Company may transfer a maximum of 250,000 warrants in the Company to senior executives (Sw. ledande befattningshavare) and key personnel in the Company, as well as any subsidiaries that may be included in the Company's group from time to time, including any portfolio companies ("Participants"), according to the principles below.

  • The CEO of the Company, Pontus Engström, shall be offered a maximum of 50,000 warrants;
  • The CFO of the Company, Nedim Efendic, shall be offered a maximum of 50,000 warrants; and
  • Other senior executives and/or key personnel shall be offered a maximum of 150,000 warrants, with the distribution of warrants to other senior executives and/or key personnel to be resolved by the Board of Directors based on what is deemed to be in the best interest of the Company.

Notification period and conditions

Notification for subscription of warrants shall be made during the period from 10 June 2024 until 10 September 2024 and may be made either by the Participant or by a wholly-owned company by the Participant (controlling company). The Board of Directors of the Company shall be authorized to extend the application period and to specify a corresponding application period for new Participants whose acquisition occurs after the expiration of the initial subscription period.

Participation in the Incentive program 2024/2027A is conditional upon that such participation can legally take place and that the Participant signs a separate option agreement with the Company. The option agreement means that the Company, or its designee, under certain conditions, has the right to repurchase all or parts of the warrants from the Participant based on an established vesting model. Such repurchase right shall exist, for example, if the Participant's employment or assignment in the Company or in another company that may be included in the Company's group from time to time (the "Group"), including any portfolio company, ceases, or if the Participant intends to transfer or otherwise dispose of the warrants to a third party.

Price and payment etc.

The warrants shall be transferred on market terms at a price based on a calculated market value for the warrants using the Black & Scholes valuation model or another established valuation model carried out by an independent valuation institute, auditing firm, or valuation expert.

For acquisitions made by new Participants after the expiration of the initial notification period, a new market price shall be determined in a corresponding manner.

Payment for the acquired warrants shall be made in cash at the time of acquisition and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the respective option agreement between the Company and the Participant. However, the Board of Directors of the Company shall have the right to extend the payment period of allotted warrants. For acquisitions made by new Participants, the Board of Directors shall determine a corresponding payment date.

Background and reasons for the Incentive program 2024/2027A

The purpose of the Incentive Program 2024/2027A is to create conditions for retaining and increasing motivation among the Company's and, where applicable, the Group's senior executives and key personnel. The Board of Directors believes that it is in the interest of all shareholders that the Participants, who are important for the further development of the Company and, where applicable, the Group, have a long-term interest in a positive development of the share price in the Company. A long-term ownership commitment is expected to stimulate an increased interest in the overall business and financial development and to raise the motivation of the Participants, aiming to achieve increased alignment of interests between the Participants and the Company's shareholders.

Other outstanding incentive programs

The Company has previously established the following incentive programs: (i) incentive program 2022/2025A and (ii) incentive program 2023/2026. For further information, please refer to the Company's annual report for the fiscal year 2022, as it pertains to incentive program 2022/2025A, and the fiscal year 2023, as it pertains to incentive program 2023/2026.

Dilution

If all warrants are exercised, the number of shares in the Company will increase by 250,000, which corresponds to a dilution of approximately 2,1 percent of the shares and votes based on the current number of shares in the Company.

Costs and effects on key performance indicators

As the warrants are acquired at market value, the assessment is that no social costs will arise for the Company except for limited costs for implementation and administration of the Incentive program 2024/2027A. Incentive Program 2024/2027A has no effect on the Company's key performance indicators.

Preparation of the proposal

The proposal of Incentive program 2024/2027A has been prepared by the Board of Directors in collaboration with external advisors.

Authorization

The Board of Directors proposes that the annual general meeting shall authorize the Board of Directors, or a person appointed by the Board of Directors, to make any adjustments required to register the resolution with the Swedish Companies Registration Office and possibly with Euroclear Sweden AB.

Majority requirements etc.

The resolution requires the support of shareholders holding at least nine-tenths (9/10) of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the general meeting.

The resolutions according to items a) - c) above shall be made as one resolution and are thus conditional upon each other.

Item 13 - Resolution regarding (a) approval of the acquisition of shares in the portfolio company FinTech Africa AB from the Company's CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors (related party transactions) and (b) directed share issue in kind

  1. Proposal for resolution to approve the acquisition of shares in the portfolio company FinTech Africa AB from the Company's CEO and the Chairman of the Board of Directors (related party transactions)

The Company has on 2 May 2024 entered into conditional agreements to acquire (i) 22,666 shares in FinTech Africa AB, reg. no 559189-6104 ("FTA"), corresponding to approximately 18.54% of all issued shares in FTA, from the Company's CEO Pontus Engström through a legal entity and (ii) 6,667 shares in FTA, corresponding to approximately 5.45% of all issued shares in FTA, from the Company's Chairman Trond Randøy through a through a legal entity (together the "Sellers"). The total purchase price for the shares in FTA has been determined to SEK 3,609,719 (the "Purchase Price") after negotiations and an independent valuation, and is intended to be paid through a so-called share exchange where the Purchase Price for the shares in FTA is paid in the form of a maximum of 2,050,976 newly issued shares in the Company (the "Consideration Shares") through a directed issue in kind to the Sellers in accordance with item b) below (the "Issue in Kind"), whereby the Purchase Price corresponds to a subscription price of SEK 1.76 per share in the Issue in Kind.

The value of FTA was determined by an independent valuation performed by Placing Valuation, part of FinReg Solutions AB with reg. no 556939-3308 ("Placing"), which in its valuation report as of 14 March 2024 arrived at a final valuation of FTA of approximately SEK 32,705,773, based on 122,260 issued shares in FTA and thus a price of SEK 267.51 per share. After negotiations, the parties agreed that a discount of 54% would be applied to the valuation of FTA and that the price per share in FTA would thus amount to SEK 123.06. The background to the discount is that Placing conducted a valuation of the Company in connection with the financial statement for the fiscal year 2023 and then arrived at a net asset value per share in the Company of SEK 3.79. The share price in the Company at the same time was SEK 1.76 per share, which corresponded to a discount of 54%. The parties therefore agreed to apply the same discount to the shares in FTA and that the subscription price in the Issue in Kind should thus be set at SEK 1.76.

The Company already owns 15,346 shares in FTA and will, after the completion of the transactions, own 44,679 shares in FTA, corresponding to approximately 36.54% of all issued shares in FTA.

Since the Sellers are related parties to the Company according to the so-called Leo rules in Chapter 16 of the Swedish Companies Act (2005:551), the transactions have been made conditional upon the approval of the general meeting and that the general meeting resolves to issue the Consideration Shares to the Sellers as payment for the acquired shares in FTA through the Issue in Kind.

The Board of Directors therefore proposes that the annual general meeting resolves to approve the acquisitions of the total of 29,333 shares in FTA from the Sellers.
