Approval of share savings program
The AGM resolved in accordance with the Board's proposal to introduce annually recurring share savings programs ("the Programs") with the aim that the Programs cover all employees in the Group to the furthest extent possible. The purpose of the Programs is to increase the possibilities of retaining and recruiting employees in the Group. The Board also believes that a personal and long-term ownership commitment among the participants will contribute to greater interest in the Company's operations and earnings trend and will constitute a competitive and motivating incentive for all employees in the Group. The programs essentially correspond to the annually recurring share savings programs adopted at the 2018 Annual General Meeting. 

The AGM resolved in accordance with the Board's proposal to introduce one Program annually in 2021, 2022 and 2023, respectively.

Authorization
The AGM resolved in accordance with the Board's proposal to authorize the Board to, on one or more occasions, during the time until the next Annual General Meeting, with or without deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, against cash payment, contribution in kind or through offset, decide on the issue of shares and/or convertibles that entail the issue of or conversion to a total of no more than 5.6 million shares, which corresponds to a dilution of approximately 20.0 percent of the share capital and around 7.5 percent of the votes. The objective of the authorization is to increase the Company's financial flexibility to finance operating activities and to be able to pay with own shares and/or convertibles both in connection with possible acquisitions of businesses or operations that the Company may carry out, and to settle any supplementary purchase considerations in connection with such acquisitions. In the event of issues with a deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, the premise for determining the issue price shall be the prevailing market conditions at the time the shares and/or convertibles are issued.
