Proposed decisions
 
Amendment to the articles of association, item 7
§ 4 Share capital. The board proposes that the limits for the company's share capital be changed to at least three hundred million Swedish kronor (SEK 300,000,000) and at most one billion, two hundred million Swedish kronor (SEK 1,200,000,000). The present wording is that the share capital shall be at least one hundred million Swedish kronor (SEK 100,000,000) and at most four hundred million Swedish kronor (SEK 400,000,000).
 
§ 5 Share amount. The board proposes a change entailing that only one (1) class of the company's shares may be issued in future, with one (1) vote per share. The present wording entails that the company's shares consist of two classes, class A with one (1) vote, and class B with a tenth (1/10) of a vote, that a class B share can be converted into a class A share in accordance with the procedure stated in the articles of association, and that automatic conversion is to take place on 2 January 2004, of all outstanding shares on the aforesaid date to the equivalent number of B shares. After registration of the automatic conversion by the Patent and Registration Office, which is expected to have taken place by the time of the extraordinary shareholders meeting in accordance with this notice, the company will only have one class of shares issued. The amendment now proposed entails that the division of the company's shares into two classes with opportunities for conversion be deleted.
 
Directed new issue of shares, item 8
The board proposes that the Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting make a decision to increase the company's share capital by at most SEK 65,000,000, by the issue of at most 13,000,000 new shares, each share of a nominal SEK 5. The right to subscribe to new shares is conferred, deviating from the priority right of shareholders, only on Wihlborgs Fastigheter AB (publ). Payment for the new shares is to be made in kind or by set-off. The decision is conditional on the shareholders' meeting previously adopting the decision on an amendment of the articles of association as above.
 
Authorisation, item 9
The board proposes that the Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting authorise the board, until the next annual general meeting of shareholders, on one or more occasions, with or without a deviation from the right of priority of shareholders, to decide on a new issue of a total of at most 20,000,000 shares, each at a nominal value of SEK 5, for acquisition of companies or properties. It is recommended that payment for the new shares be made in kind, set-off or in cash. The decision is conditional on the shareholders' meeting previously adopting the decision on an amendment of the articles of association as above.
