KPMG has informed the Company that the authorized public accountant Johanna Hagström will be appointed as auditor-in-charge if KPMG is elected as auditor.

Item 16. Resolution regarding authorization for the board of directors to resolve on issue of shares
The board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting resolves to authorize the board of directors to, on one or more occasions during the period until the end of the next annual general meeting, with or without deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights, resolve on a new issue of shares of Class A and/or Class B, provided that such an issue can be made without amending the articles of association. The total number of shares that may be issued under the authorization may in total not exceed ten (10) percent of the total number of shares in Catella at the time of the annual general meeting. A new issue by virtue of the authorization shall be made on market terms against payment in cash, contribution in kind or by way of set-off.

The purpose of the authorization and the reasons for any deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights are to enable the Company to increase growth and improve results and cash flow by financing acquisitions and/or investments and thus contribute to increased shareholder value, as well as to promote increased liquidity in the Company’s shares and a larger shareholder base in the Company.

Item 17. Resolution regarding authorization for the board of directors to resolve on repurchase and transfer of own shares
The board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting resolves to authorize the board of directors to, on one or more occasions during the period until the end of the next annual general meeting, resolve on repurchase of the Company’s own shares of Class A and/or Class B. Repurchase of shares may only be made at a maximum number of shares so that the Company’s holding, from time to time after such repurchase, does not exceed ten (10) percent of the total number of shares in the Company. Repurchase may only be made on Nasdaq Stockholm at a price per share within the prevailing share price interval at the time, where share price interval means the difference between the highest buying price and the lowest selling price. In the event that repurchase is effected by a stock broker assigned by the Company, the share price may, however, correspond to the volume weighted average price during the time period within which the shares were repurchased, even if the volume weighted average price on the date of delivery falls outside the price range. Payment for the shares shall be made in cash.

Further, the board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting resolves to authorize the board of directors to, on one or more occasions during the period until the end of the next annual general meeting, resolve to transfer own shares of Class A and/or Class B. The maximum number of shares of Class A and/or Class B that may be transferred may not exceed the total number of shares of Class A and/or Class B held by Catella at any given time.

Transfers shall take place on or outside Nasdaq Stockholm, including a right to resolve on deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights. Transfers of shares of Class A and/or Class B on Nasdaq Stockholm shall be made at a price within the prevailing share price interval at the time, where share price interval means the difference between the highest buying price and the lowest selling price. Transfers of shares of Class A and/or Class B outside Nasdaq Stockholm shall be made on market terms and to a price in cash or value of property received that corresponds to the share price at the time of the transfer of the shares of Class A and/or Class B in Catella that are transferred, with any deviation that the board of directors deems appropriate in the individual case.

The purpose of the above authorizations regarding repurchase and transfer of own shares of Class A and/or Class B, and the reason for the deviation from the shareholders’ pre-emptive right (in relation to transfer), is to enable the Company to increase growth and improve results and cash flow by financing acquisitions and/or investments in a cost-effective manner through payment with the Company’s own shares, and to enable the achievement of a more appropriate capital structure from time to time.
