2 Chairman of the AGM

10 Election Committee's principles

The Election Committee proposes to the AGM 2025 that the principles adopted at the previous AGM 2024 should also apply to the next Election Committee.

15 Election of Auditors until AGM 2025

Election of the registered auditing firm Deloitte AB for the period until the end of the next AGM. Deloitte AB has advised that Alexandros Kouvatsos will be appointed as auditor in charge if Deloitte AB is elected as auditor.

PROPOSAL OF THE BOARD FOR RESOLUTIONS WITH RESPECT TO ITEMS 9, 16-19 ABOVE:

9 Appropriation of the Company's profit in accordance with the adopted balance sheet

The Board of Directors proposes a dividend to the shareholders of SEK 2.20 (1.90) per share and that Thursday, 28 August 2025 shall be the record day for receiving the dividend. If the AGM adopts the proposal, the dividend is expected to be remitted by Euroclear Sweden AB on Tuesday, 2 September 2025 to shareholders recorded in the share register on the record day.

16 Principles for remuneration and other terms of employment for senior executives

The Board proposes that the AGM resolves to approve the Board's report on Remuneration in accordance with chapter 8 section 53 a Swedish Companies Act (2005:551).

17 Authorisation for the Board of Directors to take decisions on acquisition of and assignment of own shares

The Board proposes that the AGM resolve to authorise the Board, on one or more occasions until the next AGM, to acquire as many Class B shares, such that the Company's holding of own shares at any given time does not exceed 10 percent of all shares in the Company. Purchases shall be made via Nasdaq Stockholm within the prevailing price range at any given time (i.e. the spread between the highest buying price and lowest selling price).

The Board of Directors also proposes that the AGM resolve to authorise the Board of Directors until the next AGM to sell the Company's holdings of its own Class B shares, in connection with acquisition of companies or businesses, outside of Nasdaq Stockholm, at a price deemed equivalent to market value. Transfers on Nasdaq Stockholm must take place within the price range registered at any given time. In the case of transfers outside Nasdaq Stockholm, payment for the shares must be made in cash, with property in kind or by set-off and the transfer must be carried out on market terms. The authorisation may be exercised on one or more occasions, but not longer than until the next AGM, and covers all holdings of the Company's own shares at the time of the decision of the Board of Directors. The authorisation includes the right for the Board of Directors to decide on a departure from the preferential rights of shareholders.

The purpose of acquiring and selling the Company's own shares is to allow the Board of Directors to adapt the Group's capital structure, as well as to enable the future acquisition of companies and businesses with payment using the Company's own shares, and to ensure the delivery of shares in connection with the Company's outstanding incentive programmes at any given time.

Acquisition and sale of own shares in accordance with this authorisation shall be carried out with due observance of Nasdaq Stockholm's rules for issuers.

The decision on an authorisation according to this item requires that the AGM's resolution is supported by at least two thirds of the votes and number of shares represented at the AGM.

18 Proposal for resolution regarding the issuance of call options on repurchased shares and assignment of repurchased shares to managers and senior executives

The Board of Directors proposes that the AGM 2025 pass a resolution on the establishment of a call option programme for managers and senior executives of the Lagercrantz Group. The purpose of the programme is to allow management staff in the Lagercrantz Group, through their own investment, to benefit from and strive for an increase in the value of the Company's shares, thereby more closely aligning the interests of managers and shareholders in the Company. The purpose of the programme is to also contribute to increasing the long-term share ownership of management staff in the Company.

The proposal is that the Company shall issue call options on repurchased Class B shares in the Company on the following principal terms and conditions:

• (i) Number of call options − that can be issued − shall be no more than 800,000.
• (ii) The right to acquire call options will accrue to managers and senior executives in the Lagercrantz Group in accordance with item (vii) below. Subscription for call options shall take place from 15 September 2025 until 23 September 2025. Payment for acquired call options shall be made no later than 1 October 2025.
• (iii) Each call option shall entitle its holder to acquire one (1) repurchased Class B share in the Company at a redemption price of 125 percent of the average value for each of the trading days during the period from 27 August 2025 until 9 September 2025, calculated from the average of the highest and lowest price paid according to Nasdaq Stockholm's official quotation for Class B shares in the Company. Days without a quotation of the price paid shall be excluded from the calculation. The redemption price may be recalculated during the term of the call option programme under certain conditions.
• (iv) The premium for the call options shall be equivalent to the market value of the call options in accordance with an external valuation applying the generally accepted valuation method (the Black & Scholes model).
• (v) Acquisition of Class B shares in the Company by exercising call options may occur on two occasions: (i) after the Company publishes its Interim Report for the period 1 April 2028 – 30 September 2028 (probably during the period 30 October – 10 November 2028, and (ii) after the Company publishes its Year-End Report for the period 1 April 2028 – 31 March 2029 (probably during the period 17 – 30 May 2029).
• (vi) Upon full subscription of the call options, up to 800,000 Class B shares in the Company (subject to any recalculation), equivalent to approximately 0.4 percent of the total number of shares outstanding (of Class A as well as Class B) and approximately 0.3 percent of the total number of votes in the Company, may be acquired within the framework of the call option programme.
• (vii) The programme shall cover a maximum of some 100 managers and senior executives in the Lagercrantz Group. The proportion between the number of call options offered to the employee shall vary depending on the responsibility and position of the employee and previous inclination to exercise options for shares.
• (viii) The Board of Directors will ultimately decide which persons shall be included in each respective category according to the principles set forth in item (vii) above, and how many call options employees in each category are to be offered to acquire.
• (ix) A person entitled to an allocation of call options may acquire up to 150% of the originally offered number of call options, if another entitled person decides to wholly or partly decline the offer of call options. For call options acquired as described in this section, no extra compensation shall be paid in accordance with item (xiii) below.
• (x) With the exception of the Company's President, the members of the Board of Directors are not entitled to acquire call options within the framework of the call option programme.
• (xi) Issuance of call options to employees outside of Sweden will depend on prevailing tax effects, that no legal obstacles exist and that the Board of Directors is of the opinion that such allocations can be made by expending reasonable administrative and financial resources.
• (xii) Call options are freely assignable with regard to the pre-emption agreement with the Company. Call options acquired are to be offered under the pre-emption agreement at market value. The Company is entitled to repurchase issued call options at market value, which is calculated based on the calculated weighted average price paid according to Nasdaq Stockholm-s price list for class B share in the company, during five days immediately following the day of the company publishes the interim report for the period 1 April-30 September 2028 or the year-end report for the period 1 April 2028 – 31 March 2029. Days without a price paid shall not be included in the calculation
• (xiii) For the purpose of encouraging participation in the call option programme, extra compensation in the form of cash gross salary will be paid to the participants, equivalent to the option premium paid. Payment of the extra compensation will take place two (2) years after the resolution on the adoption of this call option programme, provided that the option holder on this date has not resigned or been served with notice and still owns the call options.
• (xiv) The costs for the programme are estimated to be approximately MSEK 22, after corporate taxes (calculated based on conditions prevailing as of 27 June 2025). The costs mainly consist of the extra compensation as described above and of the social security contributions payable thereon. The programme is expected to have a marginal effect on the Company's earnings per share. The extra compensation is equivalent to the option premium of a total amount of approximately MSEK 21 that the Company will receive upon assignment of the call options. The programme therefore does not entail any net charge against the Company's equity.
• (xv) The proposal by the Board of Directors implies that the AGM also approves that the Company, in a departure from the preferential rights of shareholders, assigns up to 800,000 of the Company's repurchased Class B shares at the determined redemption price in connection with any exercise of the call options (subject to any recalculation).
• (xvi) The reason for the departure from the preferential rights of shareholders is to allow management staff in the Lagercrantz Group, through their own investment, to benefit from and strive for, an increase in the value of the Company's shares, thereby more closely aligning the interests of managers and shareholders in the Company. The purpose of the programme is also to contribute to increasing the long-term share ownership of management staff in the Company. The programme also aims to motivate managers and senior executives to remain employed in the Group.
• (xvii) Finally, the proposal of the Board of Directors means that the AGM approves that Class B shares acquired by the Company in accordance with prior authorisations may be assigned for the purpose of ensuring delivery of shares through the proposed call option programme.

The company currently (as of July 2025) has three outstanding option programmes, each one with a term of approximately 3.5 years, in which managers and senior executives in the Lagercrantz Group acquired call options on repurchased Class B shares in the company during 2022, 2023 and 2024. The outstanding number of call options, after completed repurchases, amounts to 2,313,000 options in total and is equivalent to approximately 1.1% of the total number of shares and approximately 0.8% of the total number of votes in the company.

The proposal for the call option programme was prepared by the Company's Remuneration Committee in consultation with the Company's Board of Directors. The decision to propose the issuance of call options on repurchased shares was made by the Board of Directors.

The decision on issuance of call options and assignment of repurchased shares, for this reason, in accordance with this item, requires that the AGM's resolution is supported by shareholders holding not less than nine tenths of the votes and number of shares represented at the AGM.

19 Authorisation for the Board to resolve on a new issue of up to 10 percent of the number of B shares

In order to enable more acquisitions, the Board proposes that the AGM 2025 resolves to authorise the Board to, for a period until the next AGM, on one or more occasions, decide on a new issue of Class B shares. New issue of class B shares may take place with or without preferential rights for the Company's shareholders and payment shall be possible either in cash and / or through noncash consideration, set-off or otherwise with conditions. However, such issues may not cause the Company's registered share capital or the number of shares in the Company to increase by more than a total of 10 percent, based on the Company's registered share capital or the number of shares prior to exercise of the authorisation. The purpose of the authorisation is to increase the Company's financial flexibility and the Board's room for manoeuvre. If the Board decides on an issue with deviation from the shareholders preferential rights, the reason shall be that the shares may constitute a means of payment in connection with company acquisitions, to finance company acquisitions or to strengthen the financial position in connection with company acquisitions. In the event of such a deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, the issue shall take place on market-related terms and conditions.

The President is authorised to make such minor adjustments to the decision as may be necessary to register the authorisation.

The resolution on authorisation under this item requires that the AGM's resolution is supported by shareholders holding at least two thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the AGM.
