Shareholders that wish to participate in the Meeting,
Shareholders represented by proxy must submit a written and dated power of attorney. If the power of attorney is executed by a legal person, a certified copy of the certificate of registration or equivalent must be attached. The power of attorney is valid for a period of one year from its issuance; however, the power of attorney may be valid for up to five years from its issuance if explicitly stated. The original power of attorney and certificate of registration should be submitted to the Company by post at the address above in due time prior to the Meeting. A proxy form is available on the Company's website (www.naxs.se) and will be sent to shareholders who request the form. To facilitate registration at the Meeting, it is recommended that the proxy and the certificate of registration or equivalent certificate of authority are sent to the Company as set out above so that it is received no later than Friday 24 March 2023.
To be entitled to participate in the Meeting, shareholders whose shares are registered in the name of a nominee/custodian must, in addition to providing notification of participation, re-register their shares in their own names in the share register maintained by Euroclear Sweden AB so that the shareholder is recorded in the share register relating to the circumstances on Wednesday 22 March 2023. Such registration may be temporary (so-called voting right registration) and must have been effected at Euroclear Sweden AB no later than on Friday 24 March 2023, and the shareholders must therefore advise their nominees well in advance of this date.

The nomination committee of the Company proposes that the Meeting resolves in accordance with the following;
• Joel Wahlberg from Advokatfirman Vinge is proposed to chair the Meeting.
The funds at the Meeting's disposal consists of the result of the year, SEK 76,767,547, the share premium reserve, SEK 577,705,947, and the Company's accumulated results, SEK -83,788,268, in total SEK 570,685,226.
The board proposes that the funds at the Meeting's disposal shall be allocated as dividends to the shareholders of SEK 3.75 per share and that the remaining unrestricted equity is carried forward. Monday 3 April 2023 is proposed as record day for dividends.
The board proposes that the Meeting resolves to authorise the board to decide on the acquisition of the Company's own shares where, principally, the following shall apply;
The purpose of the proposed authorisation is to provide flexibility in relation to the Company's possibilities to return capital to its shareholders, to improve the capital efficiency in the Company, and to prevent an excessively wide NAV/share price discount in relation to the Company's shares, which altogether is deemed to be susceptible to have a positive impact on the Company's share price and thereby contribute to an increased shareholder value.
The board of directors' statement in accordance with Chapter 19 Section 22 of the Swedish
Companies Act will be held available together with the proposal and on the Company's website no later than three weeks prior to the Meeting.
The board proposes that the Meeting resolves to reduce the share capital and resolves on a bonus issue in accordance with item (a) - (b) below. The resolutions are contingent of each other and are therefore proposed to be adopted as one resolution.
The board proposes that the Meeting resolves to reduce the Company's share capital with SEK 5,043.67 for allocation to unrestricted equity. The reduction shall be made by cancellation of the 75,000 acquired own shares that are held by the Company on the day of the notice to Meeting.
The board proposes that the Company's share capital shall be increased with SEK 5,043.67 with the amount being transferred from unrestricted equity (according to the balance sheet to be adopted by the Meeting). The bonus issue shall be carried out without the issuance of new shares.
The board of directors' statement in accordance with Chapter 20 Section 13 of the Swedish Companies Act and the auditors statement in accordance with chapter 20 section 14 of the Swedish Companies Act will be held available together with the proposal and on the Company's website no later than three weeks prior to the Meeting.
The board proposes a new 13 § of the articles of association in accordance with the below. The proposal to adopt a new 13 § is proposed to enable the board to collect powers of attorneys in accordance with the procedure described in Chapter 7, Section 4 of the Swedish Companies Act and to authorise the board to decide that the shareholders shall be entitled to exercise their voting rights by post prior to a general meeting to facilitate for shareholders who cannot attend the meeting in person.
The board of directors may collect powers of attorney in accordance with the procedure described in Chapter 7, Section 4, second paragraph 2 of the Swedish Companies Act (2005:551).
The board of directors has the right before a general meeting to decide that shareholders shall be able to exercise their right to vote by post before the general meeting.
A resolution in accordance with the proposal in item 15, 16 and 17 above shall only be valid where supported by not less than two-thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the Meeting.
The annual report and the auditor's report, the remuneration report, the complete proposals from the board and the auditor's and the board of directors' statements according to the Swedish Companies Act will be held available at the Company's office on Nybrogatan 8, Stockholm, Sweden, as well as on the Company's website, www.naxs.se no later than three weeks before the meeting.
