RESOLUTION PROPOSALS

Item 7 – Resolution to amend § 4 and § 5 in the articles of association

To facilitate the registration of the rights issue that the Company intends to carry out, as announced by the Company on 20 December 2023, the board of directors proposes that the general meeting resolves to amend the limits for the share capital and the number of shares in the articles of association.

§ 4 in the articles of association is proposed to have the following wording.

Current wording

The share capital shall amount to at least SEK 1,943,394.19 and not more than SEK 7,773,576.76.

Proposed wording

The share capital shall amount to at least SEK 3,425,858 and not more than SEK 13,703,432.

§ 5 in the articles of association is proposed to have the following wording.

Current wording

The number of shares may not be lower than 194,339,419 or more than 777,357,676.

Proposed wording

The number of shares may not be lower than 342,585,803 or more than 1,370,343,212.

The board of directors, the CEO, or anyone appointed by the board of directors or the CEO, shall be authorized to make such minor amendments to the above resolution as may be necessary in connection with the registration of the resolution with the Swedish Companies Registration Office or due to other formal requirements.

A valid resolution requires that the resolution is supported by shareholders representing at least two thirds of the votes cast as well as of the shares represented at the general meeting.

Item 8 – Resolution on authorisation for the board of directors to resolve on issues of shares, warrants and/or convertibles

Due to the board of directors’ proposed resolution to amend the limits for the share capital and the number of shares in the articles of association under item 7 above and the Company’s intention to carry out a rights issue, as announced by the Company on 20 December 2023, the board of directors proposes that the general meeting authorises the board of directors to resolve on new issuances as follows.

The board of directors proposes that the extraordinary general meeting shall resolve to authorise the board of directors to, on one or several occasions up until the next annual general meeting, resolve on issues of shares, warrants and/or convertibles. The issues may be made with or without deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights, as well as on terms regarding payment in kind, by set-off or other terms.

The number of shares that may be issued under the authorisation, and the increase of the share capital, shall not be limited other than by the limits for the number of shares and share capital as set out in the articles of association in its registered wording at each time. The board of directors shall otherwise have the right to determine all terms and conditions for the issue. The reason that the board of directors may resolve upon an issue with deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights is that the Company shall be able to issue new shares, warrants and/or convertibles in order to finance the Company’s continued operations and expansion.

In the event that the extraordinary general meeting resolves in accordance with the board of directors’ proposal under this item 8, this issue authorisation shall replace the issue authorisation that the annual general meeting adopted on 8 June 2023.

The board of directors, the CEO, or anyone appointed by the board of directors or the CEO, shall be authorised to make such minor amendments to the above resolution as may be necessary in connection with the registration of the resolution with the Swedish Companies Registration Office or due to other formal requirements.

A valid resolution requires that the resolution is supported by shareholders representing at least two thirds of the votes cast as well as of the shares represented at the general meeting.

About Metacon AB (publ)

Metacon AB (publ) develops and manufactures energy systems for the production of fossil-free “green” hydrogen. The products in the Reforming business area are based, among other things, on a patented technology that generates hydrogen through so-called catalytic steam reforming of biogas or other hydrocarbons. The development of Metacon’s reforming products is done within the wholly owned subsidiary Metacon S.A in Patras, Greece. The business is focused on catalytic process chemistry and advanced reformers for highly efficient hydrogen production.

Metacon also offers complete electrolysis plants and integrated hydrogen refueling stations, a large and globally growing area for small- and large-scale production of green hydrogen. Electrolysis is a process of driving a chemical reaction to split water by adding electricity. If the electricity used is non-fossil, the hydrogen will also be fossil-free and climate-neutral. Green hydrogen can be used in sectors such as transport, basic industry and the real estate sector, with a better environment and climate as a result. www.metacon.com
