If the shareholder chooses to participate in a vote during the meeting, the vote cast will replace the previously submitted postal vote on that item.

Resolution to approve the Board of Directors’ resolution on a new issue of ordinary shares with preferential rights for the shareholders (item 8)
The Board of Directors proposes that the Extraordinary General Meeting resolves to approve the resolution by the Board of Directors on 6 October 2026, to increase the company’s share capital through an issue of ordinary shares with preferential rights for the shareholders made on the terms set out below (the “Rights Issue”). The objective of the Rights Issue is to strengthen the company’s financial position and finance Orexo’s prioritized development activities, payment of the company’s share of the expected settlement with the U.S. Department of Justice, DOJ, subject to the execution of a final settlement agreement, and strengthening of the company’s working capital.
The Board of Directors shall be authorised to, no later than five weekdays prior to the record date, decide on the maximum amount that the company’s share capital shall be increased with, the maximum number of ordinary shares that shall be issued in the Rights Issue, the number of existing shares that shall entitle to subscription for a certain number of new ordinary shares and the subscription price that shall be paid for each new ordinary share. The amount that exceeds the quota value of the shares shall be allocated to the free share premium reserve.
Each holder of ordinary shares shall have preferential rights to subscribe for new ordinary shares pro rata to the number of shares previously held by them. The company holds all issued class C shares in treasury. Should all shares not be subscribed for by virtue of subscription rights, the Board of Directors shall, within the framework of the maximum amount of the Rights Issue, decide on the allocation of ordinary shares which have not been subscribed for by virtue of subscription rights. In such case, ordinary shares shall firstly be allocated to those who have expressed an interest in subscribing and subscribed for new ordinary shares by virtue of subscription rights, regardless of whether the acquirer was a shareholder on the record date or not, and in the event of oversubscription, in relation to the number of subscription rights each have exercised for subscription of new ordinary shares. Secondly, ordinary shares will be allocated to others who have declared interest in subscribing for ordinary shares without exercising subscription rights, and in the event of oversubscription, in relation to the number of new ordinary shares specified in the respective subscription registration, and, to the extent that this is not possible, by lottery. Thirdly and finally, ordinary shares shall be allocated to the underwriter in accordance with the terms of the underwriting commitment.
The record date for determining the right to receive subscription rights shall be 10 November 2026. Subscription for new shares by virtue of subscription rights shall be made by way of cash payment during the period from 12 November 2026, up to and including 26 November 2026. Subscription of shares not based on subscription rights shall be made through subscription on an application form during the same subscription period and, as regards those subscribing in the capacity of underwriter of the Rights Issue, up to and including 3 December 2026. Payment for shares which have not been subscribed for based on subscription rights shall be made in cash not later than three (3) banking days following the date of the dispatch of a contract note specifying allocation of shares. The Board of Directors shall be entitled to prolong the subscription period as well as postpone the time of payment. The new shares entitle to dividend for the first time on the first record date for dividend that takes place after the Rights Issue has been registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office and been recorded in the share register kept by Euroclear Nordics AB. The issue resolution requires that the company’s articles of association are amended.
The Board of Directors, or the person that the Board of Directors appoints, shall be authorised to make minor adjustments to the Extraordinary General Meeting’s resolutions as may be required in connection with registration at the Swedish Companies Registration Office and Euroclear Nordics AB.
The resolution is conditional upon the Extraordinary General Meeting’s resolution to amend the articles of association, pursuant to item 7 of the agenda.
Resolution to authorise the Board of Directors to resolve on a new issue of ordinary shares to the underwriter (item 9)
In order to enable a new issue of ordinary shares as underwriting fee to the underwriter that has entered into an underwriting commitment to secure the Rights Issue (the “Underwriter”), the Board of Directors proposes that the Extraordinary General Meeting resolves to authorise the Board of Directors to, for the period until the next annual general meeting, on one or several occasions, with deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights and with or without provisions regarding set-off or other conditions, resolve on a new issue of ordinary shares to the Underwriter. When exercising the authorisation, the subscription price shall correspond to the subscription price in the Rights Issue.
The purpose of the authorisation and the reason for the deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights is to enable a new issue of ordinary shares as underwriting fee to the Underwriter. The total number of ordinary shares that may be issued pursuant to the authorisation shall not exceed the total number of ordinary shares corresponding to the agreed underwriting fee that the company is obligated to pay to the Underwriter.
The Board of Directors, or the person that the Board of Directors appoints, shall be authorised to make such minor formal adjustments to the resolution as may be required in connection with registration with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.
The resolution is conditional upon the Extraordinary General Meeting’s resolution to amend the articles of association, pursuant to item 7(a) or 7(b) of the agenda, and to approve the Board of Directors’ resolution on a new issue of ordinary shares with preferential rights for the shareholders, pursuant to item 8 of the agenda.
