Articles of Association

Articles of Association, adopted at the Annual General Meeting held on 19 May 2021
 

1
The company name is Eolus Vind Aktiebolag (publ).

2
The Board of Directors has its registered office in Hässleholm, Sweden.

3
The company is to, directly or indirectly through subsidiaries, carry out project development, construction, sales, operation and management of wind power facilities, other facilities related to renewable energy and facilities for energy storage, and any other associated activities.

4
Share capital is to amount to a minimum of SEK 18,114,400 and a maximum of SEK 72,457,600, divided between a minimum of 18,114,400 shares and a maximum of 72,457,600 shares.

5
The minimum number of shares is 18,114,400 and the maximum number of shares is 72,457,600. The shares may be Class A shares or Class B shares. Each Class A share carries 1 vote and each Class B share carries 1/10 of a vote. The maximum number of Class A shares to be issued is 4,114,000 and the maximum number of Class B shares to be issued is 68,343,600.

If the share capital is increased through a cash issue or set-off issue, shareholders have preferential rights to the new shares in proportion to the number they already own. Owners of Class A shares are then primarily entitled to new Class A shares, while owners of Class B shares are primarily entitled to new Class B shares. Shares that shareholders with priority have not subscribed to will be offered to all shareholders, and if the entire number of shares subscribed to due to the latter offer cannot be issued, the shares will be divided among the subscribers in proportion to the number of shares they already own and if this is not possible by a lottery procedure. The same preferential rights apply to the issue of warrants and convertible instruments. If the share capital is increased through a bond issue, Class A shares and Class B shares will be issued in proportion to the number of shares of the same class that already exist. The old shares thus give priority to new shares of the same class in relation to the proportion of the share capital that they represent.

At the request of a shareholder, Class A shares (one or more) belonging to that shareholder will be converted into the corresponding proportion of Class B shares. Such a request for conversion must be made during the months of January and July each year (the “Conversion Periods”). The request for conversion, which must be in writing and indicate the number of shares to be converted, must have been received by the Board of Directors no later than the final day of the current Conversion Period.

The Board of Directors must consider the request for conversion at the end of each Conversion Period. The Board of Directors must then, without undue delay, report this conversion to the Swedish Companies Registration Office. The conversion is effected when it is registered in the Register of Companies and recorded in the Central Securities Depository (CSD) register.

6
The Board of Directors is to consist of 4 to 10 members with a maximum of 6 deputies. The members and deputies are elected annually at the Annual General Meeting for the period that runs until the end of the next Annual General Meeting.

7
The Board of Directors may authorise someone who is not on the Board to be a company signatory.
