Adopted at the extraordinary shareholders’ meeting held on 10 March 2025
§ 1 Registered name
The registered name of the company is Röko AB (publ). The company is a public limited liability company.
§ 2 Registered office
The company's registered office shall be situated in Stockholm.
§ 3 Operations
The company shall, on a long-term basis, own and manage real property and movable property and carry out other operations consistent herewith.
§ 4 Share capital
The share capital shall be not less than SEK 500,000 and not more than SEK 2,000,000.
§ 5 Number of shares
The number of shares shall be not less than 10,000,000 and not more than 40,000,000.
§ 6 Classes of shares
Two classes of shares may be issued, class A shares and class B shares. Class A shares carry ten votes per share and class B shares carry one vote per share. Class A shares and Class B shares carry equal rights to a part of the company’s assets and profit.
Shares of each class may be issued in a number equal to the entire share capital.
If the company resolves to issue new shares of class A and class B, through a cash or set-off issue, shareholders of class A and class B shall have pre-emption rights to subscribe for new shares of the same class pro rata to the number of shares previously held by them (primary preemption right). Shares which are not subscribed for pursuant to the primary pre-emption rights shall be offered to all shareholders for subscription (subsidiary pre-emption right). If the shares thus offered are not sufficient for the subscription pursuant to the subsidiary pre-emption rights, the shares shall be allocated between the subscribers’ pro rata to the number of shares previously held and, to the extent such allocation cannot be effected, by the drawing of lots.
If the company resolves only to issue class A shares or only to issue class B shares through a cash or set-off issue, all shareholders shall, irrespective of share class held, have pre-emption rights to subscribe for new shares pro rata to the number of shares previously held by them. If the company resolves to issue warrants or convertible debentures through a cash or set-off issue, the shareholders shall have pre-emption rights to subscribe for warrants as if the issue applied to the shares that may be subscribed for pursuant to the right of warrant and preemption rights to subscribe for convertible debentures as if the issue applied to the shares that the convertible debentures may be converted to, respectively.
The above shall not limit the right to resolve upon a cash or set-off issue with deviation from the shareholders’ pre-emption rights.
In the event of a bonus issue, new shares of each class shall be issued pro rata to the number of shares of the same class previously issued. In this connection, the shareholders of existing shares of a certain class shall have pre-emption rights to new shares of the same class. This shall not restrict the possibility of issuing new shares of a new class by means of a bonus issue, following the required amendment to the articles of association.
