Resolution on the establishment of a long-term incentive programme (item 17)

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolve to adopt a long-term competitive incentive programme in the form of a share savings plan for senior officers and other key persons within the Bilia Group in accordance with item 17 (a) below ("the Programme"). The decision according to item 17 (a) shall be conditional on the AGM’s decision regarding measures to guarantee the incentive programme, either in accordance with the proposal under item 17 (b) below or in accordance with the proposal under item
17 (c) below.

The purpose of the Programme is to motivate and retain competent key persons in the Bilia Group, to attract new employees and to provide added incentives for employees to achieve and surpass Bilia’s financial goals. The Programme has been designed based on the assumption that it is desirable for senior officers and other key persons within the Bilia Group to be shareholders in Bilia. Participation in the Programme requires that the participant has contributed via private investment as described in 17 (a) below. The Programme also promotes employee loyalty and thereby long-term value growth in Bilia. Consequently, the Board of Directors believes that adoption of the Programme will have a positive effect on the future development of the Bilia Group and is therefore beneficial for both Bilia and its shareholders.

Adoption of the incentive programme (item 17 (a))

Main features of the Programme

The Board of Directors proposes that the AGM resolve to adopt a long-term incentive programme in the form of a share saving programme. The Programme is proposed to include a total of about sixty (60) key persons in the Bilia Group ("Participants") roughly distributed as follows.

• 40 Participants in Sweden,
• 15 Participants in Norway, and
• 5 Participants altogether in Germany, Luxembourg and Belgium.
  
  

The Participants in the Programme must have invested in the Group by acquiring shares in Bilia AB (publ) ("Savings Shares"). Subsequently, the Participants will be given an opportuntiy to acquire, free of cost, shares within the framework of the Programme,
so-called "Performance Shares", under the terms stipulated below (the "Rights").

The Participants in the Programme are divided into three categories. The first category includes Bilia’s Managing Director (MD), the other category includes Bilia’s Group management excluding MD (7 persons) and the third category includes other key persons (52 persons) which in turn are divided into three subgroups A, B and C.

Private investment

In order to participate in the Programme, the Participant must have made a private investment consisting of the acquisition of Savings Shares. The shares must have been acquired at market price between 10 May 2021 and 10 June 2021, for the purpose of being allocated to the Programme. The highest number of shares which a Participant may allocate to the Programme amounts to between 7 and 14 per cent of the Participant’s gross salary, based on the 2021 salary level.


The highest number of Savings Shares to be allocated to the Programme for the three Participant categories is shown below.

Category 1 MD	3,000 Savings Shares
Category 2 Group management (7 persons)	1,500 Savings Shares

Category 3 subgroup A (about 12 persons) subgroup B (about 20 persons) subgroup C (about 20 persons)

1,000 Savings Shares 750 Savings Shares 500 Savings Shares

The lowest number of Savings Shares a Participant must acquire in order to participate in the Programme shall correspond to a market value of at least twenty-five thousand kronor
(SEK 25,000). For each Savings Share held within the Programme, Bilia will allot three (3) performance rights to the Participant, whereby the Participant, provided that certain performance measures are achieved, is allotted one (1) Performance Share per right.

General terms

·Allotment of Performance Shares will take place provided that the Participant, with certain exceptions, has, from the start of the Programme up until 31 March 2024 (the "Vesting Period") kept his original Savings Shares and that the Participant, with certain exceptions, is still employed within the Bilia Group. The Programme will start as soon as is feasible after the AGM has adopted the Board’s proposal to this effect.

• Cost-free allotment of Performance Shares is, with the exception of what is stated in the point above, conditional on the performance goal established by the Board of Directors being met. Allotment per Participant is the same for all Participants. The maximum number of Performance Shares allocated within the framework of the Programme is 150,000. Maximum allotment of Performance Shares requires that the goals established by the Board of Directors regarding total yield on Bilia’s shares and increased earnings per share are met. Allotment of one (1) Performance Share occurs if the total yield on Bilia’s shares has been positive during the term of the Programme. Calculation of the total yield shall be based on the average volume-weighted closing price of the Bilia share during the trading days in May 2021, which shall be compared with the average volume-weighted closing price during the trading days in March 2024, adjusted for dividends paid during the term of the Programme. One (1) additional Performance Share is allotted to the Participant if earnings per share in 2023 has increased by 10 per cent compared with earnings per share in 2020. One-half (0.5) additional Performance Share is allotted to the Participant if earnings per share in 2023 has increased by 20 per cent compared with earnings per share in 2020. One-half (0.5) additional Performance Share is allotted to the Participant if earnings per share in 2023 has increased by 30 per cent compared with earnings per share in 2020.
  
  Terms for the Rights
  The following terms shall apply for the Rights under the Programme, in addition to what is stated above: ·The Participant must acquire the Savings Shares during the period 10 May 2021 to
  10 June 2021.·The Rights must be earned during the Vesting Period. ·Rights cannot be transferred or pledged.·Each Right entitles the Participant, under certain conditions, to obtain three (3) Performance Shares, after the end of the Vesting Period, provided that the Participant, with certain exceptions, has been employed in Bilia during the Vesting Period and still has his/her original Savings Shares in Bilia.·If the Board of Directors determines that the terms for allotment of Performance Shares are no longer reasonable in the light of, for example, major changes in Bilia, the Group or the market, the Board is entitled to make adjustments of the Programme.
  • The Board is entitled to adopt more detailed terms for the Programme.
  • The Programme shall consist of no more than 200,000 shares (including shares required to guarantee social security contributions for the Programme as explained below). Based on the assumption of full investment, this means about 150,000 Performance Shares. It is assumed that some 50,000 shares will be sold on the market to cover the costs of social security contributions.
  • The number of Performance Shares shall be recalculated in the event that a bonus issue (with the issue of new shares), a stock split or reverse stock split, a rights issue or other similar events occur in Bilia during the Vesting Period.
  Allotment of Performance Shares under the Programme In order to implement the Programme in a cost-effective and flexible manner, the Board of Directors has considered different methods for securing delivery of Performance Shares under the Programme. The Board has thereby found that the most cost-effective alternative is to guarantee delivery by transfer of own shares held by Bilia. The Board of Directors therefore proposes that the AGM resolve as the main alternative, in accordance with item 17 (b) below, to transfer own shares.
  In the event a majority cannot be achieved for item 17 (b) below, the Board of Directors proposes that it be resolved that Bilia may enter into an equity swap agreement with a third party in accordance with item 17 (c) below. Costs for the Programme Costs for the Programme are calculated in accordance with IFRS 2 and recognised in the income statement. The cost is recognised on a straight-line basis over the Vesting Period.
  
  Costs have been calculated with the following assumptions: a share price of SEK 127 at the time of the investment, a share price increase of 10 per cent during the term of the Programme, which entails a positive total yield at the end of the Programme, that the approximately 60 Participants invest the maximum permitted amounts in the Programme, and that all Savings Shares remain at the end of the Programme. This entails an annual cost for the Programme of SEK 2.4 M if earnings per share in 2023 has increased by 10 per cent compared with earnings per share in 2020 and SEK 3.7 M with maximum goal fulfilment.
  
  Social security contributions must also be paid and can be estimated to amount to a weighted nominal percentage of 28 per cent. The Participants reside in, and are tax residents of, Sweden, Norway, Germany, Luxembourg and Belgium. With an assumed distribution of shares between these countries, and with other conditions as stipulated above, the annual social security contributions are estimated to amount to SEK 1.2 M and SEK 1.8 M with maximum goal fulfilment.
  Effects of the Programme on important key ratios and share dilution The Programme is estimated to comprise a total of no more than 200,000 shares, including measures to guarantee social security contributions, excluding Savings Shares, which is equivalent to about 0.2 per cent of Bilia’s total number of shares outstanding.
  
  Outstanding rights to shares under previous long-term incentive programmes amount to about 0.1 per cent of Bilia’s total number of shares outstanding. The effect of existing incentive programmes, including the Programme, on important key ratios is only marginal. For a description of Bilia’s other long-term incentive programmes, see the company’s Annual Report for 2020 and the company’s website, www.bilia.com.
  
  Drafting process
  The Board’s decision to propose that the AGM resolve to approve the Programme as described above was made at a Board meeting of 22 March 2021. The proposal was drafted by the Board’s Compensation Committee in consultation with the Board and with the support of external advisers.
  
  Proposal for decision regarding transfer of own shares to Participants in the Programme (item 17 (b))
  The Board of Directors proposes that, in order to guarantee delivery of Performance Shares, the AGM resolve that Bilia A shares previously acquired and now held by Bilia can be transferred to Participants within the framework of the Programme.
  The Board further proposes that the AGM resolve that no more than 150,000 shares can be transferred to Participants under the Programme. The number of shares that can be transferred is subject to recalculation due to a intervening bonus issue, stock split, rights issue and/or similar events. Equity swap agreement with third party (item 17 (c))
  In the event the necessary majority cannot be achieved for item 17 (b) above, the Board of Directors proposes that the AGM resolve to guarantee the expected financial exposure due to the Programme by allowing Bilia to enter into an equity swap agreement on market terms with a third party, whereby the third party can, in its own name, acquire and transfer Bilia shares to the Participants.
  
  
  Proposed resolution to authorise the Board of Directors to approve transfer to cover social security contributions for the Programme (item 17 (d))
  In order to cover social security contributions that arise in conjunction with transfers of shares to the Participants under the Programme, the Board of Directors proposes that the AGM authorise the Board to approve transfers of own shares under the following terms: ·Transfer shall be made on Nasdaq Stockholm (the "Stock Exchange").·Transfer can be made, on one or more occasions prior to the 2022 Annual General Meeting, of no more than 50,000 shares held by Bilia.·Transfer of shares on the Stock Exchange can only be made at a price per share that lies within the noted price range at any given time.·Transfer can only be made in exchange for cash payment. The maximum number of shares that can be transferred/acquired on the Stock Exchange may be recalculated in the event a bonus issue (with the issue of new shares), stock split or reverse stock split occurs in Bilia, or if another event occurs that has occasioned recalculation of the number of shares to be transferred to the Participants under the Programme.
  
  
  The Board of Directors intends to propose at future Annual General Meetings as well that the AGM authorise the Board to approve transfer of own shares on the Stock Exchange to cover social security contributions that arise under the Programme.
  
  Terms
  The Board’s proposal that the AGM resolve to implement the Programme is conditional on the AGM’s also deciding to adopt measures to guarantee the incentive programme as stipulated above. The Board’s proposal that the AGM resolve to approve transfer of own shares is similarly conditional on the AGM’s decision to approve the Programme and authorisation of transfer of own shares to cover social security contributions. Majority required for decision
  A valid decision for item 17 (a) above requires that the proposal be approved by shareholders holding more than one-half (1/2) of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the meeting. A valid decision for item 17 (b) above requires that the proposal be approved by shareholders holding at least nine-tenths (9/10) of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the meeting. A valid decision for item 17 (c) above requires that the proposal be approved by shareholders holding more than
  one-half (1/2) of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the meeting. A valid decision for item 17 (d) above requires that the proposal be approved by shareholders holding more than two-thirds (2/3) of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the meeting.
  
  
  
  Acquisition or transfer of own shares (item 18)
  The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorise the Board to make decisions regarding the acquisition and transfer of own shares. The purpose of the authorisation is to give the Board greater freedom in its work with the company’s capital structure and to make it possible, if deemed appropriate, to acquire enterprises using the company’s shares as payment or to increase liquidity in the company’s share. The Board of Directors considers that company shares can, from the viewpoint of the shareholders, be an appropriate means of payment (full or partial) in conjunction with business combinations, whereby the preferential rights of the shareholders must for obvious reasons be waived. The Board’s proposal entails the following: Acquisition: The Board of Directors may, on one or more occasions up till the 2022 AGM, decide to acquire a number of Bilia shares such that the company’s own holding does not exceed 1/10th  of the number of shares in the company at any given time. The consideration paid for the shares shall be on market terms and buy-back shall be possible by cash purchase on Nasdaq Stockholm at a price within the range noted at that particular time and otherwise subject to existing regulations.
  
  Transfer: On one or more occasions prior to the 2022 AGM, the Board shall be able to decide on the transfer of all or part of the own shares that the Company holds at any given time. Transfer shall be possible by deviation from the shareholders’ preferential right at a price equal to the current share price, or equal to an average of the current share price for a maximum of 10 trading days in connection with the transfer, and with a deviation of no more than 10 per cent. The shares may be transferred on Nasdaq Stockholm, or the shares may be used as a means of payment in connection with a company acquisition.
