Automatic redemption of shares, item 17
The Board of Directors proposes that the AGM resolves on a procedure for the automatic redemption of shares, in accordance with items 17 a - 17 c below. All resolutions are proposed to be conditional upon each other and adopted as one single resolution. A valid resolution requires the approval of share¬holders representing at least two-thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the AGM.

Resolution to implement a share split (item 17 a)
The Board of Directors proposes that the AGM resolves to implement a share split, whereby one share in Sectra is converted into two shares. One of these shares will be a so-called redemption share. The Board of Directors proposes that the record date for the share split shall be October 19, 2021.

Resolution to reduce the share capital through an automatic redemption of shares (item 17 b)
The Board of Directors proposes that the share capital is reduced by SEK 19,262,747 through the redemption of 13,103,460 Class A shares and 179,524,010 Class B shares (taking into account the division of shares pursuant to item 16 above) for repayment to the shareholders. 

The amount payable for each redemption share shall be SEK 0.90 (taking into account the division of shares pursuant to item 16 above). The maximum redemption amount will thus be SEK 173,364,723. The Board of Directors proposes that trading in redemption shares shall take place during the period October 20-29, 2021, and that the record date for the redemption of the redemption shares shall be November 2, 2021. Payment is expected to be made through Euroclear Sweden AB around November 5, 2021.

Resolution to increase the share capital through a bonus issue (item 17 c)
In order to achieve a timely and efficient redemption procedure, without having to obtain permission from the Swedish Companies Registration Office or a court of law, the Board of Directors proposes to restore the company's share capital to its original amount by increasing the company's share capital by SEK 19,262,747 through a bonus issue without issuing new shares via a transfer from the company's unrestricted equity to the company's share capital. Upon completion of the bonus issue, the company's share capital will be restored to its original amount.

The Board of Directors' explanatory statement in connection with the proposal to reduce the share capital and the auditors opinions thereon in accordance with Chapter 20, Section 8 of the Companies Act, as well as the Board of Directors' statement in accordance with Chapter 20, Section 13 of the Companies Act and the auditors' statement in accordance with Chapter 20, Section 14 of the Companies Act will be available at the company's offices in Linköping and on the company's website, investor.sectra.com/agm2021, at the latest as of August 24, 2021. Shareholders wishing to take part of these documents may notify the company, whereupon the documents will be sent by mail to the address provided.

Long term performance based incentive programs 2021, item 18

Background and motive 
As an employer, Sectra wants to both retain and recruit competent employees who are expected to contribute to the group's continued good development. The remuneration through the long-term incentive programs that are proposed shall promote well thought-out decision-making and desirable results in a manner that is in line with the company's vision and values.

The intention is to increase the participants' affiliation with the company, which is expected to be good for the company in the long term. The Board of Directors wants the employees, through the programs, to be encouraged to increase ownership in the company and has therefore proposed a share-based compensation where a condition for it to be paid is that certain criteria must be met. An increased element of co-ownership among the company's employees is expected to lead to increased loyalty towards the company. Participation in the programs is voluntary.

Due to different conditions, different practices have developed in the USA/Canada and in the rest of the world. Therefore, two programs are proposed, one for employees in the USA and Canada (NA), and another for employees in Sweden and the rest of the world (SROW).

The Board of Directors' proposal is set out in items 18 a - 18 d below. All decisions are proposed to be conditional on each other, which is why all decisions expire if any of the proposals does not receive the required majority. 

Resolution on terms and instructions for the incentive programs (item 18 a)
The Board of Directors proposes that the AGM resolves on the introduction of two new long-term incentive programs for employees within the Sectra Group; one for employees in the USA and Canada ("LTIP 2021 NA") and one for employees in Sweden and the rest of the world ("LTIP 2021 SROW") in accordance with the following (together "LTIP 2021"). LTIP 2021 will comprise a maximum of 1,000 employees in total within the Sectra Group.

In total, it is proposed that a maximum of 1,000,000 shares in the company are issued (after the split of shares, which is proposed in item 16 above), which shall be sufficient for both allocation to employees at full performance, and to cover the costs of the social security contributions that are expected to arise in connection with the allotment of the so-called Performance Shares (as defined below). To this, an assessment has been made that the average social security contributions and payroll overhead (considering all the countries in which employees whom can receive Performance Shares are located) when allotted are approximately 28% of the Performance Shares that may be allotted. This means that 780,000 newly issued shares are proposed to be available for allotment to employees and 220,000 are intended to be sold over the stock exchange to cover social security contributions and payroll overhead. In total, this means a maximum dilution of approximately 0.5% after the proposed split of shares.

Common definitions for both programs: 

1.
The Employment Condition refers to the employment conditions that employees must meet in order to be eligible to participate in the Programs, namely to be a permanent or probationary employee of the Sectra Group for at least 50% of full time at the time of the annual general meeting on 14 September 2021, provided that the person in question then has commenced his or her employment and has not resigned or been dismissed from his employment or has retired. Permanent and probationary employees who are on sick leave, on leave of absence or on parental leave are also covered by the programs. Each person can only participate in one of the programs. The Board of Directors has the right to make exceptions from these terms if, according to the Board of Directors' reasonable assessment, there are special reasons. 

2.
The Qualification Period refers to 1 January 2022 - 31 December 2026. 

3.
A Performance Share refers to a Series B share in the Company.

LTIP 2021 SROW 

Definitions: 

1.
A Share Grant refers to a right to receive a Performance Share free of charge, provided that certain conditions are met. The Board of Directors shall recalculate the number of Performance Shares that the participants may receive upon conversion of a Share Grant if the company carries out a bonus issue, split, preferential rights issue or similar measures. Such recalculation shall take place on market terms. 

2.
A Saving Share refers to a Series B share in the Company which a participant in LTIP 2021 SROW has allocated to the program no later than 31 December 2021.

Summary 
LTIP 2021 SROW is proposed to include such employees in Sweden and the rest of the world (with the exception of the USA and Canada) whom meet the Employment Condition, meaning that LTIP 2021 SROW is proposed to cover a maximum of 850 people within the Sectra Group. Persons employed after the AGM are not covered by the program. 

The participants in LTIP 2021 SROW will be allocated an individually determined number of Share Grants. To be allotted the Share Grants, the participants in LTIP 2021 SROW must have acquired Savings Shares which have been allocated by the participant to LTIP 2021 SROW and deposited in accordance with Sectra's instructions. The maximum number of Savings Shares that the participant can allocate to LTIP 2021 SROW corresponds to the maximum number of Share Grants a participant can be allotted as set out below. For each Saving Share held within the framework of LTIP 2021 SROW, the participant is given a Share Grant.

Distribution 
LTIP 2021 SROW shall comprise a maximum of 660,000 shares, which means that a maximum of the corresponding number of Share Grants can be allotted. 

Each employee shall be offered 250 Share Grants. However, a participant may choose to participate with a smaller number of Savings Shares, however a minimum of 50, as a result of which the participant instead receives a corresponding number of Share Grants. 

In addition, according to the Board of Directors' instructions, employees who (i) make extraordinarily strong contributions to the Sectra Group's development, (ii) are in senior positions, (iii) have particular specialist competence or (iv) in other ways are considered of special importance for the Sectra Group's development (the key personnel) can be allocated Share Grants for a total amount of a maximum of 25,000 Share Grants per person. 

The Board of Directors shall, no later than 15 November 2021, ensure that the terms and distribution of Share Grants are made accessible for eligible employees. Employees who wish to participate in the Program must, no later than 1 December 2021, notify as to which extent they wish to participate. Participants must ensure that Savings Shares, according to the notification, are available at a custody account designated by Sectra no later than 31 December 2021.

Terms 
Share Grants are allotted free of charge, after the participant (i) has notified in writing that he or she has joined LTIP 2021 SROW, (ii) deposited his or her Savings Shares and (iii) entered into an agreement with Sectra relating to the allotment of Share Grants and in which the terms of participation are described in more detail. 

The right to receive Performance Shares is earned during the Qualification Period.

If a Savings Share is sold during the Qualification Period, the right to the corresponding Performance Share is lost. 

Share Grants can be exercised after the end of the Qualification Period, provided that the participant has held a corresponding number of Saving Shares throughout the Qualification Period. Share Grants that do not correspond to Saving Shares shall lapse without any compensation being paid. If the participant has held less than 50 Savings

Shares during the Qualification Period, all the Participant's Share Grants lapse without the right to compensation.

In order to be able to exercise a Share Grant and thereby obtain a Performance Share, the following performance conditions ("Performance Conditions") must be met: 

a.
The participant must have fulfilled the Employment Condition during the entire Qualification Period. If the participant leaves the employment during a calendar year, the participant is not considered to have been employed at all during such calendar year, but still during previous calendar years during the Qualification Period. The more detailed conditions for participants entitlement to receive Performance Shares, even if they are leaving their employment, shall be determined by the Board of Directors.

b.
For employees in companies other than Sectra Communications AB and its subsidiaries (Sectra Communications Group), Sectra must for each calendar year during the Qualification Period have achieved 1) at least one "Best in KLAS" (in any category) and 2) first, second or third place in "Best in KLAS for PACS / Radiology for large hospitals" in the USA.

c.

In the event of transitions between the Sectra Communications Group and other companies within the Sectra Group, the criteria for the program to be applied shall apply from the nearest calendar year after the transition has taken place. 

For each calendar year during the Qualification Period that one of the above-mentioned Performance Conditions has not been met, one tenth of the participant's all Share Grants shall lapse. All Savings Shares must, however, be held during the entire Qualification Period. When allocating Performance Shares, the total sum of the number of Share Grants is rounded down to the nearest whole number. 

Allotment of Performance Shares takes place within 60 days from the end of the Qualification Period.

LTIP 2021 NA 

Summary 
LTIP 2021 NA is proposed to include such employees in the USA and Canada who meet the Employment Condition, meaning that LTIP 2021 NA is proposed to cover a maximum of 150 persons within the Sectra Group. Persons employed after the shareholder's meeting are not covered by the program. 

The participants in LTIP 2021 NA will be allocated an individually determined number of grants, so-called Performance Stock Units ("PSU") which, provided that certain conditions are met, entail a right to receive Performance Shares free of charge.

Distribution 
LTIP 2021 NA shall comprise a maximum of 120,000 shares, which means that a maximum of corresponding number of PSUs can be allotted. 
The basic offer of PSUs to be allotted is 200 PSUs per employee. 

In addition, according to the Board of Directors' instructions, employees in the USA and Canada who (i) make extraordinarily strong contributions to the Group's development, (ii) are in senior positions, (iii) have particular specialist competence or (iv) are otherwise considered to be of special importance for the development of the Sectra Group (the key personnel) can be allocated PSUs for a total number of no more than 20,000 PSUs per person. 

The Board of Directors shall, no later than 15 November 2021, ensure that the terms and distribution of PSUs are made available to entitled employees. Employees who wish to participate in the Program must notify this no later than 1 December 2021.

Terms 
The allocation of PSUs shall be made free of charge after the participant has entered into an agreement with Sectra in relation to the allocation of PSUs, in which the conditions for participation are described in more detail. Allocation must be made no later than 31 December 2021. 

A PSU gives the right to receive a Performance Share in the company free of charge, provided that certain conditions are met. 

The right to receive Performance Shares is earned during the Qualification Period. The PSUs may not be transferred, pledged or otherwise transferred to others, with the exception of the participant's estate. 

In order to be able to exercise a PSU and thereby receive a Performance Share, the following performance conditions ("Performance Conditions") must be met:

a.
The participant must have fulfilled the Employment Condition during the entire Qualification Period. If the participant leaves the employment during a calendar year, the participant is not considered to have been employed at all during such calendar year, but still during previous calendar years during the Qualification Period. The more detailed conditions for participants entitlement to receive Performance Shares, even if they are leaving their employment, shall be determined by the Board of Directors.

b.
Sectra must for each calendar year during the Qualification Period have achieved 1) at least one "Best in KLAS" (in any category) and 2) first, second or third place in the "Best in KLAS for PACS / Radiology for large hospitals in the USA (if the participant is employed in the USA) or Canada (if the participant is employed in Canada). 

For each calendar year during the Qualification Period that one of the above-mentioned Performance Conditions has not been met, one tenth of the participant's all PSUs shall lapse. In the allotment of Performance Shares, the total sum of the number of PSUs is rounded down to the nearest whole number. 

Allotment of Performance Shares takes place within 60 days from the end of the Qualification Period.

LTIP 2021 - common 

Taxation 
LTIP 2021 has been designed in such way that participants are normally taxed for the benefit of receiving shares only the income year in which the Performance Shares are received, however, the tax rules may be different in some countries where Share Grants and PSUs are granted. The taxable benefit value that arises is normally calculated as the share's market value when it is received. The benefit value is normally taxed for the participants as income from employment, which means that social security contributions will be levied on the employer.

Preparation of the proposal 
LTIP 2021 has been prepared by the company's Board of Directors in consultation with external advisors and has been processed by the Board of Directors at a meeting on 5 august 2021. 

Design and handling 
The Board of Directors shall be responsible for the detailed design and handling of LTIP 2021, within the framework of the specified terms and instructions, including provisions for recalculation in the event of changes in Sectra's capital structure such as intermediate bonus issue, merger, split, preferential rights issue and / or other similar events. In connection with this, the Board of Directors shall have the right to make adjustments to comply with special foreign rules or market conditions. If there are significant changes in the Sectra Group or its surroundings, which would mean that decided conditions for the allocation and vesting of Share Grants or PSUs according to LTIP 2021 are no longer appropriate, the Board of Directors shall have the right to make other adjustments. Before the Board of Directors decides on vesting and payment in accordance with the terms of the Share Grants or the PSUs, the Board of Directors shall determine whether the outcome from LTIP 2021 is reasonable. This determination shall be performed in relation to the company's financial results and position, the conditions on the stock market and otherwise. If the Board of Directors, in its determination, concludes that the outcome is not reasonable, the Board of Directors shall be able to reduce the number of Class B shares to be allotted. 

Receipt of Performance Shares in accordance with
LTIP 2021 and hedging measures In order to be able to implement LTIP 2021 in a cost-effective and flexible manner, the Board of Directors has considered different methods for transferring Class B shares to participants who have been allocated Share Grants and PSUs, respectively. The Board of Directors has found the most cost-effective alternative to be, and therefore proposes that the annual general meeting resolves 

a.
to amend the articles of association, including the introduction of a new class of shares, series C, and that series C shares which are held by the company through the Board of Directors may be converted into series B shares (see item 18 (b) below); 
 

b. to authorize the Board of Directors to decide on a directed issue of a maximum of 1,000,000 C shares to the participating bank, i.e. the bank that the company engages, in order to facilitate the delivery of Performance Shares and financing of costs for social security contributions under LTIP 2021 (see paragraph 18 (c) below), and
 
c. to authorize the Board of Directors to resolve on the repurchase of all issued C shares in accordance with below (see item 18 (c) below).
Following the conversion of the repurchased C shares into B shares, the B shares will be transferred partly free of charge to participants in LTIP 2021 and partly through the stock exchange to finance the costs of social security contributions related to LTIP 2021. For this purpose, the Board of Directors proposes that the annual general meeting resolves on 
 
d. the transfer of a maximum of 780,000 own B shares to participants in accordance with LTIP 2021 and a maximum of 220,000 B shares on the stock exchange to finance costs for social security contributions due to LTIP 2021 (see item 18 (d) below).

Costs and impact on important key ratios 
Assuming a share price amounting to SEK 135 (taking into account the division of shares pursuant to item 16 above) upon allotment of the Share Grants, and a share price amounting to SEK 205 (taking into account the division of shares pursuant to item 16 above) when shares are transferred upon vesting and expected outcome for LTIP 2021, the cost, including estimated costs for social security contributions, is estimated to amount to approximately SEK 120.7 million for the entire period of five years. This corresponds to approximately 14.2 percent of the Sectra Group's salary costs for 2021. The finally reported cost depends on the degree to which performance and employment conditions are met and on the value development of Sectra's share price. The costs of administering the program will be minimized and taken on an ongoing basis but is estimated to a maximum of 5% of the total scope of the program.

LTIP 2021 will be reported in accordance with IFRS 2 Share-based Payments (Sw: Aktierelaterade ersättningar) and the cost of social security contributions will be reported in accordance with UFR 7 IFRS 2 and social security contributions for listed companies (Sw: IFRS 2 och sociala avgifter för noterade företag). This means that the fair value of the Share Grants when allocating the Share Grants will be recognised as an employee cost and accrued over the vesting period, based on ongoing assessments and finally on the final outcome of the performance and employment conditions. The cost of social security contributions is accrued in a corresponding manner but on an ongoing basis and finally upon vesting based on the current share price. 

Dilution of existing shares and votes 
With a maximum allotment of Performance Shares, up to 780,000 Class B shares may be allotted to participants in accordance with LTIP 2021 and 220,000 Class B shares may be used to finance the cost of social security contributions as a result of LTIP 2021, which means a maximum dilution effect of about 0.5 percent.

Authorization for the Board of Directors to resolve upon the issue of C shares 
The Board of Directors proposes that the AGM resolves to authorize the Board of Directors to increase the company's share capital by a maximum of SEK 1,000,000 through the issue of a maximum of SEK 1,000,000 C shares, on one or more occasions, up until the AGM 2022. The new shares shall, with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, be subscribed for by such bank with which the company signs a cooperation agreement to facilitate the delivery of Performance Shares and financing of social security costs under the long-term incentive programs LTIP 2021 at a subscription price corresponding to the quota value. Payment shall be made in cash. The purpose of the authorization and the reason for the deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights in carrying out the issue is to ensure delivery of shares to participants in accordance with LTIP 2021 and to cover any social security costs due to LTIP 2021.

Authorization for the Board of Directors to resolve upon repurchase of own C shares 
The Board of Directors proposes that the AGM resolves to authorize the Board of Directors to, on one or more occasions, resolve upon the repurchase of class C shares up until the AGM 2022. Repurchases may only take place through an acquisition offer addressed to all holders of class C shares and shall include all outstanding class C shares. Acquisitions must be made at a price corresponding to the share's quota value. Payment for acquired C shares must be made in cash. The purpose of the proposed repurchase authorization is to ensure delivery of Performance Shares in accordance with the long-term performance-based incentive programs LTIP 2021 and to cover any social security costs due to LTIP 2021.

Resolution on the acquisition of class C shares may only be made provided that the company's holding at any given time does not exceed 10 percent of all shares in the company (including such shares that are acquired in accordance with item 20 below). 

Resolution on transfer of series B shares (paragraph 18 d) 
The Board of Directors proposes that the AGM resolves that (after conversion from C shares) a maximum of 780,000 class B shares may be transferred to participants in accordance with the terms of LTIP 2021, and that a maximum of 220,000 class B shares may be transferred on Nasdaq Stockholm, including by way of a financial intermediary, at a price within the price range registered at any given time, to finance social security costs in accordance with the terms of LTIP 2021.

The subscription price of the new shares shall be determined on the basis of the prevailing market price of the Class B shares at the time of the issue. The purpose of the authorization is to facilitate the use of newly issued shares in connection with the implementation of or for the financing of acquisitions of companies or businesses or parts thereof and in connection with market investments.

A valid resolution requires approval of shareholders representing at least two-thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the AGM.

Resolution regarding authorization for the Board of Directors to acquire and dispose of the company's own shares, item 20

Such shares may be acquired up to a maximum amount not at any time exceeding 10% of the total number of shares issued by the company (including such shares of Class C that are acquired pursuant to item 18 c above). Acquisitions of shares shall be made either on Nasdaq Stockholm at a purchase price within the range of share prices registered at any given time for the Class B shares, meaning the spread between the maximum buying rate and the minimum selling rate, or by way of an offer to all shareholders, whereby the purchase shall be made at a price which at the time of the decision corresponds at a minimum to the prevailing market price for the Class B shares and at a maximum to 150% of the prevailing market price for the Class B shares. The same price shall apply for Class A shares and Class B shares.

The Board of Directors also proposes that the Board of Directors shall be authorized to resolve, on one or several occasions during the period until the next AGM, to dispose all shares held by the company, via Nasdaq Stockholm or in connection with the acquisition of companies or businesses or parts thereof, in connection with market investments, for hedging costs that may arise relating to the company's incentive programs and for a continuous adaptation of the company's capital structure and thereby contributing to increased shareholders' value. The shareholders shall have a preferential right to acquire the shares in accordance with the provisions in the articles of association regarding the preferential right to subscribe for new shares, provided that the board of directors shall be entitled to deviate from the preferential right if the shares are paid for by way of set-off or if the purpose with the disposal is to secure the costs that arise as a result of the company's incentive program. A disposal of shares via Nasdaq Stockholm may only be made at a price within the range of share prices registered at any given time. 

A valid resolution requires approval of shareholders representing at least two-thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the AGM.
