Resolution on guidelines for remuneration to senior executives (item 16)

Introduction
The board proposes the following guidelines for remuneration to senior executives in the INVISIO group and members of the board in the parent company, to the extent they receive remuneration that is not related to their board assignment, to be in force until further notice but not later than until the Annual General Meeting 2028. These guidelines apply to agreements concluded after the 2024 Annual General Meeting's resolution and where amendments are made to existing agreements after that time. These guidelines do not apply to any remuneration decided by the general meeting.

The guidelines' promotion of the company's business strategy, long-term interests and sustainability
INVISIO's business strategy for profitable growth is in brief to increase the penetration in existing markets, broaden the product portfolio through innovative development, address new user groups, expand to new geographies and to conduct business sustainably and cost-effectively. INVISIO's financial targets are that the company's turnover are to increase on average by 20 per cent per year and that the operating margin should exceed 15 per cent. For additional information regarding the company's business strategy, please see INVISIO's website www.invisio.com.

A prerequisite for the successful implementation of the company's business strategy and safeguarding of its long-term interests, including its sustainability, is that INVISIO is able to recruit and retain qualified personnel. INVISIO shall, therefore, seek to offer a total remuneration that enables the group to attract and retain senior executives. Remuneration to senior executives in INVISIO shall both on a short and a long term basis, be based on the individual's performance and responsibility and the result of INVISIO and its subsidiaries as well as align the interests and rewards of the senior executives with the shareholders'.

Variable cash remuneration covered by these guidelines shall aim at promoting the company's business strategy and long-term interests, including its sustainability.

Types of remuneration, etc.
Remuneration to the senior executives may consist of:

  • fixed salary,
  • short-term variable cash remuneration,
  • opportunity to participate in long-term share- or share price-related incentive plans, and
  • pension and other benefits.

Fixed salary
The fixed salary to the senior executives is revised annually and shall be competitive and based on the individual's competence, responsibility and performance.

Variable remuneration
The variable cash remuneration to the senior executives shall be based on how well the targets set for their respective area of responsibility, INVISIO and its subsidiaries are met. The result shall be linked to measurable targets (qualitative, quantitative, general and individual). The target components, weighting and target levels may vary from one year to the next to reflect business priorities and they generally balance the group's financial targets and non-financial targets (for example operational, strategic, environmental, social or other targets related to sustainability). The measurement period for variable remuneration shall, as a general rule, be based on performance over a period of approximately twelve months. The targets within each senior executive's respective area of responsibility aims to encourage the development of INVISIO both on a short and a long-term basis.

To which extent the criteria for awarding variable cash remuneration has been satisfied shall be evaluated/determined when the measurement period has ended. The remuneration committee is responsible for the evaluation regarding variable cash remuneration to senior executives. The board is entitled to disregard the fulfillment of the criteria and adjust the payment of variable remuneration both upwards and downwards based on actual progress during the year. Additional cash variable remuneration may be paid in exceptional circumstances, provided that such extraordinary arrangements are made only at an individual level as compensation for extraordinary work in addition to the person's ordinary duties. The total variable remuneration shall not exceed 60 per cent of the fixed salary and shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, not affect pension or holiday allowance.

Share- and share price-related incentive programs
The general meeting may, irrespective of these guidelines, resolve on share- and share price-related incentive programs to senior executives, i.e. the management of the company.

The Annual General Meetings 2022 and 2023 resolved on adopting stock option programs. The programs have been resolved by the general meeting and are therefore excluded from these guidelines. The objective of the stock option programs is to link a portion of the employees' remuneration to the long-term performance of INVISIO, and thereby align their interests with those of the shareholders. For additional information regarding incentive programs including the criteria on which the outcome is depended on, please see INVISIO's website www.invisio.com.

Pension and other benefits
Any pension benefit of the senior executives shall be based on defined contribution pension plans and comply with or correspond to, and therefore be limited to, general pension plans, the ITP plan in Sweden. For employments governed by rules other than Swedish, pension benefits and other benefits may be duly adjusted for compliance with mandatory rules or established local practice, taking into account, to the extent possible, the overall purpose of these guidelines.

Senior executives' non-monetary benefits shall facilitate the work of senior executives and correspond to what may be deemed reasonable in relation to standard practice on the market in which each senior executive operates.

Termination of employment
The CEO has a period of notice of twelve months when termination is made by the company and of eight months when termination is made by the CEO. Other senior executives have a period of notice of six months when termination is made by the company and of three months when termination is made by the senior executive himself/herself. No severance pay is payable upon termination, only salary during the notice period.

Salary and employment conditions for employees
In the preparation of the board's proposal for these remuneration guidelines, salary and employment conditions for employees of the company have been taken into account by including information on the employees' total income, the components of the remuneration and increase and growth rate over time, in the remuneration committee's and the board's

basis of decision when evaluating whether the guidelines and the limitations set out herein are reasonable.

Remuneration to board members in addition to board remunerations decided by the general meeting
Board members elected by the general meeting shall in specific cases be able to receive a fee for services within their respective area of expertise which does not constitute board work. For such services shall be paid a market based fee, which shall be approved by the board. These guidelines are applicable on such fees.

The decision-making process to determine, review and implement the guidelines The board has established a remuneration committee. The committee's tasks include preparing the board' decision to propose guidelines for remuneration to senior executives and any decision to derogate from the guidelines. The board shall prepare a proposal for new guidelines at least every fourth year and submit it to the Annual General Meeting. The guidelines shall be in force until new guidelines are adopted by the general meeting.

The remuneration committee shall also monitor and evaluate programs for variable remuneration for the executive management, the application of the guidelines for remuneration to senior executives as well as the current remuneration structures and compensation levels in the company. The members of the remuneration committee are independent of the company and its executive management. The CEO and other members of the executive management do not participate in the board' processing of and resolutions regarding remuneration-related matters in so far as they are affected by such matters.

Deviations from the guidelines
The board is entitled to deviate, in whole or in part, from the guidelines for remuneration to senior executives set out above if it determines that there are specific reasons in an individual case and a derogation is necessary to serve the company's long-term interests, including its sustainability, or to ensure the company's financial viability. If such a deviation takes place, it shall be disclosed in the remuneration report before the following Annual General Meeting.

Presentation of the remuneration report for approval (item 17)
The board proposes that the Annual General Meeting approves the board's report regarding remuneration för the financial year 2023 pursuant to Chapter 8, Section 53 a of the Swedish Companies Act.

Resolution regarding authorisation for the board to resolve to issue new shares (item 18)
The board proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves on authorisation for the board to resolve to issue new shares in accordance with the following.

The board shall be authorised to resolve to issue new shares on one or several occasions for the period up to the next Annual General Meeting, to the extent that such new issue can be made without amending the articles of association. An issue may be made with or without deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights. Based on the authorisation, the board may resolve to issue a number of new shares corresponding to a maximum of ten per cent of the total number of outstanding shares in the company at the time of the Annual General Meeting.

The board shall be authorised to resolve on issue where payment is made in cash, by contribution in kind or by way of set-off. A cash issue or issue by way of set-off that takes place with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights shall be in line with market terms.

The purpose of the authorisation and the reasons for any deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights is to, in a cost-effective manner, enable the raising of capital for expansion, investments and company acquisitions.

Resolution in accordance with the board's proposal requires approval of at least two thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the general meeting.
