Articles of Association

§ 1 Company

The company’s company is Gapwaves AB (publ).

§ 2 Registered office

The board shall have its seat in the municipality of Gothenburg.

§ 3 Operation

The company’s operations are to drive the development and sale of microwave millimeter and submillimeter components and licenses for associated patent rights in an international market and to engage in activities compatible therewith.

§ 4 Share capital

The share capital must be a minimum of SEK 1,075,000 and a maximum of SEK 4,300,000.

§ 5 Number of shares

The number of shares shall be a minimum of 17,900,000 and a maximum of 71,600,000.

The shares may be issued in two series, Series A and Series B. Each Series A share entitles to ten votes and each Series B share entitles to one vote. Series A and Series B shares can be issued for a number corresponding to the entire share capital.

If the company decides to issue new Series A and Series B shares through a cash issue or set-off issue, owners of Series A and Series B shares shall have a preferential right to subscribe for new shares of the same class in relation to the number of shares previously held by the holder (primary preferential right). Shares that are not subscribed for with primary preferential rights shall be offered to all shareholders for subscription (subsidiary preferential rights). If shares thus offered are not sufficient for the subscription that takes place with subsidiary preferential rights, the shares shall be distributed among the subscribers in proportion to the number of shares they previously own, insofar as this cannot be done, by drawing lots.

If the company decides to issue new shares of only series A or series B through a cash issue or set-off issue, all shareholders, regardless of whether their shares are of series A or series B, shall have a preferential right to subscribe for new shares in relation to the number of shares they previously own.

If the company decides to issue warrants or convertibles through a cash issue or set-off issue, shareholders have a preferential right to subscribe for warrants, as if the issue concerned the shares that may be subscribed for due to the option right and preferential right to subscribe for convertibles as if the issue concerned the convertible shares will be replaced with.

What has been said above shall not entail any restriction on the possibility of making a decision on a cash issue or set-off issue with deviation from shareholders’ preferential rights.

In the event of an increase in the share capital through a bonus issue, new shares shall be issued for each share class in relation to the number of shares of the same type that already exist. In this case, old shares of a certain class of shares shall carry the right to new shares of the same class of shares. What has now been said shall not entail any restriction on the possibility of carrying out a bonus issue, after the necessary amendment of the Articles of Association, to issue shares of a new type.

At the request of a shareholder, Series A shares (one or more) belonging to that shareholder shall be converted into the corresponding number of Series B shares. The request for conversion, which shall be in writing and state the number of shares to be converted, shall be made to the Board. The conversion must then be reported without delay for registration with the Swedish Companies Registration Office and is executed when it is registered in the limited liability company register and entered in the record register.
