Item 8 - Resolution to approve the board of directors' decision on a directed share issue

The board of directors proposes that the general meeting approves the resolution made by the board of directors on 5 April 2024, on a new issue of a maximum of 74,136,510 shares, entailing a maximum increase of the share capital of SEK 3,706,825.50, and a new issue of a maximum of 370,682,550 warrants of series TO 2 entitling to subscription of 370,682,550 shares in the Company, whereby the share capital may increase by an additional maximum of SEK 18,534,127.50 if all issued warrants of series TO 2 are exercised. In total, the share capital may increase by a maximum of SEK 22,240,953.00.

The issues shall be treated as one resolution and be carried out through the issuance of so-called units. One (1) unit consists of one (1) new share and five (5) warrants of series TO 2.

Otherwise, the following conditions shall apply.

The right to subscribe for units shall, with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, vest with Ribbskottet AB, Per Olof Ejendal AB, Kåre Gilstring, Robert Molander, MLJK Konsult AB, Klintemar Konsult AB, Jesper Hoiland, Fredrik Mattsson, Stefan Hansson, Theodor Invest AB, Ulti AB, Van Herk Investments B.V., Morningside Group AB, Viktor Drvota and Eric Terhaerdt. Oversubscription may not occur.
The Company's board of directors has made an overall evaluation and carefully considered raising the necessary capital only through a rights issue, but has made the assessment that, for several reasons, it is more favorable for the Company and the shareholders to partially raise capital in the capital raising through a directed issue. Among other things, the directed issue reduces the need for guarantee commitments in the rights issue. The Company's board of directors has in this context also noted the discounts at which rights issues on the Swedish stock market are usually carried out and assesses that a rights issue, without the directed issue, would probably have been carried out at a lower subscription price and exposed the Company and the shareholders to a higher market risk for a longer period of time. The directed issue also contributes to strengthening the shareholder base in the Company with international institutional investors, which is considered positive in a long-term perspective. Since the subscription price in the directed issue was determined by the board of directors based on arms-length discussions with investors at a price corresponding to the closing price of the Company's share on Nasdaq First North Growth Market on 4 April 2024, it is the board of directors' assessment that the subscription price in the directed issue therefore reflects current market conditions and demand. Conclusively, the directed issue is deemed to be in the interest of the Company and all shareholders.
The subscription price for each unit is SEK 0.42, corresponding to a subscription price of SEK 0.42 per share. The amount that exceeds the share's quota value shall be transferred to the unrestricted premium reserve. Warrants of series TO 2 are issued free of charge. The subscription price has been determined based on an assessment of the current market situation, the historical development of the business and the Company's business prospects.
Subscription of units shall be made no later than on 13 May 2024. Payment shall be made no later than on 15 May 2024. The board of directors shall have the right to extend the time for subscription and payment.
One (1) warrant of series TO 2 gives the holder the right to subscribe for one (1) new share in the Company against a cash payment amounting to SEK 0.42 per share. The amount that exceeds the quota value of the shares shall be transferred to the unrestricted premium reserve. Warrants of series TO 2 may be exercised during the period from and including 3 April 2029 up to and including 17 April 2029.
Complete terms and conditions for warrants of series TO 2 are available at the Company's website, www.scibase.com.
The new shares issued in the directed issue shall carry a right to dividends commencing on the first record date that occurs after the registration of the shares with the Swedish Companies Registration Office and the entry of the shares in the share register kept by Euroclear Sweden AB. Shares issued as a result of exercise of warrants of series TO 2 shall carry a right to dividends commencing on the first record date that occurs after the interim registration of the shares in the share register kept by Euroclear Sweden AB.

The resolution is conditional upon that the general meeting resolves in accordance with item 7. A valid resolution requires that the resolution is supported by shareholders representing at least two thirds of the votes cast as well as of the shares represented at the general meeting.

Item 9 - Resolution to approve the board of directors' decision on a directed share issue with subscriber covered by Chapter 16 of the Swedish Companies Act

The board of directors proposes that the general meeting approves the resolution made by the board of directors on 5 April 2024, on a new issue of a maximum of 3,755,259 shares, entailing a maximum increase of the share capital of SEK 187,762.95, and a new issue of a maximum of 18,776,295 warrants of series TO 2 entitling to subscription of 18,776,295 shares in the Company, whereby the share capital may increase by an additional maximum of SEK 938,814.75 if all issued warrants of series TO 2 are exercised. In total, the share capital may increase by a maximum of SEK 1,126,577.70.

The issues shall be treated as one resolution and be carried out through the issuance of so-called units. One (1) unit consists of one (1) new share and five (5) warrants of series TO 2.

Otherwise, the following conditions shall apply.

The right to subscribe for the shares shall, with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, vest in the board member Matt Leavitt, who is covered by Chapter 16 in the Swedish Companies Act (2005:551) (the so-called Leo act). Oversubscription may not occur.
The Company's board of Directors has made an overall evaluation and carefully considered raising the necessary capital only through a rights issue, but has made the assessment that, for several reasons, it is more favorable for the Company and the shareholders to partially raise capital in the capital raising through a directed issue. Among other things, the directed issue reduces the need for guarantee commitments in the rights issue.

The subscription price has been determined based on an assessment of the current market situation, the historical development of the business and the Company's business prospects.
Subscription of units shall be made no later than on 13 May 2024. Payment shall be made no later than on 15 May 2024. The board of directors shall have the right to extend the time for subscription and payment.
One (1) warrant of series TO 2 gives the holder the right to subscribe for one (1) new share in the Company against a cash payment amounting to SEK 0.42 per share. The amount that exceeds the quota value of the shares shall be transferred to the unrestricted premium reserve.

Complete terms and conditions for warrants of series TO 2 are available at the Company's website, www.scibase.com.
The new shares issued in the directed issue shall carry a right to dividends commencing on the first record date that occurs after the registration of the shares with the Swedish Companies Registration Office and the entry of the shares in the share register kept by Euroclear Sweden AB. Shares issued as a result of exercise of warrants of series TO 2 shall carry a right to dividends commencing on the first record date that occurs after the interim registration of the shares in the share register kept by Euroclear Sweden AB.

The resolution is conditional on that the general meeting also resolves in accordance with items 7. A valid resolution requires that the resolution is supported by shareholders representing at least nine tenths of the votes cast as well as of the shares represented at the general meeting.
