PROPOSED RESOLUTIONS
Item 7 – Resolution on approval of related party transaction
The board of directors proposes that the general meeting approves the agreement entered into with Omni Aps, cvr.no 44856840, on June 11, 2024.The agreement is considered to be a material transaction with a related party to the Company within the meaning of the Swedish Securities Council’s decision AMN 2019:25. The board of directors hereby submits the following report regarding the agreement.
On May 24, 2024, the Company announced via a press release that the Company was in need of external capital to be able to continue the business. For this reason, the board of directors has been in discussions about financing the Company and strategic alternatives with major shareholders and external investors. The board of directors has during these talks learnt that the major shareholders’ interest in supporting the Company – which historically has been very strong – going forward is very limited. Discussions with external investors have not led to a solution for the Company that would ensure that the Company could continue operations and/or create value of the Company’s shareholders.
The Company has hereafter received an offer of SEK 100,000 from Omni ApS to acquire the Company’s wholly owned and Danish subsidiary, Omnicarservice Aps, cvr.no 40569820 (the “Subsidiary”), including software, programs, systems, licenses, code, rights and data, owned by the Company (the “Business Transfer”). The Business Transfer includes in essence the Company’s entire business and the board of directors has on June 11, 2024, entered into an agreement regarding the Business Transfer.
The Business Transfer is conditional upon (i) the approval of the shareholders at the general meeting with the required majority, and (ii) that certain administrative measures are executed to enable a liquidation of the Company in accordance with item 8 on the agenda.
According to AMN 2019:25, the Company and Omni ApS are considered to be related parties since Omni ApS is 100 percent owned by the Company’s CEO, Mikkel Kofod Christensen.
The board of directors has carefully considered alternatives for the Company's continued operations and in light of the considerable debt held by the Company totaling approximately MSEK 16, finds that the only alternative to the Business Transfer, is to apply for bankruptcy of the Company and the Subsidiary. The board of directors therefore proposes that the general meeting approves the Business Transfer and decides to liquidate the Company in accordance with item 8 on the agenda.
The resolution is conditional upon the general meeting resolving in accordance with item 8 on the agenda.
Resolutions in accordance with this item require that the resolution is supported by shareholders representing at least half of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the meeting, however, that the shares and votes held, directly or indirectly, by Mikkel Kofod Christensen shall not be taken into account.
Item 8 – Resolution on whether the Company shall be liquidated
The board of directors propose that the general meeting resolves that the Company shall be liquidated. The Company has faced a challenging market situation at the same time as the Company has been in need of external financing. The board of directors has been working for a long time to create the conditions for further financing or other to find strategic alternatives. After consultation with major shareholders in the Company, the board of directors has found that the major shareholders’ interest in financing the business in the future is very limited. The Business Transfer, described under item 7 on the agenda, has proven to be the only alternative to bankruptcy for the Company. After the Business Transfer, no business will remain in the Company. The board of directors therefore proposes that the Company be liquidated. The board of directors assesses that there is no alternative to liquidation besides applying for bankruptcy.
The resolution on liquidation is proposed to apply from the date on which the Swedish Companies Registration Office has appointed a liquidator.
The board of directors' preliminary assessment is, based on currently known conditions, that it will not be possible to distribution any funds to the shareholders after liquidation costs have been paid. Any distribution, should funds be available, is expected to take place in connection with the expiry of the time for summoning unknown creditors or at the latest in connection with the presentation of the liquidator's final accounts.
Peter Kullgren, attorney at Advokatfirman Lindahl KB, is proposed as liquidator and has declared his willingness to take on the assignment.
The board of directors proposes that the general meeting authorizes the chairman of the board to take the measures required for the registration of the resolution with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.
The resolution is conditional upon the general meeting resolving in accordance with item 7 on the agenda.
