Proposals by the Nomination Committee

The Nomination Committee consists of Jorgen Durban, Chairman of the Nomination Committee, representing Erik Fallstrom/Achilles Capital AB, Todd Thomson, representing Kairos Ventures, Andre Netzen Orn, representing Cicero Fonder, and Bami Bastani, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Sivers Semiconductors AB. The Nomination Committee has presented the following proposed resolutions to items 1 and 6 in the proposed agenda.

Election of Chairman of the Meeting (item 1)

The Nomination Committee proposes that advokat Jorgen S. Axelsson is elected as Chairman of the Meeting.

Election of auditor (item 6)

The Nomination Committee proposes that the assignment of the Company's auditor Deloitte AB is terminated before the end of its term of office, with effect from the close of the Extraordinary General Meeting, and that the registered public accounting firm Ernst & Young AB is elected as auditor for the period until the close of the next Annual General Meeting. The number of auditors shall remain unchanged and the auditor's fees shall continue to be paid in accordance with approved invoices.

Deloitte AB has been the Company's auditor for ten years. Under Article 17 of Regulation (EU) No 537/2014, the audit engagement of a public-interest entity may as a general rule not exceed ten consecutive years. The proposal follows a recommendation by the Audit Committee to change audit firm after ten years of service, which the Nomination Committee approved unanimously. The Nomination Committee considers it appropriate to establish a new long-term audit relationship with a Big Four firm in view of the Company's growth, its increasing international presence and its preparations for a potential dual listing of the shares in the United States, expected to be completed during the first half of 2027. Ernst & Young AB has extensive experience of Swedish listed companies with U.S. capital markets activities and SEC reporting requirements. The proposal is not based on any disagreement regarding the Company's accounting or financial reporting, and the Nomination Committee considers that the circumstances constitute objective grounds under Chapter 9, Section 22 of the Swedish Companies Act (2005:551).

The proposal has been prepared in accordance with Article 16 of that Regulation and is in accordance with the recommendation of the Audit Committee. A resolution pursuant to this item is valid if approved by shareholders representing more than half of the votes cast.

Proposals by the Board of Directors

Resolution on a long-term incentive program (item 7)

For the purpose of improving the opportunity for retaining and recruiting competent personnel to the Sivers Semiconductors Group (the "Group") and increasing the motivation amongst the employees, the Board of Directors proposes that the Extraordinary General Meeting resolves to introduce an incentive program (the "P11") for employees of the Group. P11 can be allotted to employees in the United States, Scotland, Sweden, India and China. These are the countries in which the Group conducts its operations and employs personnel, and the participation of employees in all of these countries on equal terms is intended to support a consistent group-wide approach to retention and recruitment. Board members who are not employed by the Group shall not be entitled to participate in P11.

Background and rationale

In preparing the proposal, the Company has engaged with shareholders and proxy advisors and has benchmarked the proposal against prevailing Swedish market practice for long-term incentive programs. P11 has been designed in the light of that feedback.

The rationale for the proposal for P11 is to improve the conditions for retaining and recruiting competent personnel to the Group and increasing the motivation of the employees. Furthermore, more visible opportunities are established for long-term participation in the Group's operations and in reaching the Company's overall targets. The Board of Directors is of the opinion that the introduction of P11 as described above benefits the Group and the Company's shareholders. The structure of P11, under which no options vest or become exercisable before the third anniversary of the date of grant, has been adopted in order to ensure that P11 is sufficiently long-term in nature and consistent with prevailing Swedish market practice and the expectations of institutional shareholders and proxy advisors.

General

P11 consists of stock options intended for the employees of the Group (the "Stock Options").
