Special arrangements in view of the outbreak of the novel corona virus and COVID-19

The continued spread of the novel corona virus and COVID-19 remains difficult to assess with any certainty. At the time of the issuance of this notice, the Swedish government has introduced restrictions on public gatherings of more than 50 participants. Kinnevik is mindful of the health of our shareholders and will comply with any applicable restrictions and limitations. If there is a risk that the number of people present at the Annual General Meeting will exceed the restrictions and limitations for gatherings applicable at the time, Kinnevik may decide to postpone the Annual General Meeting until a later date. Further, as a precautionary measure Kinnevik has decided - in consultation with experts and in response to feedback from concerned shareholders - to implement special arrangements at the 2020 Annual General Meeting. Such arrangements include, among other things, that Kinnevik's Chief Executive Officer, Georgi Ganev, Chairman of the Board, Dame Amelia Fawcett, and Chairman of the Nomination Committee, Cristina Stenbeck, will not give their customary presentations to the Annual General Meeting in person this year, and that no food or beverages will be served.

Kinnevik is closely monitoring the impact of the outbreak of the novel corona virus and COVID-19 in Sweden, and in case of updated government instructions or recommendations from relevant authorities, Kinnevik may decide on additional precautionary measures in connection with the 2020 Annual General Meeting. Information and updates on the special arrangements can be found on Kinnevik's website at www.kinnevik.com under the heading "General Meetings" (which can be found under the section "Governance").
