Acquisitions may be made of such a number of shares that Surgical Science Sweden AB (publ) holds no more than one-tenth of all outstanding shares in the company. The annual general meeting noted that the current regulations for Nasdaq First North Growth Market do not permit companies whose share is listed there to carry out acquisitions or transfers of own shares. The authorization is therefore intended to enable such acquisitions and transfers if and when regulatory changes occur or if the company's share is admitted to trading on a regulated market where such acquisitions and transfers are permitted.
