The Board's proposal

Item 9b - Resolution regarding the treatment of the Company's result in accordance with the adopted balance sheet The Board of Directors proposes that retained earnings plus profit for the year is carried forward. 

Item 15 - Resolution regarding authorizing the Board of Directors to resolve to issue shares 

The board of directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting until the next Annual General Meeting authorizes the Board of Directors, with or without deviation from the shareholders’ preferential right, on one or more occasions, to resolve on issuance of a maximum of 880,000 shares, meaning an increase of the share capital of a maximum of SEK 88,000, corresponding to a dilution of about 10 per cent of the share capital and voting rights. The purpose of the authorization is to enable acquisitions and fundraisings. It shall be possible to pay by kind, set-off or otherwise be subject to conditions. Deviation from the shareholders’ preferential right shall be allowed to be made in a situation where it is objectively regarded to be in the shareholders' best interest to deviate from the preferential right. Reasons for such a deviation may include that a rights issue runs the risk of not being fully subscribed, the costs and timing or a desire in the Company's interest to bring one or more major shareholders into the Company. The issue price shall be set at market conditions and a customary discount may be offered. A valid resolution requires that shareholders at the meeting representing at least 2/3 of the numbers of shares and votes represented votes in favor of the proposal. 

Item 16 - Resolution regarding adoption of guidelines for remuneration to senior executives

The Board's proposal for guidelines for remuneration to senior executives includes the following items. Senior executives include the CEO and other members of the executive management team. Compensation levels should be competitive and negotiated annually. The CEO and other senior executives are remunerated partly by a fixed monthly salary and partly through variable compensation based on the groups profitability. Variable compensation shall be calculated quarterly by 10 percent on the portion of operating income that exceeds an operating margin of 5 percent. This 5 percent operating margin reduction however does not apply when/while there is negative carried balance due to losses in previous periods. The variable compensation will be distributed such that 40 percent shall accrue to the Company's CEO and the remaining 60 percent can be allocated to the executive management team. A potential operating loss in a quarter reduces the calculation basis for variable compensation in subsequent quarters. The CEO's and the management's overall variable compensation for the year may not exceed 60 percent of each person's annual salary and is not included in the base for pension benefits. The pension plan is to be in line with normal conditions in the market and the same for senior executives as for other employees. The pension premium shall be defined contribution. Similarly, other benefits for senior executives shall be competitive and in substance the same as for other employees. The employment agreements with senior executives shall contain a notice period of at least 3 months for the employees and a maximum of 12 months from the Company. Upon termination by the Company a severance pay may at most be equal to the fixed monthly salary for 12 months. The Chairman of the Board negotiates the yearly remuneration of the CEO and concludes agreements after approval from the board. The CEO negotiates compensation to senior executives and concludes agreements after approval by the Board. The Board may, if special reasons for doing so exist, make minor changes on an individual basis from the above guidelines.

Item 17 - The Board’s proposal to issue warrants

The annual general meeting 2015 adopted a share-based incentive plan for the period 2015-2017 with an annual allocation (the “Plan”). 

In accordance with the general terms laid down in respect of the Program, the Board of Directors proposes that the annual general shareholders’ meeting 2016 resolves to issue warrants according to the following general terms:

• The number of warrants – to be issued – shall be, at the most, 176 000.
• The right to acquire warrants shall, with deviation from the shareholder’s preferential right, belong to executives and key employees in the group. Subscription for the warrants shall be made between June 3, 2016, and June 10, 2016. Subscription shall be made through payment.
• The premium for the warrants shall be correspondent with the market value of the warrants according to an evaluation with application of a recognized evaluation formula (the Black & Scholes-formula). The period of measurement for the calculation of the premium of the option with application of the Black & Scholes-formula shall proceed between May 20, 2016, and June 2, 2016.
• The warrants may be exercised between June 10, 2019 and September 10, 2019.
• Each warrant gives the holder a right to subscribe for one (1) share in the Company to a strike price amounting to 300 percent of the volume weighted average of the listed settled prices - during the period between May 20, 2016, and June 2, 2016 – on Nasdaq Stockholm for shares in G5 Entertainment AB (publ.) (however, not lower than the share’s quote value, being 0.1 SEK). Days at which no paid price is quoted shall be excluded from the calculation.
• In case all warrants are exercised, at the most 176,000 shares may be issued (with reservation for possible recalculation), which corresponds to approximately two percent of the total number of outstanding shares and votes. At full exercise, the Company’s share capital will increase with 17,600 SEK with a dilution of two percent. The calculation is based on the number of shares and votes which, at the most, may be issued divided with the total number of shares and votes subsequent to such issue. Shares which are held by the Company shall be included when calculating the total number of outstanding shares.     
• The Program shall include maximum 20 persons. The proportion between the number of warrants which the employee is offered to subscribe for shall vary depending on the employee’s responsibilities and position. The CEO and the group chief executive shall be offered, at the most, 20,000 warrants and the other key employees shall be divided into categories where an individual person shall be offered, at the most, 20,000 warrants and, at the least, 5,000 warrants. The board of directors shall determine which persons who shall be included in the respective category and which persons who shall be entitled to be allocated warrants. Except for the CEO, the members of the Board of Directors shall not have a right to subscribe for warrants.
• Allocation of warrants to employees outside of Sweden is dependent on fiscal effects, that no legal restrictions apply and that the board of directors assesses that such allocation can be carried through with reasonable administrative and/or economic resources.
• The allocation of warrants is subject to that the employee has signed a pre-emption agreement with the Company. Shares to be offered under the pre-emption agreement shall be offered at market value in the event of a take-over offer by a third party of all shares in the Company and prior to any transfer of warrants to a third party. In other situations, the warrants are freely transferable. 
• The costs related to the Program (allocation 2016) are calculated to amount to about 100 000 SEK. The Program (allocation 2016) is not assessed to materially affect the Company’s profit per share.

The reasons for the deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights are to raise the motivation and create participation in respect of executives and key employees concerning possibilities and risks related to the Company’s development.

This proposal has been prepared by the Board of Directors of the Company. The CEO did not participate in the preparation of this proposal.

A valid resolution requires that shareholders at the Meeting representing both at least 9/10 of the number of votes cast and the number of shares represented voting for the proposal. Terms and conditions regarding the warrants are available on the Company’s website.

The Board of Directors of the Company, or someone appointed by the board, is hereby authorized to make minor changes of these terms, which may be required when registering the program with the Swedish Companies Registration Office (Sw: “Bolagsverket”).
