Item 3 – Preparation and approval of the voting list

Item 6 – Resolution to to adopt the long-term incentive program 2022 and authorisation for the Board to resolve on transfer of own shares
The Board of Directors proposes that the General Meeting resolves to adopt a performance-based incentive program for certain employees in IAR (”LTI 2022”) in accordance with item 6 (a), (b) and (c) below. The proposal mainly corresponds to the proposal presented at the Annual General Meeting 26 April 2022.

The purpose of the proposal is to create conditions to retain and increase motivation among senior executives, employees and other key individuals in the Company. The Board believes that it is in the interest of all shareholders that senior executives, employees, and other key individuals, which are deemed to be important for the development of the Company, have a long-term interest in a positive growth of the Company's share price. Through the proposed program, a long-term ownership commitment is created, which is expected to stimulate an in-creased interest in the business and the Company’s performance in general.
The LTI 2022 have a three-year program term and implies that the participants are allocated Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) which gives the right to acquire IAR shares.


The detailed terms and principles of the LTI 2022 are described below.

Item 6 (a) – Adoption of LTI 2022
For LTI 2022, the following terms and conditions shall apply:
A maximum of 140 000 RSUs may be allotted to participants in LTI 2022. Allotment of RSUs can be made from the Extraordinary General Meeting 2022 until the Annual General Meeting 2023.

A maximum of 140 employees shall be allowed to participate in LTI 2022. The participants are divided into four categories based on their respective roles in the Company. The distribution of RSUs is shown below:
– Category 1: The CEO may be offered a maximum of 10,000 RSUs.
– Category 2: Management, consisting of 11 employees, may be offered a total of a max-imum of 42,000 RSUs, whereby each employee within the category may be offered a maximum of 3,800 RSUs.
– Category 3: Key employees, consisting of 35 employees, may be offered a total of a maximum of 42,000 RSUs, whereby each employee within the category may be offered a maximum of 1,250 RSUs.
– Category 4: Other key individuals and employees, consisting of 90 persons, may be offered a total of a maximum of 46,000 RSUs, whereby each employee within the cate-gory may be offered a maximum of 550 RSUs.

The allotted RSUs are vested with one-third each year from the time of the first allotment. Exer-cise of the RSUs can only take place three years from the first time of allotment. Allotment of RSUs is in each case conditional upon (i) that the participant’s employment or as-signment in the Company has not been terminated, with certain exceptions, and (ii) that the participant has entered a separate agreement concerning the RSUs with the Company. The Board shall ensure that the agreements with the participants contain terms and conditions that prohibit the transfer or pledge of the RSUs and that stipulates that unvested RSUs will, with certain exceptions, be forfeited should the participant’s employment or assignment in the Com-pany be terminated.

If a participant's employment is terminated due to the participant's termination or breach of con-tract, all RSUs shall lapse immediately and not be exercisable. If the employment is terminated for other reasons, earned RSUs can be exercised, but the right to RSUs that have not yet been granted or earned ceases to apply. The Board has the right to deviate from the above in individ-ual cases. Final terms shall be decided by the Board and regulated in separate RSU agreements

The RSUs shall be allotted to the participants free of charge.

Target 1 Annual sales growth. If the target level is reached, the allocation will amount to 100%. If the performance outcome is below the target level but exceeds the minimum level, a proportionate allocation of RSUs will be made.

Target 2 Annual EBIT margin shall amount to the minimum level.

The calculation of the LTI 2022 RSU outcome for each Participant in relation to maximum per-formance value shall be connected to Company related performance targets established by the Board, or other similar metrics deemed appropriate by the Board* The performance target adopted by the Board will stipulate a minimum level, a target level, and a maximum level, that may be adjusted if deemed appropriate.

*With a possibility for the Board to make adjustments for extraordinary events.

No allotment of RSUs will take place if the outcome amounts to or is below the minimum level for both performance targets.
The Board will decide on the outcome of the established performance target during the first quarter of 2025. The performance targets are measured over a three-year period. Provided that the RSUs have been allotted and vested, each RSU grants the holder a right to, during the period from 1st September 2025, up to and including 1st October 2025, as decided by the Company, acquire one (1) share in the Company.
Participation in LTI 2022 is in each case conditional upon the participation being legally possible as well as possible with reasonable administrative costs and financial efforts based on the Com-pany’s assessment.

The Board shall be responsible for the agreements with the participants and the administration of LTI 2022. In connection therewith, the Board has the right to make adjustments in order to adjust to certain rules or market conditions outside of Sweden. Further, in extraordinary cases, the Board is entitled to limit the extent of LTI 2022 or terminate the program in advance, in whole or in part.
The number of shares that may be acquired for each RSU shall be recalculated in the event of share splits, rights issues and similar corporate actions with the aim of keeping the economic value of an RSU is unaffected by such actions.

Dilution and costs
The maximum dilution effect of LTI 2022, not taking into account the transfer of shares to cover social costs in accordance with paragraph 6 (c), amounts to 1.0 percent of the total num-ber of shares and votes in the Company.
The RSUs will be regarded as personnel costs during the vesting period, without any impact on the Company’s cash flow. If the RSUs are exercised, LTI 2022 may also entail costs in the form of social security contributions. The total costs for the social security contributions will de-pend, partially on the participant’s employment or assignment form in the Company, partially on the number of RSUs that will be vested, and partially on the value of the benefit that the participant finally receives, i.e., on the value of the RSUs when exercised in 2025. The costs due to social security contributions will be accrued over the vesting period. The Company in-tends to hedge the entire cost of the social security contributions through an allocation of al-ready held IAR shares, in accordance with the Board’s proposal in item 6 (c) below, which may be exercised by a financial third party in connection with the exercise of the RSUs. If the Com-pany creates such a hedge structure, the costs for social security contributions will not affect the Company’s cash flow.

Based on the assumption that all RSUs in LTI 2022 are vested, an assumed share price of SEK 176,4 when the RSUs are exercised, and an assumed average social security rate of ap-proximately 20% percent, the total costs for the program including social security contributions will amount to approximately MSEK 21 which yearly corresponds to approximately 3.2 percent of the Company’s salary costs for employees (including social security contributions) for the 2021 financial year.

Preparation of proposal
The Board has prepared LTI 2022 in consultation with external advisors.

Item 6 (b) - transfer of own shares to the Participants
The Board proposes that the Extraordinary General Meeting shall resolve on transfer of the Company’s own shares to the Participants in accordance with the following:
– IAR shall have the right to transfer up to 140 000 shares, free of charge, to the Partici-pants under the terms and conditions of the LTI 2022.
– The number of shares has been calculated on the basis of maximum participation and maximum fulfilment of performance targets.

Item 6 (c) - transfer of own shares on a regulated market
The Board proposes that the Extraordinary General Meeting shall resolve to authorise the Board to, during the period until the Annual General Meeting 2025, resolve on transfer of the Company’s own shares in accordance with the following:
– A maximum of 26,600 shares may be transferred to cover social costs
– Transfer shall only be made on a regulated market or in a market corresponding to a regulated market outside the European Economic Area.
– Transfer shall only be made at a price which is within the at any time recorded regis-tered price interval, which shall refer to the interval between the highest buying price and the lowest selling price.
– Payment for the shares shall be made in cash.
The reason for the Board’s proposal is that the Company shall have the opportunity to secure the costs for social security contributions related to LTI 2022.
