of the rights issue to better reflect the current ownership of the Company.
Draft resolutions under items 2, 10-13 on the proposed Agenda will be presented
at the latest in connection with the Annual General Meeting, provided that a
Nomination Committee has been established.


Proposals of the Board of Directors

Proposal for the appropriation of the Company’s profit or loss (item 9 (b))

The Board proposes that no dividend be distributed for the financial year 2015.

Resolution concerning guidelines for the remuneration of senior executives
(item 14)

The Board proposes the Annual General Meeting to resolve on the guidelines
below for the determination of remuneration and other employment conditions for
the CEO and other Executives.

The compensation level and structure shall be at market level. The total
compensation shall be a balanced mix of fixed salaries, variable compensation,
retirement and health plans, any other benefits and terms for dismissal and
severance payments. The compensation may also comprise stock related long term
incentive programs. The variable compensation varies for each Executive and
shall primarily be related to Anoto Group’s budget and may not exceed fifty per
cent of the fixed salary; the variable compensation for the CEO, however, may
not exceed seventy five per cent of the fixed salary. The retirement plan shall
be competitive. The CEO shall have a premium based retirement plan based on
thirty-five per cent of the fixed salary. The other Executives shall have
premium based retirement plans corresponding to the (Swedish) ITP-plan. Other
benefits, like health plans and company cars, shall be competitive. As a main
rule all of the Executives shall have a mutual notice period of six months.
Under certain conditions some Executives may have an additional three month
notice period in case Anoto Group gives notice. The CEO shall have a mutual
notice period of up to six months and a severance payment corresponding to, at
the most, twelve months salary in case Anoto Group terminates the employment
without just cause. Stock related incentive plans are to be determined by the
General Meeting. Issues and transfers of securities determined by the General
Meeting according to the rules of Chapter 16 in the Swedish Companies Act are
not comprised by these guidelines in case the General Meeting has or will make
such decisions.

The Board shall be entitled to deviate from these guidelines in a certain case
should there be specific reasons.

Resolution to authorise the Board of Directors to issue new shares and/or
convertible bonds (item 15)

The Board of Directors proposes that the General Meeting authorizes the Board
of Directors to resolve, on one or several occasions during the period until
the next Annual General Meeting, with or without deviation from the
shareholders’ preferential rights, against cash payment, for payment in kind or
by way of set-off, to issue shares and/or convertible bonds that involve the
issue of or conversion into a maximum of 213,000,000 shares, corresponding to a
dilution of approximately 10.0 percent of the share capital and votes, based on
the current number of shares in the Company and the additional shares to be
issued in the ongoing rights issue assuming that the share issue is fully
subscribed.

The purpose of the authorisation and the reason for any disapplication of the
shareholders' preferential rights is make it possible for the Company to pay
with own financial instruments in connection with possible acquisitions that
the Company may carry out and to increase the flexibility of the Company to
finance the ongoing business. The basis for the issue price shall be according
to the prevailing market conditions at the time when shares and/or convertible
bonds are issued.

A valid resolution by the General Meeting pursuant to the proposal above
requires that the resolution be supported by shareholders representing at least
two-thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the General
Meeting.

Resolution to implement an incentive scheme for senior executives (item 16)

The shareholder Solid Technologies Limited proposes that the General Meeting
resolves to adopt an incentive scheme for senior executives employed in the
Group.

The incentive scheme means that the participants, free of charge, will be
allocated stock options. The options can be exercised to purchase shares in the
Company from the date of publication of the Company's quarterly report for the
second quarter of 2018, but no later than 1 October 2018, until 30 October
2018.

Provided that the participant is or has been employed - or director since such
employment is terminated - in the Group for at least 12 months from the date of
allocation of the stock options, each option entitle the employee to purchase
one share in Anoto Group AB at a price equal to 150 per cent of the average
closing price of the Company's shares on Nasdaq Stockholm during the period
from 7 June 2016 up to and including 17 June 2016.

The incentive scheme comprises a maximum of 65,250,000 stock options,
representing approximately 3.0 percent of the share capital and votes after
dilution, based on the current number of shares in the Company and the
additional shares to be issued in the ongoing rights issue assuming that the
share issue is fully subscribed. The maximum number of stock options to be
allocated to the CEO of the Company shall be 21,750,000 stock options, while
other senior executives will each be allocated a maximum of 12,000,000 stock
options.

The Board shall be responsible for preparing the detailed terms and conditions
of the incentive scheme, in accordance with the above mentioned terms and
guidelines. To this end, the Board shall be entitled to make adjustments in
incentive scheme to meet foreign regulations or market conditions. The Board
may also make other adjustments if significant changes in the group, or its
markets, result in a situation where the decided terms and conditions for
exercising the options become inappropriate.

Furthermore, in case of special circumstances, the Board shall be authorised to
resolve that options will be kept and exercised despite the fact that
employment in the Group have ceased, for example due to illness.

The rationale for the proposal is to create opportunities to keep and to
recruit competent personnel and to increase the motivation amongst the
employees. The Board considers that the adoption of the incentive scheme as
described above is in the favour of the Group and the shareholders in the
Company.

The incentive scheme allows employees of the Group to be granted stock options
entitling them to acquire shares in the Company. Such transfers fall within the
scope of Chapter 16 of the Swedish Companies Act, which means that a resolution
to approve the incentive scheme is valid only where supported by shareholders
holding not less than nine-tenth of both the shares voted and of the shares
represented at the General Meeting


Resolution to issue stock options to the Chairman of the Board (item 17)

The shareholder Solid Technologies Limited proposes that the General Meeting
resolves to approve the allocation of 21,750,000 additional stock options to
the Chairman of the Board, representing approximately 1.0 percent of the share
capital and votes after dilution, based on the current number of shares in the
Company and the additional shares to be issued in the ongoing rights issue
assuming that the share issue is fully subscribed.

The incentive scheme means that the Chairman of the Board, free of charge, will
be allocated stock options. The options can be exercised to purchase shares in
the Company from the date of publication of the Company's quarterly report for
the second quarter of 2018, but no later than 1 October 2018, until 30 October
2018.

Provided that the participant is or has been a board member of the Company, or
at least available for re-election as a board member, for at least 12 months
from the date of allocation of the stock options, each option entitle the
participant to purchase one share in Anoto Group AB at a price equal to 150 per
cent of the average closing price of the Company's shares on Nasdaq Stockholm
during the period from 7 June 2016 up to and including 17 June 2016.

The Board shall be responsible for preparing the detailed terms and conditions
of the incentive scheme, in accordance with the above mentioned terms and
guidelines. To this end, the Board shall be entitled to make adjustments in
incentive scheme to meet foreign regulations or market conditions. The Board
may also make other adjustments if significant changes in the group, or its
markets, result in a situation where the decided terms and conditions for
exercising the options become inappropriate.

Furthermore, in case of special circumstances, the Board shall be authorised to
resolve that options will be kept and exercised despite the fact that the
appointment as board member in the Company has ceased, for example due to
illness.

The rationale for the proposal is to create opportunities to keep and to
recruit competent personnel as board members and to increase the motivation
amongst the participants. The Board considers that the adoption of the
incentive scheme as described above is in the favour of the Group and the
shareholders in the Company.

The incentive scheme allows a board member of the Group to be granted stock
options entitling him to acquire shares in the Company. Such transfers fall
within the scope of Chapter 16 of the Swedish Companies Act, which means that a
resolution to approve the incentive scheme is valid only where supported by
shareholders holding not less than nine-tenth of both the shares voted and of
the shares represented at the General Meeting

Resolution to authorise the Board of Directors to issue warrants (item 18)

To ensure delivery of shares to participants in the incentive scheme described
above, and to cover any social security costs related to the incentive scheme,
it is proposed that the Board of Directors be authorised, on one or more
occasions until the next Annual General Meeting, to issue up to 87,000,000
warrants, representing approximately 4.00 per cent of the share capital and
votes after dilution. The warrants shall be issued free of charge and, with
disapplication of the shareholders' preferential rights, may be subscribed for
by Anoto AB, a subsidiary of the Company.

A valid resolution by the General Meeting pursuant to the proposal above
requires that the resolution be supported by shareholders representing at least
two-thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the General
Meeting.

Other

The Board of Directors’ complete proposals for resolutions in accordance with
the above, including reports and statements related thereto in accordance with
the Swedish Companies Act (SFS 2005:551), will be available at the Company’s
office in Lund and on the Company’s web page, www.anoto.com, no later than
three weeks prior to the General Meeting and will also be sent to those
shareholders who so request and provide their postal address.

According to Chapter 7, section 32 of the Swedish Companies Act, at a General
Meeting the shareholders are entitled to require information from the Board of
Directors and CEO regarding circumstances which may affect items on the agenda
and circumstances which may affect the Company’s financial situation.

Number of shares and votes in the Company
