The total number of shares that may be issued by virtue of the authorisation may not exceed ten per cent of the total number of shares in Volvo Cars at the time of the Board of Directors’ resolution. The purpose of the authorisation, and the reason for any deviation from the shareholders’ preferential right, is to increase the financial flexibility of the company to enable the company to finance the operations in a fast and efficient way, acquire companies, businesses or parts thereof and/or to enable a broadening of the ownership of the company.
