Approval of the acquisition of Gatso Beheer B.V. (item7 a)
The board of directors proposes that the meeting approve the acquisition of all shares in Gatso Beheer B.V.
The company has entered into an agreement to acquire the Dutch company Gatso Beheer B.V. for a total consideration of approximately MSEK 278. Payment for the acquisition will be made through (i) a cash payment of SEK 75,000,000, (ii) an issue in kind of a number of new shares to the seller corresponding to a value of SEK 140,000,000 (the number of shares to which the seller is entitled to subscribe shall be calculated on the basis of the average price for Sensys Traffic’s shares during a period of 90 days before and including 23 June 2015 and 28 days after 23 June 2015) and (iii) the issuance of a vendor note of approximately SEK 63,080,000 (which under certain circumstances may be converted into new shares in Sensys Traffic). In addition the seller may, under certain circumstances, be entitled to an additional purchase price of maximum EUR 4,000,000, to be payable no earlier than during 2016.

The acquisition of Gatso Beheer B.V. and the merger of the operations of Sensys Traffic and Gatso Beheer B.V. will create the largest supplier of traffic enforcement equipment with a strong and unique value proposition in the managed services market. The combined company will have strong presence in Europe, the Middle East, Asia and Australia, and will also have a foothold in the North American managed services market. The combined company is proposed to operate under the name Sensys Gatso Group AB.

The Sensys Gatso Group proforma numbers for 2014 looks as follows: Net revenues of MSEK 436, EBITDA of MSEK 65.4, installed base of 18,000 systems and 202 employees.
The transaction is combining the customer base and the capabilities of the two companies, which will reduce the volatility of the project oriented equipment markets while providing better growth opportunities in the managed services markets.

The acquisition is conditional upon the meeting’s approval of the resolutions under this item 7. If the necessary resolutions are taken, Sensys Traffic believes that the acquisition can be finalized around early August 2015.

Amendment of the articles of association (item 7 b)
The board of directors proposes that §§ 4 and 5 of the articles of association’s are amended so that the share capital shall amount to not less than SEK 15,000,000 and not more than SEK 60,000,000 and, that the number of shares in the company shall amount to not less than 300,000,000 and not more than 1,200,000,000.

Authorisation for the board of directors to resolve on issuance of shares and convertibles in connection with the acquisition of Gatso Beheer B.V. (item 7 c)
The board of directors proposes that the meeting authorises the board of directors, in connection with the proposed acquisition of Gatso Beheer B.V. and with deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights, to resolve on new issues of shares and convertibles under the above item 7 b) proposed articles of association. The authorisation shall include the right to resolve on new issues where the shares and convertibles are to be paid for with non-cash consideration, through set-off or otherwise with conditions pursuant to the Swedish Companies Act.

The reason for the proposal and the deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights is the proposed acquisition of all shares in Gatso Beheer B.V. The basis for the subscription price shall be the market value of the share.

Authorisation for the board of directors to resolve on issuance of shares (item 7 d)
The board of directors proposes that the meeting authorises the board of directors, until the next annual general meeting, on one or more occasions, with or without deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights, to resolve on new issues of shares corresponding to not more than ten (10) per cent of the total number of outstanding shares in the company after the proposed acquisition of all shares in Gatso Beheer B.V. has been carried out, or if the acquisition is not carried out, not more than ten (10 per cent of the total number of outstanding shares in the company per the day of publication of this notice. The authorisation shall also include the right to resolve on new issues where the shares are to be paid for with non-cash consideration, through set-off or otherwise with conditions pursuant to the Swedish Companies Act.

The reason for the proposal and the deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights is to permit flexibility in connection with possible further acquisitions and capital raisings. The basis for the subscription price shall be the market value of the share.

Majority requirement
The resolution of the meeting in accordance with items a), b) and c) above, shall be adopted as one resolution. A valid resolution in accordance with items a), b) and c), as well as item d) above must be supported by shareholders representing at least two thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the meeting.

Amendment to the articles of association (item 8)
The board of directors proposes that § 1 of the articles of association is amended so that the company name shall be Sensys Gatso Group AB. This amendment shall be conditional upon the acquisition of all shares in Gatso Beheer B.V being carried out.

A valid resolution must be supported by shareholders representing at least two thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the meeting.

Resolution (a) to increase the board of directors with one director, (b) to elect one additional director and (c) regarding board remuneration (item 9)
With reference to the proposed acquisition of all shares in Gatso Beheer B.V., it is proposed that the board of directors is increased with one additional director. The proposal under this item will be conditional upon the acquisition being carried out. The complete proposal will be published separately well in time prior to the meeting.

Resolution to authorise the board of directors to resolve upon acquisition and transfer of own shares (item 10)
The board of directors proposes that the meeting authorises the board of directors, until the next annual general meeting, on one or more occasions to resolve upon the acquisition of a maximum number of own shares so that, after the purchase, the company holds not more than five (5) per cent of the total number of shares in the company. Such shares shall be purchased on Nasdaq Stockholm at a price that is within the registered price interval (spread) at any given time, meaning the interval between the highest bid price and the lowest ask price, and in other respects in accordance with the rules of Nasdaq Stockholm at any given time. The purpose of the repurchase of own shares is to align the company’s capital structure to the company’s capital requirements and, where appropriate, to enable share transfers in conjunction with the financing of company acquisitions and other types of strategic investments and acquisitions.

The board of directors further proposes that the meeting authorises the board of directors, until the next annual general meeting, on one or more occasions to resolve upon the transfer of own shares. The shares may only be transferred as part of the purchase price in conjunction a company acquisition or a merger, and the transfers may not exceed the maximum number of own shares held by the company at any given time. Payment for shares transferred in this manner may be made through a non-cash issue or offsetting of claims against the company, or on other specific terms. The reason for the board of directors’ authorisation to waive the shareholders’ preferential rights is, where appropriate, to be able to transfer shares in conjunction with carrying out any company acquisitions and other types of strategic investments and acquisitions in a cost-efficient manner.

A valid resolution must be supported by shareholders representing at least two thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the meeting.
