Proposed resolutions by the Board of Directors

2 Election of chairperson of the meeting

The Board of Directors proposes that Eric Ehrencrona or, in the event of an impediment, the person appointed by the Board of Directors instead be elected as the chair of the Extraordinary General Meeting.

7 Resolution regarding approval of the Board of Directors’ resolution on new issue of units with preferential rights for existing shareholders

The Board of Directors proposes that the Extraordinary General Meeting resolves to approve the Board of Directors’ resolution of 26 February 2024 on a new issue of no more than 40,183,173 new shares, leading to an increase of share capital of no more than SEK 2,009,158.65, and an issue of no more than 13,394,391 warrants of series TO4, entitling to subscribe for a total of 13,394,391 shares in the Company, leading to an increase of the share capital of no more than SEK 669,719.55.

The issues are treated as one resolution and are carried out by issuing so-called units with preferential rights for existing shareholders (the “Rights Issue”) and on the following conditions.

The right to subscribe for shares in the Rights Issue shall, with preferential rights, rest with those who are registered as shareholders of the Company on the record date of the issue. Each shareholder shall have a preferential right to subscribe for shares in proportion to the number of shares previously held by the shareholder.

Twelve (12) unit rights entitle the holder to subscribe for one (1) unit. One (1) unit consists of three (3) new shares and one (1) warrant of series TO4.

Subscription can only be made for units and thus not for shares or warrants separately. Allocation may only be made in units. However, after the completion of the Rights Issue, the shares and the warrants will be separated.

The record date for determining which shareholders are entitled to subscribe for units with preferential rights shall be 15 March 2024.

The subscription price per unit shall be SEK 9.00, corresponding to a subscription price of SEK 3.00 per share. The part of the subscription price that exceeds the quotient value shall be added to the non-restricted share premium reserve. Any part of the subscription price that exceeds the quotient value upon subscription of shares with the support of the warrants shall be transferred to the free premium reserve. Warrants of series TO4 are issued free of charge.

Subscription of units shall take place during the period from and including 19 March 2024 up to and including 2 April 2024. Subscription of units with preferential rights (i.e. with unit rights) shall be made through payment. Subscription of units without preferential rights (i.e. without unit rights) shall be made on designated application form during the period set out above. The Board of Directors shall be entitled to resolve on an extension of the subscription period.

Payment for units subscribed for without exercise of unit rights shall be made no later than three banking days from notice of allotment (settlement note) has been sent to the subscriber. However, the Board of Directors shall have the right to resolve on an extension of the payment period.

Payment for subscribed units shall be made in cash. However, it is noted that the Board of directors can allow set-off in accordance with the conditions specified in Chapter 13, Section 41 of the Swedish Companies Act.

If not all of the units are subscribed for with exercised unit rights, the Board of Directors shall, up to the maximum amount of the Rights Issue, resolve on allotment of units subscribed for without exercised unit rights. In such case, units shall:firstly, be allotted to those who have also subscribed for units with support of unit rights, regardless of whether the subscriber was a shareholder on the record date or not, and, in the event that allotment to these cannot be made in entirety, allotment shall be made pro-rata in relation to the number of unit rights used for subscription of units and, insofar as this cannot be done, by drawing of lots;secondly, be allotted to others who have applied for subscription of units without support of unit rights, and, in the event that allotment to these cannot be made in entirety, allotment shall be made pro-rata in relation to the number of units that such persons have applied for subscription for and, insofar as this cannot be done, by drawing of lots; andlastly, be allotted to those who have provided issue guarantees for subscription of units, pro rata in relation to their guarantees and, insofar as this cannot be done, by drawing of lots.Each warrant of series TO4 shall entitle the holder to subscribe for one (1) new share in the Company at a subscription price corresponding to 70 per cent of the volume-weighted average price paid for the Company’s share on Nasdaq First North Growth Market during the period from and including 3 March 2025 up to and including 14 March 2025, however, not less than the shares quotient value and not more than SEK 4.50 per share.

Each warrant of series TO4 shall entitle the holder to subscribe for one (1) new share in the Company during the period from and including 18 March 2025 up to and including 1 April 2025, or as may otherwise follow from the terms and conditions in special cases, see section 12 below.

Complete terms and conditions for warrants of series TO4 are stated in the special terms and conditions that will be made available before the meeting in accordance with the heading “Other” below.

The new shares shall entitle to dividends for the first time on the record date for dividends that occurs immediately after the new shares have been registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office and the shares have been entered in the share register at Euroclear Sweden AB. The shares issued as a result of subscription by support of the warrants shall carry the right to dividends for the first time on the record date for dividends that occurs immediately after the new shares have been registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office and the shares have been entered in the share register of Euroclear Sweden AB

The Board of Directors or anyone appointed by the Board of Directors is given the right to make the adjustments necessary in connection with the registration of the resolution at the Companies Registration Office or Euroclear Sweden AB.

The Rights Issue is valid only if the proposal is supported by shareholders representing more than half of the votes cast.

8 Resolution regarding adjustment authorization

The Board of Directors, the CEO or the person appointed by the Board of Directors shall be authorized to make such minor amendments and clarifications of the resolution by the Extraordinary General Meeting that may prove necessary in connection with registration of the resolutions.

OASE+ and Elsevier Agree Next-Phase Read and Publish Agreement to Expand Open Access Publishing in Japan

Published

on

By

A new three-year term removes the annual cap on open access publishing under the Read and Publish agreement and extends eligibility beyond universities

TOKYO, Oct. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — OASE+ (Open Access for Scholarly Empowerment +), the collective negotiating body established with Japanese government support to advance the country’s national open access policy, and Elsevier, a global leader in advanced information and decision support, have agreed a read-and-publish agreement covering 2027 to 2029.

The agreement further develops the framework established by Elsevier in partnership with the Japan Alliance of University Library Consortia for E-Resources (JUSTICE) for 2024 to 2026. Under this framework Japanese research institutions are able to expand open access publishing at a pace suited to their individual circumstances while maintaining access to scholarly journals.

From 2027, researchers at participating institutions will be able to publish open access in eligible Core Hybrid journals, subject to the terms of the agreement and without an annual cap on the number of open access articles. The decision to publish open access will rest with the researcher and the research itself, giving researchers greater flexibility in choosing open access publishing and greater certainty in meeting their funders’ and institutions’ open access requirements.             

A separate agreement applies the same approach to Cell Press. For institutions that subscribe to Cell Press Hybrid titles, reading access and open access publishing will cover the subscribed titles. The agreement will also have no annual cap on the number of open access articles and run from 2027 to 2029.

The agreement also extends eligibility for the first time beyond universities to national research and development agencies, opening participation to a substantial part of Japan’s publicly funded research base.

Japan is one of the world’s largest producers of scientific research. Wider open access publishing increases the international visibility of that research, supports collaboration across borders, and helps ensure Japanese findings inform science, practice and policy well beyond Japan. It also advances the objectives of the Japanese government’s National Policy on Promoting Open Access to Publicly Funded Scholarly Publications and Scientific Data.

The agreement follows extended discussions between OASE+ and Elsevier and reflects the findings of a survey of the needs of institutes that expressed interest in the Read and Publish agreement, as well as experience gained through the current framework.

Professor Yasuteru Shigeta of the University of Tsukuba, Chair of OASE+, said: “In 2024, OASE was established under the Japanese government’s ‘National Policy on Promoting Open Access to Publicly Funded Scholarly Publications and Scientific Data’. Through collaboration with JUSTICE, OASE has since strengthened its framework as OASE+. This enhanced structure enabled constructive negotiations with Elsevier, building upon the achievements and experience gained through the pilot proposal implemented for JUSTICE through 2026. As a result, we are pleased that researchers will be able to publish open access in Core Hybrid journals without any cap on the number of articles, and that Cell Press Hybrid journals are now also available under a Read and Publish agreement. While there should be multiple valid approaches to advancing open access, we hope that this agreement will serve as one of those pathways and help enhance the visibility of research from Japan to create positive impact.”

Gemma Hersh, Senior Vice President, Sales and Commercial Director, Primary Research, Elsevier, said: “We are delighted that this new agreement with OASE+ will enable us to further develop our long-standing partnership with the Japanese research community. We are grateful to OASE+ and the institutions that expressed interest in the agreement for the collaboration and pragmatism they brought to our discussions, and for helping to establish a framework with broader reach across Japan’s research base. Japan’s research is of global importance, and this agreement will help ensure more of it is openly available to researchers around the world.”

Further information is available from OASE+ and on Elsevier’s open access agreements page.

Notes to editors

A Read and Publish agreement combines, in a single contract, the subscription fees research institutions paid publishers for access to scholarly articles with the fees for publishing articles open access (article publishing charges, or APCs).

Core Hybrid journals are subscription-based journals that also give authors the option to publish individual articles open access. Under the 2027 to 2029 agreement, open access publishing in eligible Core Hybrid journals is available without an annual open access publishing limit.

Cell Press Hybrid journals are subscription-based Cell Press journals that also give authors the option to publish individual articles open access. A companion agreement covering 2027 to 2029 applies to Cell Press Hybrid journals, under which reading access and open access publishing are aligned to the Cell Press Hybrid journals an institution subscribes to, without an annual open access publishing limit.

Institutions that have expressed interest will not necessarily enter into the agreement immediately. Each institution reviews the terms and decides independently whether to participate, and contract commencement dates will vary. Institutions wishing to participate must submit an expression of interest through OASE+. As of October 21, 167 institutions have expressed interest in the agreement with Elsevier.

About OASE+

OASE+ (Open Access for Scholarly Empowerment +) is a team supported by the Japanese government working to establish a collective bargaining framework, led by universities and other research institutions, for negotiations with academic publishers. Through discussions with global academic publishers, OASE+ aims to contribute to the realization of the Japanese government’s National Policy on Promoting Open Access to Publicly Funded Scholarly Publications and Scientific Data.

OASE+ succeeds the activities of OASE, which was established in 2024, and operates as a joint initiative involving the Japan Alliance of University Library Consortia for E-Resources (JUSTICE) and OASE to promote open access to scholarly publications. For more information, visit the OASE+ website.

You can often identify forward-looking statements by words such as “may,” “might,” “will,” “shall,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “could,” “intends,” “targets,” “projects,” “contemplates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” “goal,” “objective,” “seeks,” “likely,” or “continue,” or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions; the absence of these words does not mean a statement is not forward-looking. These statements reflect our current expectations and projections about future events as of the date of this Communication and are necessarily based on estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by management, are inherently uncertain. FFR can give no assurance that such forward-looking statements or financial projections will prove to be correct.

Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements as a result of numerous risks and uncertainties, both general and specific, including, but not limited to: 

The proposed acquisition transaction and PIPE. The definitive agreements may be terminated in accordance with their terms, and the proposed transactions may not be completed on the terms described or at all; the conditions to closing, including the completion of FFAI’s internal restructuring of the robotics business, the execution of key employee agreements and other customary conditions, and the parties’ ability to satisfy them; the risk that the stockholder approval required under Nasdaq listing rules for the conversion of the preferred stock issued as consideration is not obtained or is delayed, and the effect of the conversion restrictions and the information statement process on the timing of conversion; the timing of the transaction and the costs of pursuing it; the issuance of a substantial number of shares as consideration and the resulting dilution to existing stockholders; the fact that the counterparty is our controlling stockholder, that it will hold a substantial majority of our outstanding shares following closing, that certain members of management serve both companies, and the conflicts of interest inherent in the transaction; the risk that the agreed valuations do not reflect the market value of our shares or of the acquired business; our dependence on the counterparty for transition, supply and support following any closing; the scope and enforceability of the non-competition and governance arrangements; the consequences of the transaction under Nasdaq listing rules, including the possibility that Nasdaq determines that the transaction requires us to satisfy initial listing requirements in connection with a business combination, change of control or change in the nature of our business; the risk that the PIPE financing, on which the transaction is not conditioned, is not completed on the anticipated terms or at all; the risk of litigation relating to the transaction; our ability to integrate and operate the acquired business; and the risk that the acquired business performs differently than anticipated. 

Projections. The projections referenced in this communication were prepared by FFAI management for the FF EAI Robotics business on a standalone basis and do not reflect our existing business, transaction-related expenses or the combined company. We have not independently verified them or adopted them as guidance. They were not prepared with a view toward public disclosure or toward compliance with the published guidelines of the Securities and Exchange Commission or the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants regarding prospective financial information, and no independent registered public accounting firm has examined, compiled or performed any procedures with respect to them, and none expresses an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect to them. The projections reflect estimates and assumptions that are inherently uncertain and subject to change, including through due diligence and the review of our special committee and its financial advisor. Actual results are likely to differ, and may differ materially. 

Liquidity, capital and going concern. Our limited cash and liquidity position and our history of operating losses and negative operating cash flow; substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern, as described in our periodic reports; our need to obtain additional financing on acceptable terms or at all, and the substantial dilution to existing stockholders that additional financing may cause, including any financing completed in connection with the proposed transaction, which may not be completed or may be on less favorable terms than anticipated; our ability to fund operations pending and following the disposition of our digital asset positions; and our ability to satisfy the continued listing requirements of The Nasdaq Stock Market, including stockholders’ equity, minimum bid price and other applicable standards. 

Our strategic transition and the disposition of digital assets. Risks associated with a fundamental shift in our business strategy and the redeployment of resources from a digital asset treasury strategy to robotics operations; our ability to execute the disposition of our digital asset positions in an orderly manner and on acceptable terms; the risk that amounts realized on disposition are materially less than carrying value as a result of price volatility, market depth, execution timing, custody or transfer constraints, or other limitations; tax, accounting and regulatory consequences of the dispositions; the continued volatility and regulatory uncertainty associated with digital assets and cryptocurrencies during the wind-down period; the concentration of a substantial portion of our assets in a single equity investment, including an investment in a related party, and the illiquidity, valuation uncertainty, holding-period and transfer restrictions associated with that investment; and risks arising from our relationships and agreements with related parties and significant stockholders.  

Our robotics operations business. Our limited operating history in robotics operations and commercialization and the absence of a meaningful revenue history; the early stage of RoboShare and the risk that customer demand, repeat demand, pricing, utilization or unit economics do not develop as anticipated; our dependence on a small number of customers, on a single initial geographic market, and on individual events or engagements, and the risk that the loss of, or a change in the terms of, any such relationship has a disproportionate effect; our dependence on third-party robot owners, operators, suppliers, original equipment manufacturers and local partners, and on their willingness to make robots available on our platform; risks relating to the availability, cost, quality, maintenance, transport, insurance and technological obsolescence of robots and related equipment, and to supply chains, tariffs and trade measures affecting them; and our ability to expand into additional markets and to attract and retain participants on both sides of our marketplace. 

Operations, safety and liability. Risks of property damage, personal injury or death arising from the operation of humanoid robots, quadrupeds and other autonomous or semi-autonomous machines in proximity to performers, employees, guests and the public, including at live events and in uncontrolled environments; product liability, premises liability, negligence and related claims and the adequacy, scope, availability and cost of our insurance coverage and of contractual indemnities from customers, owners and suppliers; the allocation of responsibility among us, robot owners, venues, event producers and customers; permitting, licensing, occupational safety and event-specific regulatory requirements; and the reputational consequences of any safety incident. 

Technology, data and intellectual property.
