Decision on approval of merger plan regarding the merger of Collector AB and Collector Bank AB

The Annual General Meeting resolved to approve the merger plan for the implementation of the proposed merger of Collector AB and Collector Bank AB. The merger entails Collector Bank AB absorbing Collector AB. The merger is being conducted with the aim of simplifying the Group structure, streamlining the utilization of internal resources and optimizing the capital position. All operations in the Collector Group remain unchanged after the merger as all operating activities are currently conducted in Collector Bank AB, including its branches. The merger is expected to be completed during the third quarter of 2022, when the shares in Collector Bank AB are intended to be admitted for trading on Nasdaq Stockholm. Implementation of the merger presupposes that (a) the holders of outstanding bonds in Collector Bank AB approve certain necessary changes in the bond terms, (b) the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority issues the necessary permits and (c) Nasdaq Stockholm approves that the shares in Collector Bank be admitted to trading.
