"Article 4octies — Contingent Share Capital

The share capital may be increased in an amount not to exceed CHF 1,060,236.00 through the issuance of up to 785,360 fully paid registered shares with a par value of CHF 1.35 per share by the issuance of new shares to employees of the Company and group companies. The pre-emptive rights and advance subscriptions rights of the shareholders of the Company shall thereby be excluded. The shares or rights to subscribe for shares shall be issued to employees pursuant to the Long Term Incentive Plan 2016 approved by the Board of Directors. Shares or subscription rights may be issued to employees at a 10% discount compared with the market price quoted on the stock exchange of that time."

Explanatory notes:

The proposed additional new contingent share capital is intended to help Cavotec SA retaining key managers in connection with Cavotec SA's Long Term Incentive Plan 2016 (LTIP 2016). The Chairman of the Remuneration Committee will present the LTIP 2016 in detail at the OGM. Information regarding the LTIP is available on www.cavotec.com.

6. Creation of authorized share capital

The OGM approved the Board of Directors' proposal to create authorized share capital in an amount not to exceed CHF 21,204,720, enabling the issuance of up to 15,707,200 Cavotec SA shares by not later than April 22, 2018, by amending article 4quater, para. 1 of the Articles of Association with the following wording:

"The Board of Directors shall be authorized to increase the share capital in an amount not to exceed CHF 21,204,720 through the issuance of up to 15,707,200 fully paid registered shares with a par value of CHF 1.35 per share by not later than April 22, 2018. Increases in partial amounts shall be permitted."

Explanatory notes:

The current provision regarding authorized share capital, article 4ter of the Articles of Association, has been approved by the AGM 2012 and renewed by the OGM 2014 and allowed for the creation of authorized capital for up to 14,279,444 shares, corresponding to 20% of all issued shares. Since then, the authorized share capital has been used for the issuing of 7,138,780 new shares that were subscribed by Bure Equity AB, as per Cavotec's press release of September 12, 2014. The authorized share capital is intended to enhance Cavotec SA's financial flexibility, in view of future acquisitions, while also enhancing the liquidity of the Cavotec share. Since the deadline of the authorized share capital approved in 2012 and renewed in 2014 will expire shortly, the purpose of this amendment is, on one hand, to extend said deadline for another two years. Furthermore, the Board of Directors proposes to rebuild and adapt the maximum number of shares to be issued under this article taking into account the currently issued shares. The proposed 15,707,200 correspond to 20% of all currently issued shares of Cavotec SA.
