3.6.Any exercise of Options shall be conditional on:

4.RESTRICTIONS ON SHARES

4.1.The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Net Number of Shares acquired by the Executive on any exercise of Options shall be subject to the transfer restrictions set out in Schedule 1 to this Agreement and the Executive shall enter into any other agreement or arrangement that the Committee considers necessary or desirable to enforce such restrictions.

5.LEAVING EMPLOYMENT

5.1.For the avoidance of doubt, the Options shall continue in accordance with the terms of the Agreement if the Executive ceases to be an employee or director of the Klarna Group for any reason but if the Executive dies then the Agreement shall be binding upon the Executive’s estate as well as for any beneficiaries and/or legatees as if such person(s) were the original Executive.

5.2.If the Executive exercises Options after he has ceased to provide services to the Company or any of its subsidiaries as a director, officer, employee or consultant then he may only exercise those Options in respect of Ordinary Shares.

6.CHANGE OF CONTROL

7.EXCHANGE

7.1.If a company (the “Acquiring Company”) is expected to obtain Control of the Company and either:

(a)substantially all the shares in the Acquiring Company are expected to be held by the same persons who immediately before the obtaining of Control of the Company were shareholders in the Company; or

(b)the Committee determines that Options should be automatically exchanged

then the Committee, with the consent of the Acquiring Company, may decide before the obtaining of such Control that Options will not lapse under clause 6.1 but will be automatically exchanged under this clause 7.

(iii)a special dividend or distribution; or

(iv)any other transaction which, in the opinion of the Committee, would materially affect the value of the Shares,

the Committee may determine:

(b)a demerger (in whatever form);

(c)a special dividend or distribution; or

(d)any other transaction which will, in the opinion of the Committee, materially affect the value of Shares,

the Committee may adjust in such manner as it considers appropriate:

(i)the number or class of Shares or securities subject to an Option;

(ii)the number of Options subject to the Agreement; and/or

(iii)the Exercise Price.

9.2.On any adjustment pursuant to clause 9.1, the Exercise Price shall not be reduced below the nominal value of a Share (or relevant proportion thereof where a Share is less than a whole share) unless the Board is authorised to resolve and does resolve to capitalise from reserves an amount equal to the amount by which the total nominal value (or part thereof) of the relevant Share exceeds the total adjusted Exercise Price, and to apply such amount to pay up the relevant Share (or part thereof) in full.

10.LAPSE OF THE OPTIONS

10.1.If an Option lapses in accordance with the terms of the Agreement it cannot subsequently be exercised and the Executive has no rights in respect of it.

10.2.An Option will lapse to the extent that it has not been exercised on the day after the Final Exercise Date unless it lapses earlier in accordance with the Agreement.

10.3.If an Option is due to lapse under more than one provision of the Agreement, the Option will lapse on the earliest date of lapse.

11.NO TRANSFER

11.1.The Executive may not transfer, assign, pledge, encumber or otherwise dispose of any Option or any rights in respect of it. If the Executive attempts to do so then the Option will immediately lapse. This clause does not apply to the transfer or transmission of an Option on the death of a Participant to his estate in accordance with applicable laws of descent.

12.TAX LIABILITY

12.1.The Executive shall be responsible for and indemnifies the Company (for and on behalf of itself and any other member of the Klarna Group) for any tax liability relating to the Options (including any such liability arising in respect of the acquisition, holding and disposal of Shares acquired pursuant to the Options).

12.2.To the extent permitted under applicable law, where a Tax Liability arises (or would arise) for any member of the Klarna Group in respect of any exercise of the Options, the Options may not be exercised unless the Executive has either:

(a)made a payment to that company of an amount equal to that company’s estimate of the amount of the Tax Liability; or

(b)entered into arrangements acceptable to that company to secure that such payment is made.

12.3.For the purposes of this clause 12, “Tax Liability” shall mean any amount of tax and/or employees’ social security (or similar) contributions (or any reasonable estimate thereof) which any member of the Klarna Group becomes liable to pay on the Executive’s behalf to the revenue authorities in any jurisdiction. No member of the Klarna Group makes any guarantees with respect to the Executive’s Tax Liability and shall not have any obligation to indemnify the Executive or otherwise hold the Executive harmless from any additional taxes or penalties.

13.EMPLOYMENT

13.1.The rights and obligations of the Executive under the terms of their office or employment with any past or present member of the Klarna Group shall not be affected by the Agreement and the Agreement shall not form part of any contract of employment between the Executive and any such company. For avoidance of doubt, the granting of the Options to the Executive shall not form the basis for any pension benefits or severance payments, nor create any obligation of continued employment of the Executive.

13.2.By entering into the Agreement, the Executive waives all and any rights to compensation or damages in consequence of the termination of their office or employment with any past or present member of the Klarna Group for any reason whatsoever, whether lawfully or otherwise, insofar as those rights arise or may arise from them ceasing to have rights under the Agreement as a result of such termination, or from the loss or diminution in value of such rights or entitlements, including by reason of the operation of the terms of the Agreement or the provisions of any statute or law relating to taxation.

13.3.The Executive acknowledges that the Klarna Group will hold and process personal data concerning the Executive as described in the Schedule 2 to the Agreement.

14.MISCELLANEOUS

14.1.The Executive undertakes to procure that they will not at any time be subject to a joint property regime requiring the consent of the Executive’s spouse in order for the Executive to be able to fulfil their obligations under the Agreement or in order for the Company to be able to enforce its rights against the Executive under the Agreement. The Executive further undertakes that an Option and any rights related thereto will at all times constitute the Executive’s sole property and will consequently be allotted to the Executive in case of a division of marital property or any similar division of property (whether by operation of law or otherwise). The Executive shall at the Company’s request provide evidence (to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company) that its obligations pursuant to this clause 14.1 have been and will be complied with.

14.2.The Parties agree, and undertake to procure, that the Agreement is not to be regarded as an unincorporated non-trading partnership (Sw. enkelt bolag) under Swedish law and that the Swedish Act on partnerships and non-registered partnerships (Sw. Lag (1980:1102) om handelsbolag och enkla bolag) is therefore not applicable to the Agreement. Should the Agreement nevertheless be regarded as such a partnership, the Executive to which any liquidation grounds under applicable law relate shall, at the Company’s request, be obligated to resign from such partnership (instead of liquidating the partnership).

15.CONFIDENTIALITY

15.1.The Executive shall treat the Agreement as confidential and shall not at any time disclose to any person information relating to the existence or the terms of the Agreement except to the extent:

(a)required by any applicable legal or regulatory requirement; or

15.2.The restrictions contained in clause 15.1 shall continue to apply without limit in time after any and all Options cease to exist.

16.NOTICES

17.ENTIRE AGREEMENT

17.2.Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that it has not entered into the Agreement in reliance on any statement or representation of any person (whether a party to the Agreement or not) other than as expressly incorporated in the Agreement and the documents referred to in the Agreement.

17.3.Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right or remedy it may have to claim damages and/or to rescind the Agreement by reason of any misrepresentation (other than a fraudulent misrepresentation) having been made to it by any person (whether party to the Agreement or not) and upon which it has relied in entering into the Agreement.

18.COUNTERPARTS

18.1.The Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, and all the counterparts shall together constitute one and the same agreement.

18.2.The exchange of the Agreement (in counterparts or otherwise) by electronic means using DocuSign or otherwise shall be sufficient to bind the Parties to the terms and conditions of the Agreement.

19.SEVERANCE

19.1.If any provision of the Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable by any judicial or other competent authority, all other provisions of the Agreement will remain in full force and effect and will not in any way be impaired.

19.2.If any provision of the Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable but would be valid or enforceable if some part of the provision were deleted, the provision in question will apply with the minimum modifications necessary to make it valid and enforceable.

20.VARIATION AND WAIVER

No variation or abrogation of the terms of the Agreement shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by or on behalf of the Parties.

21.THIRD PARTY RIGHTS

The Agreement does not confer any rights on any person or party (other than the Parties) pursuant to the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999.

22.GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION

22.1.The Agreement (and any dispute or claim relating to it or its subject matter (including non-contractual claims)) is governed by and is to be construed in accordance with English law.

22.2.Any dispute, claim or issue arising out of or in connection with the Agreement, including any question regarding its existence, validity or termination, shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration administered by the International Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (the “ICC Court”) in accordance with the ICC Rules of Arbitration in force from time to time. The seat, or legal place, of arbitration shall be London, United Kingdom. The language to be used in the arbitral proceedings shall be English.

In the event any arbitrator is not timely nominated as provided herein, then such arbitrator shall be appointed by the ICC Court.

All hearings shall be private and confidential.

The Agreement has been executed as a deed and is delivered and takes effect on the date stated at the beginning of it.

For the purpose of this schedule, the number of Option Shares as of [l] shall be treated as divided into 12 portions (each part a “Tranche”) and upon any exercise of the Options the Net Number of Shares comprised in each Tranche may only be transferred, assigned, pledged, encumbered or otherwise disposed of by the Executive without the prior written consent of the Company after the expiry of the periods (the “Holding Periods”) set out in the table below.

For the avoidance of doubt, if an Option is exercised after the expiry of a Holding Period then the Shares contained in the corresponding Tranche shall not be subject to a Holding Period.

The restrictions contained in this Schedule shall not apply to any transfer by the Executive of the Net Number of Shares to a depositary receipt system or its nominee as contemplated by and in accordance with the Articles in connection with an initial public offering of shares in the capital of the Company and such restrictions shall instead apply to any shares, securities or receipts that replace, represent or are issued in place of any such Shares so transferred to the depositary receipt system or its nominee.

“Initial Option Shares” and “IOS” in the table above means the number of Option Shares as of [l] as may be adjusted to reflect any variation in the equity share capital of the Company.

SCHEDULE 2

DATA PROTECTION INFORMATION

In order to implement, manage and administer the Options and the rights and obligations under the Agreement, the Company (the “Controller”) will collect and process the Executive’s (hereinafter referred to as the “Data Subject”) personal data (e.g. name, home address, identification number such as date of birth, social security number or identification number, nationality, title and position, employment status, number of Shares under the Options, the number of Option Shares exercised and details of Share ownership) (the “Personal Data”).

The Controller processes the Personal Data for the purposes of (i) implementing, managing and administering the Options and the rights and obligations under the Agreement, (ii) defending itself against potential claims and (iii) complying with applicable laws and regulations (for the Company, specifically to comply with legal obligations to keep an updated share register and legal obligations on bookkeeping). The processing of Personal Data for purpose (i) is based on the Agreement, as the processing is necessary for the performance thereof. The processing of Personal Data for purpose (ii) is based on legitimate interests of the Controller to defend itself against potential claims. The Controller considers that its interests outweigh the interest of the Data Subject in not having their Personal Data processed for this purpose. The Data Subject may contact the Controller if they wish to receive more information about the balance of interests.
