Decision regarding guidelines for determining salaries and other remuneration to
the President and other members of company management 
The Meeting approved the Board's proposal of guidelines for determining salaries
and other remuneration to the President and other persons in Company management.
	Remuneration to the President and other persons in Axis AB's management (that
is, the five persons who jointly with the President comprise Group Management)
comprises basic salary, variable salary and pension. Other benefits and other
remuneration are received on the same basis as for other employees.
	The objective of Axis AB's remuneration policy for the senior executives is to
offer compensation that promotes retaining and recruiting qualified expertise to
Axis AB.
	The basic salary is determined on the basis that it should be competitive. The
absolute level depends on the specific position and the individual's
performance.
	Bonus to the President and the senior executives is based on financial goals
for the Group and is calculated as a function of the sales growth and operating
margin. The bonus to the President is maximized at SEK 5,000,000 (for 2007) and
for other senior executives the highest individual bonus amount is a maximum of
SEK 1,250,000 (for 2007).
	The pension age for the President is 65. Pension premiums shall amount to 35
percent of pension-based salary up to 28.8 base amounts. A premium of 25 percent
is paid for salary exceeding 28.5 base amounts. The ITP agreement is applied for
other senior executives, with a pension age of 65.
	In the event of termination of employment, a six-month mutual termination
period applies for the President. In termination of employment of the President
by the Company, a severance pay corresponding to 12 cash monthly salaries is
paid after the close of the termination period. Other income is not deducted
from the severance pay. In the event of termination notice by the President, no
severance payment is made.
	Between the Company and four of the other senior executives, a mutual notice
period of three months applies. The fifth senior executive has a mutual notice
period of six months. In the event of termination by the Company, salary is paid
during the termination period. Other income is not deduced from the amount. In
termination by the senior executive, salary is paid during the termination
period. Other income is not deduced from the amount.
	Deviations from the guidelines specified above may be decided by the Board, if
there are specific reasons in individual cases.

Proposal of criteria regarding appointment of members to the Nomination
Committee, etc.	
The Meeting adopted the Board's proposal that the criteria currently applicable
regarding appointment of members to the Nomination Committee, etc., with the
addition below, shall also apply for 2007, that is, that members of the
Nomination Committee shall be appointed in accordance with the following:
•	The three largest shareholders in the Company as of August 31 the year before
the Annual General Meeting shall, on September 30 the year before or at the
latest six months before the Annual General Meeting, elect a representative each
as a member of the Nomination Committee. 
•	The Nomination Committee shall then internally elect one of the members as the
Chairman. In the event that one of the three largest shareholders does not elect
a representative to the Nomination Committee, the fourth largest shareholder
shall instead elect a representative or, if the fourth largest shareholder also
declines, the shareholders shall thereafter, in a descending order, elect a
representative until three representatives are appointed. 
•	In the event that a member leaves the Nomination Committee before the work of
the Nomination Committee is completed, the shareholder that appointed the member
shall appoint a new member. In the event that this shareholder declines to
appoint a  new representative, the fourth largest shareholder shall instead
elect a representative or, if the fourth largest shareholder also declines, the
shareholders shall thereafter, in a descending order, elect a representative
until a new representative is appointed.

The Nomination Committee shall develop and present proposals to the Annual
General Meeting for decision on the following matters:
1. Election of the Meeting Chairman
2. Determination of the Board fees
3. Election of the Chairman and other Board members
4. Any proposals for changes in the procedures for appointing the Nomination
Committee.
No fee is paid to the Nomination Committee. However, the Company is responsible
for all reasonable costs related to carrying out the Nomination Committee's
assignment.

Decision authorizing the Board to make decisions pertaining to new share issues 
The Meeting further decided to authorize the Board of Directors, during the
period until the next Annual General Meeting, to make decisions on one or more
occasions in regard to new share issues totaling not more than 6,856,000 shares.
In this regard, the Board shall have the right to waive the preferential rights
of shareholders and the provision stated in Chapter 13, § 5, item 6 of the
Swedish Companies Act. The issue price for the new shares shall, in each
instance, be set as close as possible to the market price of the Company's
share. The purpose of the authorization is to enable corporate acquisitions to
be made with payment entirely or partly in Axis shares. Full exercise of the
authorization would result in a maximum dilution of the Company's share capital
of 9.9 percent (excluding possible dilution that may result from the exercise of
those warrants that entitle the holders to subscribe for shares during the valid
period of authorization up until the next Annual General Meeting, that is
warrants 2002/2007 and 2000/2010, which dilution could amount to a maximum of
0.49 percent).

All decisions at the Annual General Meeting were reached with the required
majority.
