resolution of the Annual General Meeting, consists of:

election of the new Board member Barbro Fridén (Director of the Children's
Division at the Astrid Lindgren Children's Hospital, Karolinska University
Hospital). The Board member Semmy Rülf has declined re-election. It is proposed
that Patrik Tigerschiöld be re-elected as Chairman of the Board. 
It is proposed that Board fees of SEK 700,000 be paid, with SEK 200,000 to the
Chairman of the Board and SEK 100,000 kronor to each of the other members of the
Board. The proposal means that the total Board fee is unchanged from the
previous year. 
Furthermore, the Election Committee proposes that a new Election Committee be
set up for the Annual General Meeting of 2011. It is proposed that the Election
Committee is appointed in the same way as previously, whereby the Chairman of
the Board contacts the three largest registered shareholders or otherwise known
owners at the end of the third quarter of 2010 and asks them to appoint one
member each. The three members who are appointed and the Chairman of the Board
constitute the Election Committee. The Election Committee appoints a Chairman
internally.
