funds/SEB-Trygg Försäkring) together with Anders Narvinger (Chairman of the
Board of Directors) were elected to the Nomination Committee.

The AGM decided to approve a proposal from the Swedish state regarding
Guidelines for remuneration to the executive management. The guidelines do not,
in contrast to a proposal from the Board of Directors, give a possibility to
enter into contracts which include variable salaries with members of the
executive management. 

The AGM decided to implement a long-term incentive program 2010/2013 and hedging
arrangements for the program. The program may include approximately 100 persons.
Due to the AGM's decision on Guidelines for remuneration to the executive
management, members of the executive management will not take part in the
program. 

In order to provide the Board of Directors with an instrument to adapt and
improve
the company's capital structure and thereby create added value for the
shareholders, the Annual General Meeting authorized the Board of Directors to
carry out acquisitions of own shares at one or more occasions prior to the
Annual General Meeting 2011 on Nasdaq OMX Stockholm and/or Nasdaq OMX Helsinki
or in
accordance with an offer to acquire shares directed to all shareholders, whereby
a
maximum of 10 percent of all shares in the company may be acquired.
