Item 18. Resolution concerning remuneration guidelines for executive management The board proposes that the AGM pass a resolution on the following remuneration guidelines for executive management. Fixed salary The fixed salary shall be determined by the individual executive's responsibilities, experience and results achieved. The fixed salary is normally revised annually. Variable pay The variable pay is based on achieved operational objectives, the main part of which corresponds to financial goals. The variable remuneration is paid in the form of traditional variable pay to the CEO at an amount corresponding to a maximum of 50 per cent of fixed salary and to other executives at a maximum amount equal to 30 per cent of fixed salary. The board also has the right to design variable pay systems so that the total variable remuneration to the CEO is an amount equal to 100 per cent of fixed salary, and to other executives an amount equal to 50 per cent of fixed salary, provided that such variable pay is linked to well defined commitments to purchase shares for a substantial part of the compensation. The objective of variable pay is normally revised annually. Long-term incentive programmes Long-term incentive programmes such as options plans, equity savings plans with share matching or similar constructions may form part of the remuneration of executive management at Cybercom from time to time as decided by the AGM. Pensions Pension provision should be at market terms and using defined contributions. The company aims to offer competitive and market-adjusted overall remuneration to executives, of which the pension forms a part and where the balance between pension and basic salary is agreed upon in each case. Other benefits Other benefits are provided in accordance with local practice. Examples of such benefits are medical insurance and company cars. The total value of these benefits must be limited proportionate to the total compensation and correspond to normal market practice. Termination Cybercom shall act with restraint when the length of notice and severance agreements are adopted. The notice period shall not normally exceed 6 months. Severance pay shall be applied with restraint, not be paid as a lump sum but over a period, and also involve a non-competition agreement and with deductions for any compensation from other employment or assignments and shall not exceed 12 months’ salary. Other There are a few deviations from these guidelines in existing contracts. These will not be adjusted. The above guidelines may be waived by the board if necessary in individual cases where there are special circumstances. Item 19. Resolution on changes to the articles of association The board proposes that the purpose of the company in section 3 of the articles of association be changed to: The purpose of the company is, directly or indirectly, to engage in consultancy services in technical and systems development, programming, analysis, business development, advisory services, training, operation and maintenance services in the field of information technology, development, license and transfer software and hardware, owning and managing real estate and chattels and to conduct other related activities. Qualified majority A valid decision as per the board's proposal in item 19 requires that the resolution be supported by shareholders with at least two-thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the AGM. Number of shares and votes in the company The total number of shares and votes in the company on the date this notification was issued is 36,087,899.
