Proposal for resolution under Item 14
The board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting adopt the
following guidelines for remuneration for the senior management.

Remuneration to the CEO and other senior managers will be a fixed amount (base
salary), possible variable remuneration, additional benefits and pension. Other
senior managers include the executive vice presidents, business unit managers
and the like, as well as the central staff managers. The total remuneration is
to correspond to market practice and be competitive on the senior manager’s
field of profession. Fixed and variable remuneration is to be linked to the
manager’s responsibility and authority. For the CEO, as well as for other senior
managers, the variable remuneration is to be limited and linked to the fixed
remuneration. The variable remuneration is to be based on the outcome of
predetermined objectives and, as far as possible, be linked to the increase of
value of the SCA share, from which the shareholders benefit. The programme for
variable remuneration should be formulated so that the board of directors, in
the event of exceptional financial conditions, may limit, or forebear, payment
of variable remuneration if such a measure is deemed to be reasonable and in
accordance with the company’s responsibility to the shareholders, employees and
other stakeholders. In the event of termination of employment, the notice period
should normally be two years should the termination be initiated by the company,
and one year, when initiated by the senior manager. Severance pay should not
exist. Pension benefits are to be determined either by benefit or charge, or by
a combination hereof, and entitle the senior manager to pension from the age of
60, at the earliest. To earn the pension benefits, the period of employment must
be long, at present 20 years. When resigning before the age entitling to
pension, the senior manager will receive a paid-up pension policy from the age
of 60. The pension is not to be based on variable remuneration. Matters of
remuneration to the senior management are to be dealt with by a remuneration
committee and, as regards the CEO, be resolved by the board of directors.

The proposal means unchanged guidelines in relation to 2013.
