Proposals by the Board of Directors

Proposal for allocation of the company’s result (item 10)
The board of directors proposes that no dividend be paid for the financial year
2013 and that the funds available for disposal of the annual general meeting of
SEK 13,928,475, including the loss for the year amounting to SEK -22,084,405,
are carried forward.

Resolution on principles for remuneration of executive management (item 18)
The board of directors proposal for guidelines regarding remuneration of
executive management is in principle the same as was adopted by the annual
general meeting 2013, except for the previous requirement that recipients of
variable remuneration should invest a certain amount of the remuneration in Karo
Bio shares. The proposal entails the following main points:

For a satisfactory performance, remuneration shall be paid as a fixed salary. In
addition to fixed salary, executives may also receive variable remuneration, as
a reward for achieving targets in simple and transparent structures. The
executives’ remuneration according to incentive programs should be based on the
extent to which stated operational goals are achieved. Karo Bio’s commitment
under incentive programs should be limited in relation to the fixed salary and
not exceed 40 per cent of the fixed annual salary, before social costs, for each
executive during the applicable time period. Remuneration shall include pension
and holiday remuneration.

The executives’ pension benefits shall be competitive in relation to what is
generally applicable for corresponding executives on the market, and shall be
based upon defined benefit pension schemes, or be connected to the ITP plan.
Pension benefits are based on a retirement age of 65.

The executives’ non-monetary benefits (e.g. car and health care benefits) should
facilitate the execution of the work and be determined by what is considered
reasonable in relation to market custom and the benefit to the company.

Notice and severance pay shall in total not exceed 12 months’ salary for each
executive.

The guidelines shall include the CEO of Karo Bio and the executive management
that report directly to the CEO as well as possible CEO’s of subsidiaries. To
the extent a director of the board performs services on behalf of the company in
addition to the work in the board, consulting fees on market terms may be
payable. The board may derogate from the guidelines in an individual case where
there are special reasons for doing so.

Resolution for authorization of the board of directors to resolve on new issues
of shares (item 19)
The board of directors proposes that the meeting authorizes the board of
directors to, on one or several occasions prior to the next annual general,
resolve on new share issues. The number of shares to be issued by virtue of the
authorization shall not exceed 10 per cent of the registered share capital (at
the time of the share issue resolution). The new share may be made with our
without deviation from the shareholders’ pre-emption right and with or without
terms of issue in kind or set-off or other terms. The purpose of the
authorization is to increase the company’s financial flexibility and enable
acquisitions through payment with shares. If the board of directors resolves on
a share issue with deviation from the shareholders’ pre-emption right, the
reasons shall be to provide the company with new capital and/or new shareholders
of strategic importance for the company and/or acquisitions of other companies
or businesses. When deviating from the shareholders’ pre-emption right the basis
for the subscription price shall be on market terms. Other terms may be resolved
by the board of directors.

A valid resolution requires that the proposal is supported by shareholders
representing at least two-thirds of both the votes cast and the shares
represented at the meeting.

Information at the general meeting
At the annual general meeting, the board and the CEO shall, if any shareholder
so requests and the board believes that it can be done without material harm to
the company, provide information about conditions that may affect the assessment
of an item on the agenda and the assessment of the company’s financial position.
The corresponding disclosure obligation also applies in relation to
subsidiaries. The disclosure obligation also applies to the company’s relation
to other group companies and the consolidated accounts.

Available documents and information
Accounting documents, the auditor’s report, the auditor’s statement regarding
compliance with existing principles for remuneration of executive management and
the complete proposals will be available at the company and on the company’s
website at least three weeks before the meeting. Copies of the documents will be
sent free of charge to shareholders who request these documents and state their
address. The nomination committee’s motivated statement to its proposal for
members of the board will be announced on the company’s website as soon as it
has been received by the company.

company amounts to 495,947,369. The company holds no treasury shares.
