Allocation of the Company’s earnings (item 7 b)

The Board proposes that the result for the year be carried forward and that no
dividend is paid for the financial year 2013.

 

Election of directors, Chairman of the Board, auditor and fees (items 8-10)

The Nomination Committee proposes that the Board should consist of seven
directors.  The Nomination Committee further proposes re-election of directors
Björn Lindström, Hans Berggren, Richard N. Edgar, Peter Geijerman, Freddie
Linder, Zenon Potoczny and Katre Saard. Björn Lindström is proposed to be
re-elected as Chairman of the Board.

The Nomination Committee proposes that the company should have one auditor and
no alternate auditor. The Nomination Committee further proposes re-election of
the authorized auditing firm Ernst & Young AB.

The Nomination Committee further proposes that the general meeting resolves
that board fees be paid to the Chairman in the amount of SEK 200,000 (increase
by SEK 40,000 compared to previous year) and SEK 100,000 (increase by SEK
20,000 compared to previous year) to each of the other directors with the
exception of Zenon Potoczny who is employed in the Group. A fee in the amount
of SEK 50,000 (increase by SEK 50,000) shall be paid for committee work to the
Chairman of the Audit Committee. Fees will thus total SEK 750 000, including
for committee work. It is proposed that the auditors be paid fees in accordance
with approved invoices.

 

Guidelines for compensation to senior executives (item 11)

The Board proposes that the general meeting adopt guidelines for compensation
to senior executives with essentially the same content as the guidelines
adopted at the 2013 annual general meeting, entailing the following.
Compensation to management shall be on market terms and competitive in order to
enable the Company to retain qualified employees. The compensation level for
the individual executive shall be based on factors such as position, expertise,
experience and performance. In addition to fixed salary, it shall be possible
for management to receive variable salary, pensions, other benefits as well as
an incentive program. The fixed salary, which shall be individual and
differentiated based on the individual’s responsibilities, experience and
performance, shall be determined based on market principles. Variable salary
shall be based on the Company’s earnings growth, aimed at promoting the
Company’s long term value creation. The annual variable portion of salary may
normally not exceed 30 per cent of fixed salary. Share- and share-price-related
incentive programs are to be designed so that the vesting period or the period
from the commencement of an agreement to the date for acquisition of shares is
to be no less than three years. Other benefits shall correspond to what is
deemed reasonable relative to practice on the market. The portions are intended
to create a balanced compensation and benefits program which reflects the
performance and responsibilities of the employees as well as the Company’s
earnings trend. The Board shall be entitled to deviate from these guidelines
where special reasons exist in an individual case.

 

Resolution regarding Nomination Committee (item 12)

The Nomination Committee proposes that the general meeting resolves on the
following principles for election of a Nomination Committee with essentially
the same content as the guidelines adopted at the 2013 annual general meeting:
The Company shall have a Nomination Committee which shall consist of the
Chairman of the Board and three other members, who shall each represent the
three largest shareholders (by votes) of the Company, based on the share
register maintained by Euroclear Sweden AB of registered shareholders (per
group of owners) on 30 September 2014. A shareholder who is not registered in
its own name in the aforementioned register and who wishes to be represented on
the Nomination Committee shall notify this to the Chairman of the Board and
shall provide evidence of its shareholding.

As soon as possible, after the end of the month of September, the Chairman of
the Board shall contact the three largest shareholders (by votes) in accordance
with the above, and request that they appoint one member each. If anyone of
those shareholders refrains from using its rights to appoint a member, the
right passes to the shareholder that after these shareholders has the largest
shareholding. The names of the members of the Nomination Committee and the
names of the shareholders, whom they represent, shall be made public not later
than six months before the annual general meeting. The Nomination Committee
elects its Chairman, though however the Chairman of the Board shall not be
Chairman of the Committee.

The Nomination Committee’s duties shall be to prepare and present proposals to
the shareholders at the 2015 annual general meeting regarding election of a
chairman of the meeting, the Chairman of the Board, directors and, where
appropriate, auditors, as well as fees to the Board of Directors and auditors.
The appointment shall extend until such time as a new Nomination Committee is
appointed. In the event that the shareholder, who the member represents, has
materially reduced its holding in the Company, the member shall resign from the
Nomination Committee and the Committee shall offer the largest shareholder, who
is not represented on the Nomination Committee, the opportunity to appoint a
new member. In the event a member for other reason resigns from the Nomination
Committee before the Committee’s work is completed, a new member shall be
appointed according to the same principles. No fees shall be paid to the
members of the Nomination Committee. However, where necessary the Company may
be liable for reasonable costs for external consultants, which the Nomination
Committee considers necessary for the performance of its duties.

 

Authorization of the Board to decide on new issues (item 13)

The Board of Directors proposes that the annual general meeting authorizes the
Board, on one or more occasions during the period until next annual general
meeting, to decide on issues of new shares, warrants and/or convertible
debentures in exchange for cash payment and/or with provisions regarding
payment in kind or by set-off or otherwise with conditions, and that it
thereupon be possible to derogate from the shareholders’ pre-emption rights.
The purpose of the authorization and the reason for the derogation from the
shareholders’ pre-emption rights is to facilitate the raising of capital for
expansion through corporate acquisitions or acquisitions of business assets and
for the Company’s business as well as the adjustment of the company’s capital
and/or ownership structure. The total number of shares which may be issued
pursuant to the authorization may not exceed 10.0 percent of the total number
of shares at the time of the annual general meeting, which would correspond to
issuing 1,726,662 shares calculated on the current issued shares in the
company. In the event an issue is made by way of deviation from the
shareholders’ pre-emption rights, the issue shall be made on market terms. Any
issue pursuant to the authorization shall refer to shares of series A and
series B or any of them.
