Matters to be decided

Item 2 – Election of chairman of the Annual General Meeting

The Nominations Committee, appointed in accordance with the procedure decided by
the 2014 Annual General Meeting, comprises Gabriel Berg (JCE Group) chairman of
the Nominations Committee, Evert Carlsson (Swedbank Robur fonder), Frank Larsson
(Handelsbanken Fonder) and Semcon AB’s Chairman Kjell Nilsson, who together
represent around 37 per cent of the votes associated with all the shares in the
company. The Nominations Committee proposes Kjell Nilsson as chairman of the
Annual General Meeting.

Item 9 – Decision regarding appropriation of the company’s profits according to
the adopted balance sheet and record date for dividend

The Board proposes that a dividend of SEK 2.50 per share be paid out and that
all remaining profits at the Annual General Meeting’s disposal be carried
forward. It is proposed that the record date for the dividend be 30 April 2015.
If the Annual General Meeting votes in accordance with the proposal, payment is
expected to be made via Euroclear Sweden AB on 6 May 2015.

Item 12 – Decision regarding the number of Board members and deputies

The Nominations Committee proposes that there be five Board members and no
deputies.

Item 13 – Decision regarding number of auditors and deputy auditors or
registered public accounting firms

The Nominations Committee proposes that a registered public accounting firm be
appointed auditor of the company.

Item 14 – Determination of remuneration to the Board of Directors

The Nominations Committee proposes, similarly to last year, that a total fee of
SEK 1,610,000 shall be paid to Board members elected by the meeting, of which
SEK 550,000 to the chairman and SEK 265,000 to each of the other members elected
by the meeting. The Nominations Committee further proposes that no special fees
be paid for work on Board committees.

Item 15 – Determination of remuneration to the auditors

The Nominations Committee proposes that the fee paid to auditors be made on open
account, approved by the company.

Item 16 – Election of Board chairman, Board members and possible deputies

The Nominations Committee proposes the re-election of Kjell Nilsson, Marianne
Brismar, Gunvor Engström and Håkan Larsson as Board members and the election of
Tore Bertilsson as a Board member. The Nominations Committee proposes that Kjell
Nilsson be re-elected as chairman. Board member Joakim Olsson has declined re
-election. Kjell Nilsson was President and CEO between 2008 – 2012 and cannot be
considered independent in relation to the company and the senior management
team, but he can be considered independent in relation to the major
shareholders. Tore Bertilsson is not considered independent in relation to major
shareholders since he is a Board member of a company that is a major shareholder
in the company but he can be considered independent in relation to the company
and the senior management team. The other proposed Board members can be
considered independent in relation to the company, the senior management team
and the major shareholders. The Nominations Committee’s justifications for these
proposals and information about the proposed Board members are available on the
company’s website, www.semcon.com.

Item 17 – Election of auditors and deputy auditors or registered public
accounting firms

The 2014 Annual General Meeting elected Deloitte AB as auditors of the company
up to the time of the end of the 2015 Annual General Meeting. The Nominations
Committee proposes that the registered public accounting firm Deloitte AB be re
-elected as the company’s auditor for a period of one year.

Item 18 – Decision regarding the nominations committee

The nominations committee proposes, like last year, that the company shall have
a nominations committee, that no remuneration be paid to the nominations
committee although the company shall pay the costs of the nominations committee,
and that there be a nominations process with the following content. The
nominations committee shall comprise the chairman of the Board and three, or in
some cases four, additional members. Based on the shareholder statistics on 31
August, the chairman of the Board shall contact the three largest shareholders
(based on number of votes) and ask each of them to appoint one member of the
nominations committee. If a shareholder declines this offer, the offer shall be
made to the next largest shareholder. The member proposed by the shareholder
holding the most votes shall act as chairman of the nominations committee. If
there are changes in the shareholder structure after 31 August and earlier than
two months before the Annual General Meeting, and if a shareholder consequently
becomes one of the three largest shareholders and wishes to be represented on
the nominations committee, then this shareholder shall have the right to either
appoint an additional committee member or, if the nominations committee so
decides, to appoint a representative to replace the representative of the
shareholder who has the least number of votes after the ownership changes. If a
member of the nominations committee resigns or is unable to fulfill his or her
obligations, then the chairman shall without delay ask the shareholder to
appoint a new representative within a reasonable time. If the shareholder
declines to replace a representative the place on the committee shall be offered
to the next largest shareholder who has not already appointed a representative
or who has refrained from doing so. The nominations committee shall perform the
duties that from time to time arise in accordance with Swedish Corporate
Governance Code. The duties of the nominations committee include making
proposals for (i) chairman of the Annual General Meeting, (ii) chairman of the
Board and other Board members, (iii) fees and other remuneration for Board
assignments for each Board member, (iv) fees for auditors, (v) selection of
auditors and (vi) fees for members of the nomination committee and proposals for
the nomination process in general.

Item 19 – Decision regarding guidelines for determining salaries and other
remuneration to senior executives

The Board proposes that the meeting establish guidelines for determining
salaries and other remuneration to senior executives with the following main
content. The company shall have a remuneration level and other employment terms
that are needed to recruit and keep senior executives with the right skills and
capabilities to achieve the company’s objectives. Total remuneration – made up
of various components such as fixed salary, bonus, participation in share-linked
incentive scheme, pension benefits and other remuneration and benefits – shall
be reasonable, competitive and market-based, and shall be decided with regard
to, among other things, performance, position and importance for the Group. A
fixed salary shall be paid for fulfilled work and shall normally be reviewed
once a year. A bonus shall be offered, but shall be primarily based on results
and bonus targets, established once a year, and be a maximum of 6 months’
salary. Senior executives shall be given the right to arrange individual pension
solutions under certain provisions via salary or bonus waivers. Pension
solutions shall be premium-based. Notice of resignation from key decision-makers
shall be a minimum of 6 and maximum of 12 months. Notice of dismissal from the
company’s side shall be at most 12 months. Dismissal salary and severance
compensation combined shall not exceed 12 months’ salary. In addition, other
remuneration and benefits may be offered to facilitate possibilities to complete
work assignments. The Board has the right to deviate from these guidelines in
individual cases if there is good reason. To ensure continuity, the Board’s
proposals are in line with previous years’ remuneration principles and
agreements.

Item 20 – Decision regarding establishing a long-term performance-related share
savings scheme for senior executives and key personnel including a resolution
authorizing the Board to decide on the acquisition of the company’s own shares
and transfer the company’s own shares to participations in the scheme, etc.

Background and reasons for the proposal etc.

The reason for the proposal, and for deviating from preferential rights for
shareholders, is that the Board of Semcon AB (hereafter called “Semcon” or “the
Company”) wants to create conditions for keeping and recruiting senior
executives and key personnel in and to the Semcon Group by increasing the
shareholdings of these people. When employees own Semcon shares it can be
expected to stimulate an increased interest in the business and the development
of earnings, raise motivation, increase solidarity with the Company (and
subsidiaries) and create a Group-wide focus. With this background it is
considered that a decision to establish a long-term performance-related share
savings scheme in accordance with the proposal (“Performance-related Share
Savings Scheme 2015”) will have a positive effect on the continued development
of the Semcon Group and thereby give benefits both to shareholders and the
employees of the Semcon Group who participate in the scheme. Performance-related
Share Savings Scheme 2015 will involve shares corresponding to a maximum of 1.34
per cent of the total number of issued shares and votes. In summary, around 110
senior executives and key personnel in the Semcon Group will be offered the
opportunity to participate in the scheme that will run for a 12-month period
once it is implemented. Participation shall be conditional on the individual’s
investment in the purchase of ordinary shares corresponding to an amount that is
at most 5 per cent of the participant’s gross salary. Provided that the acquired
shares are held by the employee for three years, the employee shall be allocated
free-of-charge a corresponding number of ordinary shares (“Matching Shares”) and
– provided that the performance requirements stated below are met – an
additional one to four ordinary shares (“Performance Shares”) for each acquired
share. The conditions that are set, in addition to the requirement that the
employee shall retain the acquired shares for three years, for the allocation of
Performance Shares shall be based on the following: Semcon’s average annual
percentage increase in earnings per share (“EPS”) between 2014 and 2017 shall be
at least 5 per cent. The base value for the calculation of the increase in EPS
shall be the EPS for 2014. The maximum amount of Performance Shares shall be
allocated if the average increase in EPS is equal to, or more than, 15 per cent.
No allocation of Performance Shares in accordance with this point shall be made
if the average annual increase in EPS is equal to or less than 5 per cent. The
Matching of Performance Shares in the event of an average annual increase in EPS
between 5 and 15 per cent shall be linear. The Board may, after participation in
the scheme and the initial effects of it have been assessed, address whether new
shares savings schemes will be proposed in future Annual General Meetings
following the 2015 Annual General Meeting.

Financing

The Board has considered various methods for transferring shares to employees in
Performance-related Share Savings Scheme 2015; such as acquisition and transfer
of the company’s own shares and a share swap agreement with third party. The
Board considers that the acquisition and transfer of the company’s own shares is
the most cost-effective and flexible method for transferring shares in
Performance-related Share Savings Scheme 2015. The Company’s current holding of
its own shares amounts to 142,718 shares. These shares will be used in
Performance-related Share Savings Scheme 2015, but this amount is not sufficient
to complete the scheme in full. The Board therefore proposes that a further
maximum 100,000 ordinary shares shall be acquired for transfer to participants
in Performance-related Share Savings Scheme 2015, see the heading “Proposal for
decision” below for more details. Since costs in connection with a share swap
agreement significantly exceed the costs for the acquisition and transfer of the
company’s own shares, it is proposed as the main alternative that the financial
exposure is secured through the acquisition and transfer of the company’s own
shares.

Costs

A preliminary cost calculation for Performance-related Share Savings Scheme 2015
is based on the assumption of a 100% participation in the scheme, an assessment
of a 5 per cent staff turnover among participants per year and that each
participant makes their own investment corresponding to the highest permitted
amount. The value of Matching Shares and Performance Shares has been calculated
based on a share price (price as of 25 March 2015) of SEK 61 at the start of the
scheme minus the current value of the estimated dividend for fiscal years 2015
-2017. Estimated payroll overhead have been based on an assumed average share
price at the time of allocation of SEK 81, meaning an annual share price
increase of 10 per cent. The overall effect on the income statement is estimated
at around SEK 6 to 15 million, including payroll overhead and administration
costs, unevenly spread over the years 2015-2019. The effect is dependent on the
allocation of Performance Shares, where SEK 15 million represents the calculated
cost upon full allocation of Performance Shares and SEK 6 million represents the
calculated cost without allocation of Performance Shares. The costs shall be
seen in relation to the total salary costs for 2014 for companies within the
Semcon Group, which amounted to SEK 1,718 million, including payroll overhead.
Of the above-mentioned total costs it is estimated that compensation costs,
corresponding to the value of shares transferred to employees, will be around
SEK 3 to 10 million. In addition, administration costs are estimated at a
maximum of SEK 1 million. The cost for payroll overhead is estimated at between
SEK 2 to 5 million. In the event that a share swap agreement is initiated to
secure commitments in the scheme, costs are calculated to increase by around SEK
1 million.

Dilution and effects on key financial indicators

There are 18,112,534 issued shares in the Company. As of 31 December 2014 the
Company owned 142,718 of its own shares. Establishing Performance-related Share
Savings Scheme 2015 requires a further 100,000 ordinary shares, corresponding to
0.55 per cent of the total number of outstanding shares. Of the total 242,718
ordinary shares required for Performance-related Share Savings Scheme 2015, only
the company’s own shares/existing shares will be used and all ordinary shares
may be transferred free-of-charge to employees, which may lead to a dilution in
earnings per share of 1.34 per cent. The dilution effect on shares is
independent of the share price at the time of matching as they will be
transferred free-of-charge to the employee.

Preparation of the proposal

This proposal has been prepared by the Board with the help of external advisors.
Furthermore, certain larger shareholders have been informed about the proposal.
In addition to staff who has prepared the proposal for the Board, no employee
who may be included in Performance-related Share Savings Scheme 2015 has
participated in the formulation of its conditions. The CEO has not participated
in preparation of the proposal.

Proposal for decision

A. Decision to establish a long-term performance-related share savings scheme
for senior executives and key personnel

The Board proposes that the Annual General Meeting establish Performance-related
Share Savings Scheme 2015 comprising at most 242,718 ordinary shares, primarily
in accordance with the following guidelines:

1)     Around 110 senior executives and key personnel in the Semcon Group, with
exception for that which is stated below in point 3, will be offered an
opportunity to participate in Performance-related Share Savings Scheme 2015.

2)     Employees who participate in Performance-related Share Savings Scheme
2015 may save an amount equivalent to at most 5 per cent of their gross salary
for the purchase of ordinary shares on Nasdaq Stockholm during a 12-month period
starting from when the scheme is implemented. If the purchased shares are
retained by the employee for three years after the date of the investment and
employment or comparable employment in the Semcon Group is continued throughout
the full three-year period, the employee shall be allocated free-of-charge by
the Semcon Group a corresponding amount of Matching Shares and – provided that
the performance requirements in point 4 are met – a further 1-4 Performance
Shares for each purchased share as follows. Category 1: Around 60 managers and
other key personnel in the Semcon Group may be given the right to further
matching of at most one Performance Share for each purchased share. Category 2:
Around 40 senior executives among, inter alia, the management teams of the
business areas in the Semcon Group may be given the right to further matching of
at most two Performance Shares for each purchased share. Category 3: Around 6
senior executives of the Semcon Group management team may be given the right to
further matching of at most four Performance Shares for each purchased share.
The Board or the individual(s) appointed by the Board shall determine which
managers and other key personnel of the Semcon Group and which senior executives
among, inter alia, management teams of the business areas in the Semcon Group
shall be offered the right to participate in the scheme (Category 1 and Category
2). The Board shall appoint which senior executives in Semcon Group management
team shall be offered the right to participate in the scheme (Category 3). The
Board shall have the right to permit advance matching, i.e. despite the fact
that the three-year requirement for holding shares or the employment requirement
has not been fulfilled, although only in “good leaver” situations.

3)     Participation in Performance-related Share Savings Scheme 2015 is
conditional partly on participation being legally acceptable, and partly on
participation involving in the assessment of the Company reasonable
administration costs and financial efforts. The Board reserves the right to
introduce an alternative incentive solution for employees in countries where
participation in Performance-related Share Savings Scheme 2015 is not suitable.
These incentive solutions shall, as far as is practicably possible, be
formulated using comparable conditions to Performance-related Share Savings
Scheme 2015.

4)     The conditions for allocation of Performance Shares as part of
Performance-related Share Savings Scheme 2015 shall be based on the following:
Semcon’s average annual percentage increase in earnings per share (“EPS”) shall
be at least 5 per cent for the year 2014 to 2017. The base value for calculation
of the increase in EPS shall be the EPS for 2014. The maximum number of
Performance Shares will be allocated if the average increase in EPS is equal to
or more than 15 per cent. No allocation of Performance Shares in accordance with
this point shall be made if the average annual increase in EPS is equal to or
less than 5 per cent. Matching of Performance Shares in the event of an average
annual increase in EPS of between 5 and 15 per cent shall be linear.

5)     Before the number of Performance Shares that may be finally allocated
shall be determined the Board shall assess whether significant changes have
occurred within the Company, Group or the market. If the Board finds this to be
the case the Board shall be able to decide to reduce the number of Performance
Shares allocated to a lower number of shares that the Board considers
appropriate for all or some of those covered by the scheme.

6)     The number of Matching Shares and Performance Shares shall be re
-calculated in the event of intermediate consolidation or splits of shares,
bonus issues of new shares and/or other similar measure.

7)     The Board shall be responsible for the detailed formulation and
management of Performance-related Share Savings Scheme 2015 within the framework
of the main guidelines that have been submitted.

8)     A decision in accordance with this Item A shall be conditional upon the
meeting either deciding in accordance with the Board’s proposals in Items B and
C below or deciding in accordance with the Board’s proposal for decision in Item
D below.

B. Decision to authorize the Board to decide to acquire the company’s own shares

The Company’s current holding of its own shares is not sufficient to implement
Performance-related Share Savings Scheme 2015. Consequently, the Board proposes
that the Annual General Meeting votes to authorize the Board up to the time of
the next Annual General Meeting on one or more occasions to decide to purchase
the Company’s own ordinary shares on the following terms:

1)     Purchase shall only be made in order to meet the Company’s commitments in
relation to Performance-related Share Savings Scheme 2015.

2)     Purchase shall only be performed on Nasdaq Stockholm or through a
directed purchase offer to all owners of ordinary shares in the Company.

3)     At most 100,000 ordinary shares shall be purchased.

4)     Purchase on Nasdaq Stockholm shall be at a price per share within the
current share price range at any time for ordinary shares in the Company, or in
the event that the Board assigns a stock exchange member to accumulate a certain
amount of the Company’s shares for their own holding during a specific period at
a price per share within the current share price range or equivalent volume
-weighted average price, and purchase through a purchase offer shall be at a
price per share that as a maximum corresponds to the exchange price for ordinary
shares in the Company at the time of the offer plus a maximum of twenty per
cent.

5)     Payment for purchased ordinary shares in the Company shall be made in
cash.

6)     The applicable rules of Nasdaq Stockholm shall be observed upon purchase.

7)     The Board reserves the right to set additional conditions for the
purchase.

8)     Authorization also includes the right to acquire the higher amount of
shares that may result from a re-calculation following a share split, bonus
issue of new shares and/or similar measure.

C. Decision to transfer the company’s own shares to participants in Performance
-related Share Savings Scheme 2015

In order to meet the Company’s commitments to participants in Performance
-related Share Savings Scheme 2015 the Board proposes that the Annual General
Meeting votes to transfer a maximum of 242,718 of the company’s own shares in
the Company on the following terms:

1)     In deviation of preferential rights for shareholders, only those
participating in Performance-related Share Savings Scheme 2015, and subsidiaries
of the Semcon Group, shall have the right to acquire shares. Acquisition shall
be without charge. Subsidiaries that acquire shares shall immediately and
without charge transfer them to participants in Performance-related Share
Savings Scheme 2015.

2)     Participants in Performance-related Share Savings Scheme 2015 and
subsidiaries of the Semcon Group shall, on one or more occasions, exercise their
rights to acquire shares during the period when participants in Performance
-related Share Savings Scheme 2015 have the right to receive shares in
accordance with the terms of Performance-related Share Savings Scheme 2015.

3)     The reason for deviating from preferential rights for shareholders is to
create a cost-effective solution for meeting the Company’s commitments in
accordance with Performance-related Share Savings Scheme 2015.

4)     If a consolidation or share split, issue of bonus shares and/or other
similar measure occurs before the transfer/acquisition of shares, the number of
shares to be transferred/acquired shall be increased or decreased so that after
such a measure they correspond to an unchanged percentage of the Company’s
shares.

D. Decision to enter share swap agreement with third party

In the event that the necessary majority for a valid decision relating to the
proposals in Items B and C above is not achieved, the Board proposes that the
Annual General Meeting votes to allow the Company to enter a share swap
agreement with a third party in order to secure delivery of shares to
participants in Performance-related Share Savings Scheme 2015, whereby the third
party under its own name shall acquire and transfer ordinary shares in the
Company to employees covered by Performance-related Share Savings Scheme 2015.
Third party acquisition of shares shall take place via Nasdaq Stockholm.

Item 21– Decision to authorize the Board to decide on new issues of ordinary
shares

The reason for the proposal, and the reason for deviating from preferential
rights for existing shareholders, is that the Board wishes to create cost
-efficient and flexible opportunities for making payments for acquisitions of
companies or businesses or parts thereof. The Board proposes that the Annual
General Meeting authorize the Board up to the time of the next Annual General
Meeting, on one or more occasions, to decide on the new issue of ordinary shares
in the company on the following conditions:

1)     New shares may only be issued to enable use of ordinary shares as
liquidity in the acquisition of companies or businesses or parts thereof.

2)     New shares may be issued with deviation from existing shareholders’
preferential rights.

3)     The new share issue shall comprise a maximum of 1,811,253 ordinary
shares.

4)     The subscription price shall correspond to the share’s assessed market
value at the time of issue.

5)     Payment for the shares shall be in capital contributed in kind through
settlement of a receivable.

6)     The Board has the right to set other conditions for new issues.

On full utilization of the authorization to issue new shares, the total number
of shares and votes in the company can increase by 1,811,253, representing
dilution of around ten per cent of current shares and votes.

Item 22 – Decision to authorize the Board to decide on the acquisition and
transfer of the company’s own shares
The reason for the proposal, and the reason for deviating from preferential
rights for existing shareholders, is that the Board wishes to create cost
-efficient and flexible opportunities for improving the company’s capital
structure and thereby increase share value, and for making payments for, or
financing, acquisitions of companies or businesses or parts thereof.

A. Decision regarding authorizing the Board to decide on the acquisition of own
shares

The Board proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorize the Board up to the
time of the next Annual General Meeting on one or more occasions to decide on
the acquisition of ordinary shares in the company on the following conditions:

1)     Purchases shall only be made to improve the company’s capital structure
or to enable use of ordinary shares as liquidity in making payments for, or
financing, acquisition of companies or businesses or parts thereof.

2)     Purchases may only be made on NASDAQ Stockholm or through purchase offers
directed to all owners of ordinary shares.

3)     Purchases of shares on each occasion shall be a maximum, after the
purchase, of ten per cent of all shares in the company (including any ordinary
shares acquired by the company pursuant to authorization in accordance with the
proposal for a decision in item 20 B above).

4)     Purchases on NASDAQ Stockholm shall be at a price per share within the
current share price range for ordinary shares, or in the event that the Board
assigns a stock exchange member to accumulate a specific amount of the company’s
shares in their own account for a specific period, at a price per share within a
specified price range for the period or equivalent volume-weighted average share
price, and purchases linked with an acquisition offer shall have as their
maximum price per share the market price at the time of the offer plus at most
twenty per cent.

5)     Payment for ordinary shares shall be in cash.

6)     The appropriate terms in the listing agreement with NASDAQ Stockholm
shall be observed for purchases.

7)     The Board has the right to set other conditions for the acquisition.

B. Decision regarding authorizing the Board to decide on the transfer of the
company’s own shares
The Board proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorizes the Board up to
the time of the next Annual General Meeting, on one or more occasions, with
deviation from shareholders’ preferential rights, to decide on the transfer of
ordinary shares in the company on the following conditions:

1) Transfers shall only be made to use ordinary shares as liquidity for
acquisition of companies or businesses or parts thereof.

2) Transfers on each occasion may be of the total number of ordinary shares
owned by the company.

3) Transfers shall be at a price corresponding to the share’s assessed market
value in connection with transfer.

4) Payment for ordinary shares shall be in capital contributed in kind or
through settlement of a receivable.

5) The Board has the right to set other conditions for transferring shares.

Special majority requirements

For a decision to be valid in accordance with Item 20 B above it is required
that the proposal be voted for by shareholders owning at least two thirds of
both the votes cast and those shares represented at the meeting. For a decision
to be valid in accordance with Item 20 C above it is required that the proposal
be voted for by shareholders owning at least nine tenths of both the votes cast
