striving to achieve gender balance on the Board. The Company shall therefore
always have a nomination committee comprised of four people. In addition to the
three largest shareholders in terms of votes on the final banking day in

the number of auditors, the auditors, the auditors’ fees, election of a
nomination committee or a decision on principles for appointing a nomination
committee, as well as instructions for the nomination committee and remuneration
for the nomination committee’s members. Further, the nomination committee
proposes that the Company be responsible for reasonable costs associated with
the nomination committee’s assignment and that no remuneration be paid to the
members of the nomination committee.

The Board of Directors has presented the following proposals regarding items 10
and 15:

Item 10: The Board of Directors proposes that the profit of SEK 1,030 050 263 at
the disposal of the AGM be distributed such that a total amount of SEK 63 120
621, equivalent to SEK 3.00 per share, be distributed to the shareholders and
that SEK 966 929 642 be carried forward. The Board of Directors proposes that
May 4, 2015 be the record day. If the AGM resolves in accordance with the
proposal, the dividend is expected to be distributed to the shareholders by
Euroclear Sweden AB on May 7, 2015.

Item 15: The Board of Directors proposes that the AGM decide to adopt the
following guidelines for remuneration for senior management.

Remuneration for senior management

With the aim of being able to ensure the Company can recruit and retain
qualified senior managers, the Board of Directors proposes that the fundamental
principle be that salaries and other terms and conditions of employment shall be
adequate for the Group to constantly attract and retain competent senior
managers at a reasonable cost to the Company. Remuneration within the Group
shall therefore be based on the principles of performance, competitiveness and
fairness.

Salaries and other benefits: Remuneration for senior management shall comprise a
fixed salary in line with market conditions and based on the senior manager’s
responsibilities, expertise and performance. The remuneration shall be confirmed
each calendar year. In addition to a fixed salary, from time to time, a variable
pay forms may occur to be paid in cash. Such remuneration may amount to a
maximum of 60 percent of the annual fixed salary of the CEO, and a maximum of 40
percent of the annual fixed salaries of the senior managers. Bonuses shall
primarily be based on the performance of the whole Bulten Group or the unit that
the person in question is responsible for. The performance shall relate to the
fulfilment of various improvements or attainment of certain financial targets.
Performance objectives will be related to growth, operating profit before
goodwill amortization (EBITA) and parameters related to capital turnover. The
variable remuneration shall not be pensionable or vacationable income.
Furthermore, the senior managers shall be entitled to the customary non-monetary
benefits, such as health and medical insurance, a company car and occupational
healthcare.

Pension: Senior managers domiciled in Sweden may be offered a defined
contribution pension agreement based on premiums which amount to a maximum of 35
percent of the fixed salary on an annual basis, (in addition there are pension
benefits to which senior managers are entitled in accordance with ITP plans).
Senior managers domiciled outside of Sweden or who are domiciled in Sweden but
have a significant link to another country or have been domiciled in another
country may be offered pension solutions that are competitive in the country in
which the persons are or have been domiciled or to which they have a significant
link, primarily defined contribution solutions. Defined benefit pension
solutions shall always be avoided where possible.

Period of notice and severance pay: Senior managers domiciled in Sweden the main
rule for the employee and the employer is a notice period of six months. In some
cases, the notice period is longer at the termination of the company, with a
maximum of 12 months, and some cases the notice period is shorter for
termination by the employee, 4 months. Severance pay, in addition to salary
during the period of notice, shall be paid and, together with the fixed salary
during the period of notice, shall total a maximum of 18 months’ salary.
Personnel domiciled outside of Sweden or who are domiciled in Sweden but have a
significant link to another country or have been domiciled in another country
may be offered periods of notice and severance pay that are competitive in the
country in which the persons are or have been domiciled or to which they have a
significant link, primarily solutions equivalent to those for senior managers
domiciled in Sweden.

Incentive programs: Decisions on share and share-related incentive programs
targeted at senior managers shall be taken by the AGM.

Remuneration of Directors: If elected board members perform work that goes
beyond the Board's work, they should be able to receive a fee for such work.
Compensation should be adjusted to the conditions on the market and must be
approved by the Board.

The Board of Director’s decision-making: The Board of Directors’ remuneration
committee proposes and the Board of Directors decides on salaries and other
terms and conditions for the CEO, the Executive Vice President and the CFO, as
well as other personnel in the corporate management.

Deviation from guidelines: The Board shall be entitled to deviate from the
guidelines if in the individual case there is a special reason for the
deviation. In 2014 there were deviations from the guidelines adopted at the 2014
Annual General Meeting concerning remuneration to senior executives as follows.
In connection with and as a consequence of the sale of the Finnveden Metal
Structures division the former Group President and CEO Johan Westman was
relieved of his position, giving him the right to termination salary and
severance payment. No settlement has been made concerning termination salary. In
addition an exit bonus was paid to Johan Westman. Overall the aforementioned
means that the former President and CEO’s variable remuneration amounted to
132.9% of the fixed salary (including termination salary and severance payment)
which deviates from the guidelines set at the 2014 Annual General Meeting that
stipulated that variable remuneration to the CEO should be a maximum of 60%. A
special reason for this deviation was identified and the reason was the key role
that Johan Westman took in the sales activity and negotiations concerning the
divestment of the Finnveden Metal Structures division and which in the
assessment of the Board was suitable for creating an incentive, safeguarding the
interests of shareholders and enabling the divestment of the division.

Item 17: The Board proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves to
authorize the Board, up to the time of the next Annual General Meeting, on one
or more occasions, to decide on a new issue of shares and/or issue of
subscription options and/or issue of convertibles with or without deviation from
the preferential rights of shareholders. The reason for the proposal and for
deviating from shareholders’ preferential rights and/or the possibility to
decide on the issue with conditions concerning acquisition in kind, offset or
other conditions, is to give the Board flexibility in the work of financing or
enabling an accelerated expansion and development of the Group, its markets and
products, such as the acquisition of companies, operations or assets for which
payment in full or part shall be with newly issued shares and/or enable the
Board to quickly raise capital for such acquisition. The number of shares to be
issued with such authorization or which may arise through utilisation of options
and conversion of convertibles issued with the authorization shall be a maximum
of 1,052,010 shares, which represents a dilution of around 5% of current shares
and votes and the same dilution effect concerning the key indicators for the
shares reported by the company.

Item 18: The Board proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves to
authorize the Board:

(a) during the period up to the next Annual General Meeting, on one or more
occasions, to decide to acquire the company’s own shares on Nasdaq Stockholm
(“the Exchange”) within the framework for a price per share that lies within the
registered share price range at that time, or in the event that the Board
assigns an Exchange member to accumulate a specific amount of the company’s
shares in its own holding for a specific period at a price per share within the
price range at that time or corresponding volume-weighted average share price.
The total amount of acquired shares shall not exceed after the acquisition 10%
of the outstanding shares in the company at that time. The amount that shall be
paid for shares shall in total not exceed MSEK 150 and shall be paid in cash.

(b) during the period up to the next Annual General Meeting, on one or more
occasions, decide on the sale of at most all of the company’s holding of its own
shares on the Exchange and/or in another way with or without deviation from
shareholders’ preferential rights and with or without conditions concerning
acquisition in kind, offsetting of receivables against the company or other
conditions. Transfer of shares on the Exchange shall only be made at a price per
share that is within the registered price range at the time and if transfer is
made otherwise at a price that corresponds to the price in money or value of
received property that corresponds to the share price at the time of transfer
for the shares transferred with deviation considered suitable by the Board. The
possibility for deviation from shareholders’ preferential rights in the transfer
of the company’s own shares and the reason for a transfer price is justified by
the fact that transfer of shares on the Exchange or other manner with deviation
of shareholders’ preferential rights can be done with greater speed, flexibility
and is more cost-effective than transfer to all shareholders. Furthermore the
purpose is to enable that the best possible terms can be secured for the company
while also giving the Board freedom of action in connection with the acquisition
of a company, operations or assets. If the company’s own shares are transferred
for a consideration in other form than money in connection with an agreement to
acquire a company, operations or assets the company cannot give shareholders the
possibility to exercise any form of preferential rights. If utilisation of the
authorization concerning the acquisition or transfer of the company’s own shares
is combined with the utilisation of the authorization concerning the issue of
new shares, with the purpose of allowing the company’s own shares to constitute
in full or part a purchase amount for one and the same acquisition of a company,
operation or asset, the total number of shares transferred or issued in
connection with the individual acquisition shall at most correspond to one tenth
of the total current shares in the company, i.e. a maximum of 2,104,020 shares.

Number of shares and votes

At the time of issuing this notice, the total number of shares and votes in the
Company is 21,040,207. The Company does not own any of its own shares.

Majority Requirement
For a valid decision on the proposals outlined in paragraphs 17 and 18 requires
that each proposal is supported by shareholders representing at least two-thirds
of the votes cast and the shares represented.

AGM documents

The Annual Report and audit report for the 2014 financial year as well as the
