Bilia’s Nominating Committee proposes that Gustav Lindner be elected in place of Fredrik Grevelius.

Work experience: HQ Bank Corporate Finance 2006–2010, Swedbank 2010–2014, Account Manager and subsequently CEO of FR & R Sverige.

Current posts: CEO of Investment AB Öresund. Shareholding in Bilia: 1,000 shares.

Gustav Lindner is independent in relation to Bilia and its management, but not independent in relation to Bilia’s major shareholders.
 

The Nominating Committee consists of Öystein Engebretsen (the Qviberg family and Anna Engebretsen), Mikael Norbäck (Investment AB Öresund), Jan Särlvik (Nordea Investment Funds) and Mats Qviberg (Chairman of Bilia AB). Öystein Engebretsen is Chairman of the Nominating Committee.
