The Board of Directors’ proposal concerning the allocation of the net profits/losses (item 10)
The Board proposes that no dividends be distributed to the shareholders.

The Board of Directors’ proposal concerning guidelines for remuneration to senior executives (item 16)
The Board’s proposal, which includes guidelines concerning salaries, pensions and other terms of employment for senior executives, which is consistent, save any minor deviation, with the existing applicable guidelines, is contained in the statutory administration report in the Company’s Annual Report.

Nomination Committee (item 17)
The nomination committee proposes that, until the general meeting decides otherwise, a nomination committee be appointed of the four biggest identified shareholders according to the share register held by Euroclear Sweden AB as of 30 September, together with the Chairman of the Board. In the assessment of who are the four biggest owners in terms of the number of votes, a group of shareholders shall be considered to constitute an owner if they (i) have been grouped as an owner in the Euroclear Sweden system or (ii) have made it public and notified the Company in writing that they have concluded a written agreement to adopt a long-term, shared approach with regard to the Company’s administration by means of exercising their voting right.

If one or more shareholders do not wish to appoint a member of the nomination committee, the shareholder that is next in line shall be contacted. If the shareholder that is next in line declines to appoint a member of the nomination committee, the Chairman of the Board only needs to contact the eight biggest shareholders in order to achieve a nomination committee with at least five members (including the Chairman of the Board). If, having contacted the eight biggest shareholders, a nomination committee of five members (including the Chairman) is not achieved, the Chairman of the Board shall continue to contact subsequent shareholders in line until a nomination committee of four members (including the Chairman) has been achieved.

Changes in the composition of the nomination committee shall be made public immediately.

The Chairman of the Board shall convene the first meeting of the nomination committee. Unless otherwise agreed by the members, the Chairman of the nomination committee shall be the member who represents the biggest shareholder in terms of the number of votes.

The term of office of the nomination committee shall run until a new nomination committee is appointed.

Resolution to authorise the Board of Directors to make decisions concerning the issuance of shares (item 18)
The Board of Directors proposes that the General Meeting of Shareholders authorises the Board of Directors, on one or more occasions during the period until the next Annual General Meeting, with or without deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights, to make decisions concerning an issuance of new shares corresponding to no more than ten (10) percent of the total number of the Company’s outstanding shares as of the date of publication of this notice and invitation to attend the Annual General Meeting. This authorisations is to include the right to make a decision concerning the issuance of new shares with a provision on an issue in-kind, offset or otherwise with conditions in accordance with the Swedish Companies Act.

The reason for the proposal and the deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights is to allow flexibility in connection with possible further acquisitions or the raising of capital. The basis for the subscription price shall be the market price of the share.

For a valid resolution and approval, a vote in agreement of at least two-thirds of the votes cast as well as those shares represented at the Meeting, is required.

Resolution to authorise the Board of Directors to make decisions concerning acquisitions and transfers of the Company’s own shares (item 19)
The Board of Directors proposes that the General Meeting of Shareholders authorise the Board of Directors to make decisions, on one or more occasions during the period until the next Annual General Meeting, concerning the acquisition of the Company’s own shares (treasury shares) up to where, after the acquisition, the Company does not hold a total of more than five (5) percent of the total outstanding shares of the Company. The repurchases shall be made on the Nasdaq Stockholm exchange at a price within the currently registered share price range (known as the “spread”), i.e. the range between the highest bid price and lowest ask price, and otherwise in compliance with the rules laid down by the stock exchange’s rules. The purpose of the repurchase of its own shares is to adapt the Company’s capital structure to the Company’s capital requirements and, where appropriate, to be able to transfer shares in connection with financing of company acquisitions and other types of strategic investments and acquisitions.

The Board of Directors proposes that the Meeting authorise the Board to make decisions, on one or more occasions during the period until the next Annual General Meeting, concerning the transfer of shares of the Company. The transfer of treasury shares may only be made as part of the purchase price for an acquisition or a merger, and at a maximum with the number of the Company’s own shares that the Company holds at any given time. Payment for the thus transferred shares may be made in-kind or via offsetting of claims against the Company, or otherwise with conditions. The reasons for Board of Directors authorisation to diverge from the shareholders’ preferential rights is to be able to implement, where appropriate, any company acquisitions and other types of strategic investments and acquisitions in a cost-effective manner.

For a valid resolution and approval, a vote in agreement of at least two-thirds of the votes cast as well as those shares represented at the Meeting, is required.
