The nomination committee proposes that the annual general meeting resolves to adopt adjusted principles for the appointment of a nomination committee in accordance with the following.
Prior to each annual general meeting the nomination committee shall consist of representatives for each of the three largest shareholders in terms of voting rights as of 31 August the preceding year based on the share register kept by Euroclear Sweden AB, whereby a group of shareholders grouped in the Euroclear Sweden system in this context is considered as one shareholder. Should one or several of these three shareholders choose to refrain from appointing a representative to the nomination committee, such right shall transfer to the shareholder(s) who in turn after these three shareholders has the largest shareholding in the company. The chairman of the board of directors shall be a co-opted member of the nomination committee.
The chairman of the board of directors shall convene the first meeting of the nomination committee. The nomination committee shall appoint one of its members as chairman, which shall not be a member of the board of directors.
If one or more of the shareholders that have appointed representatives to the nomination committee no longer are among the three largest shareholders at a time of more than two months prior to the relevant annual general meeting, representatives appointed by these shareholders shall resign and new representatives shall be appointed by the new shareholders who are then among the three largest shareholders. Should a member resign from the nomination committee before the work of the nomination committee is completed, and if considered necessary, the same shareholder who appointed the resigned representative has the right to appoint a new member. However, if this shareholder is no longer one of the three largest shareholders, a new member shall be appointed by the largest shareholder in turn.
Changes to the nomination committee shall be disclosed immediately. The composition of the nomination committee for annual general meetings must be disclosed no later than six months prior to the general meeting.
Remuneration shall not to be paid to the members of the nomination committee. The company shall pay any necessary expenses that the nomination committee may incur in the course of its work.
The term of office for the nomination committee ends when a new nomination committee has been disclosed.
Resolution to authorize the board of directors to issue shares, warrants and/or convertibles (item 16)
The board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting authorizes the board of directors to, up until the next annual general meeting, on one or several occasions, with or without deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights, with cash payment or payment through set-off or in kind, or otherwise with conditions, resolve to issue shares of class A or B, convertibles for shares of class A or B or warrants for shares of class A or B, as well as preferential shares. However, a share issue with deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights may not result in an increase of the number of shares in the company by more than a total of 20 percent calculated on the basis of the number of shares when the board of directors exercises the issuance authorisation for the first time.
If the board of directors resolves on a share issue without preferential rights for the shareholders, the reason shall be to be able to broaden the ownership circle, to acquire or to enable the acquisition of working capital, to increase the liquidity of the share, to carry out company acquisitions or to acquire or to enable the acquisition of capital for company acquisitions. In the event of such deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, the issue must be carried out on market terms and conditions.
The board of directors or the CEO shall be authorized to make such adjustments to this resolution by the annual general meeting that may be necessary in connection with the registration of the authorization at the Swedish Companies Registration office.
Number of shares and votes
There are a total of 28,428,265 shares, of which 2,500,000 are ordinary shares of class A, entitled to ten votes per share at the general meeting, and 25,928,265 are ordinary shares of class B, entitled to one vote per share at the general meeting, in the company as of the date of this notice. Thus, there are a total of 28,428,265 shares and 50,928,265 votes in the company. As of the date of this notice, the company holds no treasury shares.
Specific majority requirements
A valid resolution under item 16 requires the approval of not less than two thirds (2/3) of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the meeting.
Complete proposals etc.
The shareholders are reminded of their right to require information in accordance with Chapter 7 Section 32 of the Swedish Companies Act.
