Resolution on the principles for the Nominations Committee (item 15)
Shareholders who, at the time of the announcement of the Notice of the AGM, control a total of 41.3% of the votes in the Company, propose the following principles for the Nomination Committee:

The Chairman of the Board shall, as soon as the registered ownership of the Company as of August 31, 2017 is known, contact the four largest registered shareholders and ask each of them to appoint a member of the Nomination Committee. Shareholders not registered with Euroclear Sweden AB who wish to exercise their right shall report this to the Chairman of the Board and be able to present proof of their ownership. Should one shareholder relinquish the right to appoint a member of the Nominations Committee, the next shareholder in size shall be given the opportunity to appoint a member until four members of the Nomination Committee have been appointed. The members thus appointed, together with the Chairman of the Board as convenor, shall constitute the Nomination Committee. The names of the nominated members, and the names of the shareholders that they represent, shall be published as soon as the Nomination Committee has been appointed, but no later than six months before the AGM in 2018. The Chairman of the Board shall convene the Nomination Committee before the end of October

The Nomination Committee shall appoint one of its members as Chairman. The Nomination Committee’s term of office extends until a new Nomination Committee is appointed.

If any shareholder who is not represented in the Nomination Committee has greater voting powers than another shareholder represented in the Nomination Committee, the larger shareholder has the right to appoint a member of the Nomination Committee, whereupon the member of the Nomination Committee representing the smallest shareholder shall leave the Nomination Committee. Should one of the members of the Nomination Committee resign for any reason or cease to represent the shareholder who appointed such member before the mandate of the Nominations Committee has been completed, and if the shareholder who appointed the member so requests, they may be replaced by a new member appointed by the shareholder.

The Nomination Committee shall propose to the AGM 2018, a Chairman to preside over the AGM, the number of Board Members and Deputies, Board of Directors, Chairman of the Board of Directors, remuneration to the Board of Directors, possible remuneration for committee work, Auditors, remuneration to Auditors and principles for the appointment of the Nomination Committee. The Nomination Committee shall comply with the Swedish Code of Corporate Governance.

Remuneration to the Nomination Committee for its work shall not be paid by the Company. If necessary, the Company will account for reasonable costs that the Nomination Committee considers necessary for the Nomination Committee to fulfil its work. The Nomination Committee may also co-opt Board Members to the Nomination Committee if deemed appropriate; co-opted members shall not have the right to vote in the Nomination Committee.

Resolution to authorise the Board of Directors to issue shares, convertibles or share warrants (item 16)
The Board of Directors proposes that the AGM authorises the Board of Directors, upon one or several occasions during the period up to the next AGM, with or without the waiver of shareholders’ pre-emptive rights, to adopt a new issue of shares or issue of convertible bonds or share warrants. Issues may be made against cash payment, set-off, capital contributed in kind, or otherwise as per conditions pursuant to Chapter 2, section 5, second paragraph, items 1-3 and 5 of the Swedish Companies Act.

The number of shares, convertibles or share warrants that may be issued on the basis of the authorisation shall be limited in such a way that the number of shares, after a fully subscribed new share issue, full exercise of warrants or full conversion, does not increase by more than 10 percent of outstanding shares. If the Board of Directors resolves on a share issue that is carried out with the waiver of the shareholders’ pre-emptive rights, the reason should be to broaden the ownership circle or enable entry for new shareholders for strategic reasons, acquire or enable acquisition of working capital, increase liquidity in the share, carry out acquisitions or acquire or enable acquisition of capital for acquisitions. When a new issue of shares, carried out with the waiver of the shareholders’ pre-emptive rights, is resolved on, the subscription price shall be set according to the market conditions at the time of the decision.

Resolution to authorise the Chief Executive Officer to make adjustments to the resolutions (item 17)a
The Board of Directors proposes that the AGM authorises the Chief Executive Officer, or the person appointed by the Chief Executive Officer, to make minor adjustments and clarifications of the resolutions adopted by the AGM to the extent that such be required for the registration and execution of the resolutions.

Further information
Resolutions under item 16 are valid only if supported by shareholders representing at least two-thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the AGM.

The annual report, Auditor’s report and as well as complete underlying documentation will be made available by the Company and on the Company’s website at least at the time as legally required before the AGM. Documents will be sent on request to shareholders who state their postal address. The Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer shall, should a shareholder so request and the Board of Directors deems that such may take place without significant detriment to the Company, provide information during the AGM with regard to circumstances that could influence the appraisal of an item on the agenda as well as circumstances that could influence the appraisal of the Company’s financial position.
