The guidelines apply for employment contracts that become effective after the Meeting’s resolution and in the event that changes are made to existing contracts after this date. Performance Share Plan 2014 The Meeting resolved to adopt Performance Share Plan 2014. The program comprises about 180 key individuals who will qualify for allotment, free of charge, of Elekta B -shares following expiry of the three year performance period and provided continued employment during the performance period. The total number of shares that can be allotted depends on the degree of fulfilment of two financial targets, which are independent of each other, for the Group’s (i) earnings before interest, taxes and amortizations (EBITA) with 50 per cent weight and (ii) business volume in local currency (sales and orders) with 50 per cent weight. The performance targets are measured and earned by one-third each financial year during the period from the 2014/2015 financial year to the end of the 2016/2017 financial year. Assuming that that the maximum number of shares is allotted under the Performance Share Plan 2014 and a share price of SEK 95, a maximum of 1,139,600 class B shares will be required to fulfil the commitments under the program (including social security contributions), corresponding to approximately 0.30 per cent of the total number of outstanding shares, and the costs, including social security contributions and the financing cost for repurchased own shares, are estimated at approximately SEK 108,262,000. Acquisition and transfer of own shares The Meeting authorized the Board of Directors, during the period until the next Annual General Meeting to resolve, on one or more occasions, on the acquisition of a maximum number of own shares so that, after the acquisitions, the Company does not hold more than five per cent of the total number of shares in the Company. The Meeting also authorized the Board of Directors, during the period until the next Annual General Meeting to resolve, on one or more occasions, on transfers of own shares in connection with financing takeovers and other strategic investments. The proposal which, in the light of the resolution of Performance Share Plan 2014, comprised transfer of treasury shares to employees and authorisation to the Board of Directors to transfer shares on NASDAQ OMX Stockholm with the purpose of covering primarily social security contributions, did not receive the required majority of nine tenths. In view of the Performance Share Plan 2011, 2012 and 2013, the Meeting authorized the Board of Directors during the period until the next Annual General Meeting, on one or more occasions, to make decisions that not more than 449,200 shares will be transferred on NASDAQ OMX Stockholm with the purpose of covering certain fees, primarily social security contributions. # # # For further information, please contact: Johan Andersson, Director, Investor Relations, Elekta AB Tel: +46 702 100 451, e-mail: johan.andersson@elekta.com Time zone: CET: Central European Time The above information is such that Elekta AB (publ) shall make public in accordance with the Securities Market Act and/or the Financial Instruments Trading Act.
