The Board’s motions concerning principles for remuneration and other terms of employment for management are as follows: Remuneration should be market-based and competitive, and reflect responsibilities and performance that are in the interest of the shareholders. Fixed salary should be reviewed annually. In addition to fixed salary, remuneration may be paid for target-related performance. Such remuneration shall depend on the extent to which pre-defined targets have been achieved within the framework of the company’s activities. The targets comprise financial as well as non-financial criteria. Any remuneration in addition to the fixed salary shall be subject to a ceiling and related to the fixed salary. Variable remuneration is limited to a maximum of three (3) monthly salaries. In the event of full target achievement, the variable remuneration paid to management may not exceed a total annual cost for the company of SEK 2.7m (excluding social security contributions), based on the current number of senior executives. Any other benefits shall constitute only a limited part of the total remuneration. The company has a profit-sharing fund covering all employees of the company. Allocations to the profit-sharing fund should be based on the achieved return on equity and be subject to a ceiling of one (1) base amount per year per employee. The retirement age is 65. Pension benefits should be equivalent to the ITP supplementary pension plan for salaried employees in industry and commerce, or be contribution-based with a maximum contribution of 35 per cent of pensionable salary. Termination salary and severance pay must not exceed 24 months in total. Item 15 – Authorisation for the Board of Directors to decide on acquisition and transfer of the treasury shares The Board of Directors proposes that the Meeting authorise the Board, for a period ending no later than at the next AGM, to on one or more occasions acquire shares in the compny and transfer the company’s shares to other parties. Share buybacks are subject to a limit of 10 per cent of the total number of shares outstanding at any time. Acquisitions may be effected on the Stockholm Exchange at a price per share that is within the registered span of share prices at the particular time. All of the treasury shares held by the company at the time of the Board of Directors’ decision may be transferred. The shares may be transferred either on the Stockholm Exchange or in another manner, disapplying the shareholders’ preferential rights, at a price per share that is within the registered span of share prices at the particular time. Payment for transferred shares may take the form of cash, cash in kind, the offsetting of debt or otherwise be subject to terms and conditions. The reason for the authorisation is to be able to continuously adjust the company’s capital requirements and thus contribute to increasing shareholder value and, in connection with the financing of any property or company acquisitions, to be able to use treasury shares as means of payment.
