The Meeting re-elected the registered accounting firm KPMG AB as the Company’s auditors until the end of the 2019 Annual General Meeting. KPMG has appointed Authorised Public Accountant Håkan Olsson Reising as Auditor in Charge.

Election Committee The Annual General Meeting resolved in accordance with the motion of this year’s Election Committee to authorise the Chairman of the Board to contact the largest shareholders, in terms of votes, as of 31 December 2018 and request that they appoint four members who, together with the Chairman of the Board, will constitute an Election Committee for the next Annual General Meeting.

Guidelines for determining remuneration and other terms of employment for the President & CEO and other members of senior management The Annual General Meeting resolved to approve the guidelines for determining remuneration and other terms of employment for the President and CEO and other members of senior management in accordance with the Board’s motion.

Repurchase and conveyance of own shares The Annual General Meeting resolved, in accordance with the Board’s motion, to authorise the Board, on one or more occasions during the period until the next Annual General Meeting, to acquire and divest Class B shares in the Company. The purpose of such repurchases is to be able to adapt the Group’s capital structure and to pay for future acquisitions of businesses and operations using treasury shares as well as to secure the Company’s obligations under the share-based incentive programmes adopted at the Annual General Meeting, as specified below.

Acquisitions are to be carried out on Nasdaq Stockholm at a price that is within the registered price range at any given time, meaning the range between the highest purchase price and the lowest selling price. The Company’s total holding of treasury shares may at no time exceed 10 percent of the total number of shares in the Company. The total number of shares in Momentum Group AB amounts to 28,265,416, and the Company currently holds 250,000 Class B treasury shares, corresponding to 0.9 percent of the total number of shares and 0.7 percent of the total number of votes.

The Meeting authorised the Board, in deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights, to divest Class B shares held in treasury in connection with acquisitions of companies or operations, or to secure the conveyance of shares in connection with the Company’s outstanding incentive programmes at any given time, outside Nasdaq Stockholm at a price corresponding to their assessed market value.

At the statutory Board meeting following the Annual General Meeting, the Board resolved to exercise the mandate it had received from the Meeting for the period until the next Annual General Meeting to repurchase Class B shares in the Company.

Issuance of call options for repurchased shares and conveyance of repurchased shares to key individuals in senior positions The Annual General Meeting resolved, in accordance with the Board’s motion, to offer, in deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights, key individuals in senior positions in the Momentum Group the opportunity to acquire call options for repurchased Class B shares. A maximum of 250,000 call options, which entitle their holders to acquire an equivalent number of shares, may be issued, which corresponds to approximately 0.9 percent of the total number of shares in the Company. The options are to be acquired at market value. The redemption price is to correspond to 120 percent of the volume-weighted average price for the Company’s Class B shares on Nasdaq Stockholm during the period starting 23 August 2018 up to and including 5 September 2018. To encourage participation in the programme, a subsidy equivalent to the premium paid (before tax) will be paid for each call option after two years, provided that the option holder has not left the Group and that the call options have not been divested before this date.

The Annual General Meeting also resolved to convey up to 250,000 of the Company’s repurchased shares to the option holders in connection with any exercise of the call options.
