PROPOSED DECISIONS

Election of a chairman of the Meeting (item 2)

The Board proposes that Erik Hedlund be appointed chairman of the Meeting.

Disposition of earnings (item 9 b)

Based on the company’s increased profit, the Board proposes that dividend payments be resumed and that the dividend be set at SEK 0.25 per share. The proposed dividend amounts to a total of SEK 8,570,693.25. The remaining accumulated profit, amounting to SEK 99,961,554.74, is proposed to be brought forward and balanced in the new accounts.

The proposed record date for the right to receive dividends is 19 May, 2016. If the Meeting resolves in accordance with this proposal, the divided is expected to be distributed under the direction of Euroclear Sweden AB on 24 May, 2016.

In accordance with the Board’s dividend policy, the company is to distribute approximately 20 percent of the Group’s profit after tax to the shareholders, provided that a healthy capital structure is maintained. However, as the company is currently in a phase of rapid expansion that requires access to capital, the Board proposes that the dividend to be paid is reduced to SEK 0.25 per share for the 2015 fiscal year. This corresponds to approximately 12.2 per cent of the Group’s profit after tax. According to the Board’s evaluation, the proposed dividend will not obstruct the company or the Group from fulfilling its short- and long-term commitments, or affect the company’s or the Group’s capability of making required investments.

With reference to the Board’s proposal on profit allocation, the statement made above as well as other information that has come to the knowledge of the Board and after careful assessment of the financial position of the company and the Group, the Board finds the proposed dividend justified considering the capital requirements of the company and the Group posed by the nature, scope and risks of the business activities and the consolidation requirements, the liquidity and the position of the company and the Group in general.

Guidelines for remuneration to senior executives (item 10)

The Board proposes the Meeting to adopt the following guidelines for remuneration to senior executives to apply for the period until the close of the Annual General Meeting of 2017.

Salary and other remuneration

The CEO shall receive a fixed salary and a variable remuneration.

In addition, the CEO may have other benefits of a common nature, such as a company car.

The CEO’s salary shall be reviewed annually. This shall take place through negotiations between the CEO and the Chairman of the Board, after which the Chairman shall present a proposal to the other Board members. The CEO shall not be present when the Board discusses and resolves on this issue.

The other senior executives are the Deputy CEO, Chief Financial Officer (CFO), Director of Research, Director of Development, Director of Sales and Marketing, Director of Sales for the Asia & Pacific region, Director of Service and the General Counsel.

At the date of this invitation, such maximum increase represents an increase of approximately 2.6 per cent of the total number of votes in the company. Issues made by virtue of this authorization may be made with or without deviation from the shareholders’ pre-emption right in accordance with Chapter 13, Section 1, item 2 c and Chapter 15, Section 1, item 2 c of the Swedish Companies Act, and, other than against payment in cash, with or without terms of issue in kind or set-off or other terms as stated in Chapter 13, Section 5, first paragraph, item 6 and Chapter 15, Section 5, first paragraph, item 4 of the Swedish Companies Act.
