However, with the limitation that the Company’s holding of such shares in the trading book must never exceed one per cent of the total number of shares in the Company. The price for the ordinary shares shall equal the market price prevailing at the time of the acquisition.

17.     Guidelines for remuneration to the executive officers

The board of directors’ proposal: Nordea shall maintain remuneration levels and other employment conditions needed to recruit and retain executive officers with competence and capacity to deliver according to Nordea’s short and long term targets. Remuneration of executive officers will be decided by the Board of Directors in accordance with Nordea’s internal policies and procedures, which are based on the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority’s (SFSA) regulations on remuneration systems, EU’s directive on capital requirements for banks as well as international sound compensation practices. Salaries and other remuneration in line with market levels is the overriding principle for compensation to executive officers. Compensation to the executive officers shall be consistent with and promote sound and effective risk management and not encourage excessive risk-taking or counteract Nordea’s long term interests. Annual remuneration consists of a fixed salary part and a variable salary part. Fixed salary is paid for satisfactory performance. Variable salary part is offered to reward performance meeting agreed predetermined targets on Group, business unit and individual level. The effect on the long term result is to be considered when determining the targets. The variable salary part shall as a general rule not exceed 35 per cent of fixed salary. In accordance with international principles guaranteed variable salary part is to be exceptional and may only occur in the context of hiring a new executive officer and then be limited to the first year. The variable salary part shall be paid in the form of cash and shares/share-price related payment and be subject to retention, deferral and forfeiture clauses based on the SFSA’s regulations on remuneration systems, taking account of domestic rules and practices where relevant. A Long Term Incentive Programme is proposed. The programme, which is share and performance-based, has performance measuring over three years, a cap and requires initial investment by the participants. According to the programme the remuneration is proposed to be given in the form of matching and performance shares free of charge. Compared to last year’s programme the performance conditions are proposed to be based on risk-adjusted return on capital at risk and the ratio tangible price to book. The executive officers will be invited to join the Long Term Incentive Programme and due to their influence on the long term development of Nordea, the conditions for participation and outcome differ compared to other participants. If the AGM does not approve a Long Term Incentive Programme, the variable salary part to executive officers may be increased and shall as a general rule not exceed 50 per cent of fixed salary. Non-monetary benefits are given as a means to facilitate executive officers’ performance and are determined by what is considered fair in relation to general market practice. The executive officers shall be offered retirement benefits in accordance with market practice in the country of which they are permanent residents. Notice and severance pay in total shall not exceed 24 months of fixed salary.

Any potential undertaking or commitment made by Nordea against a state or public authority in any guarantee agreement or any similar agreement which affect the remuneration of executive officers will be observed.

The above guidelines shall include the CEO and the executives reporting directly to him also being members of Group Executive Management. The Board of Directors may deviate from the guidelines stated above, if there in a certain case are special reasons for this.

18.     Long Term Incentive Programme

a)       Long Term Incentive Programme

Long Term Incentive Programme 2012
The Board’s main objective with the proposal of a Long Term Incentive Programme 2012 (“LTIP 2012”) is, as was the case with the five previous programmes implemented in 2007-2011, to strengthen Nordea’s capability to retain and recruit the best talents for key leadership positions. The aim is further to stimulate the managers and key employees whose efforts have direct impact on Nordea’s result, profitability and long-term value growth, to increased efforts by aligning their interests and perspectives with those of the shareholders.

In order to participate in LTIP 2012 the employees have to hold Nordea shares. The shares could be previously held or purchased in the market before entering into the LTIP 2012 agreement (“Saving Shares”). For each Saving Share, Nordea shall, free of charge, allot a certain number of matching shares and performance shares (performance share I and performance share II) based on certain conditions. Allotment will take place after the period commencing on the 25 April 2012 and ending in conjunction with the release of the interim report for January-March 2015 (“Vesting Period”). For Nordea Group Executive Management (“GEM”) and certain other employees within the group of employees defined as identified staff a deferral period of 3-5 years is required by applicable laws and regulations and parts of the allotment under LTIP 2012 may thus be postponed accordingly (the “Deferral Period”). The number of Saving Shares held within LTIP 2012 by each participant may not exceed a number equivalent to 10 per cent of the participant’s base salary (for GEM the number is 15 per cent) by yearend 2011 divided by the average share price of the Nordea share during December 2011.

Terms and conditions
Allotment of matching shares, performance shares I and performance shares II is governed by the following terms and conditions:

  • the participant must, with certain exemptions, remain employed within the Nordea Group during the entire Vesting Period and all Saving Shares must be retained during this period,
  • the participant has no right to pledge, dispose or transfer the entitlement to allotment of Nordea shares or execute any shareholders’ rights during the Vesting Period including, if applicable, the Deferral Period,
  • the fulfilment of the performance conditions set out below to be entitled to allotment of performance shares I and II,
  • allotment will take place free of charge after the Vesting Period, however, no later than 14 calendar days after the publication of Nordea’s interim report for January-March 2015 and, if applicable, pro-rata during the Deferral Period,
  • dividends paid on the underlying Nordea share will increase the number of shares that each participant may be allotted after the Vesting Period and, if applicable, pro-rata during the Deferral Period,
  • the participant’s maximum profit of the LTIP 2012 will be calculated at the end of the Vesting Period and shall not exceed the participant’s annual base salary by yearend 2011,
  • prohibition to enter into personal hedging and insurance arrangements for certain financial effects during the Vesting Period and, if applicable, the Deferral Period, and
  • retention period of up to twelve months on allotments under LTIP 2012 for certain identified staff as required by applicable laws and regulations.

The Board shall be responsible for preparing and deciding on the detailed terms and conditions for the LTIP 2012 in accordance with this proposal. To this end, the Board shall be entitled to make adjustments to the terms and conditions of LTIP 2012 to meet legal requirements. The Board may also make other adjustments if significant changes in the Nordea Group, or its operating environment, would result in a situation where the decided terms and conditions for the LTIP 2012 would become unsuitable. Any adjustments to the LTIP 2012 must however be within the limits of maximum number of shares and the calculated costs for the LTIP 2012. The Board may also reduce the number of shares to be allotted (including reducing to nil) if the allotment would be deemed unjustified given the performance of the Nordea Group, relevant business unit if applicable or the participant (forfeiture).

The Board shall also be entitled to recalculate RAROCAR due to a) new external regulations and requirements, including capital requirements in addition to what are so far announced b) deviations compared to forecasted effects from roll-out of already known regulatory approvals and c) model changes. The outcome of the recalculation has to be confirmed by Nordea’s external auditor.

The Board may delegate the power to prepare, decide on, amend or adjust the LTIP 2012 in accordance with the above to the Board Remuneration Committee.

Performance conditions
The entitlement to allotment of performance shares I and performance shares II is, in addition to the conditions mentioned above, subject to the fulfilment of certain performance conditions. These performance conditions relate to Nordea’s average risk-adjusted return on capital at risk (“RAROCAR”) and the ratio Price to tangible Book (“P/B”) compared to the correspondent P/B for currently 19 Nordic and European banks constituting Nordea’s peers as defined by the Board.  

Allotment and allocation
Each Saving Share entitles the participant to allotment of one matching share, a maximum of two performance shares I and a maximum of one performance share II. However, for identified staff, having to respect a Deferral Period and retention period as required by applicable laws and regulations, each Saving Share entitles the participant to allotment of one matching share, a maximum of three performance shares I and a maximum of one performance shares II.

In total, LTIP 2012 comprises a maximum of 9,360,000 Nordea shares, of which 1,800,000 consist of matching shares and 6,000,000 consist of performance shares I and performance shares II. The additional 1,560,000 shares relate to such shares that may be conveyed by Nordea in order to cover certain costs, mainly social security costs. The maximum number of ordinary shares comprised by LTIP 2012 amounts to approximately 0.23 per cent of the total number of outstanding ordinary shares.

The Board’s proposal: Referring to the above-mentioned description, the Board proposes that the annual general meeting adopts LTIP 2012.

Majority Requirement
The decision by the annual general meeting regarding LTIP 2012 is valid where supported by shareholders holding more than half of the votes cast at the annual general meeting.

b)       Conveyance of shares under the Long Term Incentive Programme

Background
The Board intends to hedge the financial exposure of LTIP 2012 by way of a combination of reallocation from the hedge of LTIP 2007-2009 to LTIP 2012, since these shares no longer are required to secure Nordea’s obligations under LTIP 2007-2009, and a new issue of redeemable and convertible C-shares. The Board regards the alternative including a reallocation to LTIP 2012 from LTIP 2007-2009 and an issue of redeemable and convertible C-shares as the most cost-efficient and flexible arrangement for hedging the transfer of shares and covering certain costs, mainly social security costs, for LTIP 2012.

The Board’s proposal: With reference to the above, the Board proposes that the annual general meeting resolves on (i) issue of C-shares, (ii) acquisition of C-shares, (iii) reallocation of 6,680,832 shares from the hedge of LTIP 2007-2009 to LTIP 2012 and (iv) conveyance of shares under LTIPs 2008-2012 in accordance with the principal terms and conditions set out below.

1.       Directed Cash Issue

Increase of Nordea’s share capital by maximum EUR 2,679,168 through an issue of 2,679,168 C-shares.

The issue will be effected on the following terms.

a)             The new shares shall – with deviation from the shareholders’ preferential right to subscribe for shares – be subscribed for only by a third party designated by Nordea.

b)            The new shares shall be issued at a price corresponding to the quotient value of the shares at the time of the subscription of the shares.

c)             The new shares shall be subscribed for during the period 27 April – 25 May 2012, with a right for the Board to extend the subscription period. Oversubscription is not permitted.

d)            Payment for shares subscribed for shall be effected at subscription of the shares.

e)             The new shares do not entitle to any dividend.

f)             The new shares will be subject to restrictions as set forth in Chapter 4, Section 6 (conversion provision) and Chapter 20, Section 31 (redemption provision) in the Swedish Companies Act (SFS 2005:551).

2.       Authorisation for the Board to decide on a directed offer to acquire own shares

Authorisation for the Board to decide on acquisition of C-shares in Nordea on the following terms.

a)             Acquisition may be made through a public offer directed to all owners of C-shares in Nordea.

b)            The authorisation is valid and may be exercised until the annual general meeting 2013.

c)             The number of C-shares permitted to be acquired shall amount to 2,679,168.

d)            Acquisition of shares shall be made at a lowest price per share of 100 per cent and a highest price of 105 per cent of the quotient value, applicable at the time of the subscription of shares according to section 1 b) above.

e)             Payment for shares acquired shall be made in cash.

f)             The Board shall be authorised to establish additional terms for the acquisition.

g)             Acquisition shall also include a so called interim share, designated by Euroclear Sweden AB as a ”paid subscription share” (Sw. “BTA”) relating to a C-share.

3. Reallocation of shares

Reallocation of 856,549 ordinary shares from LTIP 2007, 1,000,897 ordinary shares from LTIP 2008 and 4,823,386 ordinary shares from LTIP 2009 to LTIP 2012.

4. Conveyance of own shares acquired

The Board intends, in accordance with provisions in the articles of association, to decide on conversion of all C-shares to ordinary shares.

Resolutions on conveyance of the Company’s own shares may be made on the following terms.

a)             Conveyance may be made only of ordinary shares in Nordea and a maximum of 7,800,000 shares may be conveyed to participants in LTIP 2012.

b)            Conveyance of shares shall be made without consideration at the time and on such additional terms and conditions that participants in LTIP 2012 are entitled to receive allotment of shares.

c)             Nordea shall have the right to, prior to the annual general meeting of Shareholders 2013, in order to cover certain costs, mainly social security costs:

  • convey a maximum of 125,000 ordinary shares of the ordinary shares hedging Nordea’s obligations under LTIP 2008;
  • convey a maximum of 125,000 ordinary shares of the ordinary shares hedging Nordea’s obligations under LTIP 2009;
  • convey a maximum of 1,025,000 ordinary shares of the ordinary shares hedging Nordea’s obligations under LTIP 2010;
  • convey a maximum of 1,050,000 ordinary shares of the ordinary shares, hedging Nordea’s obligations under LTIP 2011; and
  • convey a maximum of 1,560,000 ordinary shares of the 9,360,000 ordinary shares, which, after conversion from C-shares and reallocation of 6,680,832 shares from the hedges of LTIP 2007-2009 to LTIP 2012, are proposed to hedge Nordea’s obligation under LTIP 2012.

Conveyance of the shares under this section 4 c) shall be effected at NASDAQ OMX Stockholm at a price within the price interval prevailing at each time for the share.

______________________

The reasons for the deviation from shareholders’ preferential rights are the following. The issue of shares, the acquisition and the conveyance of own shares are integrated parts of the previously resolved LTIPs 2008-2011 and the now proposed LTIP 2012. Therefore, and in light of the above, the Board considers it to be to an advantage for Nordea and the shareholders that the participants in LTIP 2012 are offered to become shareholders in Nordea. For the purpose of minimising Nordea’s costs for LTIP 2012, the subscription price has been fixed at a price equivalent to the quotient value of the share.

______________________

Majority Requirement
The Board’s proposal under item 18 b) sections 1-4 above, shall be viewed as one decision, and the decision by the annual general meeting is valid where supported by shareholders holding no less than 90 per cent of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the annual general meeting. The Board’s proposal pursuant to this item 18 b) is subject to that the Board’s proposal regarding the Long Term Incentive Programme has been approved by the annual general meeting ((item 18 a) above).
