To the shareholders of Acta Holding ASA
 
 
The nomination committee's proposal to the Annual General Meeting in Acta Holding ASA for new members to the Board of Directors and to the nomination committee  (ref. Item No. 8 and 9 in the Notice)
 
The nomination committee in Acta Holding ASA has consisted of Jan Petter Collier and solicitor Ulf-Einar Staalesen. Solicitor Staalesen has been the chairman of the nomination committee.
 
The most important task for the nomination committee has been to identify candidates to the Board of Directors, irrespective of gender, which are considered to hold the necessary competence and capacity to conduct the relevant Board work. In this regard, the nomination committee has evaluated the competence and qualities which are already represented on the Board of Directors among members who are not up for re-election.  The Board of Directors, as a collegium, holds the responsibility to balance the different interests in order to promote the value creation in the company. The nomination committee has therefore sought to identify candidates to the Board that have both the will and ability to cooperate.
 
The nomination committee has unanimously decided to propose that the following two candidates shall be elected as new members of the Board of Directors in Acta Holding ASA for a period of two years.
 
  1. Harald Sig. Pedersen, 62 years, economist, consultancy, a number of board positions and positions of trust in addition to have held several executive positions, i.a. Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer in Stavanger Aftenblad ASA.
 
  1. Toril Nag, 44 years, up to this day Group Director in Fokus Bank Sør Vest, long experience in the IT-sextor, i.a. General Manager in Lyse Tele, in addition to a number of board positions and positions of trust in larger Norwegian companies.
The nomination committee proposes that Alfred Ydstebø, Ellen Math Henrichsen and Ragnhild Kvålshaugen are re-elected for a period of two years. Stein Aukner is not up for election, and will thus continue as member of the Board of Directors.
 
The composition of the Board of Directors in accordance with the committee's proposal will be:
 
1  Alfred Ydstebø, Chairman of the Board
2  Stein Aukner, Vice chairman of the Board
3  Ellen Math Henrichsen
4  Ragnhild Kvålshaugen
5  Toril Nag
6  Harald Sig. Pedersen
 
The nomination committee shall consist of three members. The committee will therefore propose that Alfred Ydstebø, in the capacity of being the company's largest shareholder, is elected as a new member of the nomination committee for a period of two years. The committee proposes that the current members of the nomination committee are re-elected for a period of two years.
 
The composition of the nomination committee in accordance with the committee's proposal will be:
 
1 Ulf-Einar Staalesen, Chairman
2 Jan Petter Collier
3 Alfred Ydstebø
