HiQ´s Nominating Committee’s work for the 2006 AGM

In accordance with a decision at the 2005 AGM, HiQ’s Chairman has established a Nominating Committee, which consists of Peter Rönström, representing Lannebo fonder, Jan Andersson from Robur fonder, Thomas Ehlin from Nordea fonder and Ken Gerhardsen, a private shareholder as well as Director and co-founder of HiQ. The Nominating Committee decided to also invite HiQ’s Board Chairman Anders Ljungh to sit on the Committee. Peter Rönström has served as the Committee’s chairman. The Nominating Committee has held two meetings and studied the CEO’s presentation and analysis of the company’s development as well as the Board of Directors’ evaluation of its own work. The Committee is of the opinion that the Board represents a broad pool of expertise that is valuable to the company and that it performed its task in a committed and constructive way during the year. In view of this, the Nominating Committee proposes that the Directors Anders Ljungh, Carl Bildt, Ken Gerhardsen, Jukka Norokorpi, Christina Ragsten Pettersson, Leila Swärd and CEO Lars Stugemo be re-elected to the Board with Anders Ljungh as chairman. The Committee is of the opinion that all Directors, with the exception of the CEO, should be regarded as independent. Other proposals made by the Nominating Committee are described in the notification of the AGM due to be released at the end of March. The Annual General Meeting of HiQ International AB will be held on 27 April.
