Proposal by the Nomination Committee (agenda items 2 and 7-8)
The Nomination Committee proposes that Chairman of the Board Georg Brunstam be elected chairman of the Meeting. For the period extending until the close of the next Annual General Meeting, the Nomination Committee proposes that the Board of Directors comprise six members and that Kerstin Lindell and Christer Wahlquist be elected as Board members in the company. If the resolution by the Meeting is in accordance with the Nomination Committee’s proposal, the Board of Directors will comprise Georg Brunstam (Chairman), Benny Ernstson, Kerstin Lindell, Henriette Schütze, Christer Wahlquist and Anders Wassberg. Board fees (including remunerations for committee work) per Board member shall continue to apply in accordance with the resolution by the Annual General Meeting of 3 May 2019. For incoming Board members, fees are to be payable pro rata for each member’s actual period of service relative to the entire period from the close of the 2019 Annual General Meeting to the close of the next Annual General Meeting. This entails an increase in the total remuneration by approximately SEK 158,000 since the Board of Directors is being expanded by two additional members. Remuneration for any committee work is additional to this.
