Such registration may be temporary (so called voting rights registration) and request for such registration shall be made to the nominee in accordance with the nominee’s routines in such time in advance as determined by the nominee. Voting rights registrations effected no later than the second banking day following 2 June 2021 will be considered in the presentation of the share register.

Item 11 – Resolution on instructions for the Nomination Committee

It is proposed that the Annual General Meeting resolves on principles for the appointment of the Nomination Committee and instructions for the Nomination Committee as described below. These shall apply until a decision on an amendment is made by the Annual General Meeting.

The company shall have a Nomination Committee comprising one representative of each of the three largest shareholders in the company based on shareholder statistics from Euroclear Sweden AB, as of the last banking day in September the year before the Annual General Meeting and other reliable owner information provided to the company at this time. In assessing who constitutes the largest shareholders in terms of the number of votes, a group of shareholders shall be considered an owner if they (i) are grouped as owners in Euroclear Sweden AB's register or (ii) published and notified to the company that they have reached a written agreement to, through a coordinated exercise of voting rights, take a long-term position on the management of the company. The Chairman of the Board is responsible for contacting the largest shareholders and thereby convening the Nomination Committee. The Chairman of the Board shall be co-opted to the Nomination Committee.

If any of the three largest shareholders by number of votes does not exercise the right to appoint a member to the Nomination Committee, the right to appoint a member is passed to the shareholder with the number of votes which is the closest in volume and who is not already entitled to appoint a member of the Nomination Committee.

The Chairman of the Nomination Committee shall, unless the members agree otherwise, be the member who represents the largest shareholder in terms of the number of votes. The  Chairman of the Board or another Board member may however not be the Chairman of the Nomination Committee. Board members may be members of the Nomination Committee, but may not constitute a majority of its members. The CEO or another person from the company executive management must not be a member of the Nomination Committee. At least one of the members of the Nomination Committee must be independent in relation to the largest shareholder in the company in terms of votes or a group of shareholders who collaborate on the company's management.

The name of each member of the Nomination Committee as well as the shareholder they have been appointed by shall be published as soon as the Nomination Committee has been appointed, but no later than six months before the next Annual General Meeting. The Nomination Committee is appointed for a term of office until a new Nomination Committee is appointed.

Shareholders who have appointed a member of the Nomination Committee have the right to replace such a member with another as member of the Nomination Committee. If a member appointed by shareholders resigns from the Nomination Committee during the term of office, or such a member is prevented from fulfilling his or her duties, the Nomination Committee shall urge the shareholder who has appointed the member to appoint a new member within a reasonable time. If the shareholder does not exercise the right to appoint a new member, the right to appoint such a member passes to the shareholder closest to the largest number of votes who has not already appointed or abstained from appointing a member of the Nomination Committee.

In cases during the Nomination Committee's term of office one or more of the shareholders who have appointed members of the Nomination Committee no longer belong to the three largest shareholders in the number of votes, members appointed by these shareholders shall make their seats available and the shareholder or shareholders who have replaced them among the three largest shall have the right to appoint members. Unless there are special reasons, no changes shall be made in the composition of the Nomination Committee if only marginal changes in the number of votes have taken place or if the change occurs later than three months before the Annual General Meeting. Changes in the composition of the Nomination Committee shall be announced as soon as such have taken place.

The Nomination Committee shall carry out its assignment in accordance with these instructions and applicable rules. The assignment includes that the Nomination Committee shall evaluate the composition and work of the Board and work out proposals in the following matters to be submitted to the Annual General Meeting for decision:

  • Chairman of the meeting,
  • Number of board members and auditors,
  • Election of board members and chairman of the board,
  • Fees and other remuneration for board assignments to each of the board members and, where applicable, remuneration for committee work,
  • Election of auditor,
  • Remuneration of auditor, and
  • To the extent deemed necessary, changes in the principles for the appointment of the Nomination Committee and the instructions for the Nomination Committee.

The Nomination Committee's proposal shall be submitted to the company through the Chairman of the Board in good time before the company issues a notice to attend the Annual General Meeting.

At a general meeting other than the Annual General Meeting, the nomination committee's proposal shall include the election or elections that are to take place at the general meeting.

No remuneration is paid to the members of the Nomination Committee. The Nomination Committee, however, has the right to charge the company with reasonable costs for the execution of the assignment.

Item 12 – Resolution on authorization for the Board of Directors to resolve upon new issues of shares, warrants and/or convertible instruments

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves to authorize the Board of Directors, on one or several occasions during the period until the next Annual General Meeting, to resolve upon new issues of shares, warrants and/or convertible instruments, with or without deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights. Payment may, in addition to cash, be made in kind or by set-off, or otherwise subject to conditions.

The reason for any deviation from the preferential right shall be to enable the company to issue shares, warrants and/or convertible instruments as payment in connection with agreements on company acquisitions, or alternatively to raise capital for such acquisitions or otherwise seek external financing. An issue that takes place with a deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights shall be made on market terms.

The Board of Directors, or the person appointed by the Board of Directors, is authorized to make the minor adjustments to the Annual General Meeting’s resolution that may prove necessary in connection with registration with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.
