A representative of the largest owner (or ownership grouping) is appointed chairman of the Nomination Committee. In addition, the members of the Nomination Committee shall have the right to co-opt the Chairman of the Board to the Nomination Committee if desired. Should any of the three major shareholders waive the right to appoint a member of the nomination committee, the right shall instead pass to the next largest shareholder. In the event that the ownership structure changes before the end of the fourth quarter, the composition of the Nomination Committee shall be updated to reflect the new ownership structure, if possible and considered appropriate.

Item 16: Resolution on authorization for the Board of Directors to resolve upon issue of shares

The Board of Directors proposes that authorization be given to the Board of Directors to, during the period until the next Annual General Meeting and on one or more occasions, resolve on a new issue of shares, subscription warrants, or convertible bonds with or without deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights, to be paid in cash, in kind or by right of set-off. The issue may at most increase the share capital by 10 percent or SEK 97,950 (corresponding to 9,795,000 shares).

Such an issue of shares may be carried out with deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights to subscribe for new shares. In the event of deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights, the issue price must be determined on the basis of market conditions.
