Nomination Committee’s proposals for extraordinary general meeting

The Nomination Committee and the Opera Board of Directors recommend that the General Meeting approve the amendment to the Company’s articles of association to allow for 3-8 directors on the Board. Now that the Consumer Business has been spun off, the Company is a holding company for business units primarily with their activities outside of Norway, and in the Nomination Committee’s and Board’s opinion a smaller Board will be in the Company’s and the Shareholders’ best interests.

The Nomination Committee of Opera Software ASA ("Opera") hereby presents its proposals for the extraordinary general meeting to be held on 15 December 2016.

First, the Nomination Committee presents two alternative proposals for board election. Should the proposal to amend Opera's articles of association to allow for 3-8 directors be approved, the Nomination Committee proposes three shareholder elected directors. In the event the proposed amendment to the articles of association is not approved, the Nomination Committee proposes five shareholder elected directors. 

Second, the Nomination Committee puts forward proposal for director remuneration.
