• The number of Board members shall be six. Re-election of Board Members Dag Tigerschiöld, Patrik Tigerschiöld, Mathias Uhlén, Björn Björnsson and Johan Ek and new election of Carl Björkman in accordance with the Nomination Committee’s proposal. Björn Björnsson was elected Chairman of the Board.

• The Board was authorized, up to the time of next Annual General Meeting and disapplying the shareholders’ preferential rights, to decide upon the issue of not more than six and a half million new shares. Payment for such a new issue may take the form of capital contributed in kind.

• The Board was authorized, on one or several occasions prior to the next Annual General Meeting, to acquire Skanditek shares. The authorization pertains to the acquisition of shares so that the Company’s holding of treasury shares never, at any time, exceeds 10 percent of all the shares in the Company. Since Skanditek currently has 65,350,980 shares outstanding, the highest number of shares that may be repurchased at present is 6,535,098. The shares shall be acquired on Nasdaq OMX Stockholm or through offerings directed to all shareholders in the Company. Acquisitions on Nasdaq OMX Stockholm shall be undertaken at a price per share that is within the span of share prices paid at the particular point in time. Payment for the shares shall be made in cash.

The purpose of the authorization is to enable the Board to adjust the Company’s capital structure and, where required, use the treasury shares for lending to the company’s liquidity provider.

At the statutory Board meeting on April 2, 2009, the Board of Directors decided to utilize this authorization.

• Approval of principles for remuneration and other employment terms for executive management.

• Approval of a new incentive program aimed at key personnel in Skanditek involving the issue of not more than 250,000 new warrants.
