These sums include compensation for committee work. The proposed total compensation to Board members thus amounts to SEK 1,330,000.

Item 15: The Nomination Committee proposes the re-election of Harald Jagner as the company’s auditor and re-election of Pernilla Lihnell as the company’s deputy auditor, both from Deloitte AB, until the end of the 2017 AGM.

Item 16: The Nomination Committee proposes that a new Nomination Committee be appointed for the 2017 AGM in accordance with the following:

If the AGM approves the Nomination Committee’s proposal with regard to the Chairman of the Board, Christer Villard is proposed for election to the Nomination Committee in his capacity as Chairman of the Board, otherwise the individual elected as Chairman. It is further proposed that Hans Wallenstam be elected to the Nomination Committee in his capacity as principal shareholder, and also Lars-Åke Bokenberger in his capacity as the AMF representative, which is one of the company’s largest shareholders. The above-mentioned persons have declared that they wish to appoint Dick Brenner as a member of the Nomination Committee; accordingly, Dick Brenner is proposed for election as a member and chairman of the Nomination Committee.

Should a member resign prematurely, the remaining members shall if necessary appoint a new member according to this principle, to serve on the Nomination Committee until a new Nomination Committee is appointed.

Finally, the Nomination Committee proposes that the AGM pass a resolution that the Nomination Committee appointed at the 2016 AGM shall be entrusted with the task of preparing proposals for a Nomination Committee ahead of the 2017 AGM.

Item 17: The Board of Directors proposes that the AGM adopt guidelines for remuneration to senior executives in the company, with regard to agreements entered into during the period between the 2016 AGM and the end of the 2017 AGM, as follows:

The guidelines shall include the CEO and other individuals in the company’s management.

Fixed salary
Senior executives shall be offered fixed salaries on market-related terms, which are based on the employee’s area of responsibility and performance.

Pension benefits
Senior executives shall be offered pension benefits on market-related terms chiefly in the form of premium-based pension agreements.

Non-monetary benefits
Senior executives shall be offered customary non-monetary benefits that facilitate the performance of their work. In addition to this, benefits in the form of accommodation, including cost benefits related thereto, may also be offered in individual cases.

Variable remuneration
In addition to fixed salary, variable remuneration may also be offered that rewards predetermined and measurable performance. Such variable remuneration should seek to promote the creation of long-term value within the Group. Furthermore, in connection with the conclusion of a published company business plan and to the extent the Board considers appropriate, the Board will have the right to decide on cash compensation to the Chief Executive Officer and the Deputy Chief Executive Officers as remuneration for extraordinary work performed during the implementation of the business plan.

Variable remuneration shall be paid in the form of salary and may not exceed the fixed remuneration for the employee concerned for the year in question. Payments under the incentive programme below are not pensionable.

Share-based remuneration
Senior executives may be offered incentives in the form of so-called synthetic options if such an offer is directed to all permanently employed personnel in the company.

Period of notice and termination benefits
A reciprocal period of notice of six months applies to senior executives. Termination benefits, including salary during the period of notice, may not exceed 24 monthly salary payments.

The Board retains the right to depart from the guidelines if there are particular reasons for this in individual cases.

Item 18: The Board proposes that the AGM resolve to authorize the Board, on one or more occasions until the next AGM, to take decisions regarding the purchase of as many of its own B shares on Nasdaq Stockholm, such that the company’s holding at any one time does not exceed 10 percent of all shares in the company. Such acquisitions shall take place within the prevailing price range at any given time (i.e. the spread between the highest buying price and lowest selling price).

The purpose of the authorization to acquire the company’s own shares is to provide the Board with the freedom of action to adjust the company’s capital structure and create value for the company’s shareholders.

Item 19: The Board proposes that the AGM resolve to authorize the Board, on one or more occasions up until the date of the next AGM, to take decisions on the assignment of the company’s own shares in accordance with the following:

The Board shall have the right – with or without preferential rights for shareholders – to take decisions regarding the assignment of the company’s own shares by other means than through Nasdaq Stockholm. Assignment may take place against cash payment, for valuable consideration in other assets than cash or by offsetting debt through the company’s assignment of shares in exchange for a claim against the company. The Board’s decision regarding assignment shall be executed within the time period determined by the Board. The assignment may not exceed the number of the company’s own shares held by the company at the time of assignment.

The purpose of the proposed authorization is to:

• promote a more efficient capital structure in the company, which is anticipated to have a positive effect on the price of the company’s shares and thus contribute to creating the largest possible return for the shareholders,
• create flexibility in the company’s ability to distribute capital to the shareholders,
• continually adapt the company’s capital structure to its capital requirements at any given time in order to contribute to increased shareholder value, and
• enable the financing of acquisitions through payment with the company’s own shares.

The number of shares and votes
At the time of issue of this convening notice, the number of shares in the company totalled 340,000,000, distributed among 34,500,000 A shares, which carry ten votes each and 305,500,000 B shares, which carry one vote each. Thus the number of votes in the company totalled 650,500,000. The company’s holdings of repurchased own shares totalled 8,745,000 B shares, which cannot be represented at the AGM.

Provision of documents
The Nomination Committee’s and Board of Directors’ proposals and reasoned statements are available on the company’s website at www.wallenstam.se/arsstamma and at the company’s office at Kungsportsavenyen 2, Gothenburg.

The Annual Report, Audit Report and the Auditor’s Statement pursuant to Chapter 8, Section 54 of the Swedish Companies Act (2005:551) will be available on the company website www.wallenstam.se/arsstamma and at the company’s office at Kungsportsavenyen 2, Gothenburg, as of 4 April 2016 at the latest.

From the date they are available, the above documents will also be sent to shareholders who so request and who provide their address. The documents will also be available at the AGM.

Disclosures at the AGM
The Board of Directors and the CEO shall, if any shareholder so requests and the Board considers that it may occur without material harm to the company, disclose information at the AGM about circumstances that may influence the assessment of an agenda item and circumstances that may affect the assessment of the company’s or subsidiary’s financial situation and also about the company’s relationship with other Group companies.
