The current board has five shareholder-elected directors. The Board of Directors consists today of Tae Won Jun (Chairman) (elected 21 October 2022), Dong Kwan Kim (deputy Chair) (elected 21 October 2022), and independent directors Renate Oberhoffer-Fritz (elected 2 May 2022), Vivian Bertseka (elected 21 October 2022), and Roberta Benedetti (elected 22 December 2022).
All Board members were elected for a period of one year until the annual general meeting in 2024.
The Nomination Committee proposes re-election of Tae Won Jun as Board Director in the position as the Chairman of the Board and re-election of Renate Oberhoffer-Fritz and Vivian Bertseka as Board Directors for a period of 1 year until the annual general meeting 2025. Furthermore, the Nomination Committee proposes Jooyong Chung for election as a new Board Director and Deputy Chair. Finally, the Nomination Committee proposes Robert Neuhauser as a new Board Director in place for Roberta Benedetti.
While finding the present Board well-functioning, the Nomination Committee, considering the direction of the company and based on relevant consultations with and input from stakeholders, and in consultation with the Chairman of the Board, proposes Robert Neuhauser as a new Director. It is the opinion of the Nomination Committee that Robert Neuhauser has the qualifications, expertise and experience that, in the Committee's view, will significantly contribute to the current Board and the company, in, among other things, the areas of R&D, leadership and HR, which are aligned with the company's objectives.
Furthermore, the Nomination Committee believes Jooyong Chung has the qualifications, expertise and experience not only for a seamless transition from the current Deputy Chair, Dong Kwan Kim, but also to contribute to the company's goal for business growth with her expertise in the area of M&A.
Both Jooyong Chung and Robert Neuhauser are independent both of major shareholders and of the company's executive personnel and material business contacts within the meaning of the Norwegian Code of Practice for corporate governance (NUES).
The Board will satisfy the statutory requirements for residency and representation of both genders in Sections 6-11 and 6-11a in the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act.
All the nominated candidates have accepted to serve as Directors of the Board.
Based on the considerations above, the Nomination Committee proposes that the general meeting makes a joint vote over the full board consisting as follows:
