Item 7 Consideration of remuneration report for executive personnel for 2022

Under Section 6-16 b of the Public Limited Liability Companies Act, the Board of Gjensidige Forsikring ASA is required to draw up an annual report that provides a complete overview of pay and remuneration disbursed and due to executive personnel covered by the guidelines defined in Section 6-16 a. The report meets the requirements set out in the regulations on guidelines for and reporting of remuneration of executive personnel ('Forskrift om retningslinjer og rapport om godtgjørelse for ledende personer'). The report also meets requirements of notes to the annual accounts pursuant to Sections 7-31b and 7-32 of the Accounting Act.

The object of the report is to ensure transparency in Gjensidige's pay policy and the actual remuneration of executive personnel in Gjensidige, to confirm compliance with the guidelines on remuneration of executive personnel and to help ensure that the remuneration system is in accordance with Gjensidige's results and goals.

The remuneration of executive personnel differs from Gjensidige's general remuneration policy, mainly in that it provides for the opportunity to earn variable remuneration. This is based on the responsibility assigned to executive personnel, and the complexity of the individual role. The remuneration report for executive personnel for 2022 is available at www.gjensidige.no/group/investor-relations/corporate-governance

Proposed resolution:

The General Meeting takes note of the remuneration report for executive personnel for 2022.

Item 8 Consideration of guidelines for stipulating the remuneration of executive personnel

Guidelines for stipulating the remuneration of executive personnel have been drawn up in accordance with Section 6-16 a of the Public Limited Liability Companies Act and the regulations on guidelines for and reporting of remuneration of executive personnel. The Board shall present the guidelines to the General Meeting for decision.

The guidelines make reference to different types of remuneration and describe fixed salary, variable pay, pension and payment in kind for executive personnel. The guidelines are available at www.gjensidige.no/group/investorrelations/corporate-governance

Proposed resolution:

The General Meeting approves the Board's proposal for the guidelines for stipulating the remuneration of executive personnel.

Item 9 Authorisations of the Board

a) to decide the distribution of dividend

The General Meeting can authorise the Board to distribute dividend. Such authorisation requires that the Company has dividend capacity pursuant to the last approved annual accounts.

Authorising the Board to distribute dividend will give the Company flexibility and will mean that the Company, based on its dividend capacity pursuant to the last approved annual accounts, can distribute additional dividends without having to call an extraordinary general meeting. Dividend relating to the operating profit for the financial year shall still be decided by the General Meeting in connection with the approval of the annual accounts for each year.

Within the limits that follow from the authorisation and the Public Limited Liability Companies Act, the Board will decide whether to make use of the authorisation, whether to use it once or several times, the size of the individual dividend payment etc.

Proposed resolution:

The Board is hereby authorised to make decisions about the distribution of dividend on the basis of the Company's annual accounts for 2022, cf. the Public Limited Liability Companies Act Section 8-2(2), in line with the adopted capital strategy and dividend policy.

The authorisation is valid until the general meeting in 2024, no longer, however, than until 30 June 2024.

b) to purchase own shares in the market for the purpose of implementing the Group's share savings programme and remuneration scheme for employees

The Company may only acquire own shares if the General Meeting, by the same majority as is required for amendments to the Articles of Association, has authorised the Board to carry out such acquisitions.

The purpose of the authorisation is to promote a good business culture and loyalty through employees becoming part-owners in the Company. All employees are invited to take part in a share savings programme, whereby those who choose to participate will save up for discounted shares through monthly deductions from salary.

In accordance with the Financial Institutions Regulations, a promise has been made that half of the variable remuneration in 2023 for persons defined in the Regulations will be paid in the form of Gjensidige shares, one-third of which will be allocated in each of the next three years. The shares will be purchased in the market before each year's allocation following publication of the accounts for the fourth quarter.

As a consequence of this, the Board requests the General Meeting's authorisation to buy back up to 1,000,000 own shares, corresponding to 0.2% of the Company's share capital.

Proposed resolution:

The Board is hereby authorised to acquire Gjensidige shares in the market on behalf of the Company, cf. the Public Limited Liability Companies Act Section 9.4. The authorisation can be used to purchase own shares with a total nominal value of up to NOK 2,000,000, corresponding to 1,000,000 shares with a nominal value of NOK 2.

The minimum and maximum amounts that can be paid per share are NOK 20 and NOK 375, respectively. Within these limits, the Board decides at what price and at what times such acquisition shall take place.

The acquisition of shares in accordance with the authorisation can only be used for sale and transfer to employees of the Gjensidige Group as part of the Group's share savings programme or to executive personnel in accordance with the remuneration regulations.

The Board is free to acquire and sell shares in the manner that the Board finds expedient, such, however, that general principles concerning equal treatment of shareholders are adhered to.

The authorisation is valid until 30 June 2024.

c) to purchase own shares in the market for investment purposes or for the purpose of optimising the Company's capital structure

The Company may only acquire own shares if the General Meeting, by the same majority as is required for amendments to the Articles of Association, has authorised the Board to carry out such acquisitions. Such authorisation enables the Board to exploit the mechanisms provided for by the Public Limited Liability Companies Act and can be a means of ensuring an optimal capital structure.

Shares acquired in accordance with the authorisation may, among other things, be used as consideration shares in connection with the acquisition of businesses, mergers and demergers, or for subsequent sale or cancellation.

As a consequence of this, the Board requests the General Meeting's authorisation to buy back up to 50,000,000 own shares, corresponding to 10% of the Company's share capital.

It is a precondition for the purchase of own shares that the Gjensidige Foundation's percentage ownership interest in the Company is not changed as a result of the repurchase.

Proposed resolution:

The Board is hereby authorised to acquire Gjensidige shares in the market on behalf of the Company, cf. the Public Limited Liability Companies Act Section 9.4. The authorisation can be used to purchase own shares with a total nominal value of up to NOK 100,000,000, corresponding to 50,000,000 shares with a nominal value of NOK 2.

The minimum and maximum amounts that can be paid per share are NOK 20 and NOK 375, respectively. Within these limits, the Board decides at what price and at what times such acquisition shall take place.

Shares acquired in accordance with the authorisation may, among other things, be used as consideration shares in connection with the acquisition of businesses, mergers and demergers, or for subsequent sale or cancellation.

The Board is free to acquire and sell shares in the manner that the Board finds expedient, such, however, that general principles concerning equal treatment of shareholders are adhered to.

The authorisation is valid until 30 June 2024.

d) to increase the share capital

The General Meeting may, by the same majority as is required for amendments to the Articles of Association, authorise the Board to increase the share capital through subscription for new shares.

Such authorisation enables the Board to exploit the mechanisms provided for by the Public Limited Liability Companies Act. The purpose can, among other things, be to increase the Company's financial flexibility in connection with the acquisition of businesses, and to ensure an optimal capital structure.

As a consequence of this, the Board requests the General Meeting's authorisation to increase the Company's share capital by a total nominal amount of up to NOK 100,000,000, corresponding to 10% of the Company's share capital.

It is a precondition for the share capital increase that the Gjensidige Foundation's ownership interest in the Company does not fall below the lowest ownership interest stipulated in the Articles of Association.

Proposed resolution:

The Board is hereby authorised to increase the Company's share capital by a total nominal amount of up to NOK 100,000,000, corresponding to 50,000,000 shares with a nominal value of NOK 2, cf. the Public Limited Liability Companies Act Section 10-14. The subscription price and other terms and conditions for subscription are stipulated by the Board. A capital increase within these limits can take place through one or more capital increases, as decided by the Board.

The Board may decide that the shareholders' pre-emption right to the new shares can be waived.

The Board may decide that the share capital contribution can be made in the form of assets other than cash.

The Board is hereby authorised to implement the amendments of the Articles of Association that the share capital increase necessitates.

The authorisation does not apply to decisions on mergers pursuant to Section 13-5 of the Public Limited Liability Companies Act.

New shares are entitled to dividend from the time they are registered in the Register of Business Enterprises.

The authorisation is valid until the general meeting in 2024, but no longer than until 30 June 2024.

e) to raise subordinated loans and other external financing

According to the Company's Articles of Association, the General Meeting may, by the same majority as is required for amendments to the Articles of Association, authorise the Board to make decisions to raise subordinated loan capital and other external financing, and specify more detailed terms in that connection.

The issuing and any buy-back of own securities that form part of the Company's solvency capital are regulated by the Financial Supervisory Authority. Market conditions may mean that the price of the Company's own funds does not adequately reflect the Company's financial situation. In order to be prepared to act quickly within the limits set by the Financial Supervisory Authority, the Board deems it expedient that the authorisation shall also apply to trading in the bonds issued at all times under the Company's subordinated bond issue. The limits set by the authorisation take account of the possibility of refinancing existing loans.

As a consequence of this, the Board requests such authorisation, limited upwards to NOK 3.5 billion.

Proposed resolution:

The Board is hereby authorised to raise subordinated loans and other external financing limited upwards to NOK 3.5 billion, and to trade in the bonds issued at all times under the Company's subordinated bond issue and on the conditions stipulated by the Board.

The authorisation is valid until the general meeting in 2024, no longer, however, than until 30 June 2024.
