Guidelines for remuneration to Senior Executives (item 15)

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting adopts the following guidelines for renumeration to the Managing Director, other members of the Group Management and Board Members (aside from remuneration/board fee to the Board Members).

How the guidelines contribute to the company's business strategy, long-term interests and sustainability

In brief, SinterCast provides process control technology, know-how and technical support for the reliable high volume production of Compacted Graphite Iron (CGI). SinterCast promotes CGI within the foundry and end-user communities to increase the overall market opportunity for CGI and to define the forefront of CGI development, production and application. This focus and these efforts will secure global leadership in the field of CGI. The successful implementation of the company's business strategy in this highly specialised technical field, and its sustainable long-term interests, requires that the company can offer market competitive remuneration to recruit and retain employees with the right specialist competence, experience and industry contacts. Current conditions have been taken into account when formulating these guidelines.

Remuneration etc. to the Managing Director and other members of the Group Management

Remuneration, pension and benefits

The remuneration to members of the Group Management shall consist of a balanced combination of fixed salary, variable remuneration, pension and other benefits. The total remuneration shall be in accordance with market practice and shall be based on performance. The fixed remuneration shall be individually determined and shall be based on each individual's responsibility, role, competence and position. Variable remuneration shall be based on predetermined targets on the Group level and the individual level, considering the effect on the long-term result. In extraordinary situations a special compensation may be paid to attract and retain key competence. Variable remuneration and special compensation may not exceed an amount corresponding to 75 percent of the fixed annual salary.

Pension benefits are in the form of defined contribution plans. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Group pays fixed contributions to separate entities. The Group has no legal obligations to pay further contributions if the entities do not hold sufficient assets to pay the employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods. Variable remuneration and special compensation in extraordinary situations shall not constitute a basis for pension as far as this does not conflict with applicable collective agreement. Pension contributions may not exceed an amount corresponding to 30 percent of the fixed annual salary.

Other benefits may include, for example, life insurance, medical insurance and car benefit. Costs for such benefits may not amount to more than 10 percent of the fixed salary.

Termination of employment

Upon termination by the company, the notice period for the Managing Director is nine months, and six months for the other members of the Group Management. Upon termination of the Managing Director by the company the Managing Director is entitled to a severance payment corresponding to nine months compensation. Deduction shall not be made for remuneration paid by another employer. No severance payments have been agreed with the other members of the Group Management.

Consultancy fee to Board Members

In the event that a Board Member (personally or through a wholly-owned company) performs work for the company in addition to the ordinary board work, a special remuneration for this can be paid (consultancy fee). Such remuneration may not exceed, on a yearly basis, the remuneration/board fee paid to the Board Member. The remuneration shall be based on the current market rates and be proportionate to the benefit for the company and to the extent to which such work contributes to the development of SinterCast.

Salary and employment terms for other employees of the company

When preparing the Board of Director's proposed guidelines for remuneration to senior executives, consideration was given to the salary and employment terms of the company's other employees. The Board considered the total remuneration, the components of the remuneration, and the increase and rate of increase of the remuneration over time as part of the basis upon which the Board assessed whether the guidelines and the resulting limitations were reasonable.

Decision-making process for adopting, reviewing and implementing the guidelines

The Board of Directors shall prepare a proposal for new guidelines at least every fourth year and submit it to the General Meeting for decision. The Remuneration Committee established by the Board shall continuously review and assess the guidelines and the implementation of the guidelines. To avoid conflicts of interests, no member of the Group Management shall participate in discussions or decisions which may affect their own remuneration or terms of employment. Further, the Board shall decide on the remuneration (consultancy fees) to any individual Board Member in the absence of the concerned Member.

Description of significant changes in the guidelines and how shareholders' views are taken into account

The proposed guidelines do not entail any significant changes in relation to existing compensation guidelines at SinterCast. SinterCast has not received any direct input from the shareholders.

Deviation from the guidelines

The Board of Directors and, on behalf of the Board of Directors, the Remuneration Committee, shall be entitled to deviate from the above guidelines if, in an individual case, there are specific reasons for this and a deviation is necessary to meet the long-term interests and sustainability of SinterCast or to secure financial viability of SinterCast.

Decisions on a) reduction of the share capital by means of cancellation of repurchased shares and b) increase of the share capital through bonus issue without issuance of new shares (item 16)

SinterCast has on the basis of authorisation by the Annual General Meeting of 2023, acquired own shares. At the time of the notice, SinterCast holds 22,601 own shares, corresponding to approximately 0.3 per cent of the total number of shares in the company. The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting decides upon a reduction of the share capital by cancelling own shares and an increase in the share capital by bonus issue in accordance with items a) and b) below.

16 a) Reduction of share capital by cancellation of own shares

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting decides to reduce the share capital by way of cancellation of own shares. The purpose of the reduction is allocation to unrestricted equity.

The reduction of the share capital shall be made by cancellation of 22,601 own shares that are held by the company. The reduction of the share capital will be SEK 22,601 by way of cancellation of 22,601 shares.

The resolution to reduce the share capital under this item a) may be effectuated without obtaining an authorisation from the Swedish Companies Registration Office or, in disputed cases, a court of general jurisdiction, as the company simultaneously effectuates a bonus issue (as set out under item b) below) with an amount corresponding to the amount the share capital is being reduced with as set out above. Combined, these measures entail that neither the company's restricted equity nor its share capital are reduced.

16 b) Bonus issue

With the purpose of restoring the share capital after the proposed reduction of the share capital, as set out under item a) above, the Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting simultaneously resolves on a bonus issue to increase the company's share capital by SEK 22,601 through a transfer of SEK 22,601 from the company's unrestricted equity. The bonus issue shall be carried out without the issuance of new shares.

Through the reduction of the share capital due to the cancellation of shares, the company's share capital is reduced by SEK 22,601 and through the bonus issue the company's share capital is increased by the same amount. The company's restricted equity and share capital will therefore remain unchanged after the implementation of the bonus issue.

Following completion of the reduction of the share capital and the bonus issue, the number of shares will be 7,067,532.

Authorisation

The Board of Directors further proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorises the Board of Directors, or whom they authorise, to make such minor adjustments to the resolutions according to items 16 a) and b) above as may be required for registration of the resolutions with the Swedish Companies Registration Office or Euroclear Sweden AB and to take such other measures required to execute the resolutions.

Conditions

The decisions under items 16 a) and b) are conditional upon each other.

Decision on authorisation of the Board of Directors to decide upon acquisition and disposal of SinterCast shares (item 17)

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorises the Board to, on one or more occasions prior to the next Annual General Meeting,

• decide upon the acquisition of SinterCast shares. SinterCast may only acquire such number of shares so that the company's shareholding at any given time does not exceed 10 percent of the total shares in the company. Acquisition of shares may be made on Nasdaq Stockholm at a price within the registered price interval on each occasion,
• decide upon disposal of a maximum of all SinterCast shares held by the company at any given time, on Nasdaq Stockholm or in other ways, for example in connection with the acquisition of a company or business, with or without a deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights and with or without payment in kind or payment by set-off. Disposal of shares on Nasdaq Stockholm may only be made at a price within the registered price interval on each occasion. Disposal of shares in other ways may be made at a market price estimated by the Board of Directors.

The purpose of the authorisation is for SinterCast to be able to acquire its own shares at any given time so as to adapt the capital structure of the company and to be able to transfer shares in connection with a potential acquisition of a company or business.
