Item 11. Determination of the Nominating Committee's fees for the 2015 financial year

The Board proposes the following annual fee for the Nomination Committee: Chairman NOK 40 000 Members NOK 35 000

Item 12. Authority to the Board to purchase treasury shares

At the Annual General Meeting held on 13 May 2015, the Board was authorised to purchase treasury shares up until the Annual General Meeting in 2016, although not after 30 June 2016. The Board proposes that this authority be renewed until the Annual General Meeting in 2017, although not after 30 June 2017.

The Board Proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorise the Board to purchase treasury shares within the limitations allowed by the Public Limited Liability Companies Act. The purpose of this authority is to give the Company an opportunity to purchase shares in situations where this would be in the Company's interest.

It is proposed that the Annual General Meeting adopt the following resolution:

The Board is authorised to acquire the Company's own shares, including the establishment of charges created by agreement.

The highest nominal value of the shares the company may acquire is NOK 463,400, although at all times within the limitations set in section 9-2 of the Public Limited Liability Companies Act. The smallest amount that may be paid for a share is NOK 0.05. The highest amount that may be paid for a share is NOK 200.

When buying and selling treasury shares the company should seek to achieve the most favourable price possible. The Board is free with respect of the methods used to acquire and dispose of treasury shares, though always with the provision that the general principle of equal treatment of shareholders must be observed. For the sale of shares to employees and officers, shares may be sold at a discount of up to 20% under the prevailing market price. Acquisition and disposal of treasury shares may thus occur, for example, with settlement in cash, with settlement by means other than cash or as settlement in connection with a merger or demerger.

The company's share capital is NOK 4,634,000 made up of 92,680,000, shares, each with a face value of NOK 0.05 If the share capital or face value of the shares is changed, the amounts specified in the second to fourth sentences shall be changed correspondingly.

This authority to the Board replaces the former authority dated 13 May 2015 and will apply until the date of the Annual General Meeting in 2017, although not after 30 June 2017.

Item 13. Authority to carry out private placing to employees

In the last few years all of AF Gruppen's employees have been given an opportunity to buy shares at a 20% discount in relation to the average share price during the subscription period. It is desirable that similar opportunities are provided in 2016.

As of today's date, the Company owns 4,450 treasury shares. In order to obtain a sufficient number of shares to enable this sale of shares to employees, it may be necessary to issue new shares. Therefore, the Board asks the Annual General Meeting to authorise it to issue a limited number of shares for employees so that employees may buy shares in the Company in 2016.

The Board proposes that the Annual General Meeting adopt the following resolution, cf. the Public Limited Companies Act, Sections 10-14 to 10-19:

The Board is authorised to increase the share capital by issuing new shares.

The share capital may be increased by a total of up to NOK 50,000 through the issuing of up to 1,000,000 shares, each with a face value of NOK 0.05. The authority can be exercised through one or more issues.

The statement of the share capital and number of shares in Article 4 of the Articles of Association shall be changed correspondingly.

The power of attorney may only be used to issue shares in connection with the sale of shares to employees in the Group.

The Board may decide to deviate from the shareholders' pre-emptive right to subscribe for shares under section 10-4 of the Public Limited Companies Act.

The authorisation is valid until the date of the Annual General Meeting in 2017, but not later than 30 June 2017.

Item 14. Authorisation for the Board to increase the share capital by issuing new shares

The Board proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorises the Board to increase the share capital by up to NOK 139,020 (3% of the presently registered paid-in share capital) by issuing new shares. This authorisation is valid until the 2017 Annual General Meeting, but not later than 30 June 2017.

The justification for the proposal is that the authorisation will provide greater flexibility in connection with acquisition of business.

The Board proposes that the following is adopted, cf. sections 10-14 to 10-19 of the Public Limited Companies Act:

The Board is authorised to increase the share capital by issuing new shares. The share capital may be increased by up to NOK 139,020.

The authority can be exercised through one or more issues. The statement of the share capital and number of shares in Article 4 of the Articles of Association shall be changed correspondingly.

The Board may decide to deviate from the shareholders' pre-emptive right to subscribe for shares under section 10-2 of the Public Limited Companies Act.

The Board may decide that share contributions may be assets other than cash, or the right to involve the company in special obligations pursuant to section 10-2 of the Public Limited Companies Act. If share contributions are to be settled by assets other than cash, the Board may decide that such assets be transferred to subsidiaries in return for corresponding settlement between the subsidiary and AF Gruppen ASA.

The authorisation also applies in the event of a decision to merge, pursuant to section 135 of the Public Limited Companies Act. The authorisation may also be used in those cases discussed in section 5-15 of the Stock Exchange Act.

This authority is valid from and including 13 May 2016 until and including the date of the Annual General Meeting in 2017, although not after 30 June 2017."

Item 15. Authorisation for the Board to decide on distribution of dividends.

AF Gruppen's dividend policy is to provide shareholders with a competitive dividend yield. The Board will recommend to the General Meeting that the payment of dividends takes place up to twice yearly, preferably after the Annual General meeting and after presentation of the quarterly report for Q3. The dividend must be stable and ideally rise in line with the earnings performance. The dividend must reflect the company's earnings and financial position and must over time comprise a minimum of 50% of the company's earnings.

The Board proposes that the General Meeting adopts the following resolution:

In accordance with Section 8-2 (2) of the Public Limited Liability Companies Act, the Board is granted authorisation to decide on the distribution of dividends on the basis of the company's annual accounts for 2015.

This authorisation is valid until the 2017 Annual General Meeting, but not later than 30 June 2017.

Item 16. Authorisation for the Board to increase the share capital for redemption of options in 2017

A new option programme for all employees of AF Gruppen and subsidiaries was adopted at the Annual General Meeting held on 15 May 2014, which entails entitlement to subscribing for a total of 4,500,000 options during the years 2014, 2015 and 2016 with redemption in 2017.

During the years 2014 and 2015 a total of 3,759,599 options have been subscribed for that can be redeemed from this scheme in March 2017. In addition to this come subscriptions in 2016 and deductions for options that have been subscribed for by employees who leave before redemption.

In order to avoid having to call an extraordinary general meeting in connection with a matter that the general meeting has already undertaken to perform, the board proposes that the annual general meeting adopts the following resolution;

The Board is authorised to increase the share capital by issuing new shares.

The share capital may be increased by up to NOK 225,000, divided into a maximum of 4,500,000 shares, each with a face value of NOK 0.05. The authority can be exercised through one or more issues.

The statement of the share capital and number of shares in Article 4 of the Articles of Association shall be changed correspondingly.

The authority may only be used to issue shares to employees of the group by the redemption of options.

The Board may decide to deviate from the shareholders' pre-emptive right to subscribe for shares under section 10-4 of the Public Limited Companies Act.

This authorisation is valid until the 2017 Annual General Meeting, but not later than 30 June 2017.

Board of Directors' statement on the determination of fixed pay and other remuneration to senior executives

The Board of Directors has prepared the following statement on the determination of fixed pay and other remuneration to senior executives pursuant to Section 6-16a of the Public Limited Liability Companies Act.

Senior executives are defined as the Corporate Management Team, which consists of the CEO and executive vice presidents.

1. Determination of fixed pay and other remuneration for senior employees

Main principles

o The salaries of senior executives are made up of a fixed component, the base salary, and a variable component in the form of a bonus.

The sum total of the base salary and bonus constitutes the total remuneration the employees receive for their services.

• o The scope of the variable component of the remuneration depends on to what degree the defined economic targets are achieved.
• o The total remuneration that is offered shall be competitive in relation to comparable positions and the market.
• o The Compensation Committee is the Board of Directors' advisor for the evaluation of the terms for senior executives.

Determination of the CEO's remuneration

The Board of Directors determines the CEO's remuneration in consultation with the Compensation Committee. The CEO has otherwise the same employment terms and notice period as other employees. There are no agreements relating to severance pay or early retirement.

Determination of the remuneration of executive vice presidents

The Board of Directors establishes guidelines for the remuneration of senior executives in consultation with the CEO.

There are no agreements relating to severance pay or early retirement.

Bonus

Bonuses for senior executives are based on the EVA (Economic Value Added) model. EVA is a method of calculating and analysing value creation in the Group and in economic units below group level. Bonuses based on the EVA model for senior executives are linked to the Group's value creation and the individual business area through the financial year.

Of the total bonus earned, 25% can be used to buy shares at a 20% discount and the remainder is paid in cash. The lock-in period for the shares is one year.

Purchase of treasury shares

Shares can be sold to senior executives, subject to the approval of the Board of Directors at a 20 % discount on the prevailing market price. Shares are offered to senior executives in the same way as to other employees.

Options

At the AGM on 15 May 2014 it was decided to establish a new option scheme for all employees of AF Gruppen. The maximum number of options that can be granted is 4,500,000. Each option entitles the holder to acquire a share in AF Gruppen ASA. The option scheme entails an annual allotment of options for 2014, 2015 and 2016, with the allotting starting in 2014. The Board has been authorised to distribute the options between the different employee groups.

The employee must pay NOK 1.- per option to acquire options. The exercise price is determined as the share's market value at the time of issue.

Exercise of options shall occur in the course of the first quarter of 2017 as decided by the Board. It is a condition of exercising options that the holder is still employed by the group on 01 March 2017.

Retirement benefit scheme and payments in kind

Senior executives participate in the Group's retirement benefit scheme and receive payments in kind in the form of allowances for work travel, data connections and mobile telephones on par with that of other employees.

2. Compensation policy in force in 2015

Determination of the CEO's remuneration

The terms for the CEO were set by the Board of Directors. The remuneration paid in 2015 was in accordance with the agreements entered into, and a bonus was paid for the 2014 financial year in addition to the salaries for 2015.

Determination of the remuneration of executive vice presidents

The terms for the executive vice presidents were set by the CEO in consultation with the Board of Directors. The remuneration paid in 2015 was in accordance with the agreements entered into. A bonus was paid for the 2014 financial year.

Executive vice presidents' bonuses are paid on the basis of the EVA achieved in the Group.

• 3. Effect of changes to the compensation schemes agreed on in 2015 There have been no changes in the compensation schemes in 2015, which differ from 2014.
• 4. Guidelines for the determination of fixed pay and other remuneration for 2016 The determination of fixed pay will follow the same principles in 2016 as in 2015.

For further information, please refer to notes 7 and 29 in the annual report.

Enclosure 4

Recommendations of the Nominating Committee to the Annual General Meeting of AF Gruppen ASA, 12/05/2016

1. The Nominating Committee's work

The Nominating Committee has met with the board members and the CEO in order to evaluate the Board's work on behalf all the Company's shareholders. In addition, there has been a written evaluation of the Board, which forms the basis for discussions with the Board members.

Tore Thorstensen has been the Chairman of the Board of AF Gruppen ASA since the Annual General Meeting in 2010. Before that, he had been elected as a board member for several periods. He has advised the Nominating Committee that he does not wish to seek re-election at this year's Annual General Meeting. In the Nominating Committee's own evaluation, there are two further circumstances that bring a need for a change: (1) The Norwegian civil engineering market is changing and new customers will ask for contracts with a greater scope, which may compel new forms of contract collaboration. In order to meet this challenge, it will be desirable to increase civil engineering competence on the Board. (2) Certain board members have had a long period of service and it is important to balance renewal and continuity in the composition of the Board. Against this background, the conclusion is that a change should be made to the composition of the Board at the Annual General Meeting.

Several meetings have been held in the Nominating Committee to discuss candidates suitable for board positions in the company. Based on the discussions, the Nominating Committee has arrived at a candidate who is put forward for election at the 2016 Annual General Meeting.

At the Annual General Meeting in 2009 the Articles of Association were amended so that up to two alternate members with the right to attend board meetings could be elected. The Nominating Committee recommends that this arrangement be maintained, and that a permanently attending alternate is elected at this year's Annual General Meeting.

2. Election of Board members and the Board Chairman

Shareholder-elected Board members are up for election every year. The Nominating Committee submits the following proposal to the General Meeting:

The following individuals should be elected as Board members for one year: Bømark, Hege (re-election) Holth, Kristian (new board member, previous alternate) Lunde, Borghild (re-election) Rønn, Pål Egil (new) Siraj, Daniel Kjørberg (re-election)

Alternate representatives:

Groth, Peter (new alternate, previous board member)

The Nominating Committee proposes that the General Meeting elects Pål Egil Rønn as the Board Chairman.

In its proposal for the new Board Chairman, the Nominating Committee has taken the company's principles for corporate governance as a basis. The proposal requires that the Nominating Committee has analysed and worked on questions and risk elements that may be presented from the market, owners, the board, the CEO, management and employees. The conclusion from this work is that the recommendation from the Nominating Committee is within the company's adopted principles for corporate governance and is in the company's best interests.

The Nominating Committee recommends to the Board that in connection with the constitution a deputy chair of the Board is elected.

3. Remuneration for the Board and Nominating Committee for the election period until the Annual General Meeting for the 2015 financial year

The Nominating Committee submits the following remuneration proposal for approval:

Chairman	:		NOK 430,000
Board members; shareholder-elected employee-elected	: :		NOK 215,000 NOK 190,000
Alternate(s)	:		(per meeting) NOK 21,000

Compensation Committee		:	NOK 40,000
Audit Committee		:	NOK 57,000
