The following shareholder-elected members of the corporate assembly were elected for a period of two years on the company's annual general meeting in 2015:
Based on input from the nomination committee itself, as well as other relevant stakeholders, the nomination committee proposes that all of the above members are re-elected for a period of 2 years.
Murray Auchincloss was elected as member of the corporate assembly in September 2016. He was recently appointed as deputy director to the board of Aker BP, has therefore resigned from his position as member of the corporate assembly. In replacement of Auchincloss, BP has proposed that Jens Bertelsen is elected a new member to the corporate assembly. The nomination committee supports this proposal. Bertelsen has extensive experience from the oil and gas industry and his competence will be of value to the assembly's work.
Following said appointments, Aker BP's corporate assembly will have the following composition:
| Sverre Skogen | |
|---|---|
| Ole Jakob Hundstad | |
| Anne Grete Eidsvig | |
| Jens Bertelsen | |
| Finn Berg Jacobsen | |
| Leif O. Høegh | |
| Olav Revhaug | |
| Jens Johan Hjort | |
| Kristin Grønn | (employee representative) |
| Ståle Haverstadløkken | (employee representative) |
| Hege Jarstø | (employee representative) |
| Tor Kristian Hals | (employee representative) |
Arild Støren Frick was elected chairman of Aker BP's nomination committee for a period of two years at the annual general meeting in 2015. The nomination committee proposes that he is re-elected as chairman for a period of two years.
Remuneration to the chair and the members of the corporate assembly is proposed to be increased by about 3%, i.e. the chair's remuneration will be NOK 85 000 per year and the other members will get a remuneration of NOK 65 000 per year.
The nomination committee proposes a fixed fee of NOK 35 000 per member for the period from the annual general meeting 2016 to this year's annual general meeting.
