The Board of Directors has the ambition to propose distribution of dividend at the next AGM. The Board of Directors therefore proposes that the profits at the disposal of the AGM shall be carried forward.

Item 14 Resolution on instruction for the Nomination Committee

The Nomination Committee proposes that the AGM decides on the following instruction for the Nomination Committee.

The Company shall have a Nomination Committee consisting of members appointed by the four largest shareholders together with the Chairman of the Board. The largest shareholders will be contacted by the company's Chairman of the Board on the basis of the company's list of registered shareholders as of the last banking day in August, provided by Euroclear Sweden AB.

After the owners have been contacted, they should within 14 days notify whether they wish to participate in the Nomination Committee. If any of the four largest shareholders waives their right to appoint a member of the Nomination Committee, the next shareholder in the ownership size will be given an opportunity to appoint a member and shall, within one week, submit a notice of participation. The names of the four representatives and the names of the shareholders who proposed them shall be published as soon as the Nomination Committee has been appointed, but no later than six months before the AGM. If at this time, no four owners have notified the wish to participate in the Nomination Committee, the Nomination Committee will then consist of fewer members.

The Nomination Committee's term of office runs until its new Nomination Committee is appointed.

The Chairman of the Nomination Committee shall, unless the members agree otherwise, be the member appointed by the largest shareholder. The Nomination Committee's first meeting shall, however, be opened by the chairman of the company. If a member leaves the Nomination Committee before its work is completed, the owner who appointed this member has the right to appoint a new member. Fees shall not be paid from the company to the members of the Nomination Committee.

In the event of a material change in the company's ownership structure and a shareholder who, after this significant ownership change, has become one of the three largest shareholders, wishes to be included in the Nomination Committee, the Nomination Committee shall offer this place in the Nomination Committee by either deciding that this shareholder shall replace the, by votes, smallest shareholder in the Nomination Committee after the change, or decide to extend the

Nomination Committee with another member, but with a maximum of five members. Should any of the members of the Nomination Committee, before the Nomination Committee's mission is completed, resign for another reason or cease to represent the shareholder who appointed the member, such member, if the appointed member so requests, shall be replaced by a new member appointed by the shareholder. Changes in the Nomination Committee's composition shall be announced as soon as such has taken place.

The Nomination Committee shall prepare and submit following proposals to the AGM:

• − election of Chairman of the meeting,
• − election of the Chairman of the Board and other members of the Board of Directors,
• − Board fees divided between the Chairman and other members as well as remuneration for committee work,
• − election and remuneration to the auditor and deputy auditor (if applicable), and
• − principles for the appointment of Nomination Committee.

The Nomination Committee shall be entitled to charge the Company with expenses for, for example, recruitment consultants and other consultants required for the Nomination Committee to fulfil its mission. In conjunction with its mission, the Nomination Committee shall, in addition, fulfil the tasks that the Swedish Code of Corporate Governance requires.

Item 15 Resolution regarding remuneration guidelines for senior managers

The Board of Directors proposes that the AGM adopts the following guidelines for remunerating senior managers. Senior managers mean the group management including the CEO. Guidelines for remuneration also apply to directors' compensation for work undertaken outside their directorship. The proposal is designed to enable Beijer Electronics Group to offer market remuneration that can attract and retain skilled employees to the corporate management in a global perspective.

• Remuneration issues are considered by the Remuneration Committee and submitted to the Board of Directors for decision each year. Total remuneration includes basic salary and performance-related pay. Pension and other customary benefits are additional.
• Basic salary, which is individually set and differentiated on the basis of individual responsibilities and performance, is determined on the basis of market principles and reviewed yearly.
• The performance-related component is based on the achievement of predetermined goals. These goals relate to the company's profit performance and other key change goals. For the CEO and other senior managers, the yearly performance-related component may amount to a maximum of six months' salary.
• The CEO's pension is defined contribution and becomes due at age 65. Defined contribution pension agreements on market terms are in place for both the CEO and other senior managers.
• If the CEO's employment is terminated by Beijer Electronics Group, the CEO has an 18-month notice period. No other remuneration upon termination has been agreed. If other senior managers' employment is terminated by the company, a notice period of a maximum of 12 months has been agreed.
• Board members who carry out work on behalf of Beijer Electronics Group outside the terms of their directorship are entitled to receive consulting fees at market rates.
• At the AGM in 2017, the AGM decided to implement a long-term share based incentive program LTI 2017/2020. The Board of Directors have now proposed the implementation of an additional long-term share based incentive program (LTI 2018/2021) for senior managers and key employees, to be separately resolved under item 17 below. The mentioned incentive programs are not part of these remuneration guidelines.
• The Board of Directors is entitled to depart from the guidelines resolved by the AGM if there are special circumstances in individual cases.

Item 16 Resolution on authorization for the Board of Directors to reach decisions on new share issues

The Board of Directors proposes that the AGM resolves to authorize the Board of Directors to decide on the new issue of a maximum of 2,860,137 ordinary Shares on one or more occasions before the next AGM.

The proposal means that the Board of Directors would be authorized to decide on the new share issue with stipulations on issue in kind, set-off or subject to other terms stated in Chap. 13 § 5 para. 1 cl. 6p of the Swedish Companies Act, and waiving shareholders' preferential rights. The Board of Directors will be entitled to stipulate other terms for the share issue, including issue price, which however, shall be based on market terms.

The purpose of this authorization is to enable the company to issue shares to guarantee funds for purchase prices related to the acquisition of other companies, parts of companies, or other assets the Board of Directors judges to be valuable to the company's operations. Full utilization of this authorization would correspond to dilution of some 10 per cent of the share capital and votes.

Resolution pursuant to the Board of Directors' proposal requires the AGM's resolution being supported by shareholders representing at least two-thirds of the votes cast and shares represented at the Meeting.

Item 17 The proposal of the Board of Directors of (A) implementation of a long-term share based incentive program for (LTI 2018/2021) and (B) hedging in order to implement the program

(A) Implementation of a long-term share based incentive program LTI 2018/2021

The Board of Directors proposes that the AGM resolves on implementation of a long-term share based incentive program ("LTI 2018/2021") on essentially following terms and conditions. LTI 2018/2021 measures the performance 2018, but has a three year duration. It is the Board of Directors' intention that the structure of LTI 2018/2021 should be long-term, thus the Board intends to propose that the general meetings in the next years will resolve upon similar incentive programs, after the program has been evaluated. The program proposed below, corresponds to the long-term share based incentive program LTI 2017/2020 (adopted by the AGM 2017), in all material respects.

It is proposed that LTI 2018/2021 shall comprise not more than 20 employees within the Beijer Electronics Group, including the CEO, the Group management (at present five persons excluding the CEO), business management and other key employees. The program shall comprise a maximum of 250,000 ordinary shares in Beijer Electronics Group ("Performance Shares"). In order to receive Performance Shares it is required that the Performance Conditions established by the Board of Directors regarding the financial year 2018 are achieved or exceeded. Performance Shares will be received free of charge, whereby the CEO may receive a maximum of 30,000 Performance Shares and another member of the Group management and other participants may receive up to a maximum of 15,000 Performance Shares, whereby the Board of Directors resolves on the individual allocation within this framework. In order to participate in the program, the participant must no later than 1 September 2018 own Beijer Electronics Group shares. The participant must either acquire shares in the company corresponding to the maximum number of Performance Shares that the participant is entitled to receive, or acquire shares in the company corresponding to half of the maximum number of Performance Shares that the participant is entitled to receive, whereby the participant will receive half of the vested number of Performance Shares. The participant must retain the shares at least until 31 August 2019. If the participant does not acquire own shares or not retain the acquired shares during the specified period, the participant will not receive any Performance Shares.

The performance conditions that have to be achieved or exceeded relate to (i) operating profit, (ii) earnings per share, (iii) free cash flow and (iv) new orders (the "Performance Conditions"). The Performance Conditions are measured based on the outcome during the period 1 January 2018– 31 December 2018 (the "Performance Period"). The Board of Directors resolves on the Performance Conditions before LTI 2018/2021 is offered to the participants. The Board of Directors intends to inform about the determined Performance Conditions and the achievement of them in connection with the publication of the year-end report for 2018. The participants receives vested Performance Shares after the AGM 2021, before 1 July 2021 (the "Allotment Day").

(B) Hedging

In order to implement LTI 2018/2021 in a cost-effective and flexible manner, the Board of Directors proposes that the undertakings of the company for delivery and costs referable to Performance Shares primarily shall be secured by a directed issue of convertible and redeemable C shares followed by repurchase and conversion to ordinary shares and a resolution on transfer of own ordinary shares to senior executives in accordance with the following.

(1)-(3) Authorizations and transfer of own ordinary shares

The Board of Directors propose that the AGM resolves to authorize the Board of Directors to resolve on a directed issue of redeemable and convertible series C shares in the company on the following terms and conditions.

The maximum number of series C shares to be issued shall amount to 330,000. The authorization may be exercised on one or several occasions until the AGM 2019. With deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, the new shares may be subscribed for only by one external party after arrangement in advance. The amount to be paid for each new share (the subscription price) shall equal the share's quota value at the time of subscription. The new series C shares shall be subject to Chapter 4, Section 6 of the Swedish Companies Act (conversion restriction) and Chapter 20, Section 31 of the Swedish Companies Act (redemption restriction).

Further, the Board of Directors propose that the AGM resolves to authorize the Board of Directors to repurchase all issued redeemable and convertible series C shares in the company on the following terms and conditions.

Repurchase may take place by way of an acquisition offer directed to all holders of series C shares in Beijer Electronics Group. The authorization may be exercised on one or several occasions until the AGM 2019. The maximum number of series C shares to be repurchased shall amount to 330,000. Repurchase shall be made at a price per share of minimum 100% and maximum 115% of the quota value applicable at the time of subscription. Payment of repurchased shares shall be made in cash. The Board of Directors shall have the right to resolve on other terms and conditions for the repurchase. Repurchase may also be made of a so-called interim share, by Euroclear Sweden AB designated as a Paid Subscribed Share (Sw. Betald Tecknad Aktie (BTA)), regarding a series C share.

Finally, the Board of Directors propose that transfer of own ordinary shares to participants in LTI 2018/2021 shall be made on the following terms and conditions.

A maximum number of 250,000 Beijer Electronics Group shares may be transferred free of charge to participants in LTI 2018/2021. With deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, the right to acquire Beijer Electronics Group shares free of charge shall comprise employees in the Group participating in LTI 2018/2021, with a right for each of the participants to acquire the maximum number of shares stipulated in the terms and conditions of LTI 2018/2021. Transfer of Beijer Electronics Group shares shall be made free of charge at the time for, and according to the terms for, the allotment of Beijer Electronics Group shares to participants in LTI 2018/2021. The number of Beijer Electronics Group shares that may be transferred under LTI 2018/2021 shall be recalculated due to any intervening bonus issue, split, preferential issue and/or similar corporate actions.

Others

The maximum number of Performance Shares that may be allotted to the participants under LTI 2018/2021 amounts to 250,000, which corresponds to approximately 0.9 per cent of the share capital and votes in the company after dilution. Aggregated with the maximum number of additional shares that may be transferred, which mainly consists of cash flow related hedging of costs for social security contributions, LTI 2018/2021 will comprise not more than 330,000 shares and the maximum dilution of the program will amount to approximately 1.2 per cent of the share capital and votes in Beijer Electronics Group after dilution.

Based on the assumption of a stock market price of SEK 30, the total costs for LTI 2018/2021 are estimated to approximately MSEK 9.9, provided that the Performance Conditions are fully met. Of these costs, approximately MSEK 7.5 relates to accounting (not affecting cash) costs calculated in accordance with IFRS 2. Other costs mainly relates to calculated social security contributions, which are hedged through the issue of series C shares. Given the full-year result of 2017, the costs for LTI 2018/2021 would have a negative effect of approximately 0.3 percentage units on Beijer Electronics Groups' operating margin and a reduction of profit per share of approximately SEK 0.11, provided that the Performance Conditions in the cost estimate above are fully achieved.

The resolution of the AGM to implement LTI 2018/2021 in accordance with section A above is conditional upon the hedging activities in section B above. In order for the resolution by the AGM on implementation of LTI 2018/2021 to be valid, the Board of Directors' proposal under section A must be supported by shareholders representing at least nine-tenths of both the votes cast and shares represented at the AGM.

LTI 2018/2021 has been initiated by the Board of Beijer Electronics Group and prepared in consultation with the major shareholders and external advisors.

The Board of Directors' proposal under items 16 and 17 also include authorization for the CEO to make such minor amendments to the AGM resolutions that may be necessary for registering these resolutions with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.

Number of shares and votes

As of March 23, 2018 the number of ordinary shares of the company amount to 28 601 379 with each one vote, corresponding to 28 601 379 votes and the number of C shares amount to 34 657 with each one-tenth of a vote, corresponding to 3 465,7 votes. The total number of shares in the company amount to 28 636 036 and the total number of votes to 28 604 844. As of March 23, 2018, the company holds 34 657 C shares.

Other

The annual accounts, audit report, Board of Directors' complete proposals including proposal for decision regarding LTI 2018/2021 and auditors' statement pursuant to chap. 8 § 54 of the Swedish Companies Act will be available from the company and the company's website (www.beijergroup.com) from April 5, 2018 onwards, and will be sent by mail to those shareholders that notified the company of their wish to receive it.

If any shareholder so requests, and the Board of Directors considers that it is possible without significant detriment to the company, the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer shall present information, firstly on circumstances that can affect the judgment of an item on the agenda, secondly circumstances that may influence judgment of the company's or subsidiaries' financial position, and thirdly the company's relationship to other group companies.
