Major shareholders have also been interviewed and invited to voice their opinions.

All other members of the Board have terms that expire and are up for election at the Annual General Meeting in 2018.The Nomination Committee proposes to re-elect the following members for the period to the Annual General Meeting in 2020:

Stein Holst Annexstad (chairman, re-elected by default)

2. Remuneration to the Board of Directors for the period from the Annual General Meeting in 2018 to the Annual General Meeting in 2019

The Board of Directors comprises Stein Holst Annexstad (chairman), Susan Foden, Sveinung Hole, Jon Øyvind Eriksen, Hilde Furberg, Stener Kvinnsland and Kari Grønås.

The Nomination Committee has based its remuneration considerations on reviews of remuneration for comparable companies. Several sources have been consulted. Consistency with earlier practice combined with bridging to established normal practice for publicly listed companies is sought in the suggestion for board remuneration.

The Committee therefore believes that the proposal represents a competitive, but not leading, level of remuneration, corresponding to responsibilities, competence requirements and workload.
