Point 15: The Nomination Committee proposes the following instructions for the Nomination Committee:

The Nomination Committee shall be formed through the four largest shareholders, who wish to participate, at least six months prior to the Annual General Meeting each appointing a representative, with the Company's Chairman included and as convening authority. In the event that one or more shareholders waive such right, the next shareholders based on size shall be offered the corresponding possibility. The names of the four representatives shall be disclosed publicly as soon as appointed. The majority of the Nomination Committee's

members shall not be Board members and the President or any other person in Company management shall not be a member of the Nomination Committee. The Chairman of the Nomination Committee shall, if the members do not agree otherwise, be the member who represents the largest shareholder based on voting rights. However, the Board Chairman or other Board member shall not be the Chairman of the Nomination committee. The mandate of the Nomination Committee is until the next Nomination Committee is appointed. Members shall resign from the Nomination Committee if the shareholder they represent is no longer one of the four largest shareholders. In the event that more than one member leaves the Nomination Committee for the aforementioned reason, the four largest shareholders at that time shall appoint four representatives to the Nomination Committee. However, unless there is a specific reason, no changes shall be made in the composition of the Nomination Committee if only marginal changes in the number of votes occurred or the change occurs later than two months prior to the Annual General Meeting. Shareholders who appoint a representative to the Nomination Committee are entitled to dismiss such a member and appoint a new representative as member of the Nomination Committee. Changes in the composition of the Nomination Committee shall be disclosed publicly as soon as they occur. The Nomination Committee shall prepare a proposal for Chairman of the Meeting, Board of Directors, Board Chairman, Board fees, principles for appointing the Nomination Committee and in appropriate cases auditors and fees to be paid the auditors to be presented to the Annual General Meeting (and in appropriate cases Extraordinary General Meeting) for decision. At the request of the Nomination Committee, the Company shall provide personnel resources such as secretary function in the Nomination Committee to facilitate its work. As needed, the Company shall also assume reasonable costs for external consultants that the Nomination Committees deems necessary for it being able to fulfill its assignment.

Point 16: The Nomination Committee proposes that Board fee to the Chairman shall amount to SEK 210,000 and other Board members who do not receive salaries from the company shall receive SEK 105,000 each.

Point 17: The Board proposes that the Meeting decide to establish the following guidelines for senior executives. The proposal primarily agrees with guidelines applied by the Company during 2007. The Board shall be entitled to deviate from the guidelines if there are special reasons in individual cases.

Remuneration to the President is decided by the Board. Remuneration to other senior executives is decided by the President in accordance with principles established by the Board. Board members who are also included in company management, for example, the President, will not participate in work pertaining to such matters. Remuneration will be paid to the Chairman of the Board and members according to the decision of the Annual General Meeting.

Remuneration to the President

The President will be paid, in addition to fixed monthly salary, a bonus, which will amount to a maximum of SEK 350,000 per year. Notice period for termination of employment by Catena is 12 months and by the President six months. If termination is initiated by the Company, which is not based on serious breach of contract on the part of the President, the President is entitled to severance pay, in addition to his ordinary monthly salary, corresponding to 12 months salary with deduction for remunerations received for other services during the period. Severance pay will also be paid if the prerequisites for the position have changed by one owner or a group of owners acquiring more than 50 percent of the total

voting rights for all shares in the Company. The retirement age for the President is 60 years. Between 60 and 65 years, pension will be paid in the amount of 70 percent of the pensionable final salary on a yearly basis and the average of the President's bonus during the final three years of employment. After the age of 65, the President will receive pension corresponding to the ITP plan. In addition, the President is entitled to pension insurance in a base amount that Catena previously signed with the President as beneficiary. The President is entitled to a company car, free telephone and free daily newspapers.

Remuneration to other senior executives

For other senior executives, notice of termination initiated by Catena is 12 months and by the employee between three and six months. Retirement age for other senior executives is 65 years. There is a pension agreement corresponding to the ITP plan. The Chief Financial Officer can receive bonus, which may amount to a maximum of SEK 80,000 annually, which is based on personal targets. All other senior executives are entitled to company cars.

Point 18: The Board of Directors proposes that the Meeting authorize the Board, if the Board deems appropriate, to make decisions pertaining to acquisition and transfer of own shares. The authorization is aimed at providing the Board with additional freedom of action in its work with the Company's capital structure and if appropriate, to facilitate the acquisition of operations through payment using company shares. Acquisition of own shares may amount to a maximum corresponding to one tenth of the number of shares issued in the company. Remuneration for shares shall be market-based. Transfer of own shares may amount to a maximum of the number, which at the time of transfer, was acquired according to the above and may occur through deviation from shareholders' preferential rights in connection with acquisition of operations, when payment could be made in another form than monetary. The Board shall, on one or more occasions, be able to make such decisions prior to the 2009 Annual General Meeting.
