Item 17 Resolution regarding guidelines for remuneration and other terms of employment for key executives
The Board proposes that the guidelines are approved by the Meeting to apply for the time up until the Annual General Meeting 2016. The complete proposal is processed by the Board and the Remuneration Committee of the Board and will be held available on the company's website no later than April 1, 2015.
The total remuneration shall be competitive in every market where Intrum Justitia is active, so that competent and skilful employees can be attracted, motivated and retained. New pension plans shall be defined contributionbased and the size of the pensionable salary shall be capped.
The cost for short-term variable salary programmes to the Managing Director and other key executives in 2015 is estimated not to exceed SEK 12.2 million, excluding social security charges.

- that the number of shares shall be no less than 65,000,000 and no more than 260,000,000.
