2 RESPONSIBILITES

The nomination committee shall recommend:

  • candidates for the election of members, including the chair, to (a) the board of directors of the Company and (b) the nomination committee; and
  • remuneration of the members of (a) the board of directors and (b) the nomination committee.

3 RECOMMENDATIONS

3.1 Nominations of candidates for the board of directors

The nomination of candidates for election of members, including the chair, to the board of directors should take the following into account:

  • the board of directors should be composed in such a manner that the interests of the shareholders and the Company's need for competence and diversity are maintained;
  • the composition of the board of directors must satisfy applicable legal requirements and principles of corporate governance;
  • the candidates should be likely to be approved;
  • the board of directors must function well as a collegiate body; and
  • members should be independent of the executive management and any significant business associates.

Before nominating a candidate for election, the nomination committee must seek confirmation from the individual in question that he or she is willing to accept the appointment if elected (i.e. obtain a declaration of willingness from such person).

3.2 Recommendations for remuneration of board members

Recommendations for remuneration of the members of the board of directors and the nomination committee, respectively, should take into account such body's significance, and ensure that the proposal is suited to the character and time commitment of the tasks carried out.

4 REASONING

The recommendations should include explanations detailing how each of the candidates fulfil the shareholders' and the Company's needs. Such reasoning shall include information about the competence, capacity and independence of each candidate. The information about a candidate should include his or her age, education and professional experience. Any ownership interest in the Company must be disclosed, as shall any assignments on behalf of the Company and any significant position in or assignments for other companies or organisations.

The nomination committee shall consider the need for changes in the composition of the board of directors, and shall maintain contact with different shareholders, members of the board of directors and the executive management of the Company. The nomination committee must consider the board of directors' annual evaluation report closely. In the event of a suggestion of re-election of board members, the recommendation should also state how long the candidate has served as a member of the board of directors, and should detail his or her participation in board meetings.

The recommendations should also describe the working process of the nomination committee.

The nomination committee shall be responsible for proposing the remuneration to the members of the board of directors and the nomination committee. The nomination committee's proposals in this respect shall include an explanation of how the committee has arrived at its recommendations.

The chairman of the nomination committee has the main responsibility for the committee's work, and shall ensure that the committee has adequate access to necessary competence. In relation to this, the committee may use company resources or seek advice and recommendations from external sources.

The nomination committee will hold meetings to reach its decisions. The nomination committee's meetings are held after they are called for by the chairman, who is obliged to call for a meeting if one of the members of the committee so requests. The nomination committee's meetings may be held in person, by phone or by video.

The nomination committee constitutes a quorum when at least half of its members are present at the meeting and all members have been given the opportunity to participate. Each member has one vote and decisions made by the nomination committee require simple majority of the votes represented at the meeting. In the event of an equal number of votes, the chairman of the nomination committee has the casting vote. The nomination committee shall produce written minutes of its meetings and shall deliver its minutes to the Company for safekeeping.

The nomination committee must look actively to the shareholders and anchor the recommendation with the Company's largest shareholders. It must ensure that information of any deadlines for proposing candidates or making suggestions to the nomination committee regarding elections of members of the board of directors and the nomination committee is made available on the Company's website.

The board of directors will pass on its evaluation of its own activities and competence to the nomination committee. The chairman of the board and the Chief Executive Officer must be summoned to at least one nomination committee meeting before the committee gives its final recommendation. The committee must collect relevant information from the Company's administration or other individuals, including from shareholders and the board of directors.
