However, the Chairman of the Board of Directors and the CEO shall be at least annually invited to attend the meeting of the Committee.

The members of the Board are elected for a 2-year term by the General Meeting. The chairman and the deputy chairman of the Board of Directors are elected for a 1-year term.

The Nomination Committee observes that the company is steady growing. Future growth is expected to come mainly from outside of Norway. The Nomination Committee means that this suggests need for an increased capacity as well as continuity in the Board of Directors.

Therefor the Nomination Committee proposes to increase the total number of shareholder-elected members from 5 to 6 members.

The Nomination Committee has also weighted in the fact that the members of the Board of Directors together have to have a wide professional experience, varied background and tasks in the Board. It is also important that the members of the Board of Directors have the necessary competence in order to be included into the Board's subcommittees, i.e. the Audit Committee, the Risk Committee and the Compensation Committee. The Nomination Committee wants to maintain the continuity in the Board of Directors and to carry forward a well-functioning collegium with a broad professional background and good grounding among the Company's biggest shareholders.

The members elected by the shareholders standing for election in 2019 are Jostein Sørvoll, Erik G. Braathen and Else Bugge Fougner while Jørgen Stenshagen and Randi Helene Røed stand for election in 2020.
