Styret viser til kravet i allmennaksjeloven § 5-6 fjerde ledd at generalforsamlingen skal behandle redegjørelse for foretaksstyring som er avgitt i henhold til kravet i regnskapsloven § 3-3b, hvorav følger at det i årsberetningen eller i dokument det er henvist til i årsberetningen skal redegjøres for prinsipper og praksis vedrørende foretaksstyring.

Q-Free følger den norske anbefalingen for eierstyring og selskapsledelse av 23.10.2012, utgitt av Norsk utvalg for eierstyring og selskapsledelse (NUES, offentliggjort på www.nues.no)./) Styret har i årsberetningen for 2013 redegjort for selskapets prinsipper og praksis vedrørende foretaksstyring, og styret viser derfor til redegjørelsen i årsberetningen, som er offentliggjort sammen med innkallingen og de øvrige saksdokumentene til den ordinære generalforsamlingen.

In accordance with the Norwegian Code of Practice for Corporate Governance, the Nomination Committee has considered the need for changes in the composition of the Board of Directors and the Nomination Committee, and has, as part of its work, had talks with major shareholders, Board members and the CEO. Shareholders in total representing approx. 71 % of the votes and the share capital of Q-Free ASA have been contacted during the process. The Nomination Committee has also reviewed the self-evaluation from the Board of Directors and has evaluated the work and the composition of the Board of Directors, irrespective of the period the members of the Board are elected for. The Company has published information on its website regarding the Nomination Committee's composition and contact information, together with information of the deadline for input to the composition of the Nomination Committee and the Board of Directors and the remuneration of the Board of Directors.

The Nomination Committee has in this respect been concerned with ensuring that the composition of the Board, and also the framework for the work of the Board, is suitable to ensure that Company sensitive information cannot be misused by others, and thus jeopardizing the Company's competitive situation.
• The members of the Board of Directors must have the capacity to perform their tasks.

Q-Free ASA, as a listed company, is obliged to have an audit committee elected by and between the members of the Board of Directors.
