Fixed cash salary
The fixed cash salary shall be determined taking into account the executive's responsibility, authority, competence and experience.
Variable cash remuneration
The variable cash remuneration shall be linked to predetermined, well-defined and measurable criteria for the group, which can be financial or non-financial. The variable cash remuneration may amount to not more than 50 per cent of the total fixed cash salary under the measurement period for such criteria. The criteria for variable cash remuneration shall to 60 per cent linked to operational EBITA, to 20 per cent be linked to the relation between the working capital being tied up and sales, and to 20 per cent be linked to measurable strategical individual criteria, which may be financial or non-financial. The satisfaction of criteria for awarding variable cash remuneration shall be measured over a period of one or several years. The criteria for awarding variable cash remuneration shall aim at promoting
Pension benefits
For the CEO and other executives, pension benefits, including health insurance (Sw: sjukförsäkring), shall be premium defined unless the executive concerned is subject to defined benefit pension under mandatory collective agreement provisions. Variable cash remuneration equivalent to maximum 50 per cent of the maximum variable cash remuneration shall qualify for pension benefits, unless otherwise required by mandatory collective agreement provisions. The pension premiums for premium defined pension shall amount to not more than 30 per cent of the pensionable income for the CEO and not more than 25 per cent of the pensionable income for other executives.
Other benefits

Such remuneration may not exceed an amount corresponding to 100 per cent of the fixed annual cash salary and may not be paid more than once each year per individual. Any resolution on such remuneration shall be made by the Board of Directors based on a proposal from the Remuneration Committee.

The Board's proposal on authorization for the Board to resolve on new share issues (item 15)
The Board proposes that the AGM resolves to authorise the Board to resolve on new issues of shares on the following terms and conditions:
1. The authorisation may be exercised on one or several occasions up to the annual general meeting 2020.
2. Maximum 5,796,752 shares, corresponding to 10 per cent of the company's share capital, may be issued.
3. An issue may be made with or without deviation from the shareholders' preferential right.
4. An issue may be made against cash payment, by set-off or by contribution in kind.
5. The subscription price shall, at deviation from the shareholders' preferential right, be determined in accordance with market practice. The Board shall be entitled to determine other terms of the issue.
The purpose of the above authorisation and the reason for the deviation from the shareholders' preferential right is to enable the company, by way of issues of new shares for payment in cash, in kind or through set-off, to strengthen the company's ability to carry out or finance company acquisitions, or to strengthen the company's capital base in connection therewith.
The Board, or anyone appointed by the Board, shall be authorized to make such minor adjustments of the resolution of the general meeting that may be necessary in connection with registration with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.
Majority requirement: Under the Swedish Companies Act, the resolution of the general meeting on authorization for the Board to resolve on new share issues requires the support of shareholders representing at least two-thirds of both the number of votes cast and the shares represented at the meeting in order to be valid.
