Chair of the Annual General Meeting (Item 1 of the Notice)
The Nomination Committee proposes that attorney Mattias Prage of the law firm Lindahl be appointed as Chair of the meeting.
Proposal regarding the number of Board members (item 9 of the notice)
The Nomination Committee proposes that the Board of Directors consist of five (5) ordinary members without alternates. The addition of one member compared to the previous year is due to the fact that the Chairman of the Board, Jan Poulsen, plans to leave the Board due to time constraints. Jan Poulsen has agreed to remain as Chairman during a transition period—at the latest until the 2027 Annual General Meeting—to ensure a smooth introduction of the new members.

The Nomination Committee proposes that Board remuneration be paid in the amount of SEK 500,000 to the Chairman of the Board and SEK 300,000 to each of the other Board members. It is further proposed that no remuneration be paid for work on committees. Remuneration to the auditor is proposed to be paid in accordance with an approved invoice. The proposal regarding remuneration is unchanged from the previous Annual General Meeting.
The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolve to establish a Nomination Committee in accordance with the provisions below. The Nomination Committee’s instructions shall remain in effect until the Annual General Meeting adopts new ones.
Proposal for the Board of Directors and Chairman of the Board (Item 11 in the Notice)
The Nomination Committee proposes the re-election of Jan Poulsen, Ken Nelson, and Dr. Tony Das as ordinary members of the Board of Directors. Marlou Janssen-Counott has declined re-election due to other commitments. The Nomination Committee proposes the election of Erik von Schenck and Marcin Gołębicki as new ordinary members of the Board of Directors.
