The Nomination Committee, consisting of the chairman of the Nomination Committee Jens Wilhelmsson (appointed by Anchor Capital), Guðmundur Pálmason, Ingvi Tomasson as well as Bertil Villard in his capacity as the Chairman of the Board of Strax, proposes:

• that Jesper Schönbeck shall be elected Chairman of the Annual General Meeting (item 2).
• that the Board of Directors shall consist of five members without deputies (item 11).
• that each member of the Board of Directors who is considered to be independent in relation to major shareholders, is entitled to receive SEK 100,000, and the chairman of the Board of Directors is entitled to SEK 150,000, as remuneration. According to the Nomination Committee’s proposal, Bertil Villard, Anders Lönnqvist and Michel Bracké shall be entitled to receive remuneration, whereby the Directors’ total remuneration will amount to SEK 350,000. Following a separate agreement with the company, a Board member may invoice the fees for the board work, together with statutory social security contributions and value added tax, through a company owned by the Board member, subject to the precondition that such payment is cost neutral to the company (item 12).
• that the auditor’s fees shall be paid as per current account as approved by the company (item 12).
• the re-election of Bertil Villard, Anders Lönnqvist, Michel Bracké, Gudmundur Palmason and Ingvi Tyr Tomasson as members of the Board of Directors for the period until the end of the next Annual General Meeting. Bertil Villard is proposed as chairman of the Board of Directors (item 13).
• the election of KPMG AB as auditor, with Mårten Asplund as auditor in charge, for the period until the end of the next Annual General Meeting. The proposition is in accordance with the Board’s recommendation (item 13).
• that the company shall have a Nomination Committee consisting of one member appointed by each of the three shareholders or groups of shareholders controlling the largest number of votes, in addition to the Chairman of the Board. The Nomination Committee shall be constituted based upon statistics of ownership from the shareholders’ register kept by Euroclear Sweden AB as per the last banking day in August each year and other reliable ownership information that has been provided to the company at that time. The Nomination Committee shall remain in office until a new Nomination Committee has been appointed. The Nomination Committee and its Chairman should fulfil the criteria regarding independence set out in the applicable corporate governance code. The Nomination Committee shall prepare proposals regarding the election of Chairman of General Meetings, the election of and remuneration to the Chairman of the Board and other Board members, as well as the auditors, and regarding provisions concerning the Nomination Committee. No fees shall be paid for the Nomination Committees work (item 17).

Proposal to decide on guidelines for remuneration of the Management (item 14)

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves to approve the Board of Director’s proposal regarding guidelines for remuneration of the Management as set forth below. The proposal substantially complies with earlier applied guidelines for remuneration of the Management of the company. The Board of Directors as a whole serves as a remuneration committee in relation to matters regarding remuneration and other terms of employment for the Management of the company.

Strax shall offer conditions in line with the market which will enable the company to recruit and retain competent personnel. The remuneration of the Management of the Group shall consist of fixed salary, variable remuneration, share-based incentive programs, pension and other customary benefits. The remuneration is based on the commitment and performance of the individual in relation to individual objectives and joint objectives for the company which have been determined in advance. The individual performance is continuously evaluated.

The fixed salary is in general reviewed on a yearly basis and shall be based on the qualitative performance of the individual. The fixed salary of the Managing Director and the Management shall be in line with the market.

Strax may adopt share-based incentive programs intended to promote the company’s long-term interests by motivating and rewarding the management of the company, among others.

The Board of Directors may, if special circumstances are at hand in a certain case, decide to deviate from the guidelines.

Proposal to authorise the Board of Directors to resolve upon new share issues (item 15)

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves to authorise the Board of Directors to up until the next Annual General Meeting, on one or several occasions and with or without preferential rights for the shareholders, against cash payment or against payment through set-off or in kind, or otherwise on special conditions. However, such issue of shares must never result in the company’s issued share capital or the number of shares in the company at any time, being increased by more than a total of 10 per cent.

The reason for the proposal and the possibility to deviate from shareholders’ preferential rights in the proposal is, among other things, to facilitate for the company to carry out acquisitions with payment in shares or to otherwise procure the financing of the company in an active and appropriate manner.

A resolution in accordance with the Board of Directors’ proposal shall only be valid where supported by not less than two-thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the Meeting.

Proposal to authorise the Board of Directors to acquire and sell the company´s own shares (item 16)

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves to authorise the Board of Directors to decide on the acquisition and sale of the company’s own shares, where the following shall apply;

1. Acquisition and sale of own shares shall exclusively take place on Nasdaq Stockholm.
2. The authorisation may be utilised on one or several occasions until the 2018 Annual General Meeting.
3. Shares may be acquired to the extent that the company’s holding of its own shares, on any occasion, does not exceed ten (10) per cent of the company’s total shares. Sale may be carried out of not more than the number of shares acquired under this authorisation.
4. Acquisition and sale of shares may only take place at a price within the price interval, on any occasion, recorded on Nasdaq Stockholm, which refers to the interval between the highest buying price and the lowest selling price.

The purpose of the proposed authorisation is to provide flexibility as regards the company’s possibilities to distribute capital to its shareholders and to promote more efficient capital usage in the company, which altogether is deemed to have a positive impact on the company’s share price and thereby contribute to an increased shareholder value.

A resolution in accordance with the Board of Directors’ proposal shall only be valid where supported by not less than two-thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the Meeting.

Proposal to adopt new articles of association (item 18)

At the extraordinary shareholders meeting held on 22 December 2016 it was resolved to change the company’s reporting currency to euro. The share capital of the company have now been converted into euro by the Swedish Companies Registration Office and as a final step in the change of the company’s reporting currency the limits of the share capital in the company’s articles of association need to be changed to euro. The Board of Directors therefore proposes that the Annual General Meeting adopt new articles of association regarding that the highest and lowest share capital shall be stated in euro as set out in the table below. It is further proposed that the limits of the number of shares in the company shall be adjusted as set out in the table below.

Article	Current   wording	Proposed   wording
