The Auditor’s term of office terminates at the Annual General Meeting in 2012.

THE NOMINATING COMMITTEE (POINT 14)
The nominating committee proposes to the Annual General Meeting to decide:

  • that the nominating committee for the Annual General Meeting of 2011 will consist of  Carl Bennet, (Carl Bennet AB), Chairman, Göran Erlandsson (representative for minor shareholders), Hans Hedström (HQ Funds), Nils Petter Hollekim (Odin Funds) and Caroline af Ugglas (Skandia Liv),
  • that in case an owner representative no longer represents the shareholder in question, or for other reasons leave the nominating committee before its task is accomplished, the shareholder is permitted to choose a new representative as member of the nominating committee,
  • that in the case the owner representative represents a shareholder who has sold all or most of its holding in Elanders AB, the nominating committee may decide that the member shall vacate the post and, if the nominating committee considers it prudent, offer another representative for a major shareholder a place on the nominating committee, and
  • that the nominating committee in connection with its role will fulfill the duties that according to the Swedish code for corporate governance are required of  a nominating committee.

GUIDELINES ON REMUNERATION TO SENIOR OFFICERS (POINT 15)
The Board proposes guidelines mainly entailing that the company offer total compensation on par with market levels so that the company can recruit and keep qualified senior officers. Remuneration to senior officers will consist of a basic wage, variable remuneration, other benefits and a pension. The basic wage will take into consideration the individual’s responsibility and experience. The division between basic wage and variable remuneration will be in proportion to the officer’s responsibility and authority. The variable remuneration will be based on results in relationship to individual targets. Variable remuneration for the CEO may amount to, at most, 50 percent of his/her basic wage. For other senior officers variable remuneration may amount to, at most, 40 percent of his/her basic wage. These guidelines are essentially the same as the principles followed so far.

DOCUMENTS
The annual accounts and all other necessary documents will be available at the company and on its website, www.elanders.com, at least two weeks before the Annual General Meeting. Copies of these documents will be sent to shareholders who request it and provide their mailing address. Copies will also be distributed at the Annual General Meeting. This Notice to Attend can also be found on the company website as well as presentations of the nominated Board Members.
