11. Proposed directors’ fees for the period until the end of the next Annual General Meeting are a total of SEK 860,000, which is SEK 100,000 higher than the previous year. The increase is a consequence of the proposal to increase the number of members with one person.

Additionally, SEK 60,000 is proposed for allocation between members of Committees in accordance with the Chairman of the Board’s decision.

Director of the Board may invoice the Company the fee from company, provided that the cost is not higher for NOTE compared with paying the fee as salary.

12. Re-election of the following Board members is proposed: Kjell-Åke Andersson, Bruce Grant, and Stefan Johansson. Election of Andre Klotz, Daniel Nyhrén and Kristian Teär is proposed. Kristian Teär is proposed as Chairman of the Board.

13. The Nomination Committee shall be formed by each of the four largest shareholders that wish to participate appointing a member, with the Chairman of the Board as convener, at least six months prior to the Annual General Meeting of shareholders. Where one or more shareholders decline this right, the next-largest shareholder shall be offered the corre-sponding opportunity. The names of the four members shall be published as soon as they are appointed.

The majority of the members of the Nomination Committee shall not be Board members or the Chief Executive Officer, nor shall any other member of management be a member of the Nomination Committee. Unless the members agree otherwise, the Chairman of the Nomination Committee shall be that member representing the largest shareholder in terms of voting rights. However, a Board member shall not be Chairman of the Nomination Committee. The Nomination Committee’s mandate runs until the appointment of a new Nomination Committee.

A member shall leave the Nomination Committee if the shareholder they represent is no longer one of the four largest shareholders. In circumstances where more than one member leaves the Nomination Committee for the aforementioned reason, the four largest shareholders at that time shall then appoint four members to the Nomination Committee. However, unless there are special circumstances, no changes shall occur to the Nomination Committee’s composition if only marginal changes to the number of votes have occurred, or if the change occurs later than two months prior to the Annual General Meeting.

Shareholders that have appointed a member of the Nomination Committee are entitled to dismiss such member and appoint a new member of the Nomination Committee. Changes to the composition of the Nomination Committee shall be published as soon as they occur.

The Nomination Committee shall prepare a proposal for a Chairman of the Meeting, Board of Directors, Chairman of the Board, Directors’ fees, instructions for the Nomination Committee, and where applicable, the auditors, and remuneration of auditors to be submitted to the Annual General Meeting (and where applicable, Extraordinary General Meeting) for resolution.

On demand from the Nomination Committee, the company shall provide personnel such as secretarial functions for the Nomination Committee to facilitate the work of the Nomination Committee. Where necessary, the company shall also bear reasonable costs for external consultants that the Nomination Committee considers necessary for the Nomination Committee to be able to perform its duties.

Purchases will be for cash payments, either on the stock exchange where the company’s shares are listed or through an offering to all shareholders. The price to be paid shall correspond to the market value of the company’s shares when the offering is publicly announced.
