Item 13. Proposal for a resolution on the establishment of a Nomination Committee
The Nomination Committee propose that the AGM resolves to appoint a Nomination Committee with the task of preparing proposals for the election of Board Members and auditors as well as remuneration for these prior to future AGMs.

Every year and no later than the end of the third quarter, the Chairman of the Board must call a meeting of the three largest shareholders in the company, each of which is then entitled to select a representative. If any of these shareholders decline to select a representative, the Chairman shall then consult with the next largest shareholder. However, the Chairman only needs to ask, at most, the six largest shareholders. If, in spite of this, the Nomination Committee does not contain at least three members, the Nomination Committee may itself select the appropriate number of members.

Board Members, the company's Managing Director and any other member of the company management shall not be eligible to sit on the Nomination Committee.

The Nomination Committee shall select a chairman at the constituting meeting. The composition of the Nomination Committee must be announced as soon as possible, though no later than six months prior to the Annual General Meeting. If there is a significant change in the ownership, after the Nomination Committee has been appointed and the Committee has a member appointed by a shareholder who has reduced its holdings, this member will resign from the Nomination Committee. The Chairman of the Nomination Committee shall thereafter consult the shareholders in accordance with the above policy.

It is proposed that the AGM resolves to authorise the Board to decide on the issue of new shares up to a maximum of 1, 000,000 class B shares without preferential rights for existing shareholders. The authorisation shall apply on one or more occasion up until the next AGM and it shall be possible to issue the shares against offsetting or against capital contributed in kind. In the event of the full utilisation, the authorisation is equivalent to dilution of 8.1 percent of the capital and 4.2 percent of the votes.

In order for the resolution to be approved requires that at least 2/3 of the votes and shares present must approve the proposal.

Item 15. Guidelines for the remuneration of executives
The Board proposes the following guidelines for the remuneration of the Managing Director and other senior executives. Other senior executives mean members of the Group management.

The aim of Rejlers' remuneration policy for company management is to offer a package that will attract and retain qualified expertise for Rejlers. Generally speaking, Rejlers does not offer any benefits greater than those that constitute local practice.

The remuneration of the Managing Director and other senior executives shall be at the market rate and consist of a basic salary, variable remuneration, pensions and, in certain cases, other benefits. The variable remuneration is limited to no more than 60 percent of the basic salary.

The variable remuneration is primarily based on the Group's profit and the individually attained result in relation to the quantitative and qualitative goals set. The pensionable age for the Managing Director and the company as a whole is 65. The pension is contribution-based and no pension commitments exist over and above the pension premiums paid. The general pension plan applies for other senior executives, either via the ITP plan or through individual occupational pension insurance within the framework of ITP.

A mutual notice period of 12 months will apply between the company and the Managing Director. A mutual notice period of 6-12 months will apply between the company and other senior executives. The Board proposes that the Board be given the right to deviate from the above proposed guidelines should there be special cause to do so in individual cases.
