latest six months before the Annual General Meeting, each elect a representative
as a member of the Nomination Committee. The Nomination Committee shall then
internally elect one of the members as the Chairman. In the event that any of
the three largest shareholders waives its right to elect a representative to the
Nomination Committee, the fourth largest shareholder shall instead elect a
representative or, if the fourth largest shareholder also declines, the
shareholders shall thereafter, in a descending order, elect a representative
until three representatives are appointed. In the event that a member leaves the
Nomination Committee before the work of the Nomination Committee is completed,
the shareholder that appointed that member shall appoint a new member. In the
event that such shareholder declines to appoint a new representative, the fourth
largest shareholder shall instead elect a representative or, if the fourth
largest shareholder also declines, the shareholders shall thereafter, in a
descending order, elect a representative until a new representative is
appointed.

The Nomination Committee shall pursue the tasks that, according to the Swedish
Code of Corporate Governance, are the responsibility of the nomination
committee.

No fee is to be paid to the Nomination Committee. However, the company is
responsible for all reasonable costs related to the carrying out of the
Nomination Committee’s assignment.
