Proposal for resolution regarding guidelines for remuneration to management
(item 14 on the Agenda)
The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves on
guidelines for remuneration to the management principally entailing that
salaries and other terms of remuneration to the management shall be in
accordance with market conditions. In addition to a fixed salary, the management
may also receive variable remuneration which shall have a predetermined cap and
be based on the outcome in proportion to targeted results (and in some cases
other key figures) within the individual area of responsibility (group or
division) as well as other benefits. In addition to the variable remuneration,
there may from time to time be approved share or share related incentive
programs. The total cost of fixed and variable remuneration shall each year be
set to an amount which includes all the company's remuneration costs, which
enables the management to allocate part of the fixed and variable remuneration
to other benefits, such as pension benefits. The pension plans of the management
shall be principally fee-based.

Upon notice of termination by the company there may be a right to severance pay
which in such cases shall have a predetermined cap. No severance pay shall be
paid upon notice of termination by the employee.

The Board of Directors shall be entitled to deviate from the guidelines in an
individual case, if there are specific reasons for such deviation.


Proposal for resolution regarding long term performance based incentive program
(item 15 on the agenda)
Background and reason for the proposal
There is currently one ongoing subscription warrant program in Niscayah Group AB
(“Warrant Program 2007/2012”) directed to approximately 60 senior executives and
key employees. Since Warrant Program 2007/2012 was introduced, new senior
executives and key employees, who are not comprised by Warrant program
2007/2012, have been employed in the group, and the Board would therefore like
to offer a new incentive program to ensure a long term commitment for the
current senior executives and key employees and to improve Niscayah Group's
possibilities for future recruitments. Utilizing shares in the company as an
essential instrument in the incentive program will encourage shareholding and
long-term increase of value in Niscayah Group. In the light of the above, the
Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting shall resolve on a
new long term performance based share program (”LTIP 2010”).

With regard to the Board of Directors proposal of LTIP 2010, and provided that
the Annual General Meeting resolves in accordance with the proposal, the Board
has decided to limit the participants' variable remuneration to an amount not
exceeding fifty (50) percent of the fixed annual salary. The Board of Directors
intends to propose a performance based share program in accordance with the
currently proposed principles before the Annual General Meeting 2011. 

Introduction of LTIP 2010
Approximately 20 senior executives and key employees will be offered to
participate in LTIP 2010. The duration of the program is approximately three
years. Senior executives and key employees who participates in LTIP 2010 will
get the opportunity to acquire shares by private funding in Niscayah Group
(“Investment Shares”) at market price on NASDAQ OMX Stockholm. Acquisition of
Investment Shares shall take place not later than the 20 May 2010, with a right
of the Board of Directors to prolong this period. Existing shareholdings in
Niscayah Group will also be viewed as investment in Investment Shares. Each
participant may only count a maximum number of Investment Shares towards LTIP
2010, such amount not exceeding a value of 10 - 25 percent (depending on the
participant's position) of the participant's fixed annual salary for 2010,
divided by the closing price of one B-share in Niscayah Group on NASDAQ OMX
Stockholm on 1 March 2010. 
   
Provided that the participant (i) holds the Investment Shares during a minimum
period of three years from the acquisition date, however including the day of
the disclosure of the first quarterly report for 2013 (the “Investment Period”),
and (ii) is still employed or has a similar employment in Niscayah Group during
the entire Investment Period, unless the Board of Directors is of the view that
this requirement may be waived in a specific case, each Investment Share will
thereafter entitle to allotment of maximum three performance based B-shares in
Niscayah Group (“Performance Shares”), free of charge. 

The number of Performance Shares to be allotted for each Investment Share will
be based on clearly measurable, performance based targets for Niscayah Group's
earnings per share (”EPS”) for the financial year 2010 compared to the financial
year 2009. A prerequisite for allotment of Performance Shares, is that the
minimum level of Niscayah Group's EPS for fiscal year 2010, set by the Board of
Directors, is achieved. A maximum outcome of LTIP 2010, which would lead to
allotment of three (3) Performance Shares per Investment Share, requires that
Niscayah Group's EPS for 2010 will increase by the Board's determined maximum
level compared to Niscayah Group's EPS for the financial year 2009. Performance
Shares shall be awarded within 30 days after the end of the Investment Period. 

The Board of Directors shall have the possibility to decide on a reduction of
the allotment of Performance Shares if the Board of Directors are of the view
that an allotment according to the above terms is unreasonable at an objective
assessment. The Board of Directors shall be responsible for the more detailed
framing and handling of LTIP 2010 within the scope of the main principles as
proposed to the Annual General Meeting and shall also be entitled to make such
minor adjustments of these principles that may be required due to legal or
administrative conditions.

Costs for LTIP 2010 and impact on key ratios
LTIP 2010 may cause increased personnel costs, partly in the form of IFRS 2-
Share based allowances, partly in the form of social security contributions.
These costs are estimated, based on the closing price of one B-share in Niscayah
Group at 23 March 2010 of SEK 15.60, and the following material assumptions of
an annual share price increase of 10 percent, an annual staff turnover of 10
percent, a rate of outgoing social security contributions of 25 percent and a 50
percent fulfilment of the performance related targets of the Performance Shares,
to approximately SEK 9 million, including SEK 2 million in social security
contributions. The costs for LTIP 2010, calculated on a pro forma basis for
2009, gives a negative impact of approximately 0.04 percentage points for
Niscayah Group's operating margin and a reduction in earnings per share of
approximately SEK 0.01. According to LTIP 2010, a maximum number of 912 000
shares can be allotted to the participants free of charge, equivalent to
approximately 0.2 percent of the total outstanding shares of Niscayah Group. 

Hedging of costs for the program and delivery of shares under LTIP 2010
In order to hedge costs related to the program, the Board of Directors has
proposed an authorization for acquisition of treasury shares under item 16 on
the agenda. To ensure delivery of B-shares in Niscayah Group according to LTIP
2010, Niscayah Group intends to enter into an agreement with a third party,
whereby the third party in his own name shall acquire and transfer B-shares in
the company to the participants in accordance with LTIP 2010.  

Voting majority
The proposal of the Board of Directors regarding LTIP 2010 shall be supported by
shareholders representing at least half of the votes cast at the Meeting in
order to be valid. 


Proposal for resolution regarding authorization of the Board of Directors to
resolve on acquisition and transfer of treasury shares (item 16 on the agenda) 
In order to enable Niscayah Group to adjust its capital structure and to enable
financing of company acquisitions, and to hedge costs, including costs for
social security contributions, in connection with the introduction of the
performance based share program according to item 15 on the agenda, the Board of
Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves to authorize the
Board of Directors to, on one or more occasions and during the period until the
next Annual General Meeting, resolve on acquisitions and transfers of treasury
shares. The company's acquisition of treasury shares may not exceed 10 percent
of the total number of shares in Niscayah Group from time to time. Acquisition
of shares shall take place on NASDAQ OMX Stockholm at a price within the price
interval at any given time, such price interval being the interval between the
highest purchase price and the lowest sales price at the time of transfer.
Transfer of shares may be made with deviation from the shareholders'
preferential rights of the maximum number of shares held by Niscayah Group at
the time of the resolution by the Board of Directors. Transfer of shares may
take place as payment of whole or part of the purchase price in connection with
acquisition of a company or business or part of a company or business and the
consideration shall be equal to the assessed market value of the share. On such
transfer, payment may be made by assets contributed in kind or by set-off of a
claim against Niscayah Group. Transfer of shares may also take place by sale on
NASDAQ OMX Stockholm at a price within the price interval registered at any
given time, such price interval being the interval between the highest purchase
price and the lowest sales price at the time of transfer. The Board of Directors
shall be entitled to determine other terms of an acquisition or transfer in
accordance with market conditions.

Voting majority
The resolution of the Annual General Meeting on the authorization of the Board
of Directors to resolve on acquisition and transfer of treasury shares shall be
supported by shareholders representing at least two thirds of both the number of
votes cast and the shares represented at the AGM in order to be valid.
