Annual Shareholders' Meeting
According to the Swedish Companies Act (2005:551) (Sw. aktiebolagslagen), the annual shareholders' meeting is the Company’s ultimate decision-making body.
At the annual shareholders' meeting, the shareholders exercise their voting rights in key issues, such as the adoption of income statements and balance sheets, appropriation of the Company’s results, discharge from liability of members of the board of directors and the CEO, election of members of the board of directors and auditors and remuneration to the board of directors and the auditors.
The annual shareholders' meeting must be held within six months from the end of the financial year. In addition to the annual shareholders’ meeting, extraordinary shareholders’ meetings may be convened. According to the articles of association, shareholders’ meetings are convened by publication of the convening notice in the Swedish National Gazette (Sw. Post- och Inrikes Tidningar) and on the Company’s website. At the time of the notice convening the meeting, information regarding the notice shall be published in Svenska Dagbladet. The Board of Directors can also decide that shareholders may vote their shares by post in advance of the shareholders’ meeting. When the meeting is convened, details regarding the form of the meeting is provided, as well as regarding the means and timing of notification to the company of a shareholders’ intent to participate in the meeting.

In order to be included in the notice convening the shareholders’ meeting and the agenda of the shareholders’ meeting, proposals have to be received by the Board of Directors and the Nomination Committee, respectively, no later than seven weeks before the annual shareholders’ meeting (or in time for the matter to be included in the notice convening the shareholders’ meeting). Proposals for resolutions in matters already included on the agenda of the meeting must have been received by the Board of Directors in writing no later than three weeks before the meeting. However, as regards matters for which a proposal does not have to, under law or the articles of association, be submitted a certain time in advance, each shareholder has the right to submit such proposal during the period up until the shareholders’ meeting.
It follows from the agenda for the meeting what matters that constitute elections or that require resolutions, and what items that are included for information purposes. In respect of items constituting elections, the meeting elects the person or persons who receive the most votes. Items on the agenda that require a resolution by the meeting are subject to a binding vote whereby the shareholders vote in favor or against or abstain from voting in the matter.
