The executive management consists of the CEO and other members of the executive
management group. The Remuneration Committee, which consists of the Board apart
from the CEO, draws up proposals for the establishment of guidelines for
remuneration and other terms of employment for the executive management.
The Board's proposed guidelines for remuneration and other terms of employment
for the executive management for the period until the end of the next annual
general meeting consists of the following main points:
Remuneration is to be at a market level and competitive and to take into account
the areas of responsibility and experience. The basic salary is to be subject to
annual review. Variable salary shall be linked to predetermined and measurable
criteria, designed with the intention of promoting the long-term creation of
value in the Company. For the CEO no variable salary is payable and for other
members of the executive management at most three months basic salary per year.
Pension premiums for the executive management may amount to at most 35 per cent
of the basic salary and the pension age is 65.
The period of notice for members of the executive management is twelve months if
notice is given by the Company and six months if given by the executive
management. No severance pay is payable.
Benefits in addition to salary, variable salary and pension for all members of
the executive management are a company car, health insurance, a subsistence
allowance, and a share in Klövern's profit-sharing foundation.
The Board shall, as provided for in Chapter 8, section 53, of the Companies Act,
have the right to depart from these principles if there is reason for so doing
in individual cases.
Nominations Committee, item 15
The Nominations Committee's proposes that the principles for the composition of
the Nominations Committee be unchanged. These comply with those adopted at the
2011 Annual General Meeting. These principles are available on Klövern's
website, klovern.se.
Authorization for the Board to acquire and transfer the Company's own shares,
item 16
The Board proposes that the Annual General Meeting decide to authorize the
Board, at the longest until the next Annual General Meeting, to acquire and
transfer Klövern's own shares as follows;
Acquisition may take place of at most the number of common and preference shares
so that the Group's total shareholding of its own common and preference shares
after acquisition corresponds to at most 10 per cent of all registered common
and preference shares issued by the Company. Transfer shall be able to take
place by trading on the regulated market place NASDAQ OMX Stockholm. Payment for
transferred shares shall be made in cash.
All Klövern shares held by the Company on the date of the Board's decision may
be transferred by trading at NASDAQ OMX Stockholm or through a third party in
connection with property or company acquisition. Compensation for transferred
shares may be paid in cash, in kind, by set-off of a claim on the Company, or
otherwise with conditions attached.
Purchase and sale of shares may take place on one or more occasions, during the
period until the next Annual General Meeting, at a price per share that is
within the price range registered from time to time.
The Board's proposal for authorization is intended to provide the Board with
greater possibilities to adapt the capital structure of the Company to the
capital requirement from time to time and thus be able to contribute to
increased shareholder value. The number of repurchased shares, at the time of
this notice, is 5,884,999 corresponding to 3.3 per cent of the total number of
registered shares. The repurchased shares consist of 5,741,463 common shares and
143,536 preference shares, which may not be represented at the Annual General
Meeting.
Authorization for the Board to decide on a new issue, item 17
The Board proposes that the Annual General Meeting decide to authorize the
Board, on one or more occasions, during the period until the end of the next
Annual General Meeting, to decide on a new issue of common and/or preference
shares with or without departure from the shareholders' preferential rights.
The number of shares issued pursuant to this authorization shall correspond to
an increase in the share capital of at most 10 per cent based on the total share
capital of the Company at the time of the 2012 Annual General Meeting. The
number of common shares that may be issued pursuant to the authorization may,
however, amount to at most 10 per cent of the share capital consisting of common
shares issued on the date of the 2012 Annual General Meeting and the number of
preference shares which may be issued pursuant to the authorization may amount
to at most 10 per cent of the share capital consisting of preference shares
issued at the time of the 2012 Annual General Meeting.
Shares may be subscribed to in cash, by payment in kind, through a set-off, or
on conditions following on from Chapter 2, section 5, of the Companies Act.
A new issue decided upon pursuant to the authorization shall take place with the
intention of acquiring properties or participation shares in legal entities that
own properties or with a view to capitalizing the Company prior to such
acquisitions. A new issue pursuant to the authorization that takes place
deviating from the shareholders' preferential rights shall take place at the
market subscription price. In the event of company issues, an issue discount may
be granted on market terms.
Authorization for the Board to make minor adjustments of the decisions, item 18
The Board proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorize the Board, the CEO
or the person otherwise designated by the Board, to undertake such minor
adjustments and clarifications of the decisions made at the Annual General
Meeting, to the extent requisite for registration of the decisions.
Any other business
Shareholders have the right, pursuant to Chapter 7, section 32, of the Companies
Act, to request information about circumstances that may affect the assessment
of an item of business on the agenda and about circumstances that may affect the
assessment of the Company's financial situation. The Board and the CEO shall
provide information if the Board considers that this can be done without
significant damage to the Company. The duty of disclosure also applies to the
Company's relationships with other companies in the group, the consolidated
financial statements and such circumstances as detailed above applicable to
subsidiaries.

Meeting on the items of business and proposals to be considered at the Annual
