Proposals by the Board of Directors

Dividend (item 10)

The Board of Directors proposes that the AGM shall resolve not to distribute any dividends for the financial year 2018.

Resolution in respect of guidelines for remuneration of senior management (item 16)

The Board of Directors proposes that the AGM decides on guidelines for remuneration and other terms of employment for senior executives according to the following.

The Company's starting point is that salary and other terms and conditions shall enable the group to attract and retain qualified management persons at a reasonable cost for the Company. The remuneration for management persons shall be decided in accordance with IRRAS remuneration policy. The remuneration for management persons consist of fixed salary, variable remuneration, pension and other benefits. In order to avoid that the management persons take unnecessary risks there shall be a fundamental balance between fixed and variable remuneration. Furthermore, the annual general meeting in IRRAS may, if so is ordered, offer long-term incentive schemes such as share or share price related incentive schemes.

Each management person shall be offered a market level fixed salary based on the degree of difficulty, responsibilities, experience and performance. In addition, each management person may from time to time, be offered a variable remuneration (bonus) to be paid in cash. The variable remuneration shall be based on clear predetermined and measurable performance criteria and economic results, as well as predetermined individual objectives and business objectives, and shall also be designed to promote IRRAS long-term value creation. Variable remuneration may not exceed 12 months' fixed salary.

Management persons shall be offered pension terms that are in accordance with market practice in the country where the management persons habitually resides. Non-monetary benefits shall facilitate the work of the management persons and shall correspond to what is considered reasonable in relation to market practice. The fixed salary during the notice period shall, together with severance pay, not exceed 24 months' fixed salary. Insofar board members who are elected by the General Meeting carry out work in addition to work on the Board of Directors, it shall be possible to remunerate them for such work. The remuneration shall be in accordance with market terms and shall be approved by the Board of Directors.

The Board of Directors shall, before every Annual General Meeting, consider whether or not additional share or share price-related incentive schemes shall be proposed to the General Meeting. It is the General Meeting that resolves upon such incentive schemes. Incentive schemes shall promote long-term value growth. New share issues and transfers of securities resolved upon by the general meeting in accordance with the rules of Chapter 16 of the Swedish Companies Act are not covered by the guidelines to the extent the Annual General Meeting has taken, or will take, such decisions.

The Board of Directors shall be entitled to deviate from the guidelines in individual cases if there are special reasons for doing so.

Resolution in respect of authorization for the Board of Directors to resolve to issue of shares and/or convertible bonds (item 17)

The Board of Directors proposes that the AGM authorizes the Board of Directors to, on one or several occasions during the period until the next AGM, with or without deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, resolve on share issues and/or issues of convertible bonds.

The purpose of the authorization and the reason for the deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, if any, is to enable the Company to carry out issues of shares and/or convertible bonds in a time-efficient way to finance acquisitions or investments in new or existing businesses. The issuance of shares or convertible bonds under the authorisation shall, in case of deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, be made at a subscription price according to the prevailing market conditions at the time of the issuance of the shares and/or convertible bonds. Payment for subscribed shares and/or convertible bonds shall be made in cash, in kind or by way of set-off.

The Board of Directors' complete proposal will be available as set out in section "Documents" below no later than on 23 April 2019.

A valid resolution by the General Meeting pursuant to the proposal above requires that the resolution be supported by shareholders representing at least two-thirds of both the votes cast and the shares represented at the General Meeting.
