Approval of the procedure of the Nomination Committee (item 17)

The Nomination Committee proposes that the work of preparing proposals to the 2017 Annual General Meeting regarding the Board and auditor, in the case that an auditor should be elected, and their remuneration, Chairman of the Annual General Meeting and the procedure for the Nomination Committee shall be performed by a Nomination Committee.

The Nomination Committee will be formed during September 2016 in consultation with the largest shareholders of the company as per 31 August 2016. The Nomination Committee will consist of at least three members appointed by the largest shareholders of the company who have wished to appoint a member. Cristina Stenbeck will be a member of the Committee and will also act as its convener. The members of the Committee will appoint the Committee Chairman at their first meeting.

The Nomination Committee is appointed for a term of office commencing at the time of its formation in September 2016 and ending when a new Nomination Committee is formed. If a member resigns during the Committee term, the Nomination Committee may choose to appoint a new member. The shareholder that appointed the resigning member shall in such case be asked to appoint a new member, provided that the shareholder still is one of the largest shareholders in the company. If that shareholder declines participation on the Nomination Committee, the Committee may choose to ask the next largest shareholder to participate. In the event of changes to the ownership structure of the company, the Committee may choose to amend its composition in order to ensure that the Committee appropriately reflects the ownership of the company. However, unless there are special circumstances, the composition of the Nomination Committee may remain unchanged following changes in the ownership structure of the company that are either minor or occur less than three months prior to the 2017 Annual General Meeting.

The Nomination Committee shall have the right to upon request receive personnel resources such as secretarial services from the company, and to charge the company with costs for recruitment consultants and related travel if deemed necessary.

Information with respect to the election of auditor

The registered accounting firm Deloitte AB was elected auditor at the 2013 Annual General Meeting for a term of office of four years. Accordingly, the task of appointing an auditor is scheduled to occur at the 2017 Annual General Meeting. Deloitte AB has appointed the authorised public accountant Jan Berntsson as auditor-in-charge.

RESOLUTIONS PROPOSED BY THE BOARD

Dividend (item 11)

The Board proposes a dividend of SEK 7.75 per share and that the record date for dividend shall be on Friday 27 May 2016. If the Annual General Meeting resolves in accordance with the proposal, the dividend is estimated to be paid out to the shareholders on Wednesday 1 June 2016.

The last trading day in the Kinnevik share including the right to receive dividend will be Wednesday 25 May 2016, and the first trading day in the Kinnevik share not including a right to receive dividend will be Thursday 26 May 2016.

Combined with the proposed share redemption program (item 22(a)-(c)) under which SEK 18 per share will be repaid to the shareholders, Kinnevik's shareholders will receive SEK 25.75 per share.

Guidelines for remuneration for senior executives (item 18)

The Board proposes the following guidelines for remuneration to the Chief Executive Officer and the other persons in the executive management of Kinnevik (the "Senior Executives") as well as Members of the Board to the extent they are remunerated outside their Board duties.

The objectives of Kinnevik's remuneration guidelines are to offer competitive compensation to attract, motivate and retain key employees. The aim is to create incentives for the Senior Executives to execute strategic plans and deliver excellent operating results and to align their incentives with the interests of the shareholders. The intention is that all Senior Executives shall have a significant long-term shareholding in the company. Should Kinnevik establish operations, in the form of a co-investment vehicle or other similar structure, for the purpose of investing third-party capital, Kinnevik and Kinnevik professionals may receive compensation based on the result of such operations.

The remuneration to the Senior Executives shall consist of an annual fixed salary, short-term variable remuneration paid in cash, the possibility to participate in long-term share or share-price related incentive programmes, pension and other customary benefits. Kinnevik regularly carries out a remuneration benchmarking exercise to ensure that it is aware of the relevant benchmarks for key positions.

• The fixed salary is reviewed each year and based on the Senior Executive's competence, area of responsibility and market benchmarks.
• The short-term variable remuneration paid in cash (the "STI") shall be based on performance in relation to established targets. The targets shall be individual and measurable as well as linked to specific performances, processes and transactions. The STI can amount to a maximum of 100 percent of the fixed salary and a part of the STI shall be invested in Kinnevik shares.
• Should Kinnevik establish operations, in the form of a co-investment vehicle or other similar structure, Kinnevik professionals (including Senior Executives), subject to making a co-investment, may receive additional variable remuneration. Such remuneration will be a function of the amount of third-party capital raised and will be payable only if the returns generated on such third party capital exceed certain pre-determined minimum thresholds. The remuneration will be capped in relation to the return received by Kinnevik.
• The long-term share or share-price related incentive programmes (the "LTI") shall be linked to certain pre-determined financial and / or share or share-price related performance criteria and shall ensure a long-term commitment to the development of the company.
• Other benefits may include a company car, housing benefits for expatriated Senior Executives for a limited period of time, as well as other customary benefits. Other benefits shall not constitute a significant part of total remuneration. The Senior Executives may also be offered health care insurances.
• The Senior Executives are offered defined contribution pension solutions, with premiums amounting to a maximum of 30 percent of the fixed salary, these premiums are paid to insurance companies. Senior Executives that are non-Swedish residents may be offered, if it is approved by the Board, cash-based pension solutions corresponding to the premiums that otherwise would have been paid to insurance companies.
• In the event of notice of termination of employment being served by the company, the Chief Executive Officer is entitled to salary for a period of a maximum of 18 months and the other Senior Executives are entitled to salary for a period of a maximum of 12 months.

Board Members, elected at General Meetings, in certain cases may receive a fee for services performed within their respective areas of expertise, outside of their Board duties. Compensation for these services shall be paid at market terms and be approved by the Board.

In special circumstances, the Board may deviate from the above guidelines. In such case, the Board is obligated to give account for the appearance of, and the reason for, the deviation at the following Annual General Meeting.

For further information regarding the existing guidelines and remuneration for the Senior Executives in respect of 2015, please refer to the Group's 2015 Annual Report, note 23.

In accordance with the Swedish Corporate Governance Code the Remuneration Committee monitors and evaluates the application of the guidelines for remuneration to the Senior Executives established by the Annual General Meeting. In addition, the company's auditor, in accordance with the Swedish Companies Act Ch. 8 Sec. 54, has provided a statement with respect to whether there has been compliance with the guidelines for remuneration to the Senior Executives which have been applied during 2015. Both the Remuneration Committtee's evaluation and auditor's review have resulted in the conclusion that the guidelines adopted by the Annual General Meeting have been followed by Kinnevik during 2015.

Incentive plan (item 19)

The Board proposes a share-based incentive plan for all employees in Kinnevik ("LTI 2016") as follows.

Adoption of an incentive plan (item 19(a))

LTI 2016 in brief

The objective of LTI 2016 is to link an increasing share of the employees' remuneration to the long-term value growth of Kinnevik and the Kinnevik share and, thereby, align the employees' interests with those of shareholders. In addition, LTI 2016 will be an important program for Kinnevik to recruit, motivate and retain the best talent for Kinnevik; this is vital in order for Kinnevik to achieve long-term value-growth for the shareholders. LTI 2016 is based on the same structure as the share based incentive plans adopted during 2008-2013 and in 2015, however with a few revisions in order to increase the weight of the program and make the plan structure more attractive for the participants.

All employees in Kinnevik will be entitled to participate in LTI 2016. In order to participate employees will be required to invest in Kinnevik shares. Based on competence, area of responsibility and personal investment in Kinnevik shares, the participants will be granted rights to receive Kinnevik Class B shares, free of charge, subject to the terms and conditions of LTI 2016 (the "Share Awards"). If the participant after the release of Kinnevik's interim financial report for the period January-March 2019 (i) is still employed by Kinnevik or an associated company and (ii) has retained the Kinnevik shares, and if the performance-based conditions for the Share Awards during 1 April 2016 - 31 March 2019 (the "Measurement Period") have been reached, Kinnevik will award the participants Kinnevik Class B shares.

The maximum numbers of Kinnevik Class B shares that may vest under LTI 2016 will be limited to 500,000 (including compensation for paid dividends and other value transfers to the shareholders) representing approximately 0.18 percent of the outstanding shares and 0.08 percent of the outstanding votes.

Participants in LTI 2016

All employees in Kinnevik (maximum 40 persons) will be entitled to participate in LTI 2016.

Personal investment in Kinnevik shares

In order to participate in LTI 2016, the employees will be required to own Kinnevik shares and to allocate such shares to LTI 2016 (the "Investment Shares"). The Investment Shares may either be shares acquired for LTI 2016 or shares already held (which are not allocated to the 2014 or 2015 long-term incentive plans). If the participant has insider information and, therefore, is prevented from purchasing Kinnevik shares in connection with giving notice of participation in the LTI 2016, acquisition of shares shall take place as soon as possible but no later than prior to the 2017 Annual General Meeting.

Terms and conditions for the Share Awards

All Share Awards shall be governed by the following terms and conditions:

• Share Awards are granted free of charge after the 2016 Annual General Meeting and will vest after the release of Kinnevik's interim financial report for the period January-March 2019 (the "Vesting Period").
• One (1) Share Award entitles the participant to receive one (1) Kinnevik Class B share, as long as the participant (i) is employed by Kinnevik or an associated company and (ii) has retained the Investment Shares at the close of the Vesting Period, and as long as the relevant performance conditions for the Share Awards have been reached. Exceptions to the condition that the participant must be employed throughout the Vesting Period can be approved by the Board in certain cases, including, but not limited to, death, disability, retirement, divestiture by Kinnevik of the company in which the participant is employed, and if the participant's age (years) and term of employment (years) in aggregate exceed 60.
• Share Awards may not be transferred or pledged.
• In order to align the participants' and shareholders' interests Kinnevik will pay compensation for dividends and other value transfers to the shareholders by increasing the number of shares that each Share Award entitles the employee to receive.

The Share Awards are divided into Series A (the "Matching Share Awards") and Series B and C ("Performance Share Awards"). The number of shares that vest is based on the participant's competence and area of responsibility and on the level of fulfilment of the following defined performance conditions applicable for the Share Awards:

Series A              Kinnevik's total shareholder return on the Class B share (TSR) during the Measurement Period exceeding 0 percent as entry level.

Series B               Kinnevik's average annual total shareholder return on the Class B share (TSR) during the Measurement Period being 5 percent as entry level and 15 percent or higher as the stretch target.

Series C              Average annual net asset value development (inclusive of dividend payments, other value transfers to the shareholders and repurchase of own shares) during the Measurement Period being 5 percent as entry level and 15 percent or higher as the stretch target.

If the entry level is reached, the number of Share Awards that vest is 100 percent for Series A and 20 percent for Series B and C. If the stretch target is met for Series B or C all Share Awards shall vest in that series. Where the level of fulfilment for Share Awards of Series B or C is between the entry level and stretch target, vesting of the Share Awards for those series will occur on a linear basis. If the entry level is not reached for a certain series, all Share Awards in that series shall lapse.

Information about the outcome of LTI 2016 will be presented in the Annual Report for 2019.

Allocation

LTI 2016 is proposed to comprise up to 53,600 Investment Shares entitling employees to receive, in aggregate, up to 413,600 Share Awards, of which 53,600 are Matching Share Awards and 360,000 are Performance Share Awards (180,000 Performance Share Awards of Series B and C, respectively). In accordance with the above principles and assumptions, LTI 2016 in principle will comprise up to the following number of Investment Shares and Share Awards for different participants:

• the Chief Executive Officer of Kinnevik can allocate up to 5,000 Investment Shares. Each Investment Share entitles the Chief Executive to receive 1 Matching Share Award of Series A and 4.5 Performance Share Awards of Series B and C, respectively. In total 10 Share Awards for each Investment Share;
• approximately 4 employees in Kinnevik can allocate up to 3,000 Investment Shares each. Each Investment Share entitles these employees to receive 1 Matching Share Award of Series A and 3.5 Performance Share Awards of Series B and C, respectively. In total 8 Share Awards for each Investment Share;
• approximately 6 employees in Kinnevik can allocate up to 2,000 Investment Shares each. Each Investment Share entitles these employees to receive 1 Matching Share Award of Series A and 3.5 Performance Share Awards of Series B and C, respectively. In total 8 Share Awards for each Investment Share;
• approximately 8 employees in Kinnevik can allocate up to 1,500 Investment Shares each. Each Investment Share entitles these employees to receive 1 Matching Share Award of Series A and 3.5 Performance Share Awards of Series B and C, respectively. In total 8 Share Awards for each Investment Share;
• approximately 14 employees in Kinnevik can allocate up to 700 Investment Shares each. Each Investment Share entitles these employees to receive 1 Matching Share Award of Series A and 2.5 Performance Share Awards of Series B and C, respectively. In total 6 Share Awards for each Investment Share; and
• approximately 7 employees in Kinnevik can allocate up to 400 Investment Shares each. Each Investment Share entitles these employees to receive 1 Matching Share Award of Series A and 2.5 Performance Share Awards of Series B and C, respectively. In total 6 Share Awards for each Investment Share.

Scope, costs and effects on important key ratios

LTI 2016 will be accounted for in accordance with IFRS 2 which stipulates that the Share Awards are to be recorded as a personnel expense in the income statement during the Vesting Period. Based on the assumptions of a share price of SEK 230.30 (closing share price of the Kinnevik Class B share on 31 March 2016), a maximum participation, an annual employee turnover of 10 percent, an average fulfilment of performance conditions (Series B and C) of approximately 50 percent and full vesting of the Matching Share Awards (Series A), the cost for the Plan, excluding social security costs, is estimated to be approximately SEK 33.9 million. The cost will be allocated over the years 2016 - 2019.

The estimated social security costs will also be recorded as a personnel expense by current reservations. The social security costs are estimated at around SEK 10.8 million using the assumptions set out above, an average social security tax rate of approximately 20 percent and an annual share price increase of 10 percent on the Kinnevik Class B share during the Vesting Period.

Recalculation of final allotments of shares to the participants shall take place in the event of an intervening bonus issue, reversed split, split, rights issue and/or other similar events.

The participant's maximum profit per Share Award is limited to SEK 623 (including possible compensation that the participants receive for dividends paid to shareholders). This maximum profit corresponds to approximately three times the average closing share price of the Kinnevik Class B share during February 2016. If the value of the Kinnevik Class B share at vesting exceeds SEK 623, the number of shares each Share Award entitles the participant to receive will be reduced accordingly.

The maximum dilution is no more than 0.18 percent in terms of shares outstanding, 0.08 percent in terms of votes and 0.10 percent in terms of costs for LTI 2016 as defined in IFRS 2 in relation to Kinnevik's market capitalization.

If the maximum profit of SEK 623 per Share Award is reached, all Investment Shares retained and the fulfilment of the performance conditions is 100 percent, the maximum cost of LTI 2016 as defined in IFRS 2 is approximately SEK 62.5 million, and the maximum social security cost is approximately SEK 51.5 million.

The costs and dilution are expected to have only a marginal effect on key ratios of Kinnevik.

Preparation and administration

The Board, or the Remuneration Committee, shall be responsible for preparing the detailed terms and conditions of LTI 2016, in accordance with the terms and guidelines set out above. In connection therewith, the Board shall be entitled to make adjustments to meet foreign regulations or market conditions and, in connection with delivery of shares to participants, offer cash-settlement in order to cover the participant's taxation costs upon vesting. The Board also may make certain other adjustments, including deciding to reduce the allotment of shares for all employees, or for certain categories of employees, covered by the LTI 2016, if material changes occur within the Kinnevik or in the market that, in the Board's assessment, mean that the terms and conditions for the allotment of shares under LTI 2016 no longer fulfil the main objectives of LTI 2016.

Delivery of shares to the participants under LTI 2016

To secure the undertakings to deliver shares to the participants the Board proposes that the Board is authorised to resolve on a directed issue of Class C shares, and immediately following the issue repurchase the Class C shares in accordance with item 19(b) and (c) or as an alternative repurchase Class B-shares in accordance with item 20. Any repurchased Class C shares will be reclassified into Class B shares.

Delivery of Kinnevik shares, subject to the terms and conditions of LTI 2016, will be made by transfer, free-of-charge, of Class B shares to the participants during 2019 in accordance with item 19(d).

Preparation of the proposal

Kinnevik's Remuneration Committee has prepared LTI 2016 in consultation with external advisors and major shareholders. LTI 2016 has been reviewed at meetings of the Board during the end of 2015 and the first months of 2016.

Information regarding other incentive programmes in Kinnevik

Please refer to the 2015 Annual Report, note 23, and the company's website www.kinnevik.com, for information regarding Kinnevik's on-going share or share price-related incentive programmes.

Authorisation for the Board to resolve on a new issue of Class C shares (item 19(b))

The Board proposes that, during the period until the next Annual General Meeting, the Board shall be authorised to increase the company's share capital by not more than SEK 37,025 by a new issue of not more than 370,250 Class C shares, each with a quota value of SEK 0.10. With deviation of the shareholders' preferential rights, Nordea Bank AB (publ) shall be entitled to subscribe for the new Class C shares at a subscription price corresponding to the quota value that shall be paid in cash.

The purpose of the authorisation and the reason for deviating from the shareholders' preferential rights is to ensure delivery of shares to participants in LTI 2016.

Authorisation for the Board to resolve to repurchase Class C shares (item 19(c))

The Board proposes that during the period until the next Annual General Meeting the Board shall be authorised to repurchase Class C shares. The repurchase may only be effected through an offer directed to all holders of Class C shares in Kinnevik. The repurchase may be effected at a purchase price corresponding to not less than SEK 0.10 and not more than SEK 0.11. Payment for the repurchased Class C shares shall be made in cash.

The purpose of the repurchase is to ensure the delivery of shares to the participants in LTI 2016.

Transfer of own Class B shares (item 19(d))

The Board proposes that up to 500,000 Class B shares, including compensation for dividends and other value transfers, held by Kinnevik may be transferred free of charge to the participants, subject to the terms and conditions of LTI 2016.

The number of shares that may be transferred to the participants shall be subject to recalculation in the event of an intervening bonus issue, reversed split, split, rights issue and/or other similar events.

Authorisation for the Board to resolve on repurchase of own shares (item 20)

The Board proposes that the Board is authorised to pass a resolution on repurchasing the company's own shares if the purpose is to cancel shares through a reduction of the share capital, but also to secure delivery of Class B shares to the participants in the company's long-term share or shareprice related incentive plans, in accordance with the following conditions:

• The repurchase of Class A shares and/or Class B shares shall take place on the Nasdaq Stockholm following the rules set out by Nasdaq Stockholm regarding re-purchase of own shares.
• The repurchase of Class A shares and/or Class B shares may take place on one or more occasions during the period up until the next Annual General Meeting.
• So many Class A shares and/or Class B shares may, at the most, be repurchased so that the company's holding does not at any time exceed 10 percent of the total number of shares in the company.
• The repurchase of Class A shares and/or Class B shares at the Nasdaq Stockholm may occur at a price per share within the share price interval registered at that time, where the share price interval means the difference between the highest buying price and the lowest selling price.
• It is the from time to time lowest-priced available shares that shall be repurchased by the company.
• Payment for the shares shall be in cash.

The purpose of the authorisation is to give the Board more options in its efforts to deliver long-term shareholder value and total return as well as alternatives to hedge delivery under share or shareprice related incentive plans.

Reduction of the share capital by way of cancellation of repurchased shares (item 21)

The Board proposes that the company's share capital shall be reduced by SEK 230,155.20 by cancellation of 2,301,552 Class B shares, which were repurchased under the company's SEK 500m share repurchase program between 15 February 2016 and 23 March 2016 with the purpose to reduce the share capital of Kinnevik.

The reduction amount should be reserved to non-restricted equity.

The reduction of the share capital by way of cancellation of repurchased shares will be effectuated after the share redemption program in item 22.

Share redemption program (item 22)

In order to optimize the capital structure, the Board of Directors proposes a share redemption program through which SEK 18 per each existing share in Kinnevik (approximately SEK 5 billion) will be paid out to the shareholders.

An information brochure regarding the share redemption program will be held available at the company's website at www.kinnevik.com from 9 May 2016.

Share split 2:1 (item 22(a))

The Board of Directors proposes a share split, meaning that one (1) existing share is split into two (2) shares, whereof one is a so-called redemption share. Each existing Class A share is split into two new Class A shares, and each existing Class B share is split into two new Class B shares. After the share split the share capital of the company will amount to 27,776,819, with 555,536,380 shares. The quota value of each share after the share split will be SEK 0.05.

The Board of Directors is authorised to set the record date for the share split, which, at the time the notice is issued, is estimated to be Monday 30 May 2016. Based on the estimated record date for the share split the last trading day in the Kinnevik share including a right to receive redemption shares will be Thursday 26 May 2016, and the first trading day in the Kinnevik share not including a right to receive redemption shares will be Friday 27 May 2016.

Reduction of the share capital through redemption of shares (item 22(b))

The Board of Directors proposes that the share capital is to be reduced:

1. for repayment to the shareholders with a maximum of SEK 13,756,959.05 through cancellation of a maximum of 275,139,181 shares. The shares to be redeemed shall be the shares that after the completed share split in accordance with the above are classified as redemption shares of Class A and B.

The terms of the redemption and repayment to the shareholders shall be as follows:

1. payment for each redemption share of Class A and B (with exception for redemption shares held in treasury as set out under (ii) below) shall be made with SEK 18 (whereof SEK 17.95 exceeds the quota value of the share). The repayment to the shareholders in total (the redemption amount) thereby amounts to a maximum of SEK 4,952,505,258;
2. trading in redemption shares of Class A and B is estimated to take place during the time from and including Tuesday 31 May 2016 to and including Monday 13 June 2016, based on the estimated record date for the share split; and
3. the Board of Directors is authorised to set the record date for the right to obtain the redemption amount, which, at the time of this notice, is estimated to be Wednesday 15 June 2016.
