The Board recommends that the guidelines from last year remain unchanged:

Remuneration of the Company's senior executives, that is the President and Group Management, shall consist of a fixed salary, variable salary, other benefits, and pension. Total remuneration is to be competitive and adjusted to market conditions, as well as being proportionate to responsibilities and authority.

The aggregate salary is to consist of a fixed annual base salary and a variable annual salary based on the Group's earnings and on other targets set in advance and individual performance. The variable salary shall be capped and shall never exceed 50% of the fixed base salary. No earnings-based pay shall be paid if the Group's earnings are negative. The variable salary shall not be pensionable.

Pension benefits offered are to be defined-contribution, with premiums not exceeding 35% of the fixed annual salary. The notice period shall be six months in the event the executive resigns and 12 months if the executive is dismissed by the Company. In the event of resignation or dismissal, a maximum of one year's fixed salary may be paid as severance pay, though with full deduction for any remuneration the executive may obtain from another employer or contractor.

Agreements already concluded on terms at variance with this shall continue to be in effect until they expire or are renegotiated. It is furthermore proposed that the Board be authorised to waive these guidelines, if in an individual case there is particular reason for doing so.

The Company's annual accounts and auditors' report, the Nomination Committee's written report of its work since the previous Annual General Shareholders' Meeting, and the Board's and Nomination Committee's complete motions in accordance with what is stated above, as well as proxy forms for shareholders who wish to send a representative in their place, will be available from the Company two weeks before the Meeting and on the Company website (www.sasgroup.net/Investor Relations/Corporate Governance/Shareholders Meeting).
