Remuneration principles

Principles for compensation and other terms of employment for the CEO and other key executives are that the total compensation is according to market conditions and is a mix of salary, pension benefits or other benefits as well as terms for notice. All of the abovementioned personnel participate in the employee option program. The Board proposes that the same guidelines should be in force the fiscal year 2009/2010, as those adopted at the 2008 annual meeting, aside from the bonus program that was adopted at that time. The fiscal year 2009/2010 there will be no bonus program; it will be replaced with an option program. These proposals are for the year, and they are subject to approval at the annual meeting.
