13. Decision on Nomination Committee
The Nomination Committee proposes that the meeting adopts the following principles for the appointment of the nomination committee.

The chairman should be instructed to contact the three biggest shareholders or shareholder groups in terms of votes, according to Euroclear Sweden AB's printout of the share register on 31 January 2019, and request them each to appoint one representative to serve on the nominating committee. In the event that any of the three biggest shareholders or shareholder groups has no wish to appoint such a representative, the fourth biggest shareholder or shareholder group shall be requested, and so on, until the nominating committee comprises three members. The chairman shall then convene the first meeting of the nominating committee.

The member representing the biggest shareholder shall be appointed as the chairman of the nominating committee. If a member resigns from the nominating committee before his/her work is complete, a replacement representing the same shareholder shall take the member's place, if the committee judges this appropriate. If this shareholder is no longer ranked as one of the three biggest shareholders, a replacement representing the next biggest shareholder shall take the shareholder's place. In the event that ownership circumstances otherwise change materially before the work of the nominating committee is complete, the composition of the nominating committee may be adjusted in a way that the nominating committee sees fit. Any change in the composition of the nominating committee shall be made public without delay.

No remuneration shall be paid to the members of the nominating committee. The Company shall bear any costs incurred through the work of the nominating committee. The mandate period for the nominating committee shall extend until the composition of the next nominating committee is announced.

The composition of the nominating committee shall be announced no later than six months before the 2019 AGM.

The nominating committee shall present proposals concerning the following issues for resolution at the 2019 AGM:

1. proposal for chairman for Annual General Meeting 2019
2. proposal for number of members of the Board of Directors
3. proposal for Board fees, with respective allocations to Chairman and other Board members
4. proposal for fee to the Company's auditors
5. proposal for Board of Directors and Chairman
6. proposal for auditor
7. proposal for rules for nominating committee to serve until the 2020 AGM

14. Board's proposal for guidelines on remuneration and other terms of employment for senior executives
Remuneration to senior executives shall - based on the conditions in the market in which the Company operates and the environment in which the particular executive works - be competitive, enable the recruitment of new executives and motivate senior executives to remain with the Company.

The system of remuneration shall consist of a fixed salary and pension, but may also include variable salary and benefits such as a company car. In addition to the above, special incentive programmes approved by the AGM may apply. Fixed salary and benefits shall be determined individually based on the aforementioned criteria and the specific competence of the particular executive. Variable remuneration shall be based on results judged according to personal, clearly defined and measurable qualitative and quantitative goals. The variable salary will be paid as a proportion of the fixed salary and may equal no more than 40 percent of the total salary for the CEO and 25 percent for the group management. As a rule, pensions shall be paid through defined contribution plans. The size of the pension shall adhere to the same criteria as above and be based on fixed salary. The Board is entitled to depart from these guidelines if justified in any particular case.

15. Authorisation for the Board to approve the issue of new shares
The Board proposes that the AGM resolve to authorise the Board, on one or more occasions during the period until the next AGM, with or without deviation from the preferential rights of the shareholders, to decide to increase the Company's share capital by issuing new shares. On the basis of that authorisation, the Company may issue new shares equal to no more than ten percent of the number of shares in the Company in issue at the time of the 2018 AGM. Any such issue shall be made on market conditions, with the right reserved to offer an issue discount where appropriate. The authorisation shall include the right to approve a share issue with cash payment, non-cash payment, or via offsetting. The purpose of the authorisation, and the reason for possible deviation from the preferential rights of shares, is to enable company acquisitions to be financed.

In order for the AGM's decision to be valid, the proposal must be supported by shareholders representing no less than two thirds of the votes cast and the shares represented at the meeting.

Available documents and details of the number of shares outstanding in the Company
The annual report and audit report, auditor's statement on compliance with the guidelines on remuneration to senior executives in force since the preceding AGM, the full text of the Board's proposed resolutions as above and other documents as required by the Swedish Companies Act will be made available to shareholders at the Company offices and on the Company's website at group.systemair com no later than from Thursday, 9 August 2018, inclusive. The documents will be sent free of charge to any shareholders who request to receive them and provide their postal address. They will also be available at the AGM.
At the time of issue of this invitation, there are a total of 52,000,000 shares and votes in the Company. The Company does not hold any of its own shares in treasury.

Disclosures at the AGM
The Board of Directors and CEO shall - if any shareholder so requests and the Board considers the request may be met without significant damage to the Company - at the AGM disclose information about circumstances that may affect the judgement of an item on the agenda, circumstances that may affect judgement of the financial situation of the Company or a subsidiary and the Company's relationship with another Group company.
