10. Number of Board members
The nominating committee proposes that during the next mandate period the Board shall consist of six regular members elected by the AGM and no deputies.

11. Resolution on fees to the Board and auditor.
The Nomination Committee proposes that the remuneration of the Board of Directors shall be SEK 750,000 (600,000) to the Chairman of the Board, SEK 500,000 to the Vice Chairman and SEK 315,000 (300,000) to each of the other members elected by the AGM.

Gerald Engström is proposed for re-election as Chairman of the Board. It is proposed that Patrik Nolåker be elected to serve as Vice-Chairman of the Board, which is a new role on the Board.

Niklas Engström was born in 1978 and holds a degree in Economics with an international focus from Stockholm University. Niklas is currently CEO of RVM Systems. Niklas has previously worked for Systemair as an export sales representative, subsidiary manager and Director of Business Development. Niklas is the son of Gerald Engström, who is Systemair's main shareholder through the company Färna Invest AB, which controls 42.82 percent of the shares in Systemair. Niklas is therefore not considered independent of the Company's largest shareholders. Niklas holds 1,621 own shares in the Company.

In accordance with the recommendation of the Audit Committee, It is proposed that Ernst & Young AB, auditors, be re-elected as the Company’s auditor for a period of one year. Ernst & Young intends to appoint Authorised Public Accountant Johan Holmberg as auditor in charge.

13. Resolution on nominating committee.
The Nomination Committee proposes that the Annual General Meeting adopt the following principles for the appointment of the Nomination Committee, to apply until further notice.

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 of the current year, 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 nomination committee appoints a chairman from among its members. 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 AGM.

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

a)   proposal for chairman for Annual General Meeting

b)   proposal for number of members of the Board of Directors,

c)   proposal for Board fees, with respective allocations to Chairman and other Board members,

d)   proposal for fee to the Company’s auditors,

e)   proposal for Board of Directors and Chairman, and

f)   proposal for auditor

The Nomination Committee shall annually evaluate these instructions and principles for the appointment of the Nomination Committee and, if necessary, propose changes thereto to the Annual General Meeting. The Nomination Committee shall otherwise perform the duties incumbent on the Nomination Committee under the Swedish Code of Corporate Governance.

14. Decision on the approval of the remuneration report
The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting approves the Board of Directors' report on remuneration pursuant to Chapter 8. Section 53a of the Companies Act for the financial year 2020/21.

15. The Board’s proposal for guidelines on remuneration and other terms of employment for senior executives.
The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves on the following guidelines for the determination of salary and other remuneration to senior executives. The guidelines are applicable to remuneration agreed, and amendments to remuneration already agreed, after the proposed adoption of these guidelines by the 2021 annual general meeting. The guidelines do not cover remuneration decided by the General Meeting.

For information on the company's business strategy, see the company's website: group.systemair.com.

The ability to recruit and retain qualified employees is essential for successful implementation of the company's business strategy and the safeguarding of its long-term interests, including its sustainability. 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 help to ensure that senior executives remain with the Company. “Senior executives” refers to the President and other members of Group Management.

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 pay is based on the company's performance with the aim of promoting the company's strategy, long-term value creation and sustainability. Compliance with the criteria for the payment of variable cash compensation must be measurable over a period of one year. The variable portion is paid as a proportion of the fixed salary and may amount to no more than 40 percent of the annual salary for the Chief Executive Officer and 25 percent for other senior executives.

As a principle, pensions shall be premium-based and shall not exceed 35 percent of the fixed annual salary. The size of the pension shall adhere to the same criteria as above and shall be based on the fixed annual salary.

Other benefits may include, but are not limited to, health care, life insurance, medical insurance and car benefits. The total amount of such benefits may not exceed 10% of the fixed annual salary.

Notice of termination and severance payments

The President’s employment may be terminated with 12 months’ notice by the Company or six months’ notice by the President. For other senior executives, the period of notice is as stated in the applicable collective bargaining agreement or is no more than 12 months from the Company or six months from the employee. No other agreements entitle the President or other senior executives to severance pay.

Salary and terms of employment for employees

In preparing the Board's proposal for these remuneration guidelines, the remuneration and employment conditions of the Company's employees have been taken into account by including data on the total remuneration of employees, the components of remuneration and the increase and rate of increase of remuneration over time as part of the Board's decision-making basis when evaluating the appropriateness of the guidelines and the limitations resulting from them.

Decision-making process for establishing, reviewing and implementing the guidelines

The Board has established a remuneration committee. The committee's tasks include presenting proposals for guidelines for remuneration to senior executives. The Board shall draw up proposals for new guidelines at least every four years and submit the proposal to be resolved at the Annual General Meeting. The guidelines shall remain in force until new guidelines are adopted by the General Meeting. The Board shall also monitor and assess programmes for variable remuneration to senior management, compliance with guidelines on remuneration to senior executives, and current structures and levels of remuneration in the Company. The CEO and other members of the executive management do not participate in the Board of Directors’ processing of and resolutions regarding remuneration-related matters in so far as they are affected by such matters.

Share-based and share-price-based incentive programmes

Share-based and share-price-based incentive programmes shall be submitted to the AGM for approval.

Derogation from the guidelines

The Board of directors may temporarily resolve to derogate from the guidelines, in whole or in part, if in a specific case there is special cause for the derogation and a derogation is necessary to serve the company’s long-term interests, including its sustainability, or to ensure the company’s financial viability. As stated above, the Remuneration Committee's tasks include preparing the Board's decisions on remuneration issues, including decisions on derogation from the guidelines.

Shareholders' views and significant changes in the guidelines

The proposed guidelines to be presented at the 2021 AGM do not entail any material changes to the company's existing remuneration guidelines, other than certain clarifications. The Company has not received any comments from shareholders on the existing guidelines for the remuneration of senior executives.

16. Resolution on a) amendment of the Articles of Association and b) division of shares (so-called share split)

In order to facilitate trading in the company's listed shares on Nasdaq Stockholm, the Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves as follows.

d)   Amendment of the Articles of Association

In order to enable the division of shares as described in point b) below, the Board of Directors proposes that the General Meeting resolves that the limits on the number of shares in the Articles of Association be amended as follows.

Current wording:

Section 5 – No. of shares

The number of shares shall be no less than 50,000,000 and no more than 200,000,000.

Proposed new wording:

Section 5 – No. of shares

The number of shares shall be no less than 200,000,000 and no more than 800,000,000.

e)   Division of shares (share split)

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves to increase the number of shares in the company by dividing each share into four (4) shares (4:1 share split). Following the share split, the number of shares in the Company will increase from 52,000,000 shares to 208,000,000 shares, which implies a quota value of SEK 0.25 per share.

It is proposed that the Board of Directors be authorised to determine the record date for the division of the shares, which may not, however, be before the date on which the decision has been registered with the Companies Registration Office.

It is proposed that the Board of Directors, or the person appointed by the Board of Directors, be authorised to make such minor amendments to the above resolutions as may be required by the registration thereof with the Swedish Companies Registration Office and Euroclear.

The resolution of the Annual General Meeting pursuant to paragraphs a)-b) above shall be adopted as a resolution.

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.

17. Resolution to establish an incentive programme (LTIP 2021) by a) issuing warrants to the subsidiary Kanalfläkt Industrial Service AB and b) approving the transfer of warrants to employees of the company or its subsidiaries

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves on the introduction of an incentive programme by the Company carrying out an issue of warrants and the transfer of warrants to certain employees within the group on the terms and conditions set out below ("LTIP 2021").

The issue of the warrants shall, with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, be directed to the wholly owned subsidiary, Kanalfläkt Industrial Service AB, registration number 556063-2530 ("the Subsidiary"). The warrants shall be issued free of charge to the Subsidiary. The right to subscribe for the warrants is vested in the Subsidiary with the right and obligation for the Subsidiary to offer employees as defined in section B.1 below to acquire the warrants for consideration on the terms and conditions set out below.

The reason for the deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights is that the Board of Directors believes that it is important and in the interest of all shareholders that Group management and other key persons, who are deemed important for the further development of the company, have a long-term interest in good value growth for the Company’s shares. A personal long-term shareholder commitment can be expected to contribute to an increased interest in the company's activities and performance, as well as to increase participants' motivation and affinity with the company and its shareholders.

An explanation of the preparation of the proposal, the costs of the programme and the impact on key indicators is given in Annex A.

a)   Issue of warrants to the Subsidiary

The issue, which comprises a maximum of 600,000 warrants of series 2021/2025 (calculated after completion of the share split according to item 16 on the agenda), shall be made with derogation from shareholders' preferential rights and on the following terms.

1.   Number of warrants issued

The Company shall issue a maximum of 600,000 warrants (calculated after completion of the share split as set out in item 16 on the agenda). Each warrant carries the right to subscribe for one (1) new share in the company.

2.   Subscription rights and allotment

The right to subscribe for the warrants shall, with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, be exclusively vested in the Subsidiary wholly owned by the Company. Oversubscription cannot occur. The subsidiary shall, after subscription, offer the employees of the company as defined in section B.1 below to acquire the warrants.

3.   Issue price

The warrants shall be issued free of charge to the Subsidiary.

4.   Time for signing

The warrants must be subscribed for within four weeks from the date of the issue decision. The Board of Directors has the right to extend the subscription period.

5.   Time for exercise of warrants

Each warrant entitles the holder to subscribe for one (1) new share in the Company. Subscription of shares in accordance with the terms of the warrants may take place during the following periods:

a)   a two-week period from the day following publication of the Company's interim report for the period 1 May to 31 July 2024/2025, but no earlier than 19 August 2024 and no later than 30 September 2024,

b)   a two-week period from the day following the publication of the company's interim report for the period 1 May to 31 January 2024/2025, but no earlier than 1 March 2025 and no later than 30 April 2025, and

c)   a two-week period from the day following publication of the Company's interim report for the period 1 May to 31 July 2025/2026, but no earlier than 1 August 2025 and no later than 30 September 2025.

6.   Subscription price

The subscription price per share upon exercise of the warrant shall be an amount equal to 110 per cent of the calculated volume weighted average price of the Company's share on Nasdaq Stockholm during the period from 27 August 2021 up to and including 9 September 2021. If the company has inside information during this period, the Board of Directors shall have the right to postpone the measurement period. The subscription price may not be lower than the current quota value of the share. In the event that the subscription price exceeds the quota value of the previous shares, the excess amount (the excess price) shall be recorded in the free share premium fund in the company's balance sheet.

If, upon subscription of a share, the last paid price on Nasdaq Stockholm for the Company's share at the close of trading on the trading day immediately preceding the new subscription exceeds 160 per cent of the volume weighted average price of the Company's share during the period from 27 August 2021 up to and including 9 September 2021, the subscription price shall be increased by an amount equal to the amount by which the aforementioned payment price exceeds 160% of the aforementioned average price.

Alternative exercise model

Holders of the warrants shall have the right, upon subscription of shares with the exercise of the warrants, to request the application of an alternative exercise model in accordance with the full terms and conditions. When applying the alternative subscription model, the subscription price for each share shall be equal to the quota value of the share and the warrants shall entitle the holder to a converted number of shares, which shall be lower as a starting point. However, the warrants shall not entitle the holder to more than one (1) share per warrant, subject to any conversion in accordance with the full terms and conditions of the warrants. Assuming that the subscription price for the shares in the company for which warrants entitle to subscription is set at SEK 84.30, application of the alternative exercise model would have the following effects in the event of full new subscription with the support of all 600,000 warrants and full exercise of the alternative exercise model at the share prices for the company's shares prior to the subscription period indicated below:

Illustrative calculation example based on an assumed subscription price of SEK 84.30

Share priceTotal dilutionTotal number of new shares
SEK 900.02%38,106
SEK 1000.0594,436
SEK 1100.07%140,501
SEK 1200.09%178,873

7.   Increase in share capital

The increase in the Company's share capital, if the warrants are exercised in full, may amount to a maximum of SEK 150,000 (assuming the current quota value and that no conversion has taken place in accordance with the full terms and conditions of the warrants).

8.   Dividend

Shares subscribed for with the exercise of the warrants carry the right to a dividend for the first time on the record date for dividends that falls closest after subscription has been executed.

9.   Authorisation

The Board of Directors, or the person appointed by the Board of Directors, shall be authorised to make such minor amendments to the resolution as may be required for registration with the Swedish Companies Registration Office and Euroclear Sweden AB.

Other terms and conditions are set out in the full terms and conditions of the warrants. Among other things, it is stated that the subscription price as well as the number of shares for which each warrant entitles the holder to subscribe may be recalculated in the event of a bonus issue, new issue, split, merger or in certain other cases. It was noted that the share split proposed by the Board of Directors under item 16 on the agenda of the Annual General Meeting will not entail any recalculation.

In the event of full subscription and full exercise of the warrants, the Company's share capital may be increased by a maximum of SEK 150,000 through the issue of a maximum of 600,000 shares, each with a quota value of SEK 0.25 (after the share split), subject, however, to the recalculation that may be required under the terms of the warrants. These new shares, when fully utilised, represent approximately 0.29 per cent of the total number of shares in the company.

b)   Approval of transfer of warrants

1.   Participants and allocation

The Board of Directors further proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves to approve that the Subsidiary may transfer a maximum of 600 000 warrants in the company of series 2021/2025 to the participants, or otherwise dispose of the warrants to secure the commitments in connection with the Incentive Programme 2021/2025.

The right to acquire warrants from the Subsidiary shall be granted to the following categories of employees:

CategoryNumber of options per categoryMaximum number of options per person
A. President and CEO
(maximum 1 person)
48,00096,000
B. Group Management
(maximum 7 people)
168,00048,000
C. Other key individuals
(maximum 42 people)
384,00020,000

If warrants within a certain category remain after all applications within the category have been satisfied, the remaining number may be allocated to participants in the same or another category, whereby the Board shall determine the allocation based on factors such as category membership, category of personnel and number applied for. However, such allocation must not result in the maximum number of warrants per person within a given category as set out in the table above being exceeded. The Board of Directors of the Company decides on the final allocation.

The right to acquire warrants from the Subsidiary shall only accrue to those persons who have not resigned or been dismissed at the end of the notification period.

Options should also be offered to new employees. For such acquisitions, the conditions shall be the same or equivalent to those set out in this resolution. For example, this means that acquisitions must be made at the current market value at that time.

Transfer of warrants to participants is conditional upon it being legally possible to purchase the warrants, and that such transfers can be done using reasonable administrative and financial resources according to the assessment of the Board.

2.   Price and payment

The warrants shall be transferred on market terms at a price (premium) equal to an estimated market value of the warrants using a generally accepted valuation model calculated by an independent valuation institution. For acquisitions made by new employees after the end of the initial notification period, the new market price shall be determined accordingly.

For the warrants, the value has been provisionally calculated at SEK 7.29 per option based on a share price of SEK 76.63, which corresponded to the pro forma closing price of SEK 306.50 for Systemair's share on 24 June 2021, calculated after the share split according to item 16 on the agenda, a cap level of SEK 122.60 per share and an assumption of a subscription price of SEK 84.30 per share, an assumption of future dividends of SEK 0.83 and 10 percent annual growth thereafter, a risk-free interest rate of
-0.14 percent and a volatility of 29 percent. The preliminary valuation has been carried out by Nordea Bank Abp.

The warrants shall be transferred to the participants no later than before the 2022 AGM, after which any non-transferred warrants shall be cancelled.

The options shall otherwise be subject to market conditions.

3.   Termination of employment

The warrants shall be subject to a right for the company or its subsidiaries to repurchase the warrants, at the lower of cost and market value, if a participant's employment with or assignment to the company is terminated, or if the employee resigns or is terminated, during the term of the program.

4.   Authorisation and majority requirements

It is proposed that the Board of Directors, or the person appointed by the Board of Directors, be authorised to make such minor adjustments to the above resolution as may be required by the registration thereof with the Swedish Companies Registration Office or Euroclear Sweden AB.

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.

18. 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. By virtue of the authorisation, the Company may issue up to a maximum of ten percent of the number of shares in the Company based on the number of shares at the time the authorisation is first exercised. 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.

19. Resolution to amend the Articles of Association

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves to amend the Company's Articles of Association to adapt them to the changes in the law and to enable the collection of proxies and postal voting in accordance with the Swedish Companies Act (aktiebolagslagen).
