The nomination committee

The general meeting resolved that the instructions for the nomination committee ahead of the annual general meeting 2023 shall be left unchanged from the previous year’s instructions.

Resolution regarding approval of the board of directors’ remuneration report

The general meeting resolved to approve of the board of directors’ remuneration report.

Resolution regarding approval of incentive program

The general meeting resolved to issue not more than 600,000 warrants within the scope of a long-term incentive programme for senior executives within Nordic Paper in accordance with the proposal by the board. The rationale for the incentive programme is to create opportunities to motivate and retain senior executives within Nordic Paper. The incentive programme has been established as it is deemed desirable for senior executives within Nordic Paper to also be shareholders of the company.

Authorisation for the board of directors to issue shares

The general meeting resolved in accordance with the proposal by the board of directors authorise the board to, up and until the next annual general meeting, on one or several occasions and with or without preferential rights for existing shareholders, resolve on the issue of new shares, comprising a total of not more than 10 per cent of the total number of outstanding shares in the company as at the time of the annual general meeting’s resolution to approve the proposed authorisation.

The purpose of the authorisation is to increase the financial flexibility of Nordic Paper and the acting scope of the board of directors. Should the board of directors resolve on an issue with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, the reason for this must be to finance acquisitions of companies or operations. Upon such deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights, the new issue shall be made at market terms and conditions.
