The election committee's proposal for the board of Safe at Sea before the AGM 2024-05-30

The election committee in Safe at Sea consisting of Mattias Wachtmeister (chairman), Mattias Ekström, Thomas Johannesson and Kaj Lehtovaara as well as the company's chairman Hans Bergenheim - in total representing more than 30% of the shares in the company - began its work in January, and after interviews with Both current board members and external candidates submit the following proposals to the General Meeting today;

The election committee proposes re-election of Marianne Wittbom - current board member - as chairman of the board and re-election of Kai Lehtovaara as board member of Safe At Sea AB. The nomination committee further proposes the new election of Johan Rafstedt and Mattias Ekström as board members in Safe At Sea AB.

Johan Rafstedt works as a consultant within Molekylgruppen in Gothenburg and has more than 25 years of experience from leading positions, with an emphasis on CFO roles - within companies such as Cellmark, Stena Bulk, Volvo Penta and most recently Autocirc. As part of boards and management teams, Johan has had overall responsibility for areas such as long-term financing, acquisitions and investments. Johan has a master's degree in business administration at the University of Gothenburg.

Mattias Ekström is one of the company's largest shareholders and has been working with Corporate finance for 12 years now via his own company - Elleme in Stockholm - through which he has had assignments for a large number of listed and private companies in projects and transactions. Previous experience includes project management and corporate finance at Remium where he was responsible or involved in around a hundred transactions with small and medium-sized companies. Mattias is currently a board member in the Effnet platform (First North) and major shareholder and board member in the private limited company Fasty (Industriproduktion in Anderstorp). Mattias has an education as a civil economist, majoring in economics and business administration at Linköping University.

The election committee thanks Hans Bergenheim, who, after holding the chairmanship since 2018 and with strong commitment led the company through a revolutionary period which can be said to have been crowned with success as Safe At Sea was now able to turn to a positive result on a full-year basis, now declines re-election.

The election committee also thanks Magnus Forsbrand, who participated with dedication in the board's work for the past three years when he now due to increased workload in other assignments declines re-election.

The election committee proposes that the board's fee be issued at unchanged levels from 2023. The chairman of the board is to receive SEK 120,000, ordinary members who are not employed by the company SEK 75,000.

The election committee sees that we can achieve the desired continuity when Marianne Wittbom, after several years on the board - a time which also meant that Marianne took an active acting CEO role during the regular CEO's parental leave - is now willing to take over the role of chairman. With only two years left until the company's 20th anniversary, the company's founder and current acting CEO continues. Kaj Lehtovaara as a strong force on the board.

In what is expected to be a period of strong growth and renewal for the company, we see it as very positive that we can propose an entrepreneur with a CFO background and such broad competence as Johan Rafstedt. The company also gets clearer shareholder representation when Mattias Ekström comes in with relevant experience.

The election committee proposes the re-election of the audit company Frejs Revisorer AB as the Company's auditor to be carried out under ongoing approved accounting. Frejs Revisorer AB has notified that the authorized auditor Ulf Johansson continues as principal auditor.
