BioArctic’s Annual General Meeting on May 7, 2020, adopted an instruction regarding the appointment of the Nomination Committee. Pursuant to this instruction the company shall have a Nomination Committee comprising one representative for each of the three principal shareholders in terms of votes, based on the information received from Euroclear Sweden AB on the last banking day in September 2020, as well as the Chairman of the Board (convener).
September 30, 2020, the three largest shareholders were Demban AB, Ackelsta AB and The Fourth Swedish National Fund (AP4). The latter, however, has chosen to give up its seat in the Nomination Committee for the benefit of The Third Swedish National Pension Fund (AP3), which is the company’s fourth largest shareholder as of September 30, 2020.
The three owners who have agreed to be part of the Nomination Committee, Demban AB, Ackelsta AB and Tredje AP-fonden, represent just over 63 percent of the shares and just over 85 percent of the votes in the company.
The nomination committee comprises the following members:
- Margareta Öhrvall, appointed by Demban AB
- Claes Andersson, appointed by Ackelsta AB
- Gunnar Blix, appointed by Tredje AP-fonden
The Nomination Committee shall prepare proposals for the 2021 Annual General Meeting regarding the Chairman of the Meeting, number of Board members, fees to be paid to the Chairman of the Board and Board members, election of Board members and Board Chairman, remuneration to the auditor and election of auditor and, if necessary, proposal for changes in the instruction to the Nomination Committee.
