                              Board of Directors and committees

                              The Annual General Meeting resolved that the Board of Directors shall consist of nine members without deputies. Luciano Cattani, Annika Espander Jansson, Laurent Leksell, Johan Malmqvist, Tomas Puusepp, Wolfgang Reim, Jan Secher and Birgitta Stymne Göransson were re-elected as members of the Board.

                              Guidelines for remuneration to the Executive Management

                              The Annual General Meeting approved the guidelines for remuneration and other employment conditions for Executive Management.

                              Performance Share Plan 2017

                              The Annual General Meeting resolved to adopt Performance Share Plan 2017. The program comprises the President and CEO and Executive Management in the Company, in total eleven employees, who will qualify for allotment, free of charge, shares of series B following expiry of the three years performance period and provided continued employment during the performance period. The total number of shares that can be allotted depends on the degree of fulfilment of one financial target, EPS growth over a three years performance period. The award will vest if the compound annual growth rate of EPS is between 109 per cent and 154 per cent comparing 2019 financial results to 2016. The performance target shall be adjusted at the occurrence of events affecting the number of outstanding shares in the Company, or unforeseen material events affecting the Elekta Group´s operations or otherwise affecting the performance targets and deemed relevant by the Board of Directors. Should the Company decide on changes to the Company’s accounting principles or decide on restructuring costs the Board may decide on changes to the Performance Share Plan 2017 performance targets. Assuming maximum allotment under the Performance Share Plan 2017 and a share price of SEK 85, a maximum of 371,275 shares of series B are required to fulfil commitments under the program (including social security costs), corresponding to approximately 0.10 per cent of the total number of outstanding shares, and the costs, including social security costs and the financing cost for repurchased own shares, are estimated at approximately SEK 31,560,000.

                              Acquisition and transfer of own shares

                              The Annual General Meeting authorized the Board of Directors, during the period until the next Annual General Meeting to resolve, on one or more occasions, on the acquisition of a maximum number of own shares so that, after the acquisitions, the Company does not hold more than ten per cent of the total number of shares in the Company. The Annual General Meeting also authorized the Board of Directors, during the period until the next Annual General Meeting to resolve, on one or more occasions, on transfers of own shares in connection with financing takeovers and other strategic investments and transfers, and not exceeding the maximum number of treasury shares held by the Company at any given time.

                              In view of the Performance Share Plan 2017, the Annual General Meeting resolved to approve the transfer of treasury shares amounting to not more than 420,000 shares of series B, and to authorize the Board of Directors, during the period until the next Annual General Meeting, on one or more occasions, to make decisions that not more than 126,000 shares will be transferred on Nasdaq Stockholm with the purpose of covering certain fees, primarily social security costs.

                              In view of the Performance Share Plan 2015 and 2016, the Annual General Meeting authorized the Board of Directors during the period until the next Annual General Meeting, on one or more occasions, to make decisions that not more than 301,500 shares will be transferred on Nasdaq Stockholm with the purpose of covering certain fees, primarily social security costs.
