The nominations committee, i.e. the representatives of the company’s
shareholders who have been appointed to make proposals for the board
consists of the following representatives: Göran Almberg, chairman of
the nominations committee (LRF), Rickard Svensson (Arvid Svensson
Invest), Bo Jansson (Skandia Liv), Erik Törnberg (Investment AB
Öresund), Klas Andersson (representing other shareholders) and Stefan
Dahlbo (Chairman of the board of Klövern) proposes that the board
shall consist of seven members, which is unchanged compared with the
present number. It is proposed that Stefan Dahlbo, Gustaf Hermelin,
Lars Holmgren, Anna-Greta Lundh, Johan Piehl, Lars Rosvall and
Fredrik Svensson be re-elected. The nominations committee proposes
that Stefan Dahlbo be elected as chairman. It is proposed that a fee
of SEK 875,000 be paid to the board, of which SEK 250,000 is to be
paid to the Chairman of the board and SEK 125,000 each to the other
members, which is unchanged compared with the present fee. No fee is
to be paid to the President & CEO of Klövern. It is proposed that
payment be made to the auditors in accordance with the invoice amount
submitted.

It is proposed that the authorised firm of public accountants Ernst &
Young AB be reappointed for a period of four years with authorised
public accountant Mikael Ikonen as auditor in charge. The present
auditor in charge Björn Fernström, who has been auditor for the
company since 2000, cannot be reappointed due to the current rotation
rules.

Adoption of principles for remuneration and other conditions of
employment for the senior management, item 14
The board makes the following proposals for remuneration and other
conditions of employment for the senior management:

The monthly basic salary is to be at a market level and competitive
and take into account the areas of responsibility and experience of
the individual. The basic salary is reviewed every year.

For the President & CEO, the variable salary shall be paid at 1 per
cent of the company’s profit before tax, to the extent that this
amount exceeds the set operational targets for the property
operations. Annual maximum bonus may, for the President & CEO, amount
to an amount corresponding to at most six months basic salary. The
pension premium for the President & CEO can at the most amount to 35
per cent of the basic salary and the retirement age is 65. The period
of notice for the President & CEO is twelve months if notice is given
by the company and six months if given by the President & CEO.
Severance pay is not paid.

For other senior executives, the maximum annual bonus may total an
amount corresponding to six months basic salary. The pension premium
may at most amount to 35 per cent of the basic salary and the
retirement age is 65. For other senior executives, the period of
notice is at most twelve months if notice is given by the company and
six months if given by the employee. Severance pay is not paid for
four of the five senior executives. In the case of one senior
executive, there are conditions on severance pay, in addition to the
above-mentioned period of notice, which mean twelve months salary in
the event of notice being given by the company.

Benefits in addition to salary and pension are, for all senior
executives, cost benefit, and a share in Klövern’s profit-sharing
fund. The President and three other senior executives have a company
car benefit. One other senior executive is entitled to home help
service.

The board of directors is entitled to depart from the guidelines if
there are special reasons for doing so in particular cases.

Senior executives include the President & CEO and other members of
the executive management group. The executive management at present
consists of Gustaf Hermelin, President & CEO, Britt-Marie Einar,
Corporate Communications Officer, Tomas Hermansson, Head of Business
Unit in Kista, Anders Lundquist, CFO, Thomas Nilsson, Real Estate
Manager and Caesar Åfors, Finance Manager.

Nominations Committee, item 15
The nominations committee’s proposals for the composition of the
nominations committee are in accordance with those decided upon at
the Annual General Meeting in 2006 and which thus apply for the
Annual General Meeting in 2007. The principles can be read on
Klövern’s website, kelly.corem.se.

Decisions on authorisation for the board of directors to acquire and
transfer the company’s own shares, item 16
The board of directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting
authorise the board of directors, at the latest until the next annual
general meeting, to acquire and transfer Klövern’s own shares. This
authorisation is intended to make it possible to continuously adjust
the company’s capital requirements and thus contribute to increased
shareholder value, and to be able to transfer shares in connection
with financing of any property or company acquisitions, by payment
with the company’s own shares.

Acquisition may take place of as many shares so that the company’s
holding amounts at most to the number of shares that at any point in
time corresponds to 10 per cent of the shares issued by the company.
Acquisitions may take place by purchase on the Stockholm stock
exchange, Stockholmsbörsen. Transfer may take place of at most the
number of shares that at any point in time corresponds to 10 per cent
of all of the shares issued by the company. Transfer shall be able to
take place both on Stockholmsbörsen and, deviating from the priority
right of shareholders, to a third party in connection with property
or company acquisitions. Payment for transferred shares can be made
in cash, as payment in kind, a set-off, or otherwise with conditions.

Brokerage-free trade, item 17
The board of directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting
decide to invite shareholders to purchase or sell the number of
shares required to achieve a holding equivalent to whole trading lots
(a trading lot = 500 shares). If the shareholder holds less than 500
shares, the whole holding can be sold free of brokerage. It is
proposed that it be left to the board to decide on the period of the
offer and the detailed terms and conditions.

Other matters
The annual report, the auditors’ report and the board’s complete
proposals in other matters are available at Klövern’s office in
Nyköping from Wednesday. 7 March 2007. Copies of the documents will
be sent to the shareholders who make a request to that effect and
provide their postal address.
