    The board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting resolves to approve the board of directors' report regarding compensation pursuant to Chapter 8, Section 53 a of the Swedish Companies Act.

    THE BOARD'S PROPOSAL REGARDING THE IMPLEMENTATION OF A LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PROGRAM AND HEDGING ARRANGEMENTS RELATING THERETO (ITEM 12)

    Implementation of the program (item 12A)

    The board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting resolves on the implementation of a long-term incentive program (the "LTIP 2021") in accordance with the below.

    Objectives

    The LTIP 2021 is designed to provide long-term incentives for members of the Executive Management Team, including the CEO ("EMT") as well as Top Management Team and other key employees ("TMT") to improve Coor's performance and create long-term value. The main purposes of the LTIP 2021 are to increase and strengthen the potential for recruiting and retaining key individuals and to create an individual long-term ownership of Coor shares among the participants and thereby align their interests with those of the shareholders.

    Description of the LTIP 2021

    The LTIP 2021 is proposed to include all current and future members of the EMT and TMT (the "Participants"), currently comprising of 65 employees in total. It is proposed that the program, which entails an investment requirement, should consist of performance shares. As proposed, the LTIP 2021 may comprise a maximum of 550,000 shares in Coor, representing approximately 0.57 percent of all shares and votes in Coor.[1]

    Investment requirement

    In order to participate in the LTIP 2021, Participants are required to make own investments in Coor shares and to allocate a number of shares to the LTIP 2021. The maximum number of Coor shares that may be allocated to the LTIP 2021 corresponds to approximately 7.5-10 percent of the Participant's gross fixed annual salary in connection with enrolment in the LTIP 2021 ("Investment Shares"), as further set out below. Coor shares already held by Participants at the time of implementation and that are not allocated to ongoing share related incentive programmes[2], may be accounted for as Investment Shares in the LTIP 2021. Should the Participant be prohibited to acquire Coor shares under market abuse rules or similar at enrolment in the LTIP 2021, Investment Shares must instead be acquired as soon as such restrictions do not longer apply.

    Performance Share Rights

    For each Investment Share, rights will be granted free of charge under the LTIP 2021, entitling the Participant to receive a number of Coor shares, free of charge, following expiration of a three-year vesting period ("Performance Share Rights"). Each Performance Share Right entitles the holder to one (1) Coor share. Allotment of Coor shares pursuant to Performance Share Rights will be subject to the achievement of performance conditions, as set out below, and will generally require that the Participant retains his or her employment and all his or her Investment Shares over a period of approximately three years from the date of grant of Performance Share Rights (the "Vesting Period").

    Granting of Performance Share Rights to the Participants will generally take place as soon as practicably possible following the annual general meeting 2021.

    In order to align the Participants' and shareholders' interests, Coor will compensate for dividends and other value transfers to the shareholders during the Vesting Period by increasing the number of shares that each Performance Share Right entitles the Participant to receive. The number of Coor shares which each Performance Share Right entitles the Participant to receive may be recalculated as a result of e.g. bonus issues, reverse splits or splits of shares, new share issues, reductions of the share capital, or similar actions. The transfer of shares may be accelerated as a result of any merger, demerger, larger acquisition or divestment or similar actions.

    Allocation and performance conditions

    The Performance Share Rights are divided into three series, Series A, Series B and Series C, and the vesting of Performance Share Rights will be subject to the satisfaction of performance conditions during the period 1 January 2021-31 December 2023 (the "Performance Period"), which will determine what portion (if any) of the Performance Share Rights of the respective series that will vest at the end of the Vesting Period.

    The three performance conditions for the respective series of Performance Share Rights are the following:

                                       

                                       

    Series A

                                       

    Average Customer Satisfaction Index ("ACSI"): If Coor's ACSI during the Performance Period equals or fall short of the minimum level 66, no vesting will occur. If Coor's ACSI equals or exceeds 70, 100% vesting will occur. A linear proportioned performance vesting will occur if the outcome is between the minimum and maximum levels. Information about the outcome will be provided in the annual report for the financial year 2023.

                                                   

                                       

    Series B

                                       

    Accumulated adjusted EBITA development: If Coor's accumulated adjusted EBITA development during the Performance Period equals or falls short of the minimum level defined as 10% below of the accumulated adjusted EBITA according to Coor's Business Plan for 2021-2023 (as decided by the board of directors), no vesting will occur. If Coor's accumulated adjusted EBITA development percentage equals or exceeds the maximum level defined as 10% above of the accumulated adjusted EBITA according to Coor's Business Plan, 100% vesting will occur. A linear proportioned performance vesting will occur if the outcome is between the minimum and maximum levels. The board of directors shall have the right to adjust the target levels for any acquisitions or disposals made by Coor during the Performance Period. Information about the target levels and outcome of the performance conditions will be provided in the annual report for the financial year 2023.

                                                   

                                       

    Series C

                                       

    Relative Total Shareholder Return ("TSR"[3]) development:The vesting will vary depending on Coor's TSR performance versus the weighted average of a group of other companies (the "Peer Group")[4]. If Coor's accumulated TSR performance during the Performance Period equals or falls short of the weighted average index for the Peer Group (the minimum level), no vesting will occur. If Coor's accumulated TSR performance equals or exceeds the weighted average index for the Peer Group by more than 6 percentage points (the maximum level), 100% vesting will occur. A linear proportioned performance vesting will occur if the outcome is between the minimum and maximum level for the Peer Group. Information about the outcome will be provided in the annual report for the financial year 2023.

                                       

    The maximum number of Investment Shares to be allocated to the LTIP 2021 and the maximum allocation of the respective series of Performance Share Rights for each of the three participant categories are set out below.

                                       

                                       

    Category 1 (CEO)

                                       

    The CEO can allocate up to 9,000 Investment Shares to the LTIP 2021. Each Investment Share entitles the CEO to receive: 1 Performance Share Right of Series A;4 Performance Share Rights of Series B; and 1 Performance Share Right of Series C. In total 6 Performance Share Rights for each Investment Share.

                                                   

                                       

    Category 2 (EMT)

                                       

    10 other employees in the EMT can allocate up to 2,750 Investment Shares each.Each Investment Share entitles these employees to receive:1 Performance Share Right of Series A; 3 Performance Share Rights of Series B; and 1 Performance Share Right of Series C. In total 5 Performance Share Rights for each Investment Share.

                                                   

                                       

    Category 3 (TMT)

                                       

    Approximately 54 employees in TMT can allocate up to 1,250 Investment Shares each.Each Investment Share entitles these employees to receive:1 Performance Share Right of Series A; 2 Performance Share Rights of Series B; and 1 Performance Share Right of Series C. In total 4 Performance Share Rights for each Investment Share.

                                       

    Allotment of shares

    Provided that the performance conditions above have been met during the Performance Period and that the Participant has retained his or her employment (unless special circumstances are at hand) and the Investment Shares during the Vesting Period, the Performance Share Rights will vest and allotment take place of Coor shares ("Performance Shares") as soon as practicably possible following the expiration of the Vesting Period.

    When determining the final vesting level of Performance Share Rights, the board of directors shall examine whether the vesting level is reasonable considering Coor's financial results and position, conditions on the stock market and other circumstances, and if not, as determined by the board of directors, reduce the vesting level to the lower level deemed appropriate by the board of directors.

    In the event delivery of Performance Shares to Participants cannot take place under applicable law or at a reasonable cost and employing reasonable administrative measures, the board of directors will be entitled to decide that Participants may, instead, be offered a cash settlement.

    Costs, dilution and effects on important key ratios

    The costs for the LTIP 2021, which are charged in the profit and loss account, are calculated according to the accounting standard IFRS 2 and distributed over the Vesting Period. The calculation has been made based on the quoted closing price of shares in Coor as of 10 March 2021, i.e. SEK 63.90 per share, and the following assumptions: (i) an annual dividend yield of approximately 6 percent, (ii) an estimated annual turnover of personnel of 10 percent, (iii) an average fulfilment of the performance conditions of approximately 50 percent, and (iv) a total maximum of 550,000 Performance Shares eligible for allotment. In addition to what is set forth above, the costs for the LTIP 2021 have been based on that the program comprises a maximum of 65 Participants and that each Participant makes a maximum investment.

    In total, the costs for the LTIP 2021 according to IFRS 2 are estimated to approximately SEK 9.3 million excluding social security costs (SEK 17.4 million if the average fulfilment of the performance condition is 100 per cent). The costs for social security charges are calculated to approximately SEK 3.8 million, based on the above assumptions, and also assuming an annual share price increase of 10 percent during the LTIP 2021 and a social security tax rate of 23.5 percent (SEK 7.6 million if the average fulfilment of the performance condition is 100 percent).

    The expected annual costs of SEK 4.5 million, including social security charges, correspond to approximately 0.1 percent of the Coor Group's total employee costs for the financial year 2020 (0.2 per cent if the average fulfilment of the performance condition is 100 per cent).

    In addition to the above-mentioned costs, the LTIP 2021 is expected to generate costs related to external advisory services and administration costs related to the transfer of shares. In total, these costs are not expected to exceed SEK 0.3 million.

    As proposed, the LTIP 2021 may comprise a maximum of 550,000 shares in Coor, representing approximately 0.57 percent of all shares and votes in Coor, including buffer for dividend compensations, but excluding 130,000 shares that may be acquired for subsequent transfers on Nasdaq Stockholm to cover certain costs associated with the LTIP 2021.

    Since there is no proposal to issue new shares pursuant to the LTIP 2021, the LTIP 2021 will have no dilutive effect on the existing shareholders votes or share of the capital. The effect on important key figures is only marginal.

    Hedging arrangements

    The board of directors has considered different methods for securing the financial exposure and the transfer of shares under the LTIP 2021, such as transfer of treasury shares and an equity swap agreement with a third party. The board of directors considers acquisitions of own shares on Nasdaq Stockholm with subsequent transfer to Participants to be the most cost efficient and flexible method to secure the financial exposure and the transfer of shares under the LTIP 2021.

    Since the costs in connection with an equity swap agreement will be significantly higher than the costs in connection with transfer of treasury shares, the board of directors' main proposal is that the financial exposure is secured by transfer of treasury shares (item 12B).

    Should the majority requirement under item 12B below not be reached, the board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting approves the entering into an equity swap agreement with a third party (item 12C).

    Preparation of the proposal, etc.

    The proposal regarding LTIP 2021 has been prepared by Coor's remuneration committee in consultation with external advisors and has been adopted by the board of directors.

    The board of directors shall, within the framework of the above terms and conditions and the applicable guidelines for remuneration of senior executives, be responsible for the implementation and management of the LTIP 2021 and all major decisions relating to the LTIP 2021 will be taken by the remuneration committee, with approval by the full board of directors as required.

    Description of ongoing variable compensation programs

    Coor's ongoing share related incentive programmes - LTIP 2018 and LTIP 2019 - were approved by the annual general meeting 2018 and 2019 respectively, and are described in the Annual Report 2018, in the note to the Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 5 and 6, in the Annual Report 2019, in the note to the Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 5 and 6 and in the Annual Report 2020, in the note to the Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 6 and 7. The compensation for the EMT, including fixed and variable compensation, and other remunerations are also described in the Annual Report. The Remuneration Report prepared by the board of directors and presented at the annual general meeting for approval contains a summary description each and every incentive programs which are ongoing or have been completed during the year.

    Authorisation for the board of directors to resolve on acquisitions of own shares and resolution on transfers of own shares to LTIP 2021 Participants (item 12B)

    Authorisation for the board of directors to resolve on acquisitions of own shares

    The board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting authorises the board of directors to, at one or several occasions up to the next annual general meeting, resolve on acquisitions of the company's own shares in accordance with the following conditions:

    • Acquisitions may only be effected on Nasdaq Stockholm.
    • A maximum of 680,000 shares may be acquired to secure delivery of shares to LTIP 2021 Participants and for subsequent transfers on Nasdaq Stockholm to cover certain costs associated with the LTIP, mainly social security costs.
    • Acquisition may only be made within the registered price range on each occasion between the highest bid price and the lowest selling price.

    The board of directors has issued a statement pursuant to Chapter 19, Section 22 of the Swedish Companies Act.

    Resolution on transfers of own shares to LTIP 2021 Participants

    The board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting resolves that transfers of own shares may be made in accordance with the following conditions:

    • A maximum of 550,000 shares may be transferred, free of consideration, to LTIP 2021 Participants.
    • Right to acquire shares free of consideration shall, with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, be granted LTIP 2021 Participants.
    • Transfers of shares shall be made free of consideration at the time and on the other terms and conditions that LTIP 2021 Participants have the right to acquire shares.
    • The number of shares that may be transferred under the LTIP 2021 may be recalculated as a result of e.g. bonus issues, reverse splits or splits of shares, new share issues, cash dividends, reductions of the share capital, or similar actions.

    The transfer of own shares is a part of the proposed LTIP 2021 and the board of directors considers it to be of benefit for Coor and its shareholders that the Participants are offered the opportunity to become shareholders in Coor on the terms and conditions of LTIP 2021.

    Equity swap agreement with a third party (item 12C)

    Should the majority requirement under item 12B above not be reached, the board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting approves the entering into an equity swap agreement with a third party, at market terms, whereby the third party in its own name shall be entitled to acquire and transfer Coor shares to the Participants.

    Conditions

    The annual general meeting's resolution on implementation of the LTIP 2021 in accordance with item 12A above is conditional upon the annual general meeting resolving either in accordance with the board of directors proposal under item 12B or in accordance with the board of directors proposal under item 12C.

    Majority requirements

    The annual general meeting's resolution according to item 12A above requires a simple majority among the votes cast. A valid resolution under item 12B above requires that shareholders representing not less than nine-tenths of the votes cast as well as of the shares represented at the meeting approve the resolution. A valid resolution under item 12C above requires a simple majority among the votes cast.

    THE BOARD'S PROPOSAL TO AUTHORISE THE BOARD TO RESOLVE ON ACQUISITIONS AND TRANSFERS OF OWN SHARES (ITEM 13)

    The board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting authorise the board of directors to, at one or several occasions up to the next annual general meeting, resolve on acquisitions of the company's own shares.

    Acquisition shall take place on Nasdaq Stockholm within the registered price range on each occasion between the highest bid price and the lowest selling price and payment for the shares shall be in cash. So many shares may, at the most, be repurchased so that the company's holding does not at any time exceed 10 percent of the total number of shares in the company.

    The board of directors has issued a statement pursuant to Chapter 19, Section 22 of the Swedish Companies Act.

    The board of directors also proposes that the annual general meeting authorise the board of directors, for the period until the next annual general meeting, to resolve on transfers of not more than all of the company's own shares held by the company.

    Transfer of shares shall take place on Nasdaq Stockholm within the registered price range on each occasion between the highest bid price and the lowest selling price.

    The aim of the authorizations are to allow the board of directors the opportunity to adjust the capital structure and in doing so create increased value for Coor's shareholders.

    A valid resolution under this item requires that shareholders representing not less than two thirds of the votes cast as well as of the shares represented at the meeting approve the resolution.

    THE BOARD'S PROPOSAL TO AUTHORISE THE BOARD TO RESOLVE ON NEW ISSUES OF SHARES (ITEM 14)

    The board of directors proposes that the annual general meeting authorise the board of directors to, at one or several occasions up to the next annual general meeting, resolve upon new issues of shares. By resolutions based on the authorisation, not more than such number of shares corresponding to 10 percent of the total number of shares in the company at the time of the annual general meeting's resolution on the authorisation, may be issued.

    The authorisation includes a right to resolve to issue new shares for cash consideration, by contribution in kind or payment by set-off. Share issues for cash consideration and by payment by set-off may be made with disapplication from the shareholders' preferential rights, provided that the share issue is made on market terms.

    The reason for the proposal and the potential deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights is to allow for flexibility in connection with potential acquisitions or to raise capital for acquisitions.

    A valid resolution under this item requires that shareholders representing not less than two thirds of the votes cast as well as of the shares represented at the meeting approve the resolution.

    THE BOARD'S PROPOSAL ON AMENDMENTS TO THE ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION (ITEM 15)

    According to Chapter 7, Section 6 of the Swedish Companies Act, it may be stated in the articles of association that persons not being shareholders of the company shall be entitled to attend or in any other manner follow the discussions at a general meeting. Furthermore, according to Chapter 7, Section 4 of the Swedish Companies Act, the board of directors may collect proxies for the general meeting if it is specified in the articles of association. According to Chapter 7, Section 4 a of the Swedish Companies Act, it may also be stated in the articles of association that the board of directors may decide that the shareholders shall be able to exercise their voting rights by post before the general meeting.

    In order to be able to use the alternatives provided by the Swedish Companies Act to decide on proxy collection and postal voting as well as to decide on attendance at a general meeting for persons not being shareholders, the board of directors proposes that article 8 of the articles of association is amended as set out below. The board of directors also proposes that the reference in the same article to the obligation for shareholders who wish to participate at general meetings to be included in the share register five weekdays before the general meeting is removed, since that wording now is in conflict with the Swedish Companies Act.
