Information about all of the directors proposed for re-election is available on the company’s website (www.paresources.se) and in the company's annual report for 2011 (page 37).

Principles for the appointment of a Nomination Committee

The Nomination Committee proposes that the AGM resolves to appoint a new Nomination Committee for the AGM in 2013, basically in accordance with the model previously applied.

This model involves the Chairman of the Board being assigned to contact the three largest shareholders entered as at 30 September 2012 in the company, registered directly in Euroclear Sweden's share register, to ask them whether these shareholders wish to appoint a member to the company's Nomination Committee for the 2013 AGM.

In the event that such a shareholder does not wish to appoint a member, or if the shareholder sells a substantial portion of its shares before the Nomination Committee manages to constitute itself, the next largest shareholder who has not yet been appointed, shall be asked. The members appointed in this manner, together with the Chairman of the Board as convener, are to form the Nomination Committee. The Committee shall appoint one of its members as Chairman. The names of the Committee members shall be announced not later than six (6) months before the AGM to be held in 2013. The Nomination Committee shall comply with and fulfil the duties ensuing from the Swedish Code of Corporate Governance and shall submit a proposal for the process of appointing a new Nomination Committee at the next AGM.

The annual accounts including the auditor’s report, the Board’s proposal for guidelines for the remuneration of senior management as well as the Nomination Committee’s complete proposal etc, will be available from the company (see address above) as well as on the company’s website, www.paresources.se. Copies of the said documents will be sent to shareholders requesting them and stating their postal address.

In accordance with Chapter 7, Section 32 of the Companies Act, the Board of Directors and the President will upon the request of a shareholder and provided the Board considers that it may be done without causing material harm to the company, inform the general meeting about, first, circumstances that may affect the evaluation of an item on the agenda and, second, circumstances that may affect the evaluation of the financial situation of the company or a subsidiary and, thirdly, the company’s relation to another company in the group. Questions may be put in advance in the same manner as for giving notice of participation in the general meeting, as explained above.
