The 2012 AGM resolved that the Nomination Committee for the 2013 AGM should be appointed through a procedure whereby the Chairman of the Board, before the end of the second quarter of the fiscal year, contacts not less than three and not more than five representatives for the largest holders of A and B shares, which should be given the possibility to appoint one member each, as per the last banking day in September.
Those members shall, together with the Chairman of the Board, constitute the Nomination Committee and fulfill its obligations in accordance with the Code. The procedure is described in its entirety in the minutes of the 2012 AGM, which can be found on Elekta’s website.
The names of persons appointed to the Nomination Committee were announced in a press release on October 24, 2012. The Nomination Committee’s assignment is valid until a new Nomination Committee has been named.
