The Board shall consist of not less than three (3) and not more than 13 board members ("**Board Members**") with no more than five (5) deputy board members.

Styrelseordföranden skall utses av bolagsstämman. Styrelseordföranden ska inte ha utslagsröst.

The chairman of the Board shall be appointed by the general meeting. The chairman of the Board shall have no casting vote.

------

Var och en av Styrelseledamöterna ska utses för en mandattid som upphör vid slutet av den årsstämma som hålls under det tredje räkenskapsåret efter det år då Styrelseledamoten utsågs av bolagsstämman, Verlinvest S.A. (den "**Relevanta VI-Innehavaren**") eller China Resources (Holdings) Co. Limited (den "**Relevanta CR-Innehavaren**") (såsom tillämpligt), förutsatt att mandattiden för sådan Styrelseledamot ska fortsätta löpa till dess att hans eller hennes efterträdare utsetts och med förbehåll för hans eller hennes tidigare död, avgång eller entledigande.

Each Board Member shall serve for a term ending on the date of the third annual general meeting following the annual general meeting at which such Board Member was appointed by the general meeting, Verlinvest S.A. (the "**Relevant VI Holder**") or the China Resources (Holdings) Co. Limited (the "**Relevant CR Holder**") (as applicable), provided that the term of each Board Member shall continue until the election of his or her successor and be subject to his or her earlier death, resignation or removal.

Så länge som den Relevanta VI-Innehavaren, direkt eller indirekt, innehar minst fem (5) %, tio (10) % respektive 15 % av det totala antalet aktier i bolaget ska den Relevanta VI-Innehavaren ha rätt att utse en (1), två (2) respektive tre (3) ledamöter till styrelsen. Oaktat detta ska bolagsstämman dock alltid utse sådant antal ledamöter till styrelsen som krävs för att kravet i 8 kap. 47§ aktiebolagslagen (2005:551) är uppfyllt. Om visst antal styrelseledamöter enligt de regler som gäller för sådan börs eller annan erkänd handelsplats där bolagets aktier eller depåbevis från tid till annan är upptagna för handel ska utgöras av "oberoende" personer, så ska sådana oberoende ledamöter väljas av bolagsstämman (och således inte påverka den Relevanta VI-Innehavarens rätt att utse ledamöter enligt ovan).

As long as the Relevant VI Holder, directly or indirectly, holds at least five (5) %, ten (10) % or 15 %, respectively, of the total number of all shares, the Relevant VI Holder shall have the right to appoint one (1), two (2) or three (3) Board Members respectively. Without prejudice to the foregoing, the general meeting shall appoint such number of Board Members as is required to satisfy the requirement in Chapter 8, Section 47 of the Companies Act (2005:551). If a certain number of Board Members are required to be "independent" within the meaning of the rules of any stock exchange or other recognized marketplace on which the company's shares or depository receipts are traded, then such independent Board Members shall be appointed by the general meeting (and shall not affect the Relevant VI Holder's rights to appoint Board Members in accordance with the foregoing).

Så länge som den Relevanta CR-Innehavaren, direkt eller indirekt, innehar minst fem (5) %, tio (10) % respektive 15 % av det totala antalet aktier i bolaget ska den Relevanta CR-Innehavaren ha rätt att utse en (1), två (2) respektive tre (3) ledamöter till styrelsen. Oaktat detta ska bolagsstämman dock alltid utse sådant antal ledamöter till styrelsen som krävs för att kravet i 8 kap. 47§ aktiebolagslagen (2005:551) är uppfyllt. Om visst antal styrelseledamöter enligt de regler som gäller för sådan börs eller annan erkänd handelsplats där bolagets aktier eller depåbevis från tid till annan är upptagna för handel ska utgöras av "oberoende" personer, så ska sådana oberoende ledamöter väljas av bolagsstämman (och således inte påverka den Relevanta CR-Innehavarens rätt att utse ledamöter enligt ovan).

As long as the Relevant CR Holder, directly or indirectly, holds at least five (5) %, ten (10) % or 15 %, respectively, of the total number of all shares, the Relevant CR Holder shall have the right to appoint one (1), two (2) or three (3) Board Members respectively. Without prejudice to the foregoing, the general meeting shall appoint such number of Board Members as is required to satisfy the requirement in Chapter 8, Section 47 of the Companies Act (2005:551). If a certain number of Board Members are required to be "independent" within the meaning of the rules of any stock exchange or other recognized marketplace on which the company's shares or depository receipts are traded, then such independent Board Members shall be appointed by the general meeting (and shall not affect the Relevant CR Holder's rights to appoint Board Members in accordance with the foregoing).

Styrelseledamöter som utsetts av Relevant VI-Innehavare benämns härefter som "**Relevant VI-Ledamot**" och Styrelseledamöter som utsetts av Relevant CR-Innehavare benämns härefter som "**Relevant CR-Ledamot**" (tillsammans "**Relevanta Ledamöter**").

------

Board Members appointed by the Relevant VI Holder are hereinafter referred to as "**Relevant VI Board Members**" and Board Members appointed by the Relevant CR Holder are hereinafter referred to as "**Relevant CR Board Members** (jointly "**Relevant Board Members**").

Relevanta Ledamöter kan endast avlägsnas eller ersättas av den Relevanta VI-Innehavaren eller den Relevanta CR-Innehavaren (såsom tillämpligt). Om ingen Relevant VI-Innehavare eller Relevant CR-Innehavare (såsom tillämpligt) finns får samtliga ledamöter i styrelsen endast avlägsnas eller ersättas av bolagsstämman. Styrelseledamöter som utses av bolagsstämman kan endast avlägsnas eller ersättas av bolagsstämman med förbehåll för vad som gäller enligt svensk lag. Om Styrelseledamöter (förutom sådana arbetstagarrepresentanter som utses enligt svensk lag) avgår, på grund av dödsfall, egen avgång, entledigande eller annat skäl, ska efterträdare till sådana Styrelseledamöter inte utgöras av anställda eller ledningspersoner i Bolaget, med förbehåll för vad som gäller enligt svensk lag.

Relevant Board Members may only be removed or replaced by the Relevant VI Holder or the Relevant CR Holder (as applicable). If no Relevant VI Holder or Relevant CR Holder (as applicable) exists, then all Board Members may only be removed or replaced by the general meeting. Board Members appointed by the general meeting may only be removed or replaced by the general meeting, to the extent permitted under Swedish law. When Board Members (other than employee representatives appointed under Swedish law) are removed/retired due to death, resignation, termination of service term or removal for other reasons, the successors of such removed/retired Board Members cannot be the employees or officers of the Company, to the extent permitted under Swedish law.

**§ 7**

För att Styrelsen ska vara beslutsför ska, utöver vad som följer av aktiebolagslagen (2005:551), (i) minst en (1) Relevant VI-Ledamot vara närvarande, förutsatt att den Relevanta VI-Innehavaren, direkt eller indirekt, innehar minst 15 % av det totala antalet aktier i bolaget och (ii) minst en (1) Relevant CR-Ledamot vara närvarande, förutsatt att den Relevanta CR-Innehavaren, direkt eller indirekt, innehar minst 15 % av det totala antalet aktier i bolaget.

The quorum at a Board meeting shall, in addition to the provisions of the Companies Act (2005:551), require the presence of (i) at least one (1) Relevant VI Board Member, provided that the Relevant VI Holder, directly or indirectly, holds at least 15 % of the total number of all shares and (ii) at least one (1) Relevant CR Board Member, provided that the Relevant CR Holder, directly or indirectly, holds at least 15 % of the total number of all shares.
