3. Remuneration of the board of directors

The remuneration of the board of directors is based on an annual fixed board fee based on the nature and the extent of the board duties and the number of meet-ings.

Efforts are made to ensure that the remuneration of the board of directors is com-petitive compared to the remuneration paid in other comparable companies yet considering the need for ad-hoc duties outside the normal scope of board duties in special circumstances.

The chairman of the board of directors receives 2.5 x annual fixed basic board fee, and the deputy chairman receives1.5 x annual fixed basic board fee.

I addition to the annual fixed basic board fee, an annual fixed committee fee is paid to the members of board committees. At present, the only board committee is an audit committee in which the chairman receives 0.75 x annual fixed commit-tee fee and any other members of the audit committee receive 0.5 x annual fixed committee fee.

Information about the level of the remuneration paid to the board of directors, and information about the level of the remuneration paid to the board committees can be found in the Company’s annual report that is available on the Company’s website www.nordicom.dk.

No incentive-based remuneration is paid to the board of directors, and the mem-bers of the board of directors are not offered any pension contribution or similar contributions.

The members of the board of directors are elected by the shareholders at the an-nual general meeting and for a term of office until the next annual general meet-ing. Board members may seek re-election.

 

4. Remuneration of the executive board

Efforts are made to ensure that the remuneration of the executive board is at a competitive level consideringthe remuneration of members of the executive man-agement in comparable companies and the qualifications and efforts of each member of the executive board including the results achieved.

The remuneration of the executive board is based on both fixed and variable re-muneration components.

In general, consideration has been made to the remuneration of the Company’s other employees. Remuneration of the other employees follows the same overall principles and to a large degree also the different remuneration components de-scribed in this remuneration policy, especially in relation to the key employees of the Company. Thus, the Company does not only consider the remuneration level in comparable companies, but the Company also considers the remuneration level of other employees of the Company. This is also the case as regards to the general terms of employment of the executive board.

 

4.1 Fixed annual remuneration

The fixed remuneration components focus on ensuring stability and continuous maintaining of qualified members of the Company’s management. Thus, the fixed remuneration components contribute to the long-term sustainable development of the Company’s business and thus, the fixed remuneration creates value for the Company’s shareholders.

The fixed annual remuneration components consist of a fixed annualbasic fee. In addition it is agreed that it is possible that a company car, a company-paid phone, internet subscription, housing allowance newspaper subscription,and a pension contribution corresponding to 10% of the fixed annual basic fee are of-fered as part of the fixed annual basic fee.

 

4.2 Incentive-based remuneration

The variable remuneration components focus on ensuring targeted and motivated efforts that are executed in an efficient manner without accepting unreasonable risks. Further, the variable remuneration components focus on being in a reasonable proportion to the results achieved by each member of the executive board and the Company’s situation in general.

 

4.2.1 Bonus scheme (cash based)

The variable remuneration componentscan consistof a bonus scheme that is based on specific objectives determined by the board of directors. Those objec-tives relate to the Company’s earnings performance and a number of individual performance indicators.

Individual performance indicators typically relate to delivery of annual business results of the Company and its subsidiaries or the occurrence of a relevant event.

The above individual performance indicators contribute to the Company’s busi-ness strategy, long-term interest and sustainability by maximizing alignment with shareholder value and financial sustainability for the Company.

Evaluation of the extent of fulfilment of the above made by the board of directors must be based on the facts and data in relevant published audited report(s), other announcements published by the Company and facts and data announced in statutory statements such as corporate governance reports, etc. available on the Company’s website.

The maximum value of a bonus allocation according to the bonus scheme is 20% of the fixed annual basic fee.
