Item 1, 9 and 10 - Proposals from the Nomination Committee regarding Chair of
the Meeting, number of Board members, Chair, and other Board members and
registered auditing company
The Nomination Committee, consisting of Petra Hedengran, the Chair of the
Nomination Committee, Investor AB, Jan Andersson, Swedbank Robur Fonder, Ramsay
Brufer, Alecta and Hans Ek, SEB fonder, who together represent more than 30% of
the total number of votes in the Company, as well as Hans Stråberg, the Chair of
the Board, propose as follows:
Item 1: That Hans Stråberg is elected Chair of the Meeting.
Item 9: That nine Board members be elected. That one registered auditing company
be elected.
Item 10: That the following Board members are re-elected: Staffan Bohman, Johan
Forssell, Ronnie Leten, Ulla Litzén, Gunilla Nordström, Hans Stråberg, Anders
Ullberg, Peter Wallenberg Jr and Margareth Övrum. That Hans Stråberg is elected
Chair of the Board. That Deloitte AB is re-elected as the auditing company.
Information regarding all proposed Board members is available on
www.atlascopco.com/agm

Item 11 – Proposal from the Nomination Committee regarding remuneration to the
Board of Directors and for committee work and audit fee
Remuneration of SEK 1,900,000 (1,900,000) to the chair and SEK 600,000 (570,000)
to each of the other seven Board members not employed by the Company. To the
chair of the Audit Committee SEK 225,000 (225,000) and SEK 150,000 (150,000) to
the other members of this committee. Unchanged remuneration of SEK 60,000 to
each of the members of the Remuneration Committee and remuneration of SEK 60,000
to each Board member who, in addition to the above, participates in a committee
in accordance with a decision of the Board of Directors.

Reflecting the ambition to further enhance the interest for the long term
development of the Company, the Nomination Committee proposes that each
nominated Board member shall have the possibility to choose between receiving
50% of the remuneration in the form of synthetic shares and the rest in cash and
to receive the whole remuneration in cash.

The Board proposes that the obligation of the Company to pay an amount
corresponding to the synthetic shares as described above shall be hedged through
the purchase of own series A shares. Repurchased shares can be sold on the
market in connection with the payment to the Board member in compliance with a
request for mandate. The economic difference for the Company if all Board
members choose to receive a part of their fee in the form of synthetic shares
compared to receive the whole remuneration in cash is assessed to be very
limited due to the hedging.

Audit fee is proposed to be as per approved invoice.

Item 12 – The Board’s proposals regarding:
a) guiding principles for the remuneration of senior executives
b) a performance based personnel option plan for 2015

12 a) guiding principles for the remuneration of senior executives
The term “senior executives” covers the President & CEO and the other eight
members in the Group management team.
The proposal of the Board for 2015, is as follows:
The remuneration to the senior executives shall consist of a base salary,
variable compensation, long term incentive programs, pension premium and
additional benefits. For expatriates certain other benefits apply in compliance
with the Company’s Conditions for Expatriate Employees.
The base salary reflects the position, qualification and individual performance.
The size of the variable compensation depends on the extent to which
predetermined quantitative and qualitative goals are met. The variable
compensation is limited to a maximum of 80% of the base salary for the President
& CEO, to 60% for the Business Area Executives and to 50% for the other senior
executives.
Pension premiums are paid in accordance with a premium based plan within a range
of 25-35% of the base salary, depending on age. Additional benefits consist of
company car and private health insurance.
In case of termination of employment of a senior executive by the Company, the
compensation can amount to a maximum of 24 months base salary and a minimum of
12 months base salary depending on age, length of employment and possible income
from other economic activity or employment. The Board reserves the right to
deviate from these guiding principles if special reasons for such deviation
exist in an individual case.

12 b) a performance based personnel option plan for 2015
In the opinion of the Board it is important, and it is also in the best interest
of the Shareholders, that key personnel in Atlas Copco have a long term interest
in a good value development of the shares of the Company and align their
performance in a manner that enhances such a development. In particular this
applies to the group of key personnel that consists of the senior executives and
the division presidents. It is also the assessment of the Board that a share
related option program increases the attractiveness of Atlas Copco on the global
market and enhances the possibility to recruit and keep key personnel in the
Group.
Scope and main principles
Granting
The Board asks for the right to decide on the issuing of performance stock
options that can give a maximum of 335 key personnel in the Group the
possibility to acquire a maximum of 3,651,055 series A shares.
Issuing
The issuing is dependent on the value increase of the Group expressed as
Economic Value Added during 2015. In an interval of SEK 2,000,000,000 the issue
varies linear from zero to 100% of the maximum number. The size of the plan and
the limits of the interval have been established by the Board and are compatible
with the goals in the long term business plan of the Company.
The issue of performance stock options is maximized to the following number per
person within the respective key group:
category 1 – the President & CEO: 180,878 (113,013) options
category 2 – Business Area Executives (4): 29,534 (38,527) options
category 3 – other members of the Group management and division presidents (27):
19,379 (25,684) options
category 4 – other key personnel (303): 9,336 (12,131) options
The Board shall decide which persons shall be included in category 4 based on
position, qualification and individual performance. The issuing of options will
take place not later than March 20, 2016.
The Board shall have the right to introduce an alternative incentive plan for
key personnel in such countries where the granting of options is not feasible.
Such alternative incentive solutions (SAR) shall, to the extent possible, have
terms and conditions corresponding to the ones applicable to the performance
stock option plan.
The term of the performance stock options
The term of the options shall be five years from the date of granting. The
options are not transferable.
Exercise
The options are exercisable earliest three years from granting. The right to
exercise only applies during the period a person is deemed employed.
Exercise price
The exercise price shall be set to an amount corresponding to 110% of the
average of the closing rates at Nasdaq Stockholm of series A shares during a
period of ten business days next following the date of the publishing of the
full-year summary for 2015.
Maximized outcome
A single payment/assignment of shares under the stock option plan can never
exceed four times the value of the exercise price.
Recalculation
In case there should be a decision at an AGM regarding, for example, a reduction
or increase of outstanding shares or a dividend beyond the dividend policy of
the Company a recalculation can take place to preserve the value of the options.
A decision regarding such recalculation shall be taken by the Board.
Theoretical Value for the Recipient
A theoretical value on a personnel option has been established based on the
Black & Scholes model for valuating options. As a base for the calculation,
among other factors, a share price of SEK 253.16 and an expected volatility of
30% have been used. The theoretical value is calculated to amount to SEK 38.70
per personnel option or in total a maximum of SEK 141,295,829 (134,983,687) for
the whole plan.
Requirement for senior executives and division presidents regarding own
investment
As prerequisite for the participation of the senior executives and division
presidents (32 persons) in the personnel stock option plan 2015 applies that
they have invested a maximum of 10% of their respective base salary for 2015,
before tax, in series A shares of the Company (20% for expatriates with net
salary). The investment may be in cash or by pre-owned shares, however, not by
shares that are obtained as part of the participation in the stock option plan
for 2013 and 2014.
The participation in the plan corresponds proportionally to the investment made.
Those who have chosen to invest in series A shares will get, in addition to the
proportional participation in the plan, the right to acquire, three years after
the investment year, the number of shares (matching shares) that corresponds to
the number of shares acquired under 2015 at a price of 75% of the market value
upon which the exercise price for the shares in the 2015 plan was based, subject
to continued employment and continued ownership of the shares. If the number of
the acquired shares has been reduced, the right to matching shares is reduced on
a share by share basis.
The theoretical value for this is calculated to be SEK 68.30 per matching share
or in total approximately SEK 2,608,719.
Delivery of shares
The personnel options shall give the right to acquire already issued series A
shares.

Item 13 – The Board’s proposal regarding mandates to:
a) acquire series A shares related to personnel option plan for 2015
b) acquire series A shares related to remuneration in the form of synthetic
shares
c) transfer series A shares related to personnel option plan for 2015
d) sell series A shares to cover costs related to synthetic shares to Board
members
e) sell series A and B shares to cover costs in relation to the performance
based personnel option plans for 2010, 2011 and 2012

In order for the resolutions by the Meeting in accordance with 13 a), b), d) and
e) above to be adopted, the resolutions must be supported by Shareholders
holding at least two-thirds of the votes cast as well as of the shares
represented at the Meeting. In order for the resolution by the Meeting in
accordance with 13 c) above to be adopted, the resolution must be supported by
Shareholders holding at least nine tenths of both the votes cast as well as of
the shares represented at the Meeting. Should majority votes not be achieved,
the intention of the Company is to hedge the financial exposure in connection
with the 2015 personnel option plan and secure delivery of shares by entering
into an equity swap agreement with a financial institution.

The Board proposes that the Board is granted the mandate until the next Annual
General Meeting to decide, on one or more occasions, on the acquisition of
shares in the Company as follows:
1. Acquisition of not more than 3,800,000 series A shares
2. The shares may only be acquired on Nasdaq Stockholm
3. The shares may only be acquired at a price per share within the registered
trading interval, at any given point in time.
The acquisition is made with the intention to limit the economic risk caused by
an increase of the share value during the period the performance stock options
remain outstanding, to be able to fulfil future delivery obligations under
personnel option and matching share agreements, to cover alternative solutions
and cash settlements as well as to cover, primarily, social charges.

13 b) acquire series A shares related to remuneration in the form of synthetic
shares
The Board proposes that the Board is granted the mandate until the next Annual
General Meeting to decide, on one or more occasions, on the acquisition of
shares in the Company as follows:
1. Acquisition of not more than 70,000 series A shares
2. The shares may only be acquired on Nasdaq Stockholm
3. The shares may only be acquired at a price per share within the registered
trading interval, at any given point in time.
The acquisition is made with the intention to hedge the obligation of the
Company to pay remuneration, including social charges, to a Board member who has
chosen to receive 50% of the remuneration in synthetic shares.

13 c) transfer series A shares related to personnel option plan for 2015
The Board further proposes that the Meeting decides to transfer shares in the
Company in relation to the Company’s personnel option plan 2015, including the
share saving/matching share part, according to the following:
1. A maximum of 3,500,000 series A shares may be transferred. Right to acquire
shares is to be granted the persons participating in the Company’s proposed
performance stock option plan 2015, with a right for each participant to acquire
the maximum number of shares stipulated in the terms and conditions of this
plan. The participant’s right to acquire shares is conditional upon all terms
and conditions of the Company’s performance stock option plan 2015 being
fulfilled. Shares are to be transferred on the terms and conditions stipulated
by the plan, meaning inter alia, that what is stated therein regarding price and
time during which the participants are to be entitled to use their right to
acquire shares is also applicable to the transfer. Participants are to pay for
the shares within the time and on the terms stipulated in the performance stock
option plan 2015.
2. With respect to the number of shares that may be transferred under the
Company’s performance stock option plan, customary terms for recalculation as a
result of bonus issue, share split, rights issues and similar measures apply in
accordance with the terms and conditions of the plan.

As reason for the deviation from the Shareholders’ right of first refusal and as
the base for the transfer price in connection with the transfer of own shares,
the Board states that the transfer of own shares is a part of the proposed
performance stock option plan for 2015.

13 d) sale of series A shares to cover costs related to synthetic shares to
Board members
The Board proposes that the Board is granted the mandate until the next Annual
General Meeting to decide, on one or more occasions, to sell not more than
30,000 series A shares in the Company to cover the costs of giving a counter
value of earlier issued synthetic shares and to, primarily, cover social
charges.

Shares proposed to be sold were acquired based on mandates given at the Annual
General Meeting each respective year to acquire the share for the stated
purpose. The sale shall take place on Nasdaq Stockholm at a price within the
registered price interval at any given time.

As reason for the deviation from the Shareholders’ right of first refusal and as
the base for the price in connection with the sale of own shares, the Board
states that the sale of own shares is a part of the previously adopted decision
regarding synthetic shares to the Board.

13 e) sale of series A and B shares to cover costs in relation to the
performance based personnel option plans for 2010, 2011 and 2012
The Board proposes that the Board is granted the mandate until the next Annual
General Meeting to sell, at one or more occasions, a maximum of 8,100,000 series
A and B shares, in connection with the exercise of rights under the above
mentioned performance stock option plans and related costs in order to cover
costs, primarily cash settlements in Sweden, SAR and social costs.

Shares proposed to be sold were acquired each respective year based on mandate
given at that year’s Annual General Meeting to acquire the shares for the stated
purpose. The sale shall take place on Nasdaq Stockholm at a price within the
registered price interval at any given time.

As reason for the deviation from the Shareholders’ right of first refusal and as
the base for the price in connection with the sale of own shares, the Board
states that the sale of own shares is an integrated part of the previously
adopted performance stock option plans. Due to current legislation, this has to
be re-approved annually.

Item 14 - The Board’s proposal regarding a share split and mandatory share
redemption, including a) share split 2:1, b) reduction of the share capital
through redemption of shares of series A and series B, and c) increase of the
share capital through a bonus issue without issuance of new shares

Background
Atlas Copco has generated significant operating cash flows in recent years.
Consequently, the Company has a strong financial position. In order to adjust
the Group’s balance sheet to a more efficient structure and, at the same time,
maintain the financial flexibility for further growth, the Board proposes to the
Meeting a mandatory share redemption, by a so called share split of 2:1, whereby
each existing share will be split into two shares. One of those shares will
automatically be redeemed at SEK 6 per share. This corresponds to a total
redemption amount of SEK 7,302,391,548 which the Shareholders will receive in
addition to the proposed ordinary dividend of SEK 6 per share. The Board also
propose that, in order to quickly and efficiently transfer the redemption amount
to the Shareholders, the share capital of the Company is increased by SEK
393,004,095 by way of a bonus issue. In view hereof, the Board proposes that the
Meeting resolves in accordance with the following proposal.

14 a) Share split 2:1
The Board proposes that the Meeting resolves to change the quota value of the
share (the share capital divided by the number of shares) by way of a share
split, so that each existing share (irrespective of the series of shares) is
divided into two shares, of which one is to be referred to as redemption share
in the VPC-system and be redeemed in the manner described under b) below. The
suggested record day at Euroclear for the share split is May 18, 2015. The last
trading day for the Company’s shares including the right to receive redemption
shares will therefore be May 13, 2015 and the first trading day for the
Company’s shares excluding the right to receive redemption shares will be May
15, 2015. After the share split, the number of shares in the Company will
increase from 1,229,613,104 to 2,459,226,208, of which 1,678,788,192 are series
A shares and 780,438,016 are series B shares, each share with a quota value of
approximately SEK 0.3196.

14 b) Reduction of the share capital through redemption of shares of series A
and series B
The Board proposes that the Meeting resolves that the Company’s share capital
shall be reduced by SEK 393,004,095 (the reduction amount) for repayment to the
Shareholders and for transfer to the non-restricted equity, to the extent that
the reduction of the share capital is implemented by way of redemption of shares
held by the Company. The reduction will be made by way of redemption of
1,229,613,104 shares, of which 839,394,096 series A shares and 390,219,008
series B shares. The shares so redeemed shall be those shares that, after the
share split in accordance with item a) above, are referred to as redemption
shares in the VPC-system, whereby the record day for the right to receive
redemption shares according to a) above is to be May 18, 2015.Trading in the
redemption shares is estimated to take place as from May 19, 2015 up to and
including June 9, 2015.

For each redeemed share (irrespective of the series of shares) a redemption
amount of SEK 6 will be paid, of which approximately SEK 5.68 exceeds the quota
value of the share. However, no payment is to be made in respect of redeemed
shares held by the Company. The total redemption amount is calculated to an
amount of SEK 7,302,391,548. In addition to the reduction amount, a total
estimated amount of SEK 6,909,387,453 will be distributed, by use of the
Company’s non-restricted equity. The suggested record date for the right to
receive the redemption amount isJune 11, 2015. Payment of the redemption amount
is estimated to be made by Euroclear onJune 16, 2015.

Following the reduction, the Company’s share capital will amount to SEK
393,004,095 divided on, in total 1,229,613,104 shares, of which 839,394,096 are
series A shares and 390,219,008 are series B shares, each share with a quota
value of approximately SEK 0.3196. Apart from the reduction of the share
capital, the Company’s restricted shareholders’ equity will not be affected.

In its statement pursuant to Chapter 20, Section 13, fourth paragraph of the
Swedish Companies Act, the Board states the following. The resolution on
reduction of the share capital by redemption of shares according to b) above may
be implemented without obtaining the Swedish Companies Registration Office’s or
a general court’s permission, since the Company at the same time implements a
bonus issue according to c) below, as a measure whereby that neither the
Company’s restricted shareholders’ equity, nor its share capital will be
reduced. The effect of the reduction of the share capital and the bonus issue on
the Company’s restricted shareholders’ equity and the share capital is
presented, as concerns the reduction, in the preceding paragraph and, as
concerns the bonus issue, in c) below.

14 c) Increase of the share capital through a bonus issue without issuance of
new shares
The Board further proposes that the Meeting resolves that the Company’s share
capital is increased by way of a bonus issue of SEK 393,004,095 to SEK
786,008,190, by a transfer of SEK 393,004,095 from the Company’s non-restricted
equity. No new shares are to be issued in connection with the bonus issue.

The number of shares in the Company will, after implementation of the increase
of the share capital, be 1,229,613,104, of which 839,394,096 are series A shares
and 390,219,008 are series B shares, each share with a quota value of
approximately SEK 0.6392.

The resolutions by the Meeting in accordance with a) – c) above are conditional
upon each other and shall therefore be resolved upon as one resolution. In order
for the resolution by the Meeting to be valid, the resolution must be supported
by Shareholders holding at least two thirds of the votes cast as well as the
shares represented at the Meeting.

Finally, the Board proposes that the Meeting gives the President & CEO mandate
to make minor adjustments regarding the resolutions in this item 14, which may
be required to register the Shareholders’ decisions with the Swedish Companies
Registration Office and Euroclear.

Item 15 - The Board’s proposal to change the articles of association
In order to add possible locations to hold General Meetings of Shareholders, the
Board proposes that the Meeting resolves to change the first sentence of § 10 in
the articles of association from “General Meeting of Shareholders shall be held
in Stockholm or Nacka.” to “General Meeting of Shareholders shall be held in
either of the following municipalities: Stockholm, Nacka, Danderyd, Huddinge,
Sollentuna, Solna or Sundbyberg.”

Shares and Votes
The Company has issued in total 1,229,613,104 shares of which 839,394,096 are
series A shares and 390,219,008 are series B shares. On March 24, 2015 out of
such shares the Company holds 12,046,467 series A shares and 501,379 series B
shares. Series A shares have one vote and series B shares have one tenth of a
vote whereas the non-represented shares held by the Company corresponds to
12,096,604.9

If a Shareholder so requires and the Board believes that the information can be
given without causing harm to the Company, the Board and the President & CEO
shall give information regarding an item on the agenda or circumstances that
might affect the evaluation thereof or circumstances that could affect the
evaluation of the economic position of the Company or a subsidiary Company or
the Company’s relation to another Company within the Group.

If a Shareholder wishes to submit questions in advance, such should be sent to:
Atlas Copco AB, Attn: General Counsel, SE-105 23 Stockholm or to

redemption will be available at the Meeting and is available on
