Item 13 – Resolution on the number of directors, resolution on the remuneration

Item 14 – Proposal regarding rules for the nomination committee

The nomination committee proposes the following:

1. The company shall have a nomination committee consisting of not less than
four and not more than six members. Three of the members shall be appointed by
the major shareholders and one member shall be appointed by the Board of
Directors amongst its directors. These members of the nomination committee may
appoint one additional member. In those cases referred to in item 6 below, the
number of members can amount to six.

2. Based on ownership statistics received from Euroclear Sweden AB as per the
date occurring five months before the expiry of the current financial year each
respective year, the chairman of the board shall, without delay, contact the
three largest shareholders in the company in terms of votes, and offer such
shareholders to, within reasonable time, each appoint a representative to be
part of the nomination committee. If any of these shareholders elects to
renounce from its right to appoint a representative, the right to appoint a
representative shall be transferred to the largest shareholder in turn in terms
of votes which is not already entitled to be represented on the nomination
committee.

3. The member of the nomination committee who represents the shareholder
controlling the largest number of votes shall chair the nomination committee.

4. The members of the nomination committee are appointed for a term up until a
new nomination committee has been appointed.

5. The composition of the nomination committee shall be announced as soon as the
nomination committee has been formed and in all events no later than six months
before the next Annual General Meeting.

6. In the event that the ownership structure of the company is changed after the
date occurring five months before the expiry of the current financial year, but
before the date that occurs 12 weeks before the next Annual General Meeting, and
if a shareholder that has become one of the three largest shareholders in terms
of votes following this change asks the chairman of the nomination committee to
be represented on the nomination committee, such shareholder is entitled to, in
the nomination committee's discretion, either appoint an additional member to
the nomination committee or to replace the member who represents, following the
change of the ownership structure, the smallest shareholder in terms of votes.

7. If a member of the nomination committee that represent a shareholder resigns
or otherwise is unable to continue as member, the nomination committee shall –
if time allows and if the change is not due to a specific circumstance e.g. that
the shareholder has sold its shares – request the shareholder that had appointed
that member to, within reasonable time, appoint a new member of the nomination
committee. If the shareholder is no longer eligible for the nomination committee
or if it renounces its right to appoint a member, the right to appoint such new
member shall be transferred to the largest shareholder in turn in terms of votes
which is not already represented on, or has renounced its right to appoint a
member to, the nomination committee. If a member that has been appointed by the
other members of the nomination committee resigns or is otherwise unable to
continue as member, the other members of the nomination committee may elect a
new member.

8. No remuneration shall be paid to the members of the nomination committee.
However, the company shall be liable for costs incurred by the nomination
committee in its work.

9. The nomination committee shall present proposals regarding (i) chairman of
the Annual General Meeting, (ii) members of the Board of Directors to be elected
by the Annual General Meeting, (iii) chairman of the Board of Directors, (iv)
remuneration to the Board of Directors elected by the Annual General Meeting,
distributed between the chairman of the board, the deputy chairman of the board,
if any, and the other members of the Board of Directors, and remuneration for
work on the committees, (v) remuneration to the auditors, (vi) election of
auditors and (vii) rules for the nomination committee.

10. At shareholders' meetings other than the Annual General Meeting, the
nomination committee shall submit proposals for elections, if any, to take place
at such shareholders' meeting.

Item 15 – Proposal regarding guidelines for remuneration to the executive
management

The Board of Directors proposes that the remuneration to the President and other
members of the group management as well as other executives reporting directly
to the President shall consist of fixed salary, variable salary, other benefits
and pension. Where the Board of Directors finds it appropriate, such executives
shall also be offered to participate in long term share based incentive plans,
which shall be decided by the general meeting (see item 16). Any variable salary
should be linked to predetermined and measurable criteria and be limited to the
equivalent of one fixed annual salary. The total remuneration shall be in line
with market practice and be competitive, and be related to responsibility and
authority. Upon termination of employment agreements by the company, the notice
period shall be no longer than 12 months. Any severance pay shall not exceed one
fixed annual salary on top of the notice period. The company shall strive to
have defined contribution pension benefits. The retirement age shall be not less
than 60 years and not more than 67 years. These guidelines apply to agreements
entered into after the Annual General Meeting, and in case changes are made to
existing agreements after this point in time. The Board of Directors shall be
entitled to deviate from the guidelines in individual cases if there are special
reasons for it.

Item 16 – Proposal regarding long term incentive plan (LTI 2016)

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves on a
long term share based incentive plan (LTI 2016) for Cloetta AB (publ)
("Cloetta") as follows.

Participants in LTI 2016

LTI 2016 comprises up to 73 employees consisting of group management and certain
key employees within the Cloetta Group, divided into three categories. The first
category comprises of the President and CEO and the other ten members of the
group management, the second category is comprised of up to 33 other employees
who have been considered to have a significant direct impact on the results of
Cloetta. The third category is comprised of up to 29 employees, consisting of
individuals who have been considered to have an indirect impact on the results
of Cloetta.

Personal shareholding, grant of share rights and vesting period

To participate in LTI 2016, the participant must have a personal shareholding in
Cloetta ("Investment Shares"), which shall be allocated to LTI 2016. The
Investment Shares may be acquired specifically for purposes of LTI 2016, or be
shares already held by the participant, provided that these have not been
allocated to the previous incentive plan. The participant may as a maximum
invest 10 per cent of the participant's annual salary for 2016 before tax, in
LTI 2016. For the first category of participants, each Investment Share gives
entitlement to one (1) matching share right ("Matching Share Right") and six (6)
performance share rights ("Performance Share Right") (together referred to as
"Share Rights"). For the second category, each Investment Share gives
entitlement to one (1) Matching Share Right and four (4) Performance Share
Rights. For the third category, each Investment Share gives entitlement to one
(1) Matching Share Right and two (2) Performance Share Rights. The Share Rights
will be granted to the participant following the Annual General Meeting 2016 in
connection with, or shortly after, an agreement is made between the participant
and Cloetta concerning participation in LTI 2016. Allocation of B-shares, if
any, on the basis of Share Rights will, except for in exceptional circumstances,
occur after the announcement of Cloetta's interim report for the first quarter
2019 (the "Vesting Period").

Terms for all Share Rights

For all Share Rights the following conditions apply:

The Share Rights are granted free of charge.

  · Each Matching Share Right entitles the participant to receive, free of
charge, one (1) Cloetta B-share on condition that the participant remains
employed within the Cloetta Group and that the participant continues to hold all
the Investment Shares during the entire Vesting Period. Allocation of B-shares
on the basis of Performance Share Rights requires, in addition, fulfilment of
two performance targets.
  · The participants are not entitled to transfer, pledge or dispose of the
Share Rights or perform any shareholders' rights regarding the Share Rights
during the Vesting Period.
  · Cloetta will not compensate the participants in the plan for dividends made
in respect of the shares that the respective Share Right qualifies for.

Performance Share Rights

The number of Cloetta B-shares that will be allocated to the participant based
on the participant's holding of Performance Share Rights will depend on the
level of fulfilment of two performance targets, one of which relates to
Cloetta's EBIT level during 2018 and the other relates to growth in Cloetta's
compounded net sales value during 2016, 2017 and 2018. A minimum level and a
maximum level for each of the performance targets have been established by the
Board of Directors. In order for every Performance Share Right to give
entitlement to one (1) B-share in Cloetta, the maximum level for both
performance targets must have been fulfilled. Where the level of fulfilment is
between the minimum and maximum levels, allotment will occur on a linear basis
in stages, whereby each of the two performance targets is given equal importance
in terms of entitling the participant to B-shares. Cloetta intends to present
the level of fulfilment of the performance targets in the 2018 annual report.

Scope, hedging and estimated costs

As a maximum, 1,524,100 B-shares in Cloetta can be allocated to the participants
under LTI 2016, which represents approximately 0.5 per cent of all shares and
0.4 per cent of all votes in the company. The number of B-shares included in LTI
2016 shall, under conditions that the Board of Directors stipulates, be subject
to recalculation where Cloetta implements a bonus issue, a share split or a
reverse share split, a rights issue or similar measures, taking into account
customary practice for similar incentive plans. Cloetta will enter into a share
swap agreement with a bank, whereby the bank shall be able to in its own name
acquire and transfer shares to the participants in order to fulfill Cloetta's
obligation to deliver shares under the plan. Such a share swap agreement with a
bank may also be used for the purpose to cover social security fees that accrue
under LTI 2016. Based on the assumption that all persons who have been offered
participation in the plan participate, that they make the maximum investment,
that there is a 100 per cent fulfilment of the two performance targets, that
they continue as employees of Cloetta, and furthermore based on the closing
price for the Cloetta share on 25 February 2016, a constant share price during
the plan, and a Vesting Period of approximately three (3) years, the total cost
of LTI 2016 including social security costs is estimated to amount to
approximately MSEK 49.4, which on an annual basis is approximately 1.3 per cent
of Cloetta's total staff costs during the financial year 2015. LTI 2016 has no
limitation on maximum profits per Share Right for the participants and therefore
no maximum social security costs can be calculated. The interest cost for the
equity swap is estimated to amount to approximately MSEK 2.8 based on market
conditions as of 25 February 2016 and a three-year term. In addition, the equity
swap may lead to both positive and negative cash flows, which, while not
affecting the income statement, will be booked directly against equity and may
be recorded as debt in the balance sheet.

Majority requirement

A resolution to introduce LTI 2016 in accordance with the Board of Directors'
proposal is valid where supported by shareholders holding more than half of the
votes cast at the Annual General Meeting.

At the time of issuing this notice there were in the aggregate 288,619,299

98,616,140 of the votes are represented by A-shares and 278,757,685 of the votes
are represented by B-shares. Cloetta AB held, at the time of issuing this
notice, no own shares in treasury.
