EXECUTIVE COMPENSATIONExecutive Compensation
COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT
Compensation Committee Report

The Compensation Committee of the Board (the "Committee") advises the Board regarding senior officers' compensation and administers the Company's cash and stock incentive compensation strategy. The purpose of this plan and the objectives of the Committee are to:

• provide competitive compensation programs so as to be able to attract, retain and motivate top management talent,
• pay for performance, motivating both long- and short-term performance on behalf of Company stockholders,
• place greater emphasis on at-risk incentive compensation than on fixed salaries, particularly for senior executives,
• base the incentive compensation of business unit or subsidiary executives partly on the performance of their operations, while including a large component which recognizes overall Company performance, and
• join shareholderstockholder and management interests.

BASE SALARIESBase Salaries

The Committee recommends salaries for senior executive officers based on data on competitive comparable salaries received from independent compensation consultants, position and individual performance.

ANNUAL BONUS PROGRAMSAnnual Bonus Programs

The Committee determined annual bonus payments for 20032004 based on performance during 2003.2004. Under the annual bonus program applicable to senior executive officers, award levels may range from zero to 100%100 % of their base salaries as of the beginning of the performance periods depending on salary grade and attainment of Company and applicable business unit and subsidiary profit targets as approved by the Committee. Based on these factors and the terms of such annual bonus programs, the Committee approved bonus payments to senior executive officers for 20032004 varying from 50%47% to 98%94% of their base salaries with a median of 60%69%.

STOCK INCENTIVE PLANStock Incentive Plan

For 2003,2004, the Committee authorized stock option and restricted stock units ("RSU") grants to selected officers of the Company and its subsidiaries. All options granted for 20032004 are for 10 year terms with an exercise price equal to the market price on the date of grant, and become exercisable after one year of continued employment following the grant date. All RSU's granted vest after three years and are conditional upon the optionee not having given notice of termination of employment prior to such date. The RSUs are otherwise subject to the terms and conditions under the Stock Incentive Plan. Executive officers received option grants for 20032004 ranging from 5,0004,000 shares to 37,50030,000 shares, and received RSU grants ranging from 1,6671,333 shares to 12,50010,000 shares, (see "Option Grants in Last Fiscal Year").

In December, 2000, the Committee concluded that the stock options under the Stock Incentive Plan had become unattractive, and therefore the programme did not accomplish its intended purpose of attracting and retaining executive personnel, motivating executive personnel and providing incentive compensation that was competitive with those of other major corporations. The Committee further concluded that it was of the utmost importance to expediently ensure that executive personnel was retained and motivated. The Committee received advice from an independent compensation consultant, and thereafter offered optionees the opportunity to cancel the options granted 1997, 1998 and 1999 against (i) a grant by the Company to the optionee of a number of RSUs representing 30 percent of the number of options cancelled, and (ii) a commitment by the Company to grant to the optionee, under the terms and conditions of the Stock Incentive Plan, a number of Stock Options,options, corresponding to 20 percent of the number of options cancelled, which were granted on June 18, 2001, with an exercixeexercise date of June 18, 2002. The exercise price was equal to the market price on June 18, 2001.

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICERChief Executive Officer

The compensation paid to the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Lars Westerberg, for 20032004 was determined based on information on competitive comparable compensation levels received from an independent compensation consultant.

For 2003,2004, the Committee approved a stock option grant of 37,50030,000 shares and a RSU grant of 12,50010,000 shares of common stock of the Company to Mr. Westerberg, a cash compensation at an annual rate of SEK 6,500,0006,800,000 (USD 802,698)924,528), and an annual performance bonus of SEK 3,250,0003,400,000 (USD 401,349)462,264) with a maximum of SEK 6,500,0006,800,000 (USD 802,698)924,528).

LIMITATION ON DEDUCTIBILITY OF CERTAIN COMPENSATIONLimitation on Deductibility of Certain Compensation

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as amended (the "Code") generally disallows a tax deduction to public companies for annual compensation over $1 million paid to their chief executive officers and the four other most highly compensated executive officers that is not "performance-based" (as defined in the Code).

It is the Committee's general policy to avoid the loss of tax deductibility whenever compliance with Section 162(m) would be consistent with the Company's incentive compensation objectives.

Consequently, the employee incentive compensation programs in which the Company's most highly compensated officers participate have been structured to comply with the Code's definition of performance-based compensation. To qualify as performance-based under the Code, compensation payments must be made pursuant to a plan that is administered by a committee of outside directors and must be based on achieving objective performance goals. In addition, the material terms of the plan must be disclosed to and approved by stockholders, and the Committee must certify that the performance goals were achieved before payments can be awarded.

Notwithstanding its general policy, however, the Committee retains the discretion to authorize incentive payments that may not be deductible if it believes that doing so would be in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders.

II ORGANIZATION
A Charter
At least annually, the charter will be reviewed and reassessed by the Committee and any proposed changes will be submitted to the Board of Directors for approval.
