SAAB AB

At the SAAB general meeting on 1 April 2020, Folketrygdfondet, manager of the Government Pension Fund Norway, voted against item 11(a) for the following reasons:

Item 11(a): Election of Board Members and deputy Board Members – New Election of Micael Johansson

Rationale:
Folketrygdfondet opposes the inclusion of the CEO on the board of directors as a matter of
principle. One of the board’s main tasks is the supervision of company management, which
includes appointment and dismissal of the CEO. Folketrygdfondet considers that board members
can only supervise company management adequately if they are not recruited from among
management.
