The committee has also had talks with the company's largest shareholders.

As a public limited company, Protector Forsikring ASA is covered by regulatory provisions related to the composition of the board. The Nomination Committee is concerned that the board is broadly composed and that it works well as a college and that it meets the company's need for expertise, capacity and diversity. It is also important that the Board members have the necessary competence to join the Board's subcommittees; the Audit Committee, the Risk Committee and the Compensation Committee. The committee has emphasized balance and diversity in terms of gender, age, experience and competence. The Nomination Committee wants to preserve the continuity of the Board, but at the same time provide space for new representatives. The Nomination Committee has made an overall assessment of the Board, and it is the Nomination Committee's opinion that the nominated Board is to be regarded as well suited to fill the duties and perform the tasks associated with the Board's work in Protector Forsikring ASA.

The members of the Board and the members of the Nomination Committee are encouraged to own shares in the company.

4. Remuneration to the members of the Board of Directors and to the members of the Nomination Committee

Remuneration of the Board of Directors and the Nomination Committee are decided by the General Meeting.

The Nomination Committee aims that the remuneration to the Board of Directors reflects the Board of Directors' responsibilities, competence, time consumption and the complexity of the business and that the Board of Directors have remuneration at market terms. The Nomination Committee also seeks for meetings-based remuneration for the members in the company's governing bodies, elected by the General Meeting.

Last time the remuneration was revised was in connection with the 2021 election where the remuneration was increased by 9%-18%. The Nomination Committee proposes that the

remuneration of the Chairman of the Board and the Deputy Chairman of the Board be increased so that there is more compliance with practice in comparable companies. The Nomination Committee encourages the members of the governing bodies to reinvest parts of the remuneration in Protector shares.

Additional remuneration to the Board sub-committees and remuneration to the Nomination Committee are proposed unchanged.
