[Chairman of the Board of Directors]
15.A The Board of Directors' proposal regarding guidelines for Management For For
remuneration to the executive management the Board of
Directors' proposal in essence: the TeliaSonera objective
is to maximize the effectiveness of cash and equity in
remuneration programs to attract, retain and motivate
high calibre executives needed to maintain the success of
the business. Remuneration should be built upon a total
reward approach allowing for a market relevant but not
market leading and cost effective executive remuneration
delivery based on the components base salary, variable
pay, pension and other benefits; the base salary should
reflect the competence required, responsibility,
complexity and business contribution of the executive;
the base salary should also reflect the performance of
the employee and consequently be individual and
differentiated; TeliaSonera may have annual and long term
variable pay programs; a variable pay program should
reflect the EU Commission recommendation 2009/3177/EG and
the Swedish Code of Corporate Governance; variable pay
programs should contain criteria which are supporting an
increased shareholder value and should have a defined
ceiling in relation to the executive's annual base
salary; a program should have a set of pre-determined
objectives, which are measurable and for each variable
pay objective it should be stated what performance is
required to reach the starting point (minimum requirement
for payout) and what performance is required to reach the
maximum (cap); an annual variable pay program should
reward performance measured over a maximum period of 12
months, should ensure the long-term sustainability of the
Company and be capped to a maximum of the executive's
annual base salary of 40 percent; the objectives should
be designed in such a way which allows the executive to
reach the threshold for a solid performance, the target
level for a performance meeting expectations and the
maximum level for an exceptional performance; a long-term
variable pay program should ensure long-term
sustainability of the Company, secure a joint interest in
increased shareholder value and provide an alignment
between senior management and the shareholders by sharing
risks and
rewards of the TeliaSonera share price; the program may
be annually repeated and shall reward performance
measured over a minimum of a three year period, be capped
to a maximum of 50 percent per annum of the annual base
salary and should be equity based (invested and delivered
in TeliaSonera shares with the ambition that the employee
should remain shareholders also after vesting); a
prerequisite for payout from such a program is the
continuous employment at the end of the earnings period.
Approximately 100 Members of the senior management may be
eligible to a long-term variable pay program out of which
approximately 10 belongs to the group executive
management; the program measures performance over a
minimum 3 year period in relation to Earnings Per Share
(EPS) weight 50 percent and total shareholders return
(TSR) compared to a corresponding TSR development of a
pre-defined peer-group of companies weight 50 percent the
prevalence of a long-term variable pay program is subject
to the approval of the annual shareholders' meeting of
the Company; If extraordinary circumstances occur the
Board shall have the discretionary right to adjust
variable salary payments; the Board shall reserve the
right to reclaim variable components of remuneration that
were awarded on the basis of data which subsequently
proved to be manifestly misstated. Retirement benefits
shall be based on the defined contribution method;
pensionable salary is the base salary; the executive may
be entitled to a company car or other similar benefit;
the termination period for the executive management may
be up to six month given from the employee and 12 months
from the employer (for the CEO 6 months); in case of
termination from the Company the executive may be
entitled to a severance payment of up to 12 months (for
the CEO 24 months); severance pay shall be paid on a
monthly basis in amounts equal to the base salary; the
severance pay shall not constitute a basis for
calculation of holiday pay or pension benefits and shall
be reduced if the executive has a new employment or
conducts his own business; the executive may be covered
by health care provisions, travel insurance etc; in
accordance with local labour market practice; the Board
is allowed to make minor deviations on an individual
basis from the principles stated above
15.B PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS A SHAREHOLDER'S PROPOSAL: The Shareholder Against For
Swedish State's proposal regarding guidelines for
remuneration to the executive Management Proposal from
the Swedish State: TeliaSonera's objective is to offer
remuneration levels and other employment conditions
required to attract, retain and motivate high caliber
executives needed to maintain the success of the
business; The executive management will not be able to
receive annual variable pay or participate in long term
variable pay programs; with this exception, the Swedish
State's proposal includes in essence the same elements as
described in item 15 (a) above

Meeting Date Range: 07/01/2009 to 06/30/2010 29
The GAMCO Global Telecommunications Fund
16. The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Management For For
Meeting authorize the Board of Directors to resolve, on
one or more occasions prior to the 2011 Annual General
Meeting, on acquisitions of own shares, which may take
place both on Nasdaq OMX Stockholm and/or Nasdaq OMX
Helsingfors and in accordance with an offer to acquire
shares directed to all shareholders or through a
combination of these two alternatives; the maximum number
of shares to be acquired shall be such that the Company's
holding from time to time does not exceed 10 percent of
all shares in the Company; Acquisitions of shares on
Nasdaq OMX Stockholm and/or Nasdaq OMX Helsinki may only
be made at a price within the spread between the highest
bid price and lowest ask price prevailing from time to
time on the
exchanges; acquisitions of shares by way of offers to
acquire shares directed to all the Company's shareholders
may take place at an acquisition price which exceeds the
prevailing market price. It will thereupon be possible,
by means of detachable and tradable sales rights (Sw.
saljratter), for the shareholders to enjoy the value of
the premium which may arise as a consequence of the
Company acquiring shares at a price in excess of the
market price for the share. In order to compensate
shareholders who neither sell sales rights nor
participate in the acquisition offer, for their
non-exercised sales rights, a bank or another financial
institution that may be appointed by the Company shall,
upon expiry of the application period but otherwise in
accordance with the terms and conditions of the
acquisition offer, be entitled to transfer shares to the
Company and to pay compensation, amounting to the value
of the non-exercised sales rights less the banks costs,
to the shareholders concerned. However, the compensation
payable may not exceed the compensation that may be paid
per sales right in the event of an offer of
commission-free sale of sales rights. In the event
foreign legal and/or administrative rules significantly
impede implementation of an acquisition offer in a
particular country, the Board of Directors or a party
appointed by the Board of Directors, shall be entitled to
effect a sale of sales rights on behalf of the
shareholders concerned and shall, instead, pay the cash
amount received upon a sale carried out with due care,
less costs incurred. The Board of Directors shall be
entitled to decide on other terms and conditions for the
acquisition; The purpose of the proposal above is to
provide the Board of Directors with an instrument to
adapt and improve the Company's capital structure and
thereby create added value for the shareholders; The
Board of Directors also intends to propose that future
Annual General Meetings of the Company authorize the
Board of Directors to resolve on acquisitions of own
shares on terms and conditions that are materially
equivalent to those set forth above, at present, the
Company does not hold any own shares; the Board of
Directors intends to propose the 2011 Annual General
Meeting to cancel those own shares through a reduction of
the Company's share capital without repayment to the
shareholders
17.A The Board of Directors' proposal in essence: [a] Management For For
Implementation of a long-term incentive program 2010/2013
The proposed long-term incentive program for 2010/2013
[Performance Share Program 2010/2013] shall comprise
approximately 100 senior executives within the
TeliaSonera group of Companies [the Group] and in total
no more than 1,560,000 TeliaSonera shares may be
transferred to participants in the program upon
fulfilment of the performance conditions set out in the
program [Performance Shares]; The maximum number of
Performance Shares that finally may be allotted,
corresponds to approximately 0.03 percent of the total
number of outstanding shares in the Company; the Board of
Directors intends to propose forthcoming annual general
meetings to implement performance-based share programs on
similar conditions that apply to the now proposed
program; Participants in the program shall be given the
opportunity to, provided that certain performance
conditions, consisting of financial targets linked to EPS
[Earnings Per Share] and TSR [Total Shareholder Return],
are met during the three financial years 2010-2012 [the
Performance Period], receive without consideration final
allotments of Performance Shares; participation in the
program requires that the participants have invested in
or allocated to the program TeliaSonera shares [Saving
Shares] corresponding to a value of two (2) percent of a
participant's annual gross base salary [i.e. before
taxes] per year-end 2009 or, if a participant has been
employed thereafter, the calculated annual gross base
salary for
2010 [the Base Salary], saving shares shall normally be
acquired or allocated to the program during a period of
approximately two weeks following the publication of the
Company's Interim Report for the first quarter 2010, but
in the event of new recruitments thereafter,
participation in the program may be offered and
acquisition or allocation of Saving Shares may take place
until the end of August 2010; a condition for final
allotments of performance shares shall normally be that
the participant has been employed within the Group during
the whole period from entering into the program until the
day of publication of the Company's Interim Report for
the first quarter 2013 (the Vesting Period) and that all
saving shares held by a participant have been kept during
such period; maximum preliminary allotments of
Performance Shares for each of the financial years 2010,
2011 and 2012 based on the EPS targets, shall amount to
the number of performance shares corresponding to
approximately 6.67 percent of the Base Salary for each
member of the Group Management or, alternatively, 5.00
per cent of the base salary for each other manager, in
both cases, divided by the average share price during
December of the Company’s share on the Nasdaq OMX
Stockholm official price list each of the years 2009,
2010 and 2011; maximum allotments of performance shares
based on the TSR target shall amount to the number of
performance shares corresponding to 20 percent of the
base salary for each Member of the Group Management or,
alternatively, 15 percent of the base salary for each
other manager, in both cases, divided by the average
share price during December of the Company's share on the
Nasdaq OMX Stockholm official price list year 2009; the
targets for EPS based allotments as well as TSR based
allotments of Performance Shares, shall include a minimum
level, which must be exceeded in order for any allotment
to occur at all, as well as a maximum level in excess of
which no additional allotment will occur, should lower
targets than the maximum level be achieved, a lower
number of Performance Shares will be allotted, final
allotments of Performance Shares will take place
following the publication of the Company's Interim Report
for the first quarter 2013, recalculation of final
allotments of Performance Shares shall take place in the
event of an intervening bonus issue, split, preferential
rights issue and/or other similar events. In addition,
the maximum financial outcome for a participant, and the
maximum number of Performance shares to be finally
allotted, shall be capped at a value corresponding to 50
percent of the Base Salary of each member of the Group
Management and 37,5 percent of the Base Salary of each
other manager, upon termination of the employment within
the Group during the vesting period, the right to receive
final allotments of performance shares normally lapses,
in addition to what is set out above, the Board of
Directors shall under certain circumstances be entitled
to reduce final allotments of performance shares or,
wholly or partially, terminate performance share program
2010/2013 in advance and to make such local adjustments
of the program that may be necessary to implement the
program with reasonable administrative costs and efforts
in the concerned jurisdictions, including, inter alia, to
offer cash settlement as well as to waive the requirement
for investing in or allocating saving shares to the
program for participants in such jurisdictions

The GAMCO Global Telecommunications Fund
17.B The Board of Directors has considered two alternative Management For For
hedging methods for Performance Program 2010/2013; either
a hedging arrangement with a bank or other financial
institution securing delivery of shares under the program
or transfers of shares held by the Company itself to
participants in Performance Share Program 2010/2013; the
Board of Directors considers the latter alternative as
its main alternative, however, should the annual general
meeting not approve the proposed transfer of shares held
by the Company itself, the Board of Directors may enter
into a hedging arrangement set out above with a third
party to hedge the obligations of the Company under the
program. Based on the above conditions, the Board of
Directors proposes that no more than 1,560,000
TeliaSonera shares may be transferred to participants in
Performance Share Program 2010/2013 as performance
shares, entitled to receive allotments of performance
shares without consideration shall be such persons within
the Group being participants in Performance Share Program
2010/2013. Further, subsidiaries shall be entitled to
acquire shares without consideration, in which case such
Company shall be obliged, pursuant to the terms and
conditions of Performance Share Program 2010/2013, to
immediately transfer the shares to such persons within
the Group that participate in performance share program
2010/2013, transfers of shares shall be made without
consideration at the time and on such additional terms
and conditions that participants in Performance Share
Program 2010/2013 are entitled to receive final allotment
of shares, the number of shares that may be transferred
shall be subject to recalculation in the event of an
intervening bonus issue, split, preferential rights issue
and/or other similar events
