- The maximum level for other benefits has been aligned across the group of senior executives. Previously, the maximum value was 15 percent of the fixed annual salary for senior executives excluding the CEO, while the CEO was limited to 10 percent of the fixed annual salary. Under the current proposal, the limit is 10 percent of the fixed annual salary for all senior executives.

Acquisitions may be made of such number of shares that the company's holding does not exceed ten (10) percent of all shares in the company.
