The work of the Nomination Committee and reasoned opinion regarding the nomination committee’s proposal for the board of directors
According to the instruction and rules of procedure for the nomination committee adopted at the extraordinary shareholders’ meeting held on May 18, 2018, the nomination committee shall consist of four members representing the three largest shareholders as per the end of August, together with the chair of the board of directors. The nomination committee has been formed in accordance with the instructions and the composition of the nomination committee was announced on October 1, 2021.
The nomination committee has held four meetings. The nomination committee has been presented with the board of director’s self-assessment, which was performed and presented by an external consultant based on a questionnaire and individual interviews. The nomination committee was also presented with the board’s view on future challenges to the board and the company, and met with the CEO for an update on Better Collective’s business model and future prospects. The nomination committee has further interviewed all members of the board of directors. The nomination committee motivates its proposal for the board of directors as follows:
The nomination committee has aspired to present at the annual general meeting a proposal which includes persons with appropriate experience and competence in fields that are crucial to the company. Diversity as regards to age, gender, education, professional background and other factors have been taken into account. The company has applied a diversity policy, in compliance with section 99 b of the Danish Financial Statements Act as well as rule 4.1 of the Swedish Corporate Governance Code (the “Code”), when compiling its proposal for the board of directors. The nomination committee has also assessed the size of the board and any possible need for renewal. The nomination committee has finally also considered the requirements regarding indpendency in the Code.
The nomination committee has concluded that the proposed board of directors meets all stated as the proposed composition of the board of directors consists of two women and four men. The gender diversity is thus 33 % / 67 %, which, in the nomination committee’s opinion, is consistent with the requirement of an equal gender balance. The nomination committee proposes a re-election of Jens Bager (also to be reelected as chair of the board of directors), Therese Hillman, Klaus Holse, Leif Nørgaard, and Petra von Rohr.
If the proposal to appoint a vice chair is adopted in accordance with the recommendation of the board of directors, the nomination committee proposes that Therese Hillman is elected as vice chair of the board of directors in the period until the next annual general meeting.
The nomination committee believes that the proposed board of directors has the qualifications, experience and breadth appropriate to Better Collective’s operations, phase of development and other relevant circumstances. In the nomination committee’s opinion, all proposed board members are to be considered as independent in relation to the company, its management, and major shareholders.
Information on the board members proposed for re-election can be found at the company website and in the annual report.
The nomination committee proposes no changes to the principles for appointment of the nomination committee.

Despite its relative newcomer status, the Moneymaker Tour has made a name for itself, recently being voted the third most popular live poker tournament series behind only the World Series of Poker and the World Poker Tour, in a State of Poker survey. Since its inception, there have been eight events throughout Florida, Cincinnati and Houston.
The Tour has also recently announced new venues including a first visit to the birthplace of the Moneymaker boom with an event in Las Vegas from June 28 – July 6 at MGM Grand and its first international Main Event at Casino Aruba in October.
“Hard Rock Casino Cincinnati will team up with the Moneymaker Tour for a return in 2024” said Christopher Herbert, Hard Rock Cincinnati Manger of Poker & Sportsbook. “Hard Rock Cincinnati is grateful to be a part of the fastest growing poker tour in 2023. Chris Moneymaker, Tony Burns and their staff delivered an incredible experience for our guests during the 2023 Moneymaker Tour stop. There’s no better place to be in September 2024 than Cincinnati Ohio!”
“After an amazing series last September, we are excited to return to Hard Rock Casino Cincinnati”, said Tony Burns, Executive Manager of the Moneymaker Tour. “Continuing to partner with one of the most recognisable brands in the world amplifies our reach, resonates with our audience, and rocks our business to a whole other level.”
