Notes to the notice of annual general meeting
-
Attending the meeting or vote by proxy.
Shareholders who wish to attend or vote by proxy at the Annual General Meeting must be entered in the share register maintained by Euroclear Sweden on 27th September 2021.
-
Proxies.
As a member of the Company, you are entitled to appoint a proxy to exercise all or any of your rights to attend, speak and vote at the meeting and you should receive a proxy form by post. You can only appoint a proxy using the procedures set out in these notes and the notes to the proxy form.
A proxy does not need to be a member of the Company but must attend the meeting to represent you. Details of how to appoint the Chairman of the meeting or another person as your proxy using the proxy form are set out in the notes to the proxy form. If you wish your proxy to speak on your behalf at the meeting you will need to appoint your own choice of proxy (not the Chairman) and give your instructions directly to them.
You may appoint more than one proxy provided each proxy is appointed to exercise rights attached to different shares. You may not appoint more than one proxy to exercise rights attached to any one share. To appoint more than one proxy you will need a separate proxy form in relation to each appointment. Please state clearly on each proxy form the number of shares in relation to which the proxy is appointed.
If you have not received a proxy form by letter and believe that you should have one, or if you require additional forms, please contact Computershare UK (“Computershare”) at the address in note 6 below.
If you do not give your proxy an indication of how to vote on any resolution, your proxy will vote or abstain from voting at his or her discretion. Your proxy will vote (or abstain from voting) as he or she thinks fit in relation to any other matter which is put before the meeting.
The notes to the proxy form explain how to direct your proxy how to vote on each resolution or withhold their vote. To appoint a proxy using the proxy form, the form must be completed and signed; and:
-
sent or delivered to Computershare by post to Computershare Investor Services PLC, The Pavilions, Bridgewater Road, Bristol BS99 6ZY, UK;
- shareholders can vote online by visiting the following website: www.eproxyappointment.com;
- received by Computershare no later than 2.00 p.m. on 27th September 2021; and
- please see point 1 above regarding re-registration of shares.
In the case of a member which is a company, the proxy form must be executed under its common seal or signed on its behalf by an officer of the company or an attorney for the company. Any power of attorney or any other authority under which the proxy form is signed (or a duly certified copy of such power or authority) must be included with the proxy form.
In the case of joint holders, where more than one of the joint holders purports to appoint a proxy, only the appointment submitted by the most senior holder will be accepted. Seniority is determined by the order in which the names of the joint holders appear in the Company’s register of members in respect of the joint holding (the first-named being the most senior).
