To be entitled to participate in the Meeting a shareholder whose shares are registered in the name of a nominee must, in addition to providing notification of participation, register its shares in its own name so that the shareholder is recorded in the share register on Wednesday, August 17, 2022. Such registration may be temporary (so-called voting right registration) and is requested from the nominee in accordance with the nominee’s procedures and such time in advance as the nominee determines. Voting right registrations completed not later than Friday, August 19, 2022 are taken into account when preparing the share register.
OPPORTUNITY FOR SHAREHOLDERS TO EXERCISE THEIR VOTING RIGHTS THROUGH PROXY OR POSTAL VOTING
Shareholders who do not wish to attend the meeting in person may authorize a proxy to exercise their voting rights. The power of attorney is proposed to be presented to the Chairman of the Meeting or another person whom the shareholder knows will attend the AGM. If the power of attorney is exhibited to the Chairman of the Meeting, the power of attorney must be combined with a voting instruction so that the Chairman of the Meeting knows how to vote under the various decision points. If the power of attorney is not combined with a voting instruction, then the Chairman will not be able to represent the shareholder at the meeting. In other cases, the power of attorney should also be combined with a voting instruction. If participation will be by proxy, the shareholder shall issue a written, signed and dated proxy together with any documents verifying authority. Proxies for legal entities must also be accompanied by a certificate of incorporation or equivalent document verifying authority. A copy of the proxy, the voting instruction and any certificate of incorporation should, in advance, before the meeting be sent to the Company at the above address. The original proxy shall, if applicable, also be presented at the meeting. The Company provides the shareholders with proxy forms as well as blank voting instructions, which can be obtained at the Company’s head office or on the Company’s website www.addtech.com/investors-and-media/corporate-governance/general-meeting latest on Thursday the 4 August 2022.
The board of directors in Addtech has resolved that the shareholders in Addtech shall be able to exercise their voting rights by postal voting and voting by e-mail at the Annual General Meeting 2022 in accordance with section 4 of the Act (2022:121) on temporary exceptions to facilitate the execution of general meetings in companies and other associations. Shareholders wishing to exercise their voting rights by postal voting shall send the form for postal voting to Addtech in accordance with the instructions given in the form. The Company provides the shareholders with postal voting forms as well as blank voting instructions, which can be obtained at the Company’s head office or on the Company’s website www.addtech.com/general-meeting/ latest on Thursday the 4 August 2022.
Note that the possibility of having a proxy exercise the shareholders' voting rights at the AGM or by exercising the voting rights by postal voting presupposes that the shareholder has made a notification and is included in the share register in accordance with what is stated above in the Notice of participation. Thus, it is not enough to just submit a power of attorney form or a postal voting form.
