Annual General Meeting
The General Meeting of shareholders is Enzymatica’s highest decision-making body at which shareholders exercise their voting rights. In addition to the Annual General Meeting, Extraordinary General Meetings can also be convened.
Enzymatica’s Annual General Meeting is held in Lund, Sweden, before the end of June each calendar year. Extraordinary General Meetings are convened as needed. Under the Company’s Articles of Association, notices to convene General Meetings must be issued through announcement in the Swedish National Gazette (Sw. Post- och Inrikes Tidningar), as well as on the Enzymatica website. An advertisement about the notice to convene the General Meeting must also be placed in the newspaper Dagens Industri. Prior to each General Meeting, Enzymatica will publish the notice to convene in its entirety in press releases in both Swedish and English.
Right to participate at the General Meeting
All shareholders who are directly recorded in the share register maintained by Euroclear Sweden five weekdays (including Saturdays) prior to the General Meeting and who have notified the Enzymatica of their intention to participate in the General Meeting, are entitled to attend the General Meeting and vote for the number of shares they hold.
In addition to notifying Enzymatica, shareholders whose shares are nominee registered at a bank or other nominee must request that their shares be temporarily registered under their own names in the share register maintained by Euroclear Sweden to be eligible to participate in the Meeting. Shareholders should inform their nominees in good time before the record date.
Shareholders may participate at General Meetings in person or by proxy and may be accompanied by a maximum of two assistants. Shareholders usually have the option to register for Enzymatica’s General Meetings in several different ways, as stated in the notice to convene the meeting.
