Electronic general meeting of shareholders - European legislation
Enhance the convenience of shareholders and ensure safe conduct of the general meeting
The general meeting of shareholders may also take place electronically. Shareholders attend the general meeting through sound and video signal transmission and cast their votes in a safe and secure manner. They can arrange their registration for the general meeting, authorisations and digital identification in advance. Shareholders may ask questions before or at the general meeting and make proposals.
Hybrid general meeting
Electronic general meeting
These meetings are held in a chamber in the presence of the management board, notary public, tellers and also the shareholders who want to attend the meeting. Shareholders who wish to monitor the general meeting and cast their vote at a remote location will be provided the possibility to do so. Shareholders who attend the general meeting on-line must also provide their e-mail address and phone number upon log-in. On the basis of this information, a digital identification will be performed upon log-in and the shareholder will receive the data for access and casting vote.
These general meetings will take place strictly remotely and there is no physical contact between the participants. We will take care of a secure video and audio signal, and provide our own application for casting a vote. We will also ensure the necessary technical preparations for smooth performance (the list of the present shareholders digitally signed by the chairman, digital identification of the chairman by the notary public, signed results of the vote, etc.).
