Extraordinary General Meeting in Bravida Holding AB

Due to the extraordinary situation resulting from the covid-19 pandemic, Bravida’s extraordinary general meeting will be carried out through advance voting (postal voting) pursuant to temporary legislation. No meeting with the possibility to attend in person or to be represented by a proxy will take place. Hence, the extraordinary general meeting will be held without physical presence. 

Bravida welcomes all shareholders to exercise their voting rights at the extraordinary general meeting through advance voting as described below. Information on the resolutions passed at the extraordinary general meeting will be published on 23 October 2020 as soon as the result of the advance voting has been finally confirmed. 

The shareholders may request in the advance voting form that a resolution on one or several of the matters on the proposed agenda below should be deferred to a so-called continued general meeting, which cannot be conducted solely by way of advance voting. Such general meeting shall take place if the extraordinary general meeting so resolves or if shareholders with at least one tenth of all shares in the company so requests.
