Press release Holmen Annual General Meeting 2022

Holmen's Annual General Meeting on March 30 was held by postal voting.

Due to the coronavirus, the Board of Directors has decided that the Annual General Meeting shall be organised such that shareholders solely cast their votes through postal voting in accordance with the Swedish Act on Temporary Exemptions to Facilitate the Execution of General Meetings in Companies and Associations, which come into force on 1 March 2022. Information about the resolutions passed at the AGM will be published on 30 March 2022 as soon as the results of the postal voting have been definitively collated.

Shareholders wishing to exercise their voting rights and participate in the AGM must:

  • Be registered as shareholders in the shareholder register generated by Euroclear Sweden AB showing the situation on Tuesday, 22 March 2022. In order to be able to exercise their voting rights and participate in the AGM, shareholders whose shares are registered in the name of a trustee must temporarily reregister their shares in their own name (so-called voting right registration) so that the person concerned is included in the shareholder register generated on this day. Such re-registration should be requested in advance from the trustee, in accordance with the trustee’s procedures, by such time as the trustee deems appropriate. Voting right registrations effected by the trustee by no later than Thursday, 24 March 2022 will be included in the shareholder register generated.
  • Register with the Company by casting their postal votes as instructed below so that they are received by the Company no later than Tuesday, 29 March 2022.
