    Holder of nominee-registered shares

    A holder of nominee-registered shares is entitled to participate in the Annual General Meeting based on the shares which would entitle him/her to be entered in the shareholders' register kept by Euroclear Finland Oy on the record date for the General Meeting 17 March 2023. Participation also requires that the shareholder is temporarily registered in the shareholders' register held by Euroclear Finland Oy by 24 March 2023 by 10:00 (EET) at the latest. In the case of nominee-registered shares, this is considered as registration for the Annual General Meeting. Changes in the shareholding after the record date of the General Meeting do not affect the right to participate in the Annual General Meeting or the shareholder's voting rights.


    The holder of nominee-registered shares is advised to request well in advance the necessary instructions from his/her custodian bank regarding the temporary registration in the register of shareholders, the issuing of proxies and voting instructions, registration and attendance at the General Meeting and advance voting.

    Remote participation


    A shareholder entitled to attend the Annual General Meeting may participate in the meeting and exercise his/her rights fully during the meeting not only by attending at the meeting physically but remotely.


    A shareholder or proxy who has registered to attend the Annual General Meeting at the meeting venue may change his/her participation to remote participation. There is no need to notify the company of the change separately. Remote participation takes place via a remote participation link sent to the telephone number and/or e-mail address provided when registering for the Annual General Meeting.
