Handicare Group AB (publ) ("Handicare") gives notice of the Extraordinary General Meeting to be held on Monday, December 7, 2020.

In order to reduce the spread of infection and to comply with regulations and general guidelines issued by the authorities, the Extraordinary General Meeting will, in accordance with temporary legislation, be held only by advance voting (postal voting). Shareholders will not be able to physically attend the Meeting in person or by proxy. Instead, Handicare welcomes shareholders to exercise their voting rights at the Meeting by advance voting in the manner described below. Information on the resolutions passed at the Meeting will be disclosed on December 7, 2020, as soon as the outcome of the advance voting has been finally confirmed.

Right to participate

Shareholders who wish to participate at the Extraordinary General Meeting by advance voting must:
  • be recorded in the shareholders' register maintained by Euroclear Sweden AB as of Friday, 27 November 2020, and
  • give notice of their intention to participate no later than Friday, December 4, 2020 by submitting their advance votes in accordance with the instructions under Advance voting below, so that the advance vote is received by the company no later than that day.

For shareholders who have their shares registered through a bank or other nominee, the following applies in order to be entitled to participate at the Meeting. In addition to giving notice of participation by submitting its advance vote, such shareholder must re-register its shares in its own name so that the shareholder is registered in the shareholders' register maintained by Euroclear Sweden AB as of the record date Friday, November 27, 2020. Such re-registration may be temporary (so-called voting rights registration). Shareholders who wish to register their shares in their own names must request that the nominee make such registration. Voting rights registration that has been requested by the shareholder in such time that the registration has been completed by the nominee no later than Tuesday, December 1, 2020 will be taken into account in the preparation of the shareholders' register.

Shareholders may exercise their voting rights at the Meeting only by voting in advance, so called postal voting in accordance with Section 22 of the Swedish Act (2020:198) on temporary exceptions to facilitate the execution of general meetings in companies and other associations.
