The shareholders of Olink Holding AB (publ) (the
“Company”), reg. no. 559189-7755, are hereby given notice to attend
the Extra General Meeting to be held at 4:00 p.m. CET on Friday
5 July 2024, in the Company’s facilities at Salagatan 16A,
Uppsala. Registration for the meeting commences at 3:30 p.m.
CET.
NOTICE OF PARTICIPATION
Shareholders who wish to attend in the proceedings of the Extra
General Meeting must:
- be entered in the share register kept on behalf of the Company
by Euroclear Sweden AB, as of Thursday 27 June 2024; and
- notify the Company’s head office at Olink Holding AB (publ),
Extra General Meeting 2024, Salagatan 16F, SE-753 30 Uppsala,
Sweden or by telephone +46 (0)18 444 39 70 or via e-mail to
ir@olink.com no later than Monday 1 July 2024. The notification
must contain the shareholder’s name, social security number
(registration number), address, telephone number and the number of
shares represented as well as any attending counsel, maximum
two.
Personal data obtained from the share register kept by Euroclear
Sweden AB, notices and attendance at the meeting and information on
representatives, proxies and assistants will be used for
registration, preparation of the voting list for the meeting and,
where appropriate, the minutes of the meeting. Personal data is
handled in accordance with the Data Protection Regulation (European
Parliament and Council Regulation (EU) 2016/679). For full
information regarding the Company’s handling of personal data,
please refer to our privacy policy:
https://www.olink.com/about-us/integrity-policy/.
To be entitled to participate in the Meeting a shareholder whose
shares are registered in the name of a nominee must, in addition to
providing notification of participation, register its shares in its
own name so that the shareholder is recorded in the share register
on Thursday 27 June 2024. Such registration may be temporary
(so-called voting right registration) and is requested from the
nominee in accordance with the nominee’s procedures and such time
in advance as the nominee determines. Voting right registrations
completed not later than Monday 1 July 2024 are taken into account
when preparing the share register.
The Company intends to enable shareholders to participate
electronically via link. It should then be noted that such a
procedure presupposes that the Meeting first approves that
pre-registered persons participate via link. In the case of
participation via link, there is no support for managing the voting
register, which means that if participants via a link actively want
to influence the Extra General Meeting’s decision, this must be
done by proxy to a person who physically participates in the Extra
General Meeting. If there are registered persons on Monday 1 July
2024 that wish to participate via link, the Company will send out
an invitation with instructions on how to join the Extra General
Meeting electronically.
OPPORTUNITY FOR SHAREHOLDERS TO EXERCISE THEIR VOTING
RIGHTS THROUGH PROXY
Shareholders who do not wish to attend the meeting in person may
authorize a proxy to exercise their voting rights. The power of
attorney is proposed to be presented to the Chairman of the Meeting
or another person whom the shareholder knows will attend the Extra
General Meeting. If the power of attorney is exhibited to the
Chairman of the Meeting, the power of attorney must be combined
with a voting instruction so that the Chairman of the Meeting knows
how to vote under the various decision points. If the power of
attorney is not combined with a voting instruction, then the
Chairman will not be able to represent the shareholder at the
meeting. In other cases, the power of attorney should also be
combined with a voting instruction. If participation will be by
proxy, the shareholder shall issue a written, signed and dated
proxy together with any documents verifying authority. Proxies for
legal entities must also be accompanied by a certificate of
incorporation or equivalent document verifying authority. A copy of
the proxy, the voting instruction and any certificate of
incorporation should, in advance, before the meeting be sent to the
Company at the above address. The original proxy shall, if
applicable, also be presented at the meeting. The Company provides
the shareholders with proxy forms as well as blank voting
instructions, which can be obtained at the Company’s head office or
on the Company’s website www.investors.olink.com by the latest on
Friday 14 June 2024.
Note that the possibility of having a proxy exercise the
shareholders' voting rights at the Extra General Meeting
presupposes that the shareholder has made a notification and is
included in the share register in accordance with what is stated
above in the Notice of participation. Thus, it is not enough to
just submit a power of attorney form.
