The board of directors has decided, pursuant to the company’s articles of association, that shareholders shall also have the right to exercise their voting rights by postal voting. Shareholders may therefore choose to exercise their voting rights at the general meeting by attending in person, through a proxy or by postal voting.

Right to participate and notice of participation
A shareholder who wishes to participate at the annual general meeting must:

1. be recorded in the share register maintained by Euroclear Sweden AB on May 15, 2024,
2. notified the company of its intention to participate in the meeting in accordance with the instructions set out in the section “Notice of attendance for partici­pating in person or through a proxy” no later than on May 17, 2024, or submitted a postal vote in accordance with the instructions set out in the section “Instructions for postal voting” no later than on May 17, 2024.

Nominee-registered shares
Shareholders whose shares are held in the name of a nominee must, in order to be able to participate at the general meeting and exercise their voting right, temporarily re-register the shares in their own name in the share register maintained by Euroclear Sweden AB (so-called voting right registration). When preparing the share register for the general meeting per the record date, May 15, 2024, voting right registrations completed by the nominee no later than May 17, 2024, will be considered. This means that the shareholders must request that the nominee completes such voting right registration well in advance of May 17, 2024.

Notice of attendance for participating in person or through a proxy
Those who wish to participate in the general meeting in person or through a proxy shall give notice of attendance to the company no later than on May 17, 2024, to Advokatfirman Schjødt, Att. William Hellsten, P.O. Box 715, SE-101 33 Stockholm, Sweden (mark the envelope with “Cinis Fertilizer AGM 2024”) or by e-mail to william.hellsten@schjodt.com with reference “Cinis Fertilizer AGM 2024”. The notice of attendance shall state name or company name, personal identification number (Sw. personnummer) or corporate registration number, address, telephone number, number of shares and, where relevant, the number of accompanying advisors (not more than two).

Shareholders represented by proxy must issue a power of attorney for the proxy. If the power of attorney is issued by a legal entity, a copy of the legal entity’s certificate of registration, showing who has authority to issue the power of attorney, must be enclosed. The original version of the power of attorney and, if applicable, the certificate of registration, should well in advance of the general meeting, be sent to Advokatfirman Schjødt, Att. William Hellsten, P.O. Box 715, SE-101 33 Stockholm, Sweden (mark the envelope with “Cinis Fertilizer AGM 2024”). The power of attorney must not be older than one year unless a longer validity term (however no longer than five years) is specifically stated in the power of attorney. A proxy form is available on the company’s website, www.cinis-fertilizer.com.

Shareholders are not allowed to include special instructions or conditions in the postal vote. If special instructions or conditions are included, such postal voting forms will become invalid. Further information and conditions can be found in the postal voting form.

If the shareholder issues the postal vote by proxy, a written and dated power of attorney shall be enclosed with the postal voting form. If the power of attorney is issued by a legal entity, a copy of the legal entity's certificate of registration, showing who has authority to issue the power of attorney, must be enclosed.
