Announcement on Convening of the Ordinary Meeting of Shareholders of the Joint Stock Company "Conexus Baltic Grid"

The Board of the Joint Stock Company "Conexus Baltic Grid" (hereinafter – the Company), pursuant to Section 268, Paragraph one and Section 269, Paragraph one and two of the Commercial Law, convenes the ordinary meeting of shareholders of the Company, to be held on 30 April 2020 at 10.00 am at the Company’s premises at 14 Stigu Street, Riga. In view of the health emergency situation declared by the government of the Republic of Latvia due to the Covid-19 pandemic, participation in the meeting of shareholders is permitted only from distance, i.e. by delegating their voting power to the proxy – Board of the Joint Stock Company "Conexus Baltic Grid" – by issuing a Power of Attorney and voting instructions on the agenda items. This solution would enable convening a meeting of shareholders with a minimised physical attendance, yet making it possible to take decisions that are necessary for securing the continuity of the Company’s operations.

If you agree to issue a Power of Attorney and Voting Instructions, you are requested to sign both documents and mail them to the Joint Stock Company "Conexus Baltic Grid" at 14 Stigu Street, Riga, LV-1021. You are encouraged, if possible, to sign the documents with electronic signature and e-mail them to [email protected].

When the appended templates of Power Attorney and Voting Instructions are used, there is no need to have a notary’s attestation of the shareholder’s signature.
