Participation at the meeting venue
A shareholder who wishes to participate in the Annual General Meeting at the venue in person or represented by a proxy must (i) be recorded as a shareholder in the share register maintained by Euroclear Sweden AB relating to the circumstances on Tuesday April 29, 2025, and (ii) no later than Friday May 2, 2025 give notice by post to BICO Group AB (publ), AGM 2025, Grafiska vägen 2B, SE-412 63 Gothenburg, Sweden or via e-mail to ir@bico.com. When providing such notice, the shareholder shall state name, personal or corporate registration number, address, telephone number and the number of any accompanying assistant(s) (maximum two assistants) as well as information about any proxy.
If a shareholder is represented by proxy, a written, dated proxy for the representative must be issued. A proxy form is available on the Company’s website, www.bico.com. If the proxy is issued by a legal entity, a certificate of registration or equivalent certificate of authority should be enclosed. To facilitate the registration at the Annual General Meeting, the proxy and the certificate of registration or equivalent certificate of authority should be sent to the Company as set out above so that it is received no later than Friday May 2, 2025.
Participation by advanced voting
A shareholder who wishes to participate in the Annual General Meeting by advance voting must (i) be recorded as a shareholder in the share register maintained by Euroclear Sweden AB relating to the circumstances on Tuesday April 29, 2025, and (ii) give notice no later than Friday May 2, 2025, by casting its advance vote in accordance with the instructions below so that the advance vote is received by BICO Group AB (publ) no later than on that day.
A shareholder who wishes to participate in the Annual General Meeting at the venue in person or represented by a proxy must give notice thereof in accordance with what is set out under Participation in the Annual General Meeting at the venue above. This means that a notification by advance vote is not sufficient for a person who wishes to participate at the venue.
A special form shall be used when advance voting. The advance voting form is available on the Company’s website www.bico.com. A completed and signed form may be submitted by post to BICO Group AB (publ), AGM 2025, Grafiska vägen 2B, SE-412 63 Gothenburg or via e-mail to ir@bico.com. The completed form shall be received by BICO Group AB (publ) not later than Friday May 2, 2025. The shareholder may not provide special instructions or conditions in the voting form. If so, the vote (i.e., the advance vote in its entirety) is invalid. Further instructions and conditions are included in the form for advance voting.
If a shareholder votes by proxy, a written and dated proxy shall be enclosed to the advance voting form. A proxy form is available on the Company’s website www.bico.com. If the shareholder is a legal entity, a certificate of registration or equivalent certificate of authority should be enclosed. If a shareholder has voted in advance and then attends the Annual General Meeting in person or through a proxy, the advance vote is still valid except to the extent the shareholder participates in a voting procedure at the Annual General Meeting or otherwise withdraws its casted advance vote. If the shareholder chooses to participate in a voting at the Annual General Meeting, the vote cast will replace the advance vote with regard to the relevant item on the agenda.
Nominee-registered shares
To be entitled to participate in the Annual General Meeting, a shareholder whose shares are held 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 relating to the circumstances on Tuesday April 29, 2025. Such registration may be temporary (so-called voting right registration) and is requested from the nominee in accordance with the nominee’s procedures and in such time in advance as the nominee determines. Voting right registrations completed by the nominee not later than Friday May 2, 2025, are taken into account when preparing the share register.
