At the annual general meeting held on 15 April 2004 it was adopted to amend the Articles of Association, implying that the company will exclusively transfer documents electronically and use electronic mails in its communication with the shareholders.
This is a consequence of a recent change of article 65 b of the Danish Companies Act, enabling companies to replace paper-based documents by electronic communication.
Among other things this amendment will imply that the company will not be obliged to call the shareholders to annual general meetings and extraordinary general meetings, as up till now, in the newspapers Berlingske Tidende and Frederiksborg Amts Avis, or individually to shareholders, who have requested to be called by letter.
In the future all general meetings will be called electronically via the submission service of the Copenhagen Stock Exchange at no less than eight days’ and no more than four weeks’ notice. We recommend shareholders who wish to be called by e-mail, to provide an e-mail address where to send the notice of meeting, the agenda, and proposals to be discussed by the general meeting.
The shareholders are still entitled to inspect printed copies of the agenda, complete proposals to be discussed by the general meetings and the audited annual report signed by the management and the directors, as these documents shall be available for inspection at the company’s office no later than eight days prior to a general meeting pursuant to the Danish Companies Act.
Electronic preliminary statements of accounts, annual reports, semi-annual reports, quarterly reports, notifications to the Stock Exchange and general information from the company to the shareholders can also be required on this website. These documents will be mailed to the shareholders immediately after being submitted to the Copenhagen Stock Exchange.
Alternatively the documents can be downloaded from this website.
We should like to point out that under certain circumstances the company is still legally obliged to insert an advertisement in Statstidende and notify the shareholders by letter. To meet this obligation the company will build up a database with the shareholders’ e-mail addresses as well as their postal addresses.
The modifications of the Articles of Associations imply that the individual shareholder will be responsible for providing Topsil with an e-mail address for electronic documents, and updating this information.
