Revised agenda for the General Shareholders’
Meeting and two Extraordinary General Shareholders' Meetings to be
held on 2 June 2020
18 May 2020 at 07.00 CEST
Nyrstar NV (the “Company”) has published today a
revised agenda of the general shareholders’ meeting and two
extraordinary general shareholders’ meetings to be held on 2 June
2020, that was published on 30 April 2020, pursuant to a request in
accordance with article 7:130 of the Belgian Code of Companies and
Associations from shareholders holding together 6.8% of the
outstanding shares of the Company. Said shareholders of the
Company have submitted a request to add two additional items to the
agenda of the general shareholders’ meeting and one additional
proposed resolution to the existing agenda item of the general
shareholders’ meeting. The Company has complied with this
request, except for one item of the request, which may not be
included in the agenda of a shareholders’ meeting under the Belgian
Code of Companies and Associations as the shareholders’ meeting
does not have the power to decide on the relevant item. These
shareholders have also submitted a request to add one additional
item to the agenda of the second extraordinary general
shareholders’ meeting and one additional proposed resolution to one
of the existing agenda items of the second extraordinary general
shareholders’ meeting, which the Company has complied with.
The Company refers to the Revised Explanatory
Note from the Board of Directors of the Company which provides
further information on the proposed agenda items as well as the
revised agenda.
The full revised notice, including revised
agenda’s, proposed resolutions and explanatory note can be found on
the Nyrstar website: https://www.nyrstar.be/en/investors/share-and-bondholder-information/shareholder-meetings.
Pursuant to article 7:130 of the Belgian Code for Companies and
Associations, the Company has made amended forms available for
votes by mail and votes by proxy, as well as a revised attendance
form. Proxies and votes by mail that reach the Company prior to the
publication of the revised agenda remain valid for the agenda items
to which the proxies and votes by mail apply, subject, however, to
applicable law and the further clarifications set out on the proxy
forms and voting by mail form.
Finally, Nyrstar informs its shareholders that
the invitation that was published today and on 30 April 2020 sets
out only the modalities of the general shareholders’ meeting and
the two extraordinary general shareholders’ meetings to be held on
2 June 2020. In view of the ever changing circumstances and
governmental measures in respect of the current Covid-19 pandemic,
in Belgium and the countries of residence of the directors, the
Board is not yet in a position to decide on the modalities for the
annual general shareholders’ meeting and the two extraordinary
general shareholders’ meetings. The latter decision will only be
taken when the convening documentation for such meetings is to be
finalized, so as to allow the Board to take into account all
developments date and all relevant circumstances at that moment in
time. The Company confirms that it is its firm intention to
organise the general shareholders’ meetings to be held on 30 June
2020 physically and, if such is not possible in the then current
circumstances, to investigate all other means to allow and continue
the live debate between the Board, the Company’s statutory auditor
and the Company’s shareholders. In this respect, the Company
will of course need to take into account legal and language
restrictions, as well as the fact that all directors reside outside
of Belgium and are hence subject to different travel
restrictions.
