IXONOS PLC EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING DECISIONS

Helsinki, Finland, 2013-01-16 07:00 CET (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ixonos Plc         
Stock Exchange Release          16 January 2013 at 08:00 




The shareholders of Ixonos Plc decided yesterday 15 January 2013 in
Extraordinary General Meeting, according the proposal of the Board of
Directors, to authorise the Board to decide on a rights issue and on issuing
stock options and other special rights entitling to shares pursuant to chapter
10, section 1 of the Limited Liability Companies Act (624/2006) as well as on
transferring treasury shares in one or more lots under the following terms: 


The number of shares to be issued or transferred under the authorisation may
not exceed 40 000 000, which is equivalent to approximately 265 per cent of all
company shares at the time of convening the General Meeting. 

The authorisation may be used to finance corporate acquisitions or other
investments related to the operations of the company, to strengthen the
company’s balance sheet and financial position or for other purposes decided by
the Board of Directors, except to implement staff loyalty or incentive-option
schemes. 


Within the limits of the authorisation, the Board of Directors may decide on
all terms of the rights issue, of the issue of special rights entitling to
shares and of the treasury share transfers. 


The Board of Directors is entitled to decide on crediting the subscription
price to the share capital or, entirely or partly, to the invested
non-restricted equity fund. 


Shares as well as special rights entitling to shares may also be issued, and
treasury shares may be transferred, in a way that deviates from the pre-emptive
rights of shareholders, if a weighty financial reason for this exists as laid
out in the Limited Liability Companies Act. 


The authorisation, which would not revoke any previous share issue
authorisations, is proposed to be effective until the Annual General Meeting
2013. 


The decision requires a qualified majority of at least two thirds of the votes
cast and shares represented at the meeting.
