Correction: CS MEDICA A/S: Notice of Extraordinary General Meeting
“On 20 January 2022 CS MEDICA A/S ("CS MEDICA" or the "Company") sent out a press release to convene an extraordinary general meeting to be held 3 February 2022 at 17:00. The press release lacked more detailed information about (i) the nature of the warrants which the board of directors proposes that the Company shall issue, and (ii) a more detailed presentation of the proposed new board member. Consequently, this press release is sent out to correct the press release sent out 20 January 2022. Finally, the press release sent out 20 January 2022 was wrongly marked under the Swedish Securities Markets Act (2007:528).”
Due to the COVID-19 situation the board of directors urges that no shareholder attends the general meeting physically but instead issues a power of attorney to the board of directors, vote by correspondence or participates in the general meeting through Microsoft Teams

- The incentive warrants
The incentive warrants become eligible for exercise with 1/36 per month from the 1 February 2022.
