HANZA’s Nomination Committee for the 2021 AGM appointed

Please note that this English translation is for information purposes only.
In case of any discrepancies between this version and the Swedish version of this information, the Swedish version shall prevail.

In accordance with a resolution passed at HANZA Holding AB's last Annual General Meeting, a nomination committee consisting of four members, including the Chairman of the Board, shall be appointed by the three shareholders or ownership groups controlling the largest number of votes. Since one of the main owners is also the Chairman of the Board, and thus already has a seat on the Nomination Committee, he has waived his right to nominate a member in favor of the fourth largest shareholder.

The Nomination Committee for the 2021 AGM is now appointed and consists of the following members:

• Per Holmberg, Chairman of the Nomination Committee, appointed by Ritter Beteiligungs GmbH
• Gerald Engström, own holding
• Massimo Franzé, own holding
• Francesco Franzé, Chairman of the Board of Directors

The members of the Nomination Committee are appointed by shareholders in HANZA Holding AB, who combined represent approximately 40 percent of the number of shares and votes in HANZA Holding AB as of August 31, 2020.

Prior to the 2021 AGM, the Nomination Committee shall submit proposals for resolutions on the following issues: Election of Chairman of the General Meeting, Chairman of the Board, Board members, auditors, remuneration to the Board and auditors, and principles for the constitution of the Nomination Committee as well as undertakings ahead of the 2022 AGM. The proposal will be presented in the notice convening the 2021 AGM, as well as on the company’s website www.hanza.com.

Shareholders who wish to submit proposals to the Nomination Committee can do so by email to info@hanza.com (please use headline “Nomination Committee”). In order for the Nomination Committee to be able to process received proposals in a constructive manner, these should be received by the Nomination Committee no later than February 1, 2021.

HANZA’s next AGM will be held at the company’s new offices in Kista on Monday, April 26, 2021. A request to have a matter considered at the meeting must be submitted in writing and must be received no later than March 15, 2021 in order to be included in the notice.
