Update of proposal for new Board members ahead of the Extraordinary General Meeting on 18 October 2023
The Board of Directors' proposal regarding the election of new members of the Board of Directors and the election of the Chairman of The Board of Directors is adjusted due to the fact that a new major shareholder, Blue Horizon Investment ApS, wishes to be represented on the Board of Directors of RightBridge Ventures AB ("RightBridge" or the "Company"). The Board of Directors' proposal under item 7 on the agenda has thus been adjusted. The proposal is supported by the Company's largest shareholder Abelco Investment Group AB.
As announced by the Company through a press release on 29 September 2023, the board of directors has proposed the election of new board members and the election of a new chairman of the board of directors. The Board of Directors is now updating the proposal and announces that, in addition to Board members Kenneth Arnström and Stefan Lindeberg, the Chairman of the Board, Johan Rooth, will also resign as a member in connection with the Annual General Meeting on October 18, 2023. For this reason, the Board of Directors proposes the election of Kin-Wai Lau, Mads Jørgensen and Carl Falkenberg as new members of the Board of Directors, with the election of Mads Jørgensen as Chairman of the Board.
If the EGM resolves in accordance with the proposal, the Board of Directors will consist of Mads Jørgensen (Chairman), Kin-Wai Lau, Magnus Leppäniemi and Carl Falkenberg.
