Zwipe AS – Notice of Extraordinary General Meeting 15 February 2023
OSLO, NORWAY – 8 FEBRUARY 2023 - Reference is made to the extraordinary general meeting held on 2 December 2022 in Zwipe AS (the "Company" or "Zwipe"), regarding the resolution to complete a guaranteed rights issue in the Company, raising gross proceeds of approximately NOK 100 million (the "Rights Issue”).
Due to the Norwegian Private Limited Liability Companies Act requiring that the subscription period in share capital increases cannot be later than three months from the general meeting's resolution on the share capital increase and because the subscription period for the Rights Issue is planned to begin on 6 March 2023 and end on 20 March 2023, the board of directors of Zwipe (the "Board") calls for a new extraordinary general meeting (the "EGM") to repeat the resolution resolved by the extraordinary general meeting on 2 December 2022 by making the same resolution once again. For the avoidance of doubt, the Rights Issue to be voted on at the EGM is the same Rights Issue as was resolved by the general meeting on 2 December 2022. Further, the Board proposes that the Company's articles of association are amended to facilitate advanced voting at future general meetings.
The EGM will be held on 15 February 2023 at 12:00 hours CET. The general meeting will be held as a virtual meeting on Microsoft Teams.
Please find attached the notice to the EGM. The notice is also available on the Company's website, https://zwipe.com/investors.
The deadline for registration of attendance and proxies is 14 February 2023 at 16:00 hours CET. Shareholders are encouraged to register their notice of attendance and proxies via the link found on the Company's website https://zwipe.com/investors/general-meetings.
