The additional agenda item proposals sent to the Company in accordance with the requirements of the law and the proposals of resolutions or explanations of existing and additional agenda items are published on the Company’s website on the working day after receiving the proposal, also identifying the name of the shareholder who submitted the proposal. The numeration of additional agenda items begins with the number that follows the last number on the agenda in the general meeting notice, i.e. additional agenda items will be added to the numeration of existing agenda items.
