Proxy representative
A shareholder may participate in the Annual General Meeting and exercise their rights at the meeting by way of proxy representation. A proxy representative may also vote in advance in accordance with the instructions provided herein. The proxy representative shall authenticate in the electronic registration service and advance voting (if applicable) personally with strong authentication, after which they will be able to register and vote in advance on behalf of the shareholder whom they represent.
A proxy representative shall produce a dated proxy document or otherwise in a reliable manner demonstrate their right to represent the shareholder at the Annual General Meeting. Providing the right to represent can be done by using the suomi.fi e-authorizations service available in the electronic registration service.
When a shareholder participates in the Annual General Meeting by means of several proxy representatives representing the shareholder with shares on different securities accounts, the shares by which each proxy representative represents the shareholder shall be identified in connection with the registration for the Annual General Meeting.
Possible proxy documents shall be delivered primarily as an attachment as part of the electronic registration, or alternatively, through email to agm@innovatics.fi or as originals to the address Innovatics Oy, Yhtiökokous / Sampo Oyj, Ratamestarinkatu 13 A, FI-00520 Helsinki, Finland before the end of the registration period.
Delivering of a proxy prior to the end of the registration period is considered as registration for the meeting if all required information for registration described above is given.
Shareholders may also use the electronic Suomi.fi authorisation service instead of a traditional authorisation. In such case, the shareholder authorises a representative in the Suomi.fi service at www.suomi.fi/e-authorizationsexternal link by using the category “Representation at a general meeting”. The representative shall in connection with the registration to Innovatics’ general meeting service identify oneself through strong electronic identification. After that, the electronic authorisation will be proofed automatically. Online banking credentials or a mobile certificate may be used for strong electronic identification.
