Proxy representation

A shareholder may participate in the Extraordinary General Meeting and exercise their rights at the meeting by way of proxy representation. A proxy representative shall produce a dated proxy document or otherwise in a reliable manner demonstrate their right to represent the shareholder at the Extraordinary General Meeting. 

When a shareholder participates in the Extraordinary 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 Extraordinary General Meeting.

Possible proxy documents shall be delivered primarily through email to agm@sampo.fi or as originals to the address Sampo plc, EGM, Fabianinkatu 27, 00100 Helsinki, Finland before the end of the registration period. 

Delivering of a proxy to the company 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 legal entity authorises a representative in the Suomi.fi service at www.suomi.fi/e-authorizations by using the category “Representation at a general meeting”. The representative shall in connection with the registration to Euroclear Finland Oy’s 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.
