A Shareholders´ Meeting will be held at Skeljungur hf. on Monday May 27, 2019, at 16:00 pm at the Company´s headquarters at Borgartún 26, 8th floor, 105 Reykjavík, Iceland.

The deadline for declaring candidacy for the Board of Directors of Skeljungur has passed.

  • Birna Ósk Einarsdóttir

For further information on each candidate, please find a short bio attached and the Nomination Committee’s report on Skeljungur’s website.

According to the Articles of Association of the Company the Board of Directors shall be comprised of five members and the ratio of each gender within the Board shall be no less than 40%.  Elections will be repeated until the results are legitimate in regard to gender ratios.

The Board of the Company received a rightful claim for a multiplication election from shareholders that control more than 1/10 of the share capital, cf. Article 63(7) of Act No 2/1995 on Public Limited Companies.  A multiplication election will therefore be applied for the election of members of the Board of Directors at the meeting.

A multiplication election is carried out as follows: There shall be an election between individuals.  The weight of each vote shall be multiplied by the number of Directors to be elected and each shareholder may divide his voting power, thus computed, in any proportion he chooses himself on to as many persons as are to be elected or fewer.  In case a ballot ticket does not indicate the division of votes between those for whom these are cast, they shall be divided equally.

The Board of Directors received a request from a shareholder, 365 miðlar hf., on May 17, regarding having specific matters taken for consideration at the Shareholders´ Meeting, cf. article 86(1). I.e. a proposal of share capital reduction and an amendment proposal to the Board´s proposal regarding a change to the Articles of Association, regarding the repurchasing program only being limited to 10% of the share in Skeljungur. Having received a legal opinion the Board concluded that because of the nature of the proposals the notice had not been enough to introduce the matters to the agenda of the meeting. The shareholder was encouraged to address the matters at the meeting and request a vote, which results would be a guidance to the Board. The shareholder could also request a new shareholders´ meeting, regarding the abovementioned matters.

365 miðlar´s letter is enclosed. (NB in Icelandic.)
