On 12 March the Board of Directors of Eimskipafélag Íslands hf. published its proposals to the 2020 Annual General Meeting.
In light of the economic uncertainty in Iceland and the world due to COVID-19 and to ensure that the company maintains its financial strength, the Board has decided to withdraw proposals under items 5 (to reduce share capital in relation to the share-buy back program) and item 6 (to reduce the share capital of the Company) from the agenda with the result that these items will not be tabled to the annual general meeting. The Board will table these proposals to a separate shareholders meeting at a later stage, when the current uncertainty is over.
The deadline to have proposals put on the AGM agenda passed at 16:00 yesterday.
Enclosed is the final agenda and proposals for the 2020 Annual General Meeting.
