On 8 March 2000, the Annual General Meeting of Amer Group Plc resolved to sell the shares, which have not been transferred to the book-entry system on behalf of their owners. A total of 15,778 shares on the joint book-entry account were sold on 13 August 2001. The owners or other assignees of these shares are entitled to receive a proportion of the sales proceeds corresponding to the number of the shares in their ownership.
Shareholders or other assignees are required to present their claim to receive their share of the proceeds and surrender the share certificates or other documentary evidence of ownership to HEX Securities Services. The proportion of the proceeds will be paid from the funds to be deposited with the Southern Finland County Administrative Board in exchange for the share certificates or other documentary evidence of ownership. The right to received sales proceeds will expire in ten years from the depositing of the funds.
