Extraordinary General Meetings 2024

Shareholders who have the right to participate in the General Meeting will participate and exercise their power of decision in full and in real time during the meeting using telecommunication connection and technical means.
Shareholders may exercise their right to request information during the meeting orally by using their microphone.
A remote connection to the General Meeting will be arranged via the online general meeting service provided by Euroclear Finland Oy, which includes a video and audio connection to the General Meeting. Participating in the remote meeting does not require paid software or downloads. In addition to an internet connection, participation requires a computer, smartphone or tablet with speakers or headphones for sound reproduction and a microphone for asking questions or addresses. To participate, it is recommended to use the latest versions of the most common browser programs in use. It is recommended to test the network connection and log into the meeting system in good time before the start of the meeting.

The participation link, username and password for remote participation will be sent by e-mail to the e-mail address provided during registration after the expiry of the registration period and approximately two hours before the meeting. Shareholders who have voted in advance can also participate in the General Meeting via the remote connection. The votes cast in advance will be taken into account in the resolution of the General Meeting, regardless of whether such shareholders participate in the General Meeting remotely or not. Shareholders participating in the meeting remotely will be able to change their advance votes during the meeting, should a vote take place.

Further information regarding the general meeting service, additional instructions for proxies representing several shareholders, contact details of the service provider and instructions in case of potential disruptions in the functioning of the service will be available on the Company’s website at citycon.com/egm2024 no later than 22 October 2024. Shareholders are recommended to familiarize themselves with the detailed instructions prior to the start of the General Meeting.

Proxy Representative and Powers of Attorney

A shareholder may participate in the General Meeting and exercise his/her rights at the meeting by way of proxy representation. A proxy representative may also choose to vote in advance in the manner described in this notice.
A proxy representative must produce a dated proxy document or otherwise, in a reliable manner, demonstrate his/her right to represent the shareholder at the General Meeting. If a shareholder participates in the General Meeting by means of several proxy representatives representing the shareholder with shares in different book-entry accounts, the shares, by which each proxy representative represents the shareholder, shall be identified in connection with the registration for the General Meeting.

Proxy documents and advance voting forms should be delivered to Euroclear Finland Oy by mail to Euroclear Finland Oy, Yhtiökokous/Citycon Oyj, P.O Box 1110, FI-00101 Helsinki or by email to yhtiokokous@euroclear.eu before the last date for registration and advance voting, by which time the documents must be received.

If a shareholder delivers a proxy document to the Company in accordance with the applicable instructions before the expiry of the registration and advance voting period, this constitutes due registration for the General Meeting, provided that all required information is included in the proxy documents.

Shareholders that are legal persons can also use the electronic Suomi.fi authorization service instead of the traditional proxy in Euroclear Finland Oy’s general meeting service. In this case, the shareholder that is legal person authorizes an assignee nominated by it in the Suomi.fi service at suomi.fi/e-authorizations using the authorization topic “Representation at the General Meeting”. The assignee must identify himself/herself with strong electronic authentication in Euroclear Finland Oy's general meeting service when registering, after which the electronic mandate is automatically checked. The strong electronic authentication works with personal bank IDs or a mobile certificate. More information on suomi.fi/e-authorizations.

Further information will also be available on the Company’s website at citycon.com/egm2024.

Holder of Nominee Registered Shares

A holder of nominee registered shares has the right to participate in the General Meeting by virtue of such shares, based on which the holder of nominee registered shares on the record date of the General Meeting, i.e. on 31 October 2024, would be entitled to be registered in the Company’s shareholders’ register maintained by Euroclear Finland Oy. In addition, the right to participate in the General Meeting requires that the shareholder has, on the basis of such shares, been temporarily registered in the shareholders’ register maintained by Euroclear Finland Oy based on these shares at the latest by 7 November 2024 at 10.00 a.m. As regards nominee registered shares, this constitutes due registration for the General Meeting.

A holder of nominee registered shares is advised to request, in good time, the necessary instructions regarding the temporary registration in the Company’s shareholders’ register, the issuing of proxy documents and voting instructions, registration for the General Meeting as well as advance voting from his/her custodian bank. The account management organization of the custodian bank shall register a holder of nominee registered shares, who wants to participate in the General Meeting, to be temporarily entered in the Company’s shareholders’ register at the latest by the time stated above and see to the voting in advance on behalf of a holder of nominee registered shares before the due date for the registration. Further information on these matters can also be found on the Company’s website at citycon.com/egm2024.

A holder of nominee-registered shares who has registered for the General Meeting may also participate in the meeting in real time using telecommunication connection and technical means. In addition to the temporary registration in the Company’s shareholders’ register, the real-time participation in the meeting requires the submission of the shareholder’s e-mail address and telephone number and, if necessary, a proxy document and other documents necessary to prove the right of representation to yhtiokokous@euroclear.eu before the end of the registration period for the holders of nominee registered shares, so that the shareholders can be sent a participation link, username and password to participate in the meeting.
