General meetings - an introduction

Orexo’s highest decision-making body is the General Meeting, at which every shareholder who is entered in the share register and who has provided notification of their attendance within the stipulated time is entitled to participate and vote for the amount of shares held.

Shareholders can also be represented by proxy at General Meetings. One share entitles the holder to one vote at General Meetings, and there are no limits as to how many votes each shareholder can cast at a General Meeting. Resolutions at General Meetings are passed with a simple majority, unless the Companies Act stipulates a higher percentage of the shares and votes represented at the Meeting.
