At Norrhydro, supreme decision-making power is exercised by company shareholders at the General Meeting, where they can exercise their right to speak, ask questions and vote.
Annual General Meeting is to be held annually on the date determined by the Board of Directors within six (6) months of the conclusion of the last financial period. The Annual General Meeting resolves on the adoption of the financial statements, the use of the profits indicated by the adopted balance sheet, the members of the Board of Directors' and CEO’s release from liability, the number of Board members, and the remuneration of Board members and auditors. In addition, the Annual General Meeting elects the Board members and auditors and processes any other items included in the notice of the General Meeting.
An Extraordinary General Meeting is to be held in order to address a specific issue whenever the Board of Directors deems it necessary or if an auditor or shareholders who hold at least one-tenth (1/10) of all outstanding shares demand it in writing.
