General

The Annual General Meeting of Shareholders is held on first convocation when a shareholder is present or represented.

The Extraordinary General Meeting may follow the Annual General Meeting and may validly deliberate if the shareholders present or represented hold 50% of the shares. If a quorum is not achieved, the shareholders will meet on second convocation and no quorum will be required to hold the Extraordinary General Meeting.
