6. Election and remuneration of auditor
Ernst & Young Oy (EY) was elected as the company's auditor for a term that will continue until the end of the next Annual General Meeting. Ernst & Young Oy has notified the company that Authorised Public Accountant, Mikko Järventausta, will serve as the company's principal responsible auditor.
The General Meeting resolved to pay the auditor's remuneration in accordance with a reasonable invoice approved by the company.
7. Authorising the Board of Directors to decide on the acquisition of the company's own shares and/or accepting them as a pledge
The General Meeting resolved to authorise the Board of Directors to resolve on the acquisition of a maximum of 2,117,990 shares of the company's own shares and/or accepting the same number of the company's own shares as a pledge, in one or several tranches by using funds in the unrestricted shareholders' equity. The maximum total of shares that will be acquired and/or accepted as a pledge corresponds to 10% of all shares in the company as of the date of the summons to the Annual General Meeting. However, the company cannot, together with its subsidiary companies, own or accept as a pledge altogether more than 10% of its own shares at any point in time. The company's shares may be purchased under this authorisation solely by using unrestricted shareholders' equity.
The shares will be acquired otherwise than in proportion to the share ownership of the shareholders via public trading arranged by Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd at the market price on the date on which the acquisition is made or otherwise at a price formed on the market. The authorisation shall be used e.g. for the purposes of implementing the Board of Directors' share-based compensation, the company's share-based incentive systems or for other purposes as decided by the Board of Directors.
It was resolved that the authorisation revokes the authorisation granted by the General Meeting on 8 April 2025 to decide on the acquisition of the company's own shares.
The authorisation is valid until the closing of the next Annual General Meeting, however, no longer than until 30 June 2027.
8. The Board of Directors was authorised to resolve on a share issue and the issuance of special rights entitling to shares
The Annual General Meeting resolved to authorise the Board of Directors to resolve on a share issue and on the issuance of special rights entitling to shares as referred to in Chapter 10 Section 1 of the Finnish Limited Liability Companies Act, in one or more tranches, either against or without consideration.
The number of shares to be issued, including shares to be issued on the basis of special rights, may not exceed 2,117,990, which amounts to 10% of all shares in the company as of the date of the summons to the Annual General Meeting. The Board of Directors may decide to either issue new shares or to transfer any treasury shares held by the company.
The authorisation entitles the Board of Directors to decide on all terms that apply to the share issue and to the issuance of special rights entitling to shares, including the right to derogate from the shareholders' pre-emptive right. The authorisation shall be used e.g. for the purposes of strengthening the company's balance sheet and improving its financial status or for other purposes as decided by the Board of Directors.
The authorisation is valid until the closing of the next Annual General Meeting, however, no longer than until 30 June 2027. The authorisation cancels all previously granted, unused authorisations to decide on a share issue and the issuance of options or other special rights entitling to shares.
The minutes of the Annual General Meeting are made available no later than 15 April 2026 on the website of Robit Plc at https://www.robitgroup.com/investor/corporate-governance/general-meeting/.
