Alma Media Corporation Stock Exchange Release August 19, 2010 at 16.20 (EEST)
DECISIONS TAKEN BY THE EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING OF ALMA MEDIA CORPORATION
Alma Media Corporation held an Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) today. The
meeting was convened at the request of Oy Herttaässä Ab, a shareholder of Alma
Media. A total of 165 shareholders representing 79.8% of all shares and votes
attended the EGM.
Oy Herttaässä Ab proposed to the EGM that the number of members of the Board of
Directors of Alma Media Corporation be complemented by one and that Kai Mäkelä
be elected member of the Board of Directors. After a vote, the EGM decided not
to increase the number of members of the Board of Directors. Lauri Helve, Seppo
Paatelainen, Kai Seikku, Erkki Solja, Catharina Stackelberg-Hammarén, Kari
Stadigh and Harri Suutari, who were elected Board members in the Annual General
Meeting held on March 11, 2010, will continue as members of the Board of
Directors of Alma Media.
In addition, Kai Telanne, President and CEO of Alma Media Corporation, presented
to the EGM a clarification regarding the investment in a new printing facility
in Tampere, Finland, at the request of Oy Herttaässä Ab. Since the investment
belongs under the general jurisdiction of the Board of Directors, and as the
Board of Directors had not submitted the matter for approval by the EGM, the EGM
made no decisions on the matter.
