Press release 26 September 2018
The Extraordinary General Meeting of Mekonomen Aktiebolag (publ) was held on Wednesday, 26 September 2018 at 3.30 p.m., in Stockholm.
The Extraordinary General Meeting resolved to approve the Board of Directors' resolution on a rights issue. To facilitate the completion of the rights issue, the Extraordinary General Meeting further resolved, in accordance with the Board of Directors' proposal, to amend Section 3 of the Articles of Association, whereby the limits of the share capital and the number of shares were changed to minimum SEK 100,000,000 and maximum SEK 400,000,000, and minimum 40,000,000 shares and maximum 160,000,000 shares, respectively.
Under the terms of the rights issue, shareholders in Mekonomen have preferential rights to subscribe for four (4) new shares per seven (7) existing shares, i.e. a subscription ratio of 4:7. The subscription price is SEK 79 per share which, at full subscription, will result in total issue proceeds of approximately SEK 1,621m before costs related to the rights issue. The record date for the rights issue is 1 October 2018 and the subscription period runs from 3 October to 18 October 2018, both dates inclusive.
