Explanation:

The shareholders of a public limited liability company are entitled, in accordance with their corporatemembership rights, to recall and elect the members of the supervisory board representing the shareholders at the company's general meeting. Accordingly, SDH (Slovenian Sovereign Holding), in its capacity as a shareholder of Luka Koper, d.d. and investment manager of the Republic of Slovenia (which is the majority shareholder of Luka Koper), requested that the management board of the company convene an extraordinary general meeting and, in accordance with the provisions of Articles 274 and 275, in conjunction with Article 295(3) of the Companies Act, place the appointment of the new members of the supervisory board ‒ Borut Škabar, Barbara Nose, Jožef Petrovič, Boštjan Rader and Mirko Bandelj ‒ on the agenda of the general meeting.

One of the key tasks of the SDH in managing the state's capital investments is to ensure the appropriate composition of the supervisory bodies of the companies which are managed by the proposer. Thus, the provision of Article 21 of the Act on Slovenian Sovereign Holding ‒ I (hereinafter referred to as ZSDH ‒ 1) in paragraph 2 explicitly obliges the SDH to vote at general meetings of companies in such a way that the supervisory boards of companies with capital investment of the state as a whole are composed of members who complement each other in terms of expertise and competences (so-called expert composition). For this reason, supervisory boards should include experts in finance, corporate governance, company operations and other professional profiles necessary for effective supervision, given the activity, scope of business and other characteristics of the companies.

Accordingly, SDH has proposed that the candidates listed in paragraph I of the explanation of this item be appointed in place of the recalled members of the supervisory board and the member of the supervisory board who has tendered her resignation, for a term of four years starting on the day following their election at the General Meeting.
