For shares acquired by transfer, the voting rights are however further conditional upon the shareholder having had the shares registered in the register of shareholders or otherwise made known or documented the acquisition at the time of the General Meeting being called.

The Supervisory Board Tivoli A/S
Presentation of the annual report for the period 1 April 2008 to 31 December 2008 for approval.
Tivoli's profit after tax for 2008 (1 April – 31 December 2008) was DKK 56.5 million. As the accounting year only consists of nine months (April-December) as a result of the conversion of financial statements, and the months of January to March showed a loss, the Supervisory Board recommends that a dividend of 25% of the expected result for the period of 1 April 2008 – 31 March 2009 be paid, as stated in the 2007/08 annual report, after tax. The expected profit stated in the 2007/08 report was stated as DKK 40-50 million before tax. The dividend comprises DKK 8.4 million and is calculated as 25% of DKK 33.8 million (DKK 45 million after 25% tax).
a) The Supervisory Board proposes the motion that the period of office served by Board members elected by the Annual General Meeting is reduced from two years to one, and proposes that section 19, part 2 of the Articles of Association is changed to the following:
"Those members elected by the Annual General Meeting shall be elected for 1 year at a time. Members stepping down can be re-elected."
"That the Alley and the Merry Corner with Vaffelbageriet and the Galley Ships are retained unchanged, as they can be regarded as worthy of preservation and character-defining elements of Tivoli."
The supervisory board does not support the proposal.
Hans Skov Christensen is eligible for election. The Supervisory Board recommends he be re-elected.

The Supervisory Board recommends re-election of PricewaterhouseCoopers.
For adoption of the proposals submitted in item 4a (change to section 19, part 2 of the Articles of Association), the proposal must be adopted by at least 2/3rds of the votes given and share capital voting rights represented at the Annual General Meeting, cf. section 18, part 2 of the Articles of Association. For adoption of the proposals in items 4b (authorisation for the Supervisory Board) and 4c (shareholder's proposal), a majority of the votes given must adopt the proposal.
