Forwarding of the voting ballot and accompanying documents
The filled in and signed voting ballot and accompanying documents must be sent
by e-mail to egrupp@egrupp.ee (mailto:egrupp@egrupp.ee) no later than 31 August
2022 at 9.00.
* The voting ballot must be filled in and signed either digitally or by hand
on paper.
* If the ballot is filled in and signed by hand on paper, the ballot must be
scanned and forwarded by e-mail together with a copy of an identification
document (e.g. passport or identity card/ID-card) of the shareholder or the
shareholder's representative, or a copy of the page of the identification
document containing personal data (among else, the copy needs to display the
expiration date and the person's specimen signature) in order to enable
identification of the shareholder.
* If the ballot is filled in and signed digitally, no additional documents
need to be presented to enable identification of the shareholder, if
identification is possible using the digital signature itself (e.g. signing
the ballot with Estonian ID-card, mobile-ID or smart-ID).
* Representative of a natural person-shareholder must also forward a suitably
prepared power of attorney either in Estonian or in English in a format
which can be reproduced in writing.
* A legal representative of a legal person-shareholder must also forward an
excerpt from an appropriate (business) register where the legal person is
registered, which identifies the individual's right to represent the
shareholder (legal representation). A legal person shareholder who is
registered in the Estonian Commercial Register does not have to submit an
excerpt from the register. If the type of representation is other than legal
representation, a suitably prepared power of attorney in Estonian or in
English must also be submitted in a format which can be reproduced in
writing, in addition to the excerpt from a register. In the case of legal
persons registered in a foreign country, the extract from the register must
be legalised or certified by an apostil, unless stipulated otherwise in
international agreements. If the excerpts from a register are in a language
other than Estonian or English, translations to either Estonian or English
by a sworn translator or an official equated to a sworn translator must be
provided. AS Ekspress Grupp may also deem the shareholder's voting right to
be proven if all the required data concerning the legal person and the
representative is contained in a notarised authorisation document issued in
the foreign country and the authorisation document is acceptable in Estonia.
In order to assign a representative, the shareholder may use the template for
power of attorney, which is published on the homepage of AS Ekspress Grupp at
www.egrupp.ee (http://www.egrupp.ee).
