Samsung Electronics to Hold Shareholders' Meeting on March 16... Electronic Voting Available

Agenda for Approval of Financial Statements, Appointment of Outside/Inside Directors and Audit Committee Members, and Approval of Director Compensation Limits

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Sun-mi] Samsung Electronics announced on the 15th that it will hold the 53rd Annual General Meeting of Shareholders at the Suwon Convention Center in Gyeonggi-do on March 16.

At this shareholders' meeting, the agenda items to be presented include ▲approval of financial statements ▲appointment of outside directors (Kim Han-jo, Han Hwa-jin, Kim Jun-sung) ▲appointment of inside directors (Kyung Kye-hyun, Roh Tae-moon, Park Hak-gyu, Lee Jung-bae) ▲appointment of audit committee members (Kim Han-jo, Kim Jong-hoon) ▲approval of director remuneration limits, among others.

Since 2020, Samsung Electronics has introduced an electronic voting system that allows shareholders to exercise their voting rights without attending the shareholders' meeting in person. Shareholders can participate in electronic voting from 9 a.m. on March 6 until 5 p.m. on March 15.

Shareholders can register their shareholder information in the electronic voting system, check the convocation notice and detailed information on each agenda item, and exercise their voting rights by clicking the 'Vote' button for each agenda item. Additionally, considering shareholder convenience and the COVID-19 situation, Samsung Electronics has introduced online broadcasting of the shareholders' meeting venue since last year.

In early March, an advance application guide for watching the online broadcast will be posted on the Samsung Electronics website. Shareholders can apply to watch the online broadcast and register questions for each agenda item through a separately prepared site. The application period is the same as the electronic voting participation period (March 6, 9 a.m. to March 15, 5 p.m.). Shareholders who apply can watch the entire shareholders' meeting in real time and ask questions.

However, under current law, it is not possible to vote online on the agenda items while watching the online broadcast on the day of the shareholders' meeting, so shareholders must exercise their voting rights in advance through electronic voting or apply for proxy voting. A quarantine pass will be implemented at the shareholders' meeting venue, and if government guidelines on access to the meeting venue change, the company will provide guidance through its website.
