Large Shareholder and Board Member Disclosure in [Company Name]

=====================================================

[Company Name] has implemented strict guidelines regarding large shareholder disclosure and Board member remuneration to ensure transparency and accountability.

Large Shareholders

A large shareholder is defined as holding at least 10% of the company’s shares or voting rights. Non-executive Board members are prohibited from participating in executive incentive plans and typically do not receive any remuneration outside of their annual cash compensation.

Board Members

Under the Companies Act, the Board is required to prepare a proposal for a remuneration policy every four years, which is then put to a shareholder vote at the annual general meeting. The Board must also submit a report on the remuneration covered by the policy and put it up for shareholder approval annually.

Security Transactions

Pursuant to the Market Abuse Regulation (MAR), persons discharging managerial responsibilities (PDMRs) and their closely associated persons (CAPs) are required to notify the Securities and Futures Supervisory Authority (SFSA) and the company of any transactions conducted in the company’s listed shares or debt instruments, or derivatives relating to those shares. This includes a prohibition on PDMRs conducting transactions during a “closed period” of 30 calendar days prior to the announcement of an interim financial report or year-end report.

Board Meetings

The process for Board meetings is set out in the company’s governance procedures and is subject to certain requirements under the Companies Act. The quorum for a meeting is more than half of the total number of Board members, and meetings must be convened with reasonable notice and supporting documentation provided to attendees.

General Legal Duties

The principal duty of the Board is to act in the best interest of the company. Under the Companies Act, the Board is responsible for organizing and managing the company’s operations, monitoring its financial position, and ensuring that its organization is structured to enable control over finances.

Corporate Governance Challenges

Key challenges facing the company include:

Increased attention from investors and regulators on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues
The need for the Board to consider non-shareholder interests in decision-making processes

Indemnities and Insurance

While companies are prohibited from indemnifying directors for their liability to the company, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance is permitted.

Corporate Strategy

The Board is responsible for setting the company’s corporate strategy.

Stakeholder Consideration

Under the Companies Act, the purpose of a limited liability company is to generate profit for its shareholders. However, the Board has discretion to consider the interests of other stakeholders as means to achieve this goal. While there are no mandated disclosures on this topic, the company is required to publish a sustainability report.

Employee Representation

Employees with an average number of at least 25 during the most recent financial year are entitled to appoint two members and two deputy members of the Board. Employee representatives have the same rights and duties as non-employee directors, subject to certain additional requirements concerning conflicts of interest.

The company regards its responsibilities to employees, customers, suppliers, and other stakeholders, including the wider community, as essential for sustainable long-term value creation and sound corporate governance.
