Change in Nomination Committee prior to AGM 2023 in SynAct Pharma

SynAct Pharma AB (publ) (“SynAct”) announced today that the composition of the Nomination Committee prior to the Annual General Meeting on 25 May 2023 has changed as a result of a change of ownership.

Following the change, the Nomination Committee for the 2023 Annual General Meeting consists of the following persons:

  • Niels Ankerstjerne Sloth, appointed by Bioinvest ApS;
  • Per Colleen, appointed by TomEnterprise Public Capital AB;
  • Jens Bager, appointed by GL Capital AB; and
  • Torbjørn Bjerke, Chairman of the Board.

Jens Bager remains as Chairman of the Nomination Committee.

The Nomination Committee's tasks for the Annual General Meeting are to propose a Chairman for the Annual General Meeting, election of Chairman and other Board members, fees to the Board of Directors, divided between the Chairman and other members, and any fees for committee work and election of auditor and fees to the auditor. Finally, the Nomination Committee will propose principles for appointing the Nomination Committee (if the Nomination Committee considers that the current principles and instructions should be updated).
