Annual General Meeting 2020

Rovio takes the coronavirus epidemic very seriously. In order to decrease the risks related to coronavirus and in order to comply with the rules and recommendations imposed by the Finnish authorities while at the same time ensuring the rights of our shareholders and to enable payment of proposed dividend in original schedule, Rovio has decided on several precautionary measures for the Rovio Annual General Meeting (AGM) to be held on March 31:

• Shareholders are strongly encouraged to use the opportunity to follow the meeting through a live webcast  and / or vote by proxy instead of attending the meeting in person;
• Shareholders may exercise their voting rights without physical attendance by issuing a proxy and authorizing Rovio Entertainment Corporation’s General Counsel or another designated person to represent them at the AGM;
• It is not possible to ask questions or vote through the webcast and following the webcast without issuing a proxy is not considered participation in the AGM;
• There will only be minimum attendance of the Rovio’s Board of Directors and Leadership Team members present at the meeting;
• There will be no coffee or other refreshments served;
• The premises open and the reception of registered participants starts at 12.30 pm (instead of 12 pm as announced earlier);
• The meeting will be kept as short as possible while fulfilling all legal requirements.

All shareholders are strongly encouraged to follow the AGM through a live webcast and exercise their voting rights by proxy representation instead of attending the AGM in person.

In order to secure the use of their voting rights, shareholders who are directly registered in the company’s shareholder register are encouraged to use the proxy representation option and to authorize Rovio Entertainment Corporation’s General Counsel with power of substitution to represent and vote their shares on the basis of the proxy template and instructions below:

• All shareholders wishing to be represented at the AGM should, in addition to issuing a proxy document, make sure that they are registered for the AGM in accordance with the instructions set out in the notice to the AGM. Delivery of a proxy document does not constitute registration for the AGM.
