Electrica Launches Electrica IR Mobile App for Online Voting in General Meeting of Shareholders

 

Electrica is pleased to announce the launch of the Electrica IR mobile application designed to facilitate participation and voting via mobile devices (smartphones and tablets) in Electrica's General Meetings of Shareholders (GMS).

"The launch of the Electrica IR App represents a new important step in our digitalization process, through which we want to bring shareholders closer to the company and to offer them modern, accessible and efficient tools for active participation in corporate governance.", said Mr. Alexandru-Aurelian Chiriță, Electrica's CEO.

The App delivers an enhanced experience for smartphone and tablet users, offering a more intuitive and user-friendly interface compared to the web browser version (available since June 2022 at https://electrica.voting.ro/ and accessible from any electronic device-PC, laptop, tablet, or phone). The new App is currently available for download on Android smartphones and tablets in the Google Play Store under the name Electrica IR (LINK FOR DOWNLOAD HERE), and the version of the App for Apple devices will be available as soon as possible.

Shareholders registered in the Shareholders' Register as of the Reference Date, 31 March 2025, can participate and vote online in the GMS meetings scheduled for 29 April 2025, through the Electrica Voting platform on the web starting 7 April 2025, or via the new Electrica IR App starting today.

We encourage shareholders to make use of the Electrica Voting platform-either through the Electrica IR app or the web version at https://electrica.voting.ro/ -and take advantage of the following benefits:

Convenient access from mobile;

·    The ability to participate and vote both before and during the GMS, remotely or on-site, without the need to appoint a proxy or submit paper documents;

·    Real-time bilingual (Romanian-English) audio/video broadcasts of the meetings;

·    Real-time two-way communication, enabling shareholders to address the meeting remotely by submitting written questions and comments for each agenda item via a dedicated section; NEW: the shareholders can join the meeting live via audio/video and speak directly during the meeting;

·    Access to the full agenda and all supporting documents;

·    The ability to cast any type of vote (open, secret, simple, or cumulative);

·    Live viewing of voting results during the meeting, as well as access to detailed voting records from all GMS meetings held since October 2024;

·    Quick access from mobile/tablet through the App;

·    NEW: direct interaction with Electrica through the app by submitting questions or requests, with replies delivered via email or phone;

·    NEW: the option to provide constructive feedback on various topics directly through the app;

·    NEW: shareholders who are individuals can now automatically validate their accounts (including personal data and shareholder status as of the reference date) by scanning their ID using their device's camera-making the voting process even faster;

·    All accounts remain valid for future GMS meetings, provided the user is a shareholder on the respective reference date;

·    Existing users of the Electrica Voting web platform can log into the app using their current credentials-no need to create a new account;

·    NEW: any investor may create an account in the platform and see the convened GMS, as well as the results of those already held, but cannot vote unless he/she is a shareholder on the corresponding reference dates.

Shareholders who prefer to attend in person are kindly asked to arrive at the meeting location (Electrica's Headquarters: 9 Grigore Alexandrescu Street, Sector 1, Bucharest - "Radu Zane" Conference Room) at least 15 minutes before the scheduled start, to allow time for registration.

We also remind shareholders that they may alternatively vote by correspondence or by proxy, submitted via courier/ post or  by email with electronic signature. All related documents must be received by Electrica no later than 24 April 2025 (inclusively).
