1. Reason for Submission
Given that resolutions were adopted at the Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders of Sawai Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) held on December 21, 2020 (the “Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders”), the Company hereby submits this report pursuant to the provisions of Article 24-5, Paragraph 4 in the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act and Article 19, Paragraph 2, Item 9-2 of the Cabinet Office Ordinance on Disclosure of Corporate Information, etc.
2. Matters Reported
(1) The date of the shareholders meeting
December 21, 2020
(2) Details of the matters to be resolved
Agenda No. 1: Incorporation of the Wholly Owing Parent Company through Sole-Share Transfer
The Company asks the shareholders to approve the share transfer plan for the incorporation of a wholly owning parent company called SAWAI GROUP HOLDINGS Co., Ltd. through a sole-share transfer with the effective date of April 1, 2021 (tentative date) (such share transfer, the “Share Transfer,” and such share transfer plan, the “Plan”).
Agenda No. 2: Partial Amendments to the Articles of Incorporation
The record date system for the General Meetings of Shareholders will be abolished and Article 13 of the current Articles of Incorporation will be deleted, and upon such amendment, subsequent articles from Article 14 onwards of the current Articles of Incorporation will be renumbered accordingly as Article 13 onwards.
These amendments will come into effect on March 31, 2021 on the condition that Agenda No. 1 (Incorporation of the Wholly Owing Parent Company through Sole-Share Transfer) has been approved as originally proposed at the Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders, the Plan has not ceased to be effective prior to March 31, 2021, and the Share Transfer has not been cancelled.
(3) Numbers of voting rights expressing an opinion for, against or abstaining from each of the matters to be resolved; requirements for the matters to be resolved to be approved and the results of voting
Matter to be resolved | For (Number of votes) | Against (Number of votes) | Abstention (Number of votes) | Approval requirements | Results of voting
(Ratio of affirmative votes) |
Agenda No. 1 | 365,131 | 229 | 42 | Note | Approved | 99.28 |
Agenda No. 2 | 365,592 | 213 | 42 | Note | Approved | 99.28 |
(Note) Approval requires at least two thirds of the votes of the shareholders present at the Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders where the shareholders holding at least one third of the votes of the shareholders who are entitled to exercise their votes are present.
(4) Reason for not including some of the voting rights of the shareholders who attended the Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders in the calculation of voting rights above
Having aggregated the number of votes exercised by the day prior to the Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders and the votes exercised by the shareholders who attended the Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders that the Company was able to confirm whether they were for or against the proposal, it became clear whether the matters to be resolved were approved or not. Therefore, the votes of the shareholders who attended the Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders that the Company was not able to confirm whether they were for, against or abstaining from the proposals were not included in the calculation of voting rights above.
