Zalando SE: Annual General Meeting 2015
Zalando SE ("Zalando") today held its first Annual General Meeting ("AGM")
in Berlin. The AGM resolved in accordance with all proposals of the
Supervisory Board and the Management Board. Participating shareholders
represented over 90% of the share capital with voting power.
The AGM re-elected Cristina Stenbeck, Lorenzo Grabau, Lothar Lanz, Anders
Holch Povlsen, Kai-Uwe Ricke and Alexander Samwer and appointed the
employee representatives Beate Siert, Dylan Ross and Konrad Schäfers as a
new member of the Board and Yvonne Jamal, Christine de Wendel and Clemens
Kress as substitute members.
The AGM resolved to grant discharge to the Supervisory Board and the
Management Board for the financial year 2014.
The AGM also resolved to:
- Approve the election of auditors for fiscal year 2015 and a review of
the semi-annual financial report 2015.
- Approve remuneration to the first Supervisory Board of Zalando SE.
- Authorize the Management Board to pass resolutions to repurchase own
shares and to use derivatives in connection with the repurchase of own
shares in order to give the Board more options in its efforts to
deliver long-term shareholder value and total return. Zalando's holding
of own shares may not at any time exceed 10 per cent of the total
number of issued Zalando shares.
- Approve to replace the existing Authorized Capital 2014 by the creation
of a new Authorized Capital 2015 in an amount of EUR 94,694,847 (i.e.,
approximately 38.4% of the existing share capital) to enable Zalando
also in the future to cover its financial needs in a quick and flexible
manner.
- Authorize the Management Board to issue convertible bonds and/or bonds
with warrants in order to broaden Zalando's financial possibilities and
to conditionally increase the registered share capital in order to
service the option and conversion rights arising out of these bonds
- Approve the amendment of the Articles of Association of Zalando
regarding the entitlement of the profit participation of new shares,
the Company's first Supervisory Board and the provisions on chairing
the General Meeting
- Approve a domination and profit and loss transfer agreement between
Zalando SE and the wholly-owned subsidiary Zalando Fashion
Entrepreneurs GmbH
At the constituent meeting of the Board following the AGM, Cristina
Stenbeck was elected Chairperson and Lorenzo Grabau Deputy Chairperson of
the Supervisory Board.

meeting of Zalando, Europe's leading online fashion platform. This is a
