Shareholders of Vantage Towers AG approve domination and profit and loss transfer agreement with Oak Holdings GmbH

  • Broad approval of domination and profit and loss transfer agreement with Oak Holdings GmbH at Extraordinary General Meeting
  • Pierre Klotz and Alberto Ripepi newly elected to the Supervisory Board

Düsseldorf, 5 May 2023 - At today's Extraordinary General Meeting, the shareholders of Vantage Towers AG ("Vantage Towers") approved the two resolutions proposed by the Management Board and the Supervisory Board with a large majority. The Extraordinary General Meeting was held as a face-to-face meeting in Düsseldorf; a total of approximately 91.7 % of the share capital was represented. In the two previous years, the Annual General Meetings had only been held virtually without the physical presence of shareholders due to the pandemic.

Central to the agenda and the discussions between the shareholders and the Management Board was the planned domination and profit and loss transfer agreement concluded with Oak Holdings GmbH ("Oak Holdings"), which clearly achieved the required majority of 75% with an approval of 98.25% of the voting capital present.

Vivek Badrinath, CEO of Vantage Towers: "We thank our shareholders for their approval of the domination and profit and loss transfer agreement. In the future, we will be able to work together and directly with our new shareholders on our ambitious growth plans to further expand our market position as one of the leading tower operators in Europe."

Pierre Klotz, Group Corporate Finance Director Vodafone Group Plc, and Alberto Ripepi, Group Chief Network Officer and member of the Executive Committee of Vodafone Group Plc, were newly elected to the Supervisory Board. They fill the two positions created by the resignations of Rosemary Martin and Johan Wibergh with effect from 31 December 2022. Klotz and Ripepi were elected for the remaining term of office of the two departing Supervisory Board members, i.e. until the end of the Annual General Meeting which resolves on the ratification of their acts for the 2024/25 financial year.
