2020 achievements:

Accelerating the application of the electronic AGMs system and the electronic voting system on AGMs decisions (E-voting). The company's decision contributed to accelerating the implementation of the system before the specified date in the possibility of holding AGMs for joint-stock companies during the month of June 2020 after the forced postponement of holding AGMs within a month of March as scheduled due to the spread of the Coronavirus and in compliance with the implementation of the decisions of the Supreme Committee in charge of the impact of the spread of the Coronavirus in preventing gatherings and meetings during that period.

The efforts made by the company in facilitating the process of holding assemblies electronically and voting on its decisions have contributed to the completion of a legal requirement in which companies are required to hold general meetings to approve financial statements, dividends and other items that are usually presented to

the general meetings of these companies.

In line with the current situation at the time, the CMA issued instructions regarding the possibility of holding AGMs electronically by using the Muscat Clearing and Depository platform, which has become a pioneering experience in the region within a short period.
