The invitation to the Annual General Meeting of EMS-CHEMIE HOLDING AG in Domat/Ems on August 10, 2013, was again followed by a large gathering of 1'890 shareholders. A total of 20'011'420 registered shares were represented, corresponding to 92.45% of shares entitled to vote.
The event was given a musical accompaniment by the talented young opera singers from the "Schlossoper Haldenstein" directed by Ulrich Schwab, and the tambourine society Domat/Ems led by tambourine major Andri Seglias. The shareholders were served a three-course lunch menu and following this, were able to visit the exceptionally successful exhibition on the history of EMS-CHEMIE (already more than 12,000 visitors).*
The Annual General Meeting approved all motions submitted by the Board of Directors, including payment of an ordinary dividend of CHF 7.50 gross and an extra-ordinary dividend of CHF 2.50 gross for each dividend-bearing registered share. Dividend payment will commence on August 16, 2013. EMS shares will be traded ex-dividend from August 13, 2013.
