Shareholders may also exercise their right to vote at the General Meeting by voting in advance. Instructions for advance voting are provided in section C.4. “Advance voting” of this General Meeting notice.

A. MATTERS ON THE AGENDA OF THE GENERAL MEETING

The following matters will be considered at the General Meeting:

1. Opening of the meeting

2. Calling the meeting to order

3. Election of person to scrutinise the minutes and to supervise the counting of votes

4. Recording the legality of the meeting

5. Recording the attendance at the meeting and adoption of the list of votes

6. CEO’s review

7. Election of the new Members of the Board of Directors

The Shareholders’ Nomination Board proposes to the General Meeting that the Board be supplemented so that Jan-Elof Cavander and Jari Ålgars will be elected as new Board members. The new Board members will be elected for the term of office lasting until the end of the next Annual General Meeting.

In accordance with the resolution made by the Company’s Annual General Meeting on 16 April 2025, the number of ordinary members of the Board of Directors has been confirmed as five (5), and the Nomination Board does not propose a change with respect to the number of members of the Board of Directors.

Current Board member Carl Haglund has informed the Nomination Board that he will resign from the Board and will continue in the Board until the conclusion of the General Meeting, and as previously announced, Ville Vuori, who previously acted as a Board member, has resigned from his position as a Board member on 19 May 2025. Other Board members elected at the Annual General Meeting on 16 April 2025, Anders Dahlblom, Sari Helander and Anna Miettinen, will continue in their positions until the end of the next Annual General Meeting. Anders Dahlblom will continue as the Chair of the Board of Directors.

Jan-Elof Cavander, M.Sc. (Tech, Industrial Management), is the Chief Operating Officer of Virala Oy and serves on the boards of Emborion Oy, Munksjö Paper AB, Betolar Plc, Greater Than AB, and Luhta Sportswear Company. Previously, he worked as CFO of Purmo Group from 2023–2025, and in various financial leadership positions at Rapala VMC from 2011–2023.

Jari Ålgars, M.Sc. (Econ), has held several executive positions in different industries, including Group President of Kumera Oy from 2023–2024, President Metals at Metso-Outotec from 2020–2022, and Group CFO at Outotec Oyj from 2015–2020.

Jan-Elof Cavander and Jari Ålgars have given their consent to be elected for the duty and the Nomination Board assesses that they are independent of Enersense at the time of submitting the proposal. In addition, Ålgars is independent of any significant shareholders. Cavander is not independent of the Company’s significant shareholders as he holds the position of COO at Virala Oy Ab, which is the parent company of Nidoco AB.

Jan-Elof Cavander and Jari Ålgars will be paid the annual Board member remuneration determined by the Annual General Meeting on 16 April 2025, proportionate to the length of their term. 

Information about Cavander and Ålgars is available on Enersense’s website at https://enersense.fi/investors/governance/general-meeting/.

The Nomination Board has considered the requirements set by Enersense’s operations and Enersense’s diversity principles as it has prepared the composition of the Board of Directors.

2. Holders of nominee-registered shares

A holder of nominee-registered shares has the right to participate in the General Meeting by virtue of shares, on the basis of which the shareholder would, on the record date of the General Meeting on 12 August 2025, be entitled to be registered in the Company’s shareholders’ register maintained by Euroclear Finland Oy. The right to participate in the General Meeting further requires that, on the basis of such shares, the shareholder has been registered in the temporary shareholders’ register maintained by Euroclear Finland Oy on 19 August 2025 by 10:00 a.m. (EEST) at the latest. As regards nominee-registered shares, this constitutes due registration for the General Meeting.

Holders of nominee-registered shares are advised to request the necessary instructions from their custodian well in advance of the meeting regarding temporary registration in the shareholders’ register of the Company, issuing of proxy authorization documents and voting instructions as well as registration and participation in the General Meeting, and, if necessary, advance voting. The account manager of the custodian shall register a holder of nominee-registered shares who wishes to participate in the General Meeting in the temporary shareholders’ register of the Company at the latest by the time stated above, i.e. on 19 August 2025 by 10:00 a.m. (EEST) at the latest, and, if necessary, arrange for advance voting on behalf of the holder of nominee-registered shares before the end of the registration period for holders of nominee-registered shares. For the sake of clarity, it is noted that holders of nominee-registered shares cannot register directly for the General Meeting on the Company’s website, but they must be registered through their custodians instead.

Should they wish, holders of nominee-registered shares that have registered for the General Meeting may also elect to participate in the remote meeting in real time by the use of telecommunications and technical means in the manner described below in section C.5. “Participation instructions”. In addition to the temporary registration into the shareholders’ register, the real-time participation in the remote meeting requires the delivery of the name, e-mail address and telephone number of the shareholder and a possible legal representative or proxy representative and, with respect to legal representatives and proxy representatives, a proxy authorization document and other documents necessary to demonstrate the right of representation by e-mail to the address egm@innovatics.fi or by letter to the address Innovatics Oy, General Meeting / Enersense International Plc, Ratamestarinkatu 13 A, FI-00520 Helsinki, Finland, before the end of the registration period for the holders of nominee-registered shares, by which time the registration needs to be received, so that the holders of nominee-registered shares that wish to participate in the General Meeting can be sent a participation link and password to participate in the remote meeting.

If a holder of nominee-registered shares has authorised their custodian to vote in advance on their behalf, the votes cast in this manner will be taken into account as advance votes of the holder of nominee-registered shares at the General Meeting, unless the holder of nominee-registered shares votes in another manner at the General Meeting.

3. Proxy representatives and proxy authorization documents

A shareholder may participate in the General Meeting, and exercise their rights at the meeting, by way of proxy representation. Should they wish, shareholders’ proxy representatives may also elect to vote in advance as described in this notice. If a proxy representative register for the General Meeting electronically on the Company’s website, such proxy representatives must identify themselves in the electronic registration service and for advance voting personally through strong electronic authentication, after which they will be able to register on behalf of the shareholder they represent. The same applies to voting in advance.

A shareholder’s proxy representative must produce a dated proxy authorization document or otherwise in a reliable manner demonstrate their right to represent the shareholder at the General Meeting. The right of representation can be demonstrated by utilising the Suomi.fi e-Authorizations service available in the electronic registration service.

A model proxy authorization document will be available on the Company’s website at www.enersense.com/investors/governance/general-meeting/ by 4 August 2025 at 2:00 p.m. (EEST) at the latest. If a shareholder participates in the General Meeting through several proxy representatives representing the shareholder with shares on different securities accounts, the shares by which each proxy representative represents the shareholder shall be identified in connection with the registration for the General Meeting.

Possible proxy authorization documents shall be delivered primarily as attached files in connection with electronic registration or alternatively by letter to the address Innovatics Oy, General Meeting / Enersense International Plc, Ratamestarinkatu 13 A, FI-00520 Helsinki, Finland, or by e-mail to the address egm@innovatics.fi before the end of the registration period. In addition to delivering the proxy authorization documents, the shareholder or their proxy representative shall attend to the registration for the General Meeting as specified above in this notice.

If a proxy representative represents more than one shareholder at the General Meeting, the proxy representative is recommended to vote in advance on behalf of all shareholders represented by the proxy representative. Even if the proxy representative represents more than one shareholder at the General Meeting, only one participation link and password will be provided to the proxy representative for all shareholders the proxy representative represents. The proxy representative will therefore not need to log into the service separately on behalf of each shareholder but shall still ensure the exercise of shareholders’ rights by voting on behalf of each shareholder separately.
