SHL announces election of Board Members at AGM

Tel Aviv / Zurich, 12 May 2017 – SHL Telemedicine Ltd. (SIX Swiss Exchange: SHLTN, OTCPK: SMDCY) (“SHL”), a leading provider and developer of advanced personal telemedicine solutions, announced that at the Annual General Meeting of the Shareholders which was held yesterday in Tel-Aviv, Israel, the following members of the Board were elected: Mr. Yi He, Prof. Amir Lerman (re-appointed), Mr. Elon Shalev (re-appointed), Mr. Cailong Su, Mr. Xuewen Wu and Ms. Shenlu Xu. These directors will serve until the next annual general meeting of the shareholders of the Company. None of the candidates for the position of external (independent) director was elected due to the fact that at the AGM it was resolved, based on Mrs. Cai Mengke and Himalaya Assets votes in this AGM, to reclassify these shareholders despite their declarations, and consider them as being deemed controlling shareholders acting in concert, thus, pursuant to Israeli law, not counting their votes with respect to the only external candidate who has met the first condition of majority vote. Therefore, since under Israeli law, a public company is required to appoint two (2) such directors, the newly appointed board of directors will have to reconvene as soon as practicable to convene a special general meeting the agenda of which shall be to appoint same. Mr. Erez Alroy terminated his service as a director as of the Annual General Meeting. Also, the attending shareholders approved all other items on the AGM agenda. For more information Click here
