This is in accordance with the new rules of the German Stock Corporation Act, which were recently created in the wake of the Corona crisis. The event is to be held as an online Annual Shareholders Meeting, without the physical participation of shareholders.

In March, E.ON announced that it would postpone the Annual Shareholders Meeting from mid-May to mid-June, due to the current dynamic developments around the Corona virus. 'This was necessary in the situation, at that time, in light of existing regulatory requirements and to protect our shareholders and employees,' Teyssen said. However, a new legal provision now enables E.ON to conduct the Annual Shareholders Meeting virtually. Teyssen: 'We worked hard to create the conditions necessary and, with the new virtual format, we can now even invite shareholders to a much earlier date.'
The agenda will include a resolution on the dividend for the 2019 financial year. Details on the procedures of the online Annual General Meeting will be included in the invitation, which will be published in due course.
