Cancellation of the Extraordinary General Assembly
On September 10, 2020, Coca-Cola İçecek AŞ's (CCI) Board of Directors resolved to invite Our Company's shareholders to the Extraordinary General Assembly meeting to be held on October 5, 2020 to propose dividend distribution to be paid from extraordinary reserves in accordance with the Provisional Article 13/1 of Turkish Commercial Code No. 6102 and Communiqué on the Procedures and Principles Regarding the implementation of the Provisional Article 13 of the Turkish Commercial Code numbered 6102.
However, with the Presidential Decree no. 2948 published in the Official Gazette dated September 18, 2020, it was decided to extend the restriction period for the distribution of profits specified in the aforementioned Communiqué by three months. As a result our Company can not distribute dividends and General Assembly can not approve the dividend distribution proposal. Therefore, also taking into account the pandemic environment, it has been decided to cancel the Extraordinary General Assembly Meeting which was announced to be held on October 5, 2020.
