Annette Clancy has informed the Nomination Committee that she will not be available for re-election as Chair or ordinary member of the Board of Directors at the Annual General Meeting 2025. However, she will remain an ordinary member of the Board until that time.
"We are pleased to propose David Meek as the new Chair of the Board of Directors of Sobi. David has a solid experience from both management and board work in the international pharmaceutical industry. The Nomination Committee would like to express our sincere gratitude to Annette for her invaluable contribution during her ten years in the Board of Directors of Sobi, and especially for her contribution as Chair of the Board of Directors during the past year. With short notice, Annette accepted the role as the Chair of Sobi following the sudden resignation of the former Chair due to health reasons. She stepped up in a difficult situation and has steered the company very successfully over the last year, says Daniel Nodhäll, Chair of the Nomination Committee.
Sobi intends to convene an Extraordinary General Meeting to be held in December 2024. If the Extraordinary General Meeting resolves in favour of the Nomination Committee's proposal, the Board of Directors will thereafter consist of the following members elected by a General Meeting: David Meek (Chair), Annette Clancy, Christophe Bourdon, Zlatko Rihter, Helena Saxon, Staffan Schüberg, Filippa Stenberg and Anders Ullman.
The Nomination Committee of Sobi consists of Daniel Nodhäll (Chair) appointed by Investor AB, Annette Clancy (Chair of the Board), Thomas Ehlin appointed by the Fourth Swedish National Pension Fund and Anders Hansson appointed by AMF - Tjänstepension och Fonder. The Nomination Committee's complete proposals will be presented well in advance of the Extraordinary General Meeting.
