On April 22, 2022, U+ held a Special General Assembly in order to amend its our initial Bylaws. These changes are meant to allow our Supervisory board to work more efficiently, by extending the term of its members from one to two years. In order to ensure some continuity, one half of the board will be renewed every year.
This Assembly answered two questions:
- Do you approve the change in the bylaws? Yes: 88.3%, Abstain: 11.7%.
- Do you agree to extend the term duration of the current members of the board by one year? Yes: 100%.
The exact terms of the proposed changes are described below.
