In view of the exceptional circumstances surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic and the containment measures imposed in this context, the Board of Directors has decided, pursuant to Royal Decree No 4 of 9 April 2020, to amend the procedure for participation in the General and Extraordinary General Meeting of 13 May 2020 in order to allow shareholders to participate in a manner compatible with the aforementioned containment measures and in such a way that they can ask questions and exercise their voting rights.

Proxy forms, voting forms by correspondence and questions concerning agenda items must be received by Kinepolis no later than Saturday, 9 May 2020. The registration formalities remain identical to those published by the company in its press release of 9 April 2020.
