Council of JSC Olainfarm: JSC Olainfarm Board Members have made gross violations of authority; changes made in the Board
Today, on April 4th, JSC Olainfarm Council held a meeting, in which, after hearing members of the Board and finding out gross violations of authority and failure to perform their duties, it made a decision to make changes in the Board, by recalling the current Chairman of the Board of JSC Olainfarm Oļegs Grigorjevs and Members of the Board Mihails Raizbergs and Vladimirs Krušinskis.
To ensure the continuity of the company's operations, the Council of JSC Olainfarm decided on urgent changes in the Board. Lauris Macijevskis has been appointed as the Chairman of the Board; Mārtiņš Pūriņš, Signe Baldere - Sildedze and Milana Beļeviča have been appointed as the Members of the Board. Veranika Dubickaya, Mārtiņš Tambaks, and Raimonds Terentjevs will continue their duties in the Board. In the near future, the Board of JSC Olainfarm will be strengthened with business management and pharmaceutical professionals.
JSC Olainfarm Council was forced to take such a decision on changes in the Board, by acquainting with the situation in the company and discovering serious misconduct by the Board. Misleading news about the composition of the shareholders of JSC Olainfarm was recognized, as well as unlawful announcements about the cancellation of the previously announced extraordinary shareholders meeting. It turned out that on April 1st the Board of JSC Olainfarm had signed and submitted applications to the Register of Enterprises of the Republic of Latvia about non-existent and fictitious extraordinary shareholders meeting.
JSC Olainfarm Council has required the Board to turn to law enforcement authorities to verify if the actions of the mentioned Board Members are unlawful.
