In order to reinforce and guarantee the right of inspection and information of shareholders before the Ordinary General Shareholders’ Meeting, shareholders, regardless of the size of their shareholding, have the right to propose the introduction of one or more items to be discussed in the agenda of the General Shareholders’ Meeting, within five (5) calendar days following the publication of the convening announcement, and provided that the request of the new items includes a justification.
If the request is dismissed by the Board of Directors, the Board must respond in writing to those requests supported, at least by a percentage of shares of five percent (5%) of the share capital, explaining the reasons for its decision and informing the shareholders of their right to raise their proposals during the Ordinary General Shareholders’ Meeting.
In the event that the Board of Directors accepts the request, as the time for shareholders to propose items has elapsed, an addendum of the General Shareholders’ Meeting convening announcement will be published, at least fifteen (15) calendars days before the meeting.
In the same period of five (5) calendar days following the publication of the convening announcement, shareholders may present in a solid basis new Agreement Proposals on issues already included in the Agenda, and the Board of Directors will act accordingly.
On this basis, for the proposals related to the election of the Board of Directors, the following documents must be attached during the aforementioned period:
(i) written communication accepting to be included in the list of candidates for the Board, and
(ii) written communication of each candidate expressing compliance with the independence requirements provided in the second paragraph of Article 44 of Law 964 of 2005, when proposed as such.
Shareholders have the right to request, at least five (5) business days prior to the General Shareholders’ Meeting, information or clarifications deemed necessary through the traditional channels, and/or when it applies, regarding new technologies, or to formulate written questions deemed necessary with respect to matters included in the agenda of the General Shareholders’ Meeting.
Information will be rejected if it results unreasonable, irrelevant, confidential, or when its disclosure puts at risk the competitiveness of ISA and our Group. Likewise, when the response provided to a shareholder generates an advantage position against others, the ISA will guarantee access to such response to the other shareholders.
At ISA’s headquarters in Medellin, via online to our shareholders when they request it, regarding the provisions of Circular 100 – 000002 of the Superintendence of Corporations, an office called “Shareholder Service Office” will be available. It will be supported by the Chief Legal Office and the Chief Corporate Finance Office, with the purpose of making available to shareholders the documents to exercise their right to inspection within fifteen (15) business days prior to the Meeting, such as: financial statements, management report, minutes of the previous meeting, and minutes of meetings of the Board of Directors.
Please review the information we have provided for the granting of proxies.
The proxy or representative of a shareholder cannot split the vote of his represented person, which means that he/she is not allowed to vote with one or more represented shares, in a certain way or by certain people, and with one or other shares in different sense or by other people. This individuality of voting does not oppose that the representative of several shareholders may vote in each case, following in a separate way the instructions given to him/her by each person or each group represented.
The proxy may be submitted through electronic, optical, or similar means, provided that the requirements established in Law 527 of 1999 and the rules that add, modify, or replace it are fulfilled.
Proxies may not be granted to the Company’s administrators or employees.
Consult here the requirements for proxies, non-authorized practices and different proxy models for representation in the Meeting.

The software to be used by FIDUCOLOMBIA will include a database of all shareholders, as well as the list of all ISA’s employees and contractors, with the purpose to automatically reject, from the registry, the proxies granted to ISA’s employees or contractors.
