Shareholders' Meeting of JAXX SE: Schleswig-Holstein's politicians urged to
stand their ground
Kiel, May 18, 2011 - Mathias Dahms, Management Board spokesman of JAXX SE,
today called on Schleswig-Holstein's politicians not to compromise on their
position to date in the negotiations on the reorganisation of the German
gaming market. The refocusing of gaming in Germany was one of the main
topics at the Shareholders' Meeting of JAXX SE, which took place today in
Kiel. 'The legislation being proposed by Kiel is good for the consumer,
economically feasible and perfectly compatible with European law - all that
was recently confirmed by the EU Commission's recent positive verdict on
the notification process,' commented Mathias Dahms. 'That the draft of the
other 15 federal states is seriously flawed was made clear at the start of
this week by Siegfried Kauder, no less, Chairman of the Bundestag's Justice
Committee. He called on the 15 federal states with astonishing clarity not
to pass the planned draft. We can only echo his opinion.'
Other topics covered by the Management Board's report were the positive
performance in the 2010 financial year, the further expansion of the
myBet.com brand and the JAXX Group's positive start to the new financial
year.
The Shareholders' Meeting discharged the Management Board and Supervisory
Board for the 2010 financial year and elected KPMG
Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft as the new auditors for the 2011 financial
year. The shareholders also voted in favour of the change to the authorised
capital and the creation of new conditional capital.
The turnout at the Shareholders' Meeting was 31,1 percent (previous year:
31.6 percent).
The results of the individual votes were:
