Notice of extraordinary general meeting in SimCorp A/S

In accordance with Article 14 of the Articles of Association, notice is hereby given of an extraordinary general meeting in SimCorp A/S, Wednesday 14 May 2014, at 1:00 pm, Weidekampsgade 16, 2300 Copenhagen S, Denmark.


The agenda will be as follows:

No. 1

At the annual general meeting held on 31 March 2014, the proposal to reduce the Company's share capital was adopted by a majority of more than two thirds of both the votes cast and of the share capital represented at the general meeting. Since, however, less than 50 % of the share capital was represented at the general meeting the proposal was not adopted, and the Board of Directors therefore makes the proposal at the extraordinary general meeting.

The Board of Directors proposes to reduce the share capital of the Company by nominally DKK 2,000,000 from nominally DKK 43,500,000 to nominally DKK 41,500,000, equivalent to a reduction of the share capital by 2,000,000 shares of DKK 1 each by cancellation of own shares. The reduction of the share capital is executed in pursuance of Section 188 (1)(2) of the Danish Companies Act, after which the reduction is effected by reduction of own shares which means that the purpose of the reduction is payment to the shareholders. The own shares in question were purchased by the Company in the period from 17 October 2012 until 21 November 2013 at a total purchase price of DKK 325,390,276. The purchase price is entered at DKK 0 in the accounts of the Company since the amount has been written off the equity capital. In consequence hereof, it is proposed to amend Article 3, first sentence, of the Articles of Association as follows:

"The share capital of the company is DKK 41,500,000, say forty-one million five hundred thousand 00/100, divided into shares of DKK 1 each or any multiples thereof."

After the reduction there will be full coverage for the share capital and the deposits and capital reserves that are restricted pursuant to the law and the Articles of Association of the Company.

Before the reduction of the share capital is executed, the Company's creditors will be convened via the electronic information system of the Danish Business Authority in pursuance of section 192 of the Danish Companies Act. 4 weeks after the expiry of the notification period of section 192 of the Danish Companies Act the reduction of the share capital shall be finally executed and the following amendment of the Articles of Association if so will be deemed registered.

No. 2

Any other business.
