Nyrstar NV (the " Company ") held an extraordinary general shareholders' meeting (" EGM ") in Brussels today.
The attendance quorum for items 1 and 2 on the agenda of the EGM was not met, and therefore a second extraordinary general shareholders' meeting will be held for these outstanding items on Thursday, 17 November 2016, in Brussels.
There was no attendance quorum required for the deliberation and voting on item 3 on the agenda of the EGM, which referred to the approval of the change of control provisions of the terms and conditions of the senior guaranteed unsecured convertible bonds due 2022 issued by the Company on 11 July 2016 for an aggregate principal amount of EUR 115 million (the " Bonds "). This item was approved.
