Board of Directors

Unlike in most joint stock companies incorporated in Poland, where the managing and supervisory authorities (a management board and a supervisory board) are separate and independent, the governing powers in Huuuge, Inc. are vested in one corporate body, the Board of Directors.

For details about each member of the Board of Directors please see the “About Us / Board of Directors” section of our IR website.

Composition

The total number of Directors comprising the Board of Directors are determined under a resolution adopted by the Board of Directors. At least two of the Directors must meet the independence criteria referred to in the Best Practice for GPW Listed Companies 2021 (i.e. in the Act of 11 May 2017 on Auditors, Audit Firms and Public Supervision).

The current number of Directors is five.

One Director is elected by the holder(s) of Series A Preferred Stock, two Directors are elected by the holder(s) of Series B Preferred Stock (provided that, to qualify one such Series B Director will be Anton Gauffin). The holders of shares of common stock will exclusively be entitled to elect the Directors of Huuuge, Inc. not elected in accordance with the preceding sentence. Each Director holds office until the next annual meeting or until his or her successor is elected or until his or her earlier resignation or dismissal.

Any Director may be dismissed, either with or without cause, at any time by the stockholders entitled to designate such Director (that is, holders of the shares of a given class or series of capital stock), either at a special meeting or pursuant to the written consent of the stockholders.

The Chairman of the Board, if elected, presides at all meetings of the stockholders and of the Board of Directors and exercises and performs such other powers and duties as the Board of Directors may assign or as may be set out in bylaws of Huuuge, Inc. (“Bylaws”). The Chairman of the Board may be designated by the Board of Directors to serve in an interim capacity as the Chief Executive Officer of Huuuge, Inc. in the event of the Chief Executive Officer’s death, resignation, dismissal, absence or disability until the Board of Directors appoints a new Chief Executive Officer. The Chairman of the Board may or may not be an officer of Huuuge, Inc.

Powers

Pursuant to the Bylaws, subject to the provisions of the Delaware General Corporate Law and any limitations in the Certificate of Incorporation of Huuuge, Inc. or the Bylaws themselves relating to actions required to be approved by the stockholders or by votes attached to the outstanding shares, the business and affairs of Huuuge, Inc. are managed, and all corporate powers are exercised, by or under the direction of the Board of Directors.

The Board of Directors, except as otherwise set out in the Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws, may authorise any officer or agent to enter into any contract or execute any instrument in the name and on behalf of Huuuge, Inc.; such authority may be general or limited to specific instances. Unless so authorised or ratified by the Board of Directors or within the authorisation of an officer, no officer, agent or employee has any power or authority to execute any contract or enter into any engagement binding on Huuuge, Inc. or establish any pledges or render Huuuge, Inc. for any purpose or for any amount.
