AMENDMENT TO SUMMONS TO THE ORDINARY GENERAL SHAREHOLDERS' MEETING OF AVIANCA HOLDINGS S.A. The undersigned, chief executive officer of Avianca Holdings S.A. (the "Company"), informs that the summons to the Company's Ordinary General Shareholders' Meeting, scheduled for March 27, 2020 at 8:30 a.m. (the "Meeting") as initially published in the newspaper "La República," has been amended as follows:
Due to the spread of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) and the resulting restrictions imposed by the federal government of Colombia, the Meeting will not take place at the Company's headquarters, as previously announced; instead, it will take place by means of a videoconference.
Holders of the Company's common shares will receive an invitation by electronic mail, which will include a link to join the Meeting. If a shareholder cannot attend the Meeting and instead intends to participate through a proxy, such shareholder must provide the Company with a power of attorney together with a copy of the attorney in fact's personal identification document. If the attorney in fact delegated by proxy is a legal entity, a certificate of incorporation and legal incumbency certificate or similar document will need to be provided to the Company.
In accordance with the Company's articles of incorporation, holders of the Company's preferred shares are not invited to participate in this Meeting, as there will be no voting in respect of matters subject to their voting rights.
