Frequently Asked Questions

The right to vote can be exercised:

1. In person, at TagusPark, Av. Prof. Doutor Cavaco Silva, Edifício 8, in Porto Salvo, Oeiras;


2. By electronic means, and the system is available for use in the "Espaço Acionista BCP" (BCP Shareholder Space) between 0:00 on 29 April and 5 PM on 05 May (see questions 7 and 20).


3. By post, with the duly completed ballot paper being received by the Bank no later than 5 PM on 05 May.

We note that the physical presence of a Shareholder or their representative implies the revocation of the vote previously cast by mail-in ballots or electronically, unless there is express opposition to its revocation. Participation in the audiovisual broadcast by the Shareholder and/or his/her proxy does not revoke votes previously cast.

Voting by electronic means is processed through the "Espaço Acionista BCP" and will be available between 0:00 on 29 April and 5:00 PM on 05 May.

To access the "Espaço Acionista BCP", Shareholders (natural persons or Self-employed Individual Entrepreneurs) should consider the following:

1. If you are a Customer of Millennium bcp or ActivoBank or already have access credentials to the "Espaço Acionista BCP", you can access it directly (Login with User Code and Multichannel or login with Digital Mobile Key) and fill in the electronic voting form. Please note that the access credentials are the same as the login credentials for the Bank's private portal;


2. If they do not have such access, they must register at "Espaço Acionista BCP", as a shareholder, following the procedures indicated, and the process may take some time to complete. In this case, it is recommended that you register in advance. See here how to register in the Shareholder Area
   
   In this case, registration should be carried out in the "Espaço Acionista BCP", by selecting the option "Não tenho ou não me lembro do código" (I don't have or can't remember the code) in the User Code access area and then the option "Sou acionista sem conta à ordem - Preciso dos códigos de acesso ao site acionista" (I'm a shareholder without a current account - I need access codes to the shareholder website). This registration is exclusively for access to the "Espaço Acionista BCP" and does not imply the opening of a client account.
   
   After receiving the access codes, the Shareholder will be able to access the "Espaço Acionista BCP" and submit the duly completed electronic ballot paper. In case of difficulty, please use the following contact address: pmag@millenniumbcp.pt
   Electronic voting is not available to shareholders who are legal persons.

After exercising the right to vote electronically, and under the terms of article 22-A of the Securities Code, the respective confirmation will be received electronically.

The ballot paper must be sent together with the signature certification issued by an entity authorised for this purpose or:

1. in the case of a legal person, the access code to the company's permanent certificate may be sent together with a legible copy of the identification documents of the Legal Representatives signing the ballot paper, provided that they are identified in said certificate; in the case of a signature with a digital mobile key, it is only necessary to send the access code to the company's permanent certificate;


2. in the case of a natural person or Self-employed Individual Entrepreneur, if they do not choose to sign with the digital mobile key, they may send a photocopy of their identification document, in which case their signature must correspond to that document.
