Volaris amends bylaws to allow virtual meetings for Board of Directors and Committees

  

Mexico City, Mexico, May 3, 2024 – Volaris (the “Company”) (NYSE: VLRS and BMV: VOLAR), the ultra low cost airline, operating in Mexico, United States, Central and South America, announced today that, by a unanimous vote of shareholders in attendance who exercised their right to vote at the Extraordinary General Shareholders' Meeting of the Company held on April 19, 2024 (the “Shareholders Meeting”), a partial reform of the bylaws of the Company (the “Partial Reform”) was approved that will allow the Company to hold meetings of the Board of Directors and of Committees of the Company virtually through electronic, optical or any other technology, among certain other matters. The Partial Reform was permitted as a result of certain amendments to various articles of the Mexican General Corporations Law (which effectively supplement the requirements of the Mexican Securities Market Law in this context) published on October 20, 2023, in the Mexican Official Gazette of the Federation.

 

As a result of the Partial Reform, these meetings will be able to be held in person, virtually through the use of electronic, optical or any other technology, or in a hybrid format, and will be deemed of equal validity and effect as if held in person.

 

In compliance with the resolutions adopted at the Shareholders Meeting and due to the Partial Reform, the Company's bylaws were restated and notarized on May 2, 2024.
