This amendment reports a fundamental shift in TORM plc's corporate governance structure. Oaktree Capital, a long-standing major shareholder, has seen its aggregate voting rights decrease from a super-majority of 83.40% to 26.08%. This change was triggered by a provision in the company's articles of association, which stipulated that once Oaktree's beneficial ownership fell below one-third of outstanding shares, its Class C share (which carried significant voting power) would be redeemed. While Oaktree remains a substantial shareholder, this event means it no longer holds unilateral control over shareholder votes, potentially increasing the influence of other investors and altering the company's strategic decision-making process.
