Annual General Meeting 2021 ("AGM")
Following the UK government announcement on 14 June that
lockdown measures will not be withdrawn by the time of the AGM, the
Company confirms that it intends to hold its 2021 AGM with only the
minimum number of shareholders present as required to form a quorum
under the Company's Articles of Association, and who (being
officers or employees of the Company) are essential for the
business of the AGM to be conducted.
As set out in the notice of meeting, the AGM will be held on 29
June 2021 at 11.00am. In view of the continuing risk posed by
COVID-19, and having regard to their own safety and that of others,
shareholders and their representatives are respectfully asked not
to seek to attend the AGM in person. To ensure the safety of the
limited number of people whose attendance is essential, we do not
propose to allow other shareholders or their representatives to
gain access to the AGM venue on the day.
In order to ensure shareholders' votes are counted, despite
these restrictions, the Board strongly encourages shareholders to
exercise their right to vote by appointing the chairman of the AGM
as their proxy to vote at the AGM in accordance with their
instructions. To appoint a proxy, please complete the form of proxy
and send it to our registrar, Neville Registrars Limited. CREST
members who wish to appoint a proxy or proxies for the AGM (and any
adjournment(s) thereof) through the CREST electronic proxy
appointment service may do so by using the procedures described in
the CREST Manual. Proxy appointments must be received by Neville
Registrars Limited no later than 11:00am on 25 June 2021. Further
details are set out in the notice of meeting.
We, as your Board, are committed to open dialogue with our
shareholders and remain very mindful of ensuring that shareholders
have an opportunity to engage with us. Shareholders are encouraged
to submit questions in advance of the AGM or raise matters of
concern as a shareholder by emailing the Company Secretary using
the email address provided on your form of proxy. Answers to
questions that are of common interest will be published on the
Group's website.
