*Excluding votes withheld.
All resolutions were voted on by poll. As at 6:30pm on 6 December 2016, being the record date for the General Meeting, the total number of shares in issue (excluding shares held in treasury) was 82,505,853.
LSR's Chairman, Stephen East, commented: 
"Excluding the voting ofits own shares, Thalassa has received less than 2% of votes polled in favour of its resolutions. This process has frustratingly resulted in unnecessary expense for LSR shareholders, which will be recognised in the current accounting period. The Board of LSR is grateful to the overwhelming majority of its shareholders for their support and will set out its roadmap for the completion of the Company's strategic plan in our annual results statement, which will be published on 12 December 2016. In the meantime, the Board will continue to act in the best interests of all shareholders, including Thalassa, and prosecute its plans as expeditiously and sensibly as possible."
The results of the General Meeting will also be made available on the Company's website: www.localshoppingreit.co.uk.
