RNS Number : 9196G Bank of Georgia Group PLC 14 March 2024
London, 14 March 2024
Result of March 2024 General Meeting
On 19 February 2024, Bank of Georgia Group PLC (the "Company") published its
shareholder circular containing a notice of general meeting (the "General
Meeting") in connection with the proposed acquisition of Ameriabank CJSC (the
"Transaction").
The General Meeting was held earlier today, at which the ordinary resolution
to approve the Transaction and associated matters as set out in the Notice of
General Meeting was duly passed and the poll results were as follows:
VOTES % VOTES % VOTES % of ISC* VOTES
FOR

38,211,373 100.00% 216 0.00% 38,211,589 83.60% 4,732
*Issued share capital excluding treasury shares pending cancellation
Having received this shareholder approval of the Resolution at the General
Meeting and subsequently also regulatory approval from the National Bank of
Georgia, the Company intends to proceed to completion of the Transaction upon
the receipt of regulatory approvals in Armenia.
Notes:
1. As at the date of the General Meeting, the Company had 45,709,102
ordinary shares in issue. The Company did not hold any shares in treasury and
therefore the total number of voting rights as at the date of the General
Meeting was 45,709,102. In accordance with the Company's Articles of
Association and subject to the Listing Rules, on a poll every member who is
present in person or by proxy has one vote for every share held.
2. The scrutineer of the poll was Computershare Investor Services PLC,
the Company's Share Registrar.
3. Note that a "vote withheld" is not a vote in law and such votes have
not been included in the calculation of votes "for" and "against" each
resolution. Proxy appointments which gave discretion to the Chairman have been
included in the "for" total above.
In accordance with LR 9.6.2, a copy of the resolution has been submitted to
the FCA's National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available to view at
