Packaging US Inc and their respective subsidiary companies to the Mayr-Melnhof
Group (the "Disposal"), the Company is pleased to announce that at a general
meeting held earlier today, an ordinary resolution to approve the Disposal was
duly passed by the Company's shareholders. The results of the vote are shown

Any vote that gave the Chairman discretion has been included in the 'For'
votes. A vote withheld is not a vote in law and is not counted towards the
votes cast 'For' or 'Against' a resolution. The resolution will shortly be
available for inspection at the National Storage Mechanism document viewing
facility at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism.

 

The Board expects that, subject to the satisfaction and/or waiver (where
applicable) of the other conditions precedent to the Disposal, completion will
occur in the fourth quarter of the 2022 calendar year.
