FIDELITY JAPAN TRUST PLC (the "Company")

 

Result of the General Meeting

 

At the Company's General Meeting held on 23 June 2025, the resolution was duly
passed, without amendment, by way of poll.

 

The resolution passed was a special resolution regarding the adoption of the
new Articles of Association of the Company ("New Articles"). The New Articles
extend the time period to: (i) draw up proposals regarding the Company's
voluntary liquidation and/or reorganisation; and (ii) hold a general meeting
at which such proposals are submitted to members in the event of an
unsuccessful continuation vote, from three months to six months. As announced
on 21 May, the ordinary resolution in relation to the continuation of the
Company was not passed at the annual general meeting held on 21 May 2025
("2025 AGM"). The relevant date by which the Board must draw up proposals and
hold the required general meeting pursuant to the New Articles is now 21
November 2025.

 

In addition, the New Articles contain various changes of a minor,
clarificatory or technical nature. The New Articles are in the same form, with
the same amendments, as produced at the 2025 AGM.

 

Full details of the resolution will soon be filed with Companies House and
will be uploaded to the national storage mechanism ("NSM").

The poll results will be available on the Company's website at
