·      Proxy appointments which gave discretion to the Chairman of the
AGM have been included in the "For" total for the appropriate resolution.

 

·      A "Withheld" vote is not a vote in law and is not counted in the
calculation of the proportion of the votes cast "For" or "Against" a
resolution.

 

·      The proportion of "Total % Instructed" is the total of votes
instructed for that resolution (i.e. the total votes "For", "Against" and
"Withheld" for that resolution) expressed as a percentage of the issued share
capital.

 

·      The issued share capital of the Company as at 10 May 2022 was
83,364,458 ordinary shares of 5p each. No shares are held in treasury.

made available on the Company's website at https://www.greshamtech.com

The Board notes that there was significant support for all of the resolutions,
except for Resolution 3, which relates to the approval of the Directors'
Remuneration Report, which was passed but received a vote of over 20% against
the resolution. The Board welcomes shareholder views and feedback on all
aspects of the Annual Report and Accounts, including the subject of
remuneration. Based on the proxy votes lodged in advance, the Board has
already conducted some preliminary consultations in this regard and, in
accordance with the FRC Code of Corporate Governance, will be undertaking
further consultation with major shareholders. An update of this engagement
will be published within six months, and a final summary included in the
Company's Annual Report for the 2022 Financial Year.
