* indicates a special resolution
The Board notes that Resolution 6, the re-election of Harry Hyman, was
supported by 79.28% of shareholders. We understand that those shareholders
that did not support this Resolution did so because of his prior role as Chief
Executive Officer. The Board is pleased that the Resolution was approved and
that the vast majority of our largest shareholders voted in favour of it.
Mindful that the strong level of support falls factionally short of the
relevant approval threshold for the purposes of provision 4 of the UK
Corporate Governance Code (the Code), the Board will build on its previous
engagements with major shareholders to seek to fully understand the reasons
behind these votes against and will provide an update in accordance with the
Code within six months of the Annual General Meeting.
The total issued share capital of PHP is 1,336,493,786 Ordinary Shares. This
figure may be used by Shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by
which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or
a change in their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the
FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
A copy of the resolutions passed as special business at today's AGM will, in
accordance with Listing Rule 6.4.2., be submitted to the National Storage
Mechanism and will be available at
