The Board of Star Phoenix (AIM: STA), an international company with an oilfield services business in Trinidad and an oil and gas interest in Indonesia, is pleased to advise that following the Extraordinary General Meeting held earlier today only one of the resolutions relating to the removal of Dr YuFeng Meng as a Director was duly passed. Dr Meng is a nominee of shareholder Beijing Sibo Investment Management LP ("Sibo") and was appointed as a Non-Independent Non-Executive Director pursuant to Sibo's contractual right to appoint up to three Non-Executive Directors while it holds at least 10% shareholding in the Company, subject to compliance with the AIM rules and approval of the Company's Nomad.
All other resolutions relating to the proposed Board changes were lost, therefore there will be no other immediate changes to the composition of the Board.
The Directors wish to thank Shareholders for their continued support and for voting against of what appears to be an opportunistic move by one shareholder to take control of the Company. The Directors look forward to continuing with their efforts to grow the business and deliver value for all shareholders without any further distraction.
