AGM Arrangements
 
The Company's Annual General Meeting ("AGM") is due to be held on Thursday 23rd July 2020 at 12pm. As set out in the Notice of Annual General Meeting ("Notice") due to the Covid-19 pandemic and associated restrictions on public gatherings, shareholders are encouraged to vote by proxy and not to attend the meeting. 
 
The Board notes that recent legislation permits virtual shareholder meetings to be held during the pandemic and so will arrange for a quorum comprising at least two shareholder-directors to conduct the meeting remotely. Accordingly, under the legislation, the Board intends  for the AGM to be held electronically and not in person by the shareholder-directors and so no one will be present at the location identified in the Notice at the appointed time and shareholders are urged not to attend the AGM in person.
 
The latest date for receipt of proxies is Tuesday 21st July 2020 at 12pm in accordance with the procedure set forth in the Notice. The result of the proxy votes will be announced after the AGM in the usual way. There is also a procedure in the Notice pursuant to which shareholders may ask questions in writing and the Board will respond in due course.
 
This announcement contains inside information for the purposes of Article 7 of EU Regulation 596/2014.
