AGM - Thursday 18 February 2021

In the context of the health emergency linked to the COVID-19 pandemic, and in order to protect the health and the safety of its employees and shareholders, the Board of Directors has decided to hold the 2021 annual general meeting behind closed doors.

Therefore, exceptionally, the annual general meeting will be held at the company’s registered offices on Thursday 18 February 2021 with the minimum number of shareholders present as required to form a quorum under the Company’s articles of association. The shareholders in attendance will be directors of the Company, subject to social distancing measures in line with current government guidelines. To ensure safety, other shareholders will not be able to gain access to the meeting.

Shareholders are invited to vote on the Resolutions to be put to the meeting by granting a proxy to the chair of the meeting, using the Form of Proxy included in the Annual Report. There will be no other method of voting.

As the annual general meeting will be held behind closed doors, if a member of the company wishes to ask a question, they can register to ask a question and gain access to a special AGM Q&A webpage. The directors of the company will endeavour to provide answers to questions, and both questions and answers will be published on the AGM Q&A webpage for seven days following the 2021 AGM.
