Results of First General Meeting and Annual General Meeting
In connection with the proposals for the voluntary winding up of the Company and combination with Nippon Active Value Fund plc ("NAVF") by means of a scheme of reconstruction and winding up of the Company under section 110 of the Insolvency Act 1986 (the "Scheme"), the Board is pleased to announce that the special resolutions, which were put forward at the First General Meeting, and the ordinary and special resolutions put forward at the Annual General Meeting, both held today, have been approved by Shareholders. Please note that of the resolutions numbered 1 to 12 presented at the Annual General Meeting, numbers 11 and 12 were special resolutions.
As set out in the circular to shareholders dated 1 September 2023 (the "Circular"), as a result of the passing of the first special resolution at the First General Meeting, the Company's articles of associations were amended to remove the continuation vote provisions therein and therefore the Company was not required to put Resolution 13 to shareholders at the Annual General Meeting.
Details of the number of proxy votes cast for, against and withheld in respect of the resolutions are set out
below and will also be published on the Company's website: abrdnjapan.co.uk .
