Notes: 

1)    Following the completion of the merger with Karpus Management, Inc. on 1 October 2020, the Company has a "Controlling Shareholder Group", which has agreed to limit their voting rights to the lower of: (i) the number of shares held by them; and (ii) 24.99 per cent. of the votes cast on any resolution by all shareholders. The Controlling Shareholder Group cast votes in excess of 24.99 per cent. of the votes cast on the resolutions by all shareholders and, accordingly, the number of votes stated above as being cast "in favour", "against" and those "withheld" have been reduced accordingly.

2)    The total number of Ordinary Shares of 1p each in the Company in issue at close of business on 24 October 2024 and the number used for the percentage of issued share capital voted was 50,679,095.

3)    The percentage of issued share capital voted calculation uses total votes cast (including votes withheld) as adjusted per the Controlling Shareholder Group calculation detailed in point 1, above.

4)    The votes "for" include those giving the Chair of the AGM discretion.

5)    Votes "for" and "against" are expressed as a percentage of the number in the total votes cast column (excluding votes withheld).

6)    The percentages above are rounded to two decimal places.

7)    A vote withheld is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of votes "for" or "against" a resolution.

 

Resolutions 5, 6, and 7 related to the election and re-election of the Independent Directors. Under the Listing Rules, because the Controlling Shareholder Group together control in concert more than 30 per cent. of the voting rights of the Company (even though they have agreed to limit their voting rights as stated above), the re-election of an Independent Director by shareholders must be approved by a majority of both: (i) the shareholders of the Company; and (ii) the independent shareholders of the Company (that is, the shareholders of the Company entitled to vote on the election of Independent Directors who are not part of the Controlling Shareholder Group). The Company has separately counted the number of votes cast by the independent shareholders in favour of resolutions 5, 6, and 7 and has determined that, in each case, the second threshold referred to in (ii) above has also been met. Notes 4 to 7 above also apply to the following table.

In accordance with Listing Rule 6.4.2R, copies of the resolutions comprising special business have been made available for inspection on the National Storage Mechanism at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism.

 

City of London also announces that as a result of Tazim Essani not seeking re-election at today's AGM, she will cease to be a Director of the Company forthwith, and Sarah Ing, having been elected as a Director of the Company, shall become Chair of the Remuneration Committee with immediate effect.
