R.E.A. Holdings plc ("REA" or the "company") 
 
Further re 2020 annual general meeting 
 
 Further to the notice of annual general meeting to be held on 11 June 2020, 
 in response to feedback from certain interested parties, the company offers 
       the following clarification regarding Resolution 16 in respect of the 
             proposal to adopt new articles of association (the "articles"). 
 
  The proposed articles include amendments to, inter alia, allow for general 
 meetings to be held electronically as well as physically in accordance with 
 the Companies (Shareholders' Rights) Regulations 2009 and the Companies Act 
   2006, as set out in the appendix to the notice of the 2020 annual general 
    meeting. As stated, nothing in the new articles will prevent the company 
                                     from holding physical general meetings. 
 
 The company confirms herewith that it is not presently the intention of the 
 company to move exclusively to so-called virtual meetings. The company will 
make arrangements to hold virtual meetings when it is considered appropriate 
      because of exceptional circumstances, such as in response to the risks 
        associated with the current Covid-19 pandemic. Further, the proposed 
      amendment will allow shareholders who are unable to attend meetings in 
        person to participate electronically in meetings that are being held 
                                                                 physically. 
 
      REA and the directors recognise the value of face-to-face meetings and 
  dialogue with all shareholders and welcome the opportunity for the regular 
 engagement that takes place at its general meetings and on other occasions. 
     The company seeks to ensure that shareholder preferences are taken into 
            account when planning general meetings so that no single body of 
                                            shareholders is disenfranchised.
