A vote withheld is not a vote in law and is not counted towards votes cast "For" or "Against" a resolution.
The Company's total issued share capital as at 23 January 2020 is 380,315,623 ordinary shares of 40 pence each.
It has been noted that 14.93% of votes were registered against the re-election of Gavin Tipper, the Chairman of RDI. The Company is aware that Mr Tipper is classified as being overboarded, and there are shareholder concerns regarding his ability to devote sufficient time to the Company. The Board considers Mr Tipper to be an exceptional Chairman who has attended all scheduled and unscheduled Board and Committee meetings during the year. He took an active role following an approach from the Cromwell Property Group and was heavily involved in all material and strategic discussions during the past 12 months. RDI therefore has no concerns regarding his ability to devote sufficient time to the Company.
It has been further noted that a significant number of shareholders on the JSE register have voted against Resolution 13, 14 and 15, with Resolution 15 marginally failing to be passed. Following substantial votes against the same resolutions previously, management has had continuous dialogue with the major dissenting South African shareholders and has reduced the directors authority to issue shares from 66% in 2017, to just 10% in 2020. It is therefore disappointing that South African shareholders have voted against this resolution again but liaison with shareholders will continue in light of the fact that management believe it important to allow acquisitions to take place via share placements as opposed to holding cash pending investment, which could cause a drag on earnings in the short term.
An update will be made in accordance with the UK Corporate Governance Code within six months of the AGM.
Board Changes
Following the conclusion of the Annual General Meeting, Marc Wainer has retired as a Director of RDI. We offer our thanks to Marc for his considerable contribution during his eight-year tenure. Pieter Prinsloo will act as Redefine Properties Limited's ("RDF") sole representative on the RDI Board and Andrew Konig, a Director of RDF, will be appointed his alternate with effect from 23 January 2020.
Stephen Oakenfull and Adrian Horsburgh have also stepped down as members of the Board, with effect from today, but will continue their roles as Deputy CEO and Property Director, respectively, on the executive committee. This will result in the RDI Board comprising seven directors, which better reflects the current size of the Company. The changes will improve the balance between independent and non-independent directors, aligning the composition of the Board with the requirements of the 2018 UK Corporate Governance Code, whilst also improving Board diversity.
In accordance with LR 9.6.2 R of the Listing Rules of the UKLA, copies of all resolutions passed by the Company, other than resolutions concerning ordinary business, have been submitted to the UK's National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection at: http://www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/NSM and can also be viewed on the Company's website, www.rdireit.com.
