Results of AGM
At the Shaftesbury PLC (the "Company") Annual General Meeting ("AGM") held today, the resolutions set out below (with the exception of resolutions 15 and 16) were passed by shareholders voting on a poll.
The Board would like to thank shareholders for their engagement and support ahead of the AGM and throughout the year. While most of the resolutions were passed, with majorities in excess of 97.51%, the Board notes that resolutions 15 (Disapplication of Pre-emption Rights - General) and 16 (Disapplication of Pre-emption Rights - Specific) which were special resolutions requiring a 75% majority, did not receive sufficient support to be passed (receiving votes in favour of 72.03% and 70.94% respectively).
Both of the resolutions followed the provisions of the Pre-Emption Group's Statement of Principles for the disapplication of pre-emption rights and reflect UK listed company market practice. The Board considers the flexibility afforded by these authorities to be in the best interests of the Company.
In accordance with provision 4 of the UK Corporate Governance Code (the "Code"), the Board confirms that it will consult and continue to engage with the relevant shareholders to understand and discuss their concerns with respect to these resolutions. An update will be provided within six months of the AGM, in accordance with the Code, with a final summary to be included in the Company's 2021 annual report and accounts .
Board Changes
Dermot Mathias retired as a director of the Company at the conclusion of the AGM. We offer our thanks to Dermot for his valuable contribution and advice throughout his tenure. Following Dermot's retirement, Ruth Anderson has been appointed as the Chair of the Audit Committee.
