The Board notes that Resolutions 7 and 8 were duly passed but did not attain the support of more than 80% of shareholders who voted. As set out in provision 4 of the 2018 UK Corporate Governance Code, the Board will consult and engage with the Company’s shareholders as appropriate and will provide an update within six months of the AGM. 

 

Regarding resolutions 7 and 8, substantially all the votes against were from two shareholders in each case. The Board continues to hold every confidence in the Chief Financial Officer, recognising the value and contribution he brings to the Company. The Board continually strives to ensure its remuneration policies support the Company’s strategy and are in line with market practices and remains committed to soliciting input from shareholders.
