Posting of Revised Notice of AGM
United Cacao (AIM: CHOC), the AIM-listed cacao plantation company based in Peru, announces that it has posted today a revised Notice of Annual General Meeting and associated Forms of Proxy and Instruction (the "Notice and Voting Forms") to Shareholders. The Notice and Voting Forms have been updated for the inclusion of an additional resolution as set out below:
"By way of special resolution, to waive any pre-emptive rights, rights of first refusal or rights of similar effect to which they are entitled pursuant to the articles of association of the Company up to an amount representing no more than 20 per cent. of the issued Ordinary Share capital of the Company. The power granted pursuant to this resolution will expire on the conclusion of the Company's next annual general meeting."
