The Board is pleased that all Resolutions have been passed with the support of shareholders. The Board notes that resolution 17, relating to the approval of the Panel Waiver given in connection with share awards made under the Company's Performance Share Plan to the Company's Chairman and certain other officers of the Company who are regarded as acting in concert, received a vote of 78.33%% in favour and recognises that a significant minority of shareholders have voted against this resolution.

Ahead of the Annual General Meeting, Michael Russell, the Chairman of the Remuneration Committee wrote to a number of Clipper's largest shareholders to explain the approach of the Remuneration Committee in relation to this specific issue and also spoke to Institutional Shareholder Services an organisation which analyses Company annual reports and makes voting recommendations and seeks views from its members. A significant number of those shareholders contacted have continued to support the approach of the Remuneration Committee. However whilst the Board unanimously believes that the Remuneration Committee made the right decision in aligning executive reward to the shareholder experience, it is clear that there is a divergence of opinion amongst some shareholders as regards awards to the concert party. Looking forward the Board notes that the Remuneration Committee intends to extend its engagement with the Company's shareholders to fully understand shareholder views and to enable it to better address the reasons behind today's vote result.
