AGM Resolutions
London, 21 May 2020 - The notice of AGM of Energean Oil and Gas plc (LSE: ENOG, TASE: אנאג), to be held today, 21 May 2020, includes at resolution 15 a proposal to issue new shares for cash other than in accordance with statutory pre-emption rights and at resolution 16 a proposal to give the Company flexibility to make non-pre-emptive issues of shares in connection with acquisitions and other capital investments as contemplated by the Pre-Emption Group's Statement of Principles.
The authorities sought by the Company are aligned with the Investment Association's share capital guidelines and market practice for FTSE listed companies. However, given the outcome of shareholder consultation, the Company believes that the right course of action is for the Board not to seek shareholder approval for these authorities at the AGM and these resolutions will not be put to the meeting.
The Company will undertake a detailed review of the feedback received on these resolutions to ensure it fully understands shareholders' concerns. The Board takes seriously its responsibilities to uphold the highest standards of corporate governance and is open to constructive dialogue with shareholders and shareholder bodies.
