Results of General Meeting

The Company announces the voting results of the General Meeting ("GM") held earlier today at Hangar 89, London Luton Airport, Luton LU2 9PF.

 

The GM was convened to consider the resolutions proposed at the direction of Sir Stelios Haji-Ioannou ("SHI") to remove as directors of the Company the Chairman, John Barton; the CEO, Johan Lundgren; the CFO, Andrew Findlay and Independent Non-Executive Director, Andreas Bierwirth. The Board had unanimously recommended that shareholders vote against these resolutions.

 

All four resolutions were defeated, with over 99% of votes cast by independent shareholders1 being in support of the Board. easyJet Chairman, John Barton, said:

 

"On behalf of the Board I would like to thank shareholders for their support. The airline industry is facing unprecedented challenges and the Board's immediate priority has been to take the necessary steps to successfully guide easyJet through this period of uncertainty. We are relentlessly focused on cash conservation and ensuring that easyJet emerges from the Covid-19 crisis in a strong competitive position. The Board seeks good relationships with all of the Company's shareholders and hopes to be able to re-engage constructively with Sir Stelios."
