Good Energy Group PLC
("Good Energy" or the "Company")
Result of Annual General Meeting
At the Company's Annual General Meeting held at 2pm on Thursday 22 June 2023, shareholders passed ordinary resolutions 2 - 8.
The Board notes that special resolutions 1, 9, 10 and 11 did not pass.
Special resolution 1 was an amendment to the Articles of Association of the Company, legally embedding its purpose by stating its goals are to have a materially positive impact on society and the environment, in addition to operating for the benefit of stakeholders. This is a legal requirement for the retention of B Corp certification which the Company is pursuing.
Special resolutions 9,10 and 11 were standard authorities that UK listed companies take at annual general meetings, relating to the allotment of 5% of shares for cash on a non-pre-emptive basis and purchase of own shares.
The Board is disappointed not to receive this limited additional flexibility of the special resolutions to pursue opportunities in the interests of the Company and its shareholders.
The results of the AGM will be published on the Company's website as soon as practicable following the meeting.
The full text of the resolutions may be found in the Notice of the Annual General Meeting, copies of which are also available on the Company's website at https://www.goodenergy.co.uk/investors/annual-general-meeting/.
