("Hyve" or the "Company")
Notice of General Meeting
Hyve Group plc today announces that it has posted to shareholders a circular convening a General Meeting of the Company to be held at 9.00 a.m. on 25 October 2021 at its offices at 2 Kingdom Street, London W2 6JG.
The General Meeting has been called to approve a new Remuneration Policy and a new Value Creation Plan, the Hyve Group plc Value Creation Plan.
Details of the resolutions can be found within the Notice of General Meeting. A copy of the Notice of Meeting and the Proxy Form have been submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism. It is also available on the Company's website at www.hyve.group.
The Board understands and respects the importance of shareholders being able to attend, speak and vote at general meetings. With restrictions having eased in the UK, and whilst the Board extends an open invitation for all shareholders to join us in person, there is concern that the ever-changing regulations may limit the Group's ability to host the General Meeting as it normally would, including attendance by all Board Directors. Given the degree of uncertainty, shareholders are strongly encouraged to submit a proxy vote in advance of the General Meeting and to appoint the Chairman of the General Meeting as their proxy, rather than a named person, in order to ensure the safety and wellbeing of all those in physical attendance at the General Meeting. Shareholders should bear in mind that it is possible that any shareholder who does travel to attend the General Meeting in person could be denied access to it, if the Chairman of the General Meeting considers this necessary, given the circumstances at the time.
Please refer to the Notice of General Meeting for details of how to vote by proxy and how to ask questions of the Board of Directors.
