LLOYDS BANKING GROUP PLC
UPDATE ON OUR AGM
This is an update on the arrangements for Lloyds Banking Group plc's Annual General Meeting (the 'AGM') in Edinburgh on Thursday 20 May 2021 at 11am.
The Scottish government has now published details of the COVID-19 restrictions and most of Scotland (including Edinburgh) is now in protection level 2. This means that we are now able to accommodate up to 100 shareholders at the AGM, subject to social distancing and other safety requirements.
Full details of the arrangements for the AGM, including the requisite safety arrangements and procedures, can be found on our website on www.lloydsbankinggroup.com/investors/shareholder-information/shareholder-meetings.html.
Given the restrictions on numbers, we have no choice but to limit attendance. We will give preference to shareholders who pre-register, in order of time of registration, and to the extent that there are any remaining spaces we will then try to accommodate any shareholders who have not pre-registered, on a first-come first-served basis on the day subject to social distancing and other safety requirements. Shareholders should pre-register their intention to attend the AGM through this link https://agm.lbgevent.com/ or by calling 01299 333 167. Pre-registration for the AGM will close when the capacity limit has been reached or if earlier at 6pm on Wednesday 19 May.
This means that if more than 100 shareholders seek to attend the AGM, we will have to refuse entry to any additional shareholders once we have reached capacity to avoid being in breach of the law. Because of this, we ask shareholders not to attend the AGM without pre-registering and receiving our confirmation of their place, as we cannot guarantee admission on the day. Shareholders are responsible for understanding and complying with the restrictions applicable to their own journey and should bear in mind that rules may differ between different parts of the UK.
We plan to livestream the AGM on our website so that shareholders who cannot attend in person are able to watch it. Please note that watching the livestream does not constitute attendance at the AGM.
