AGM Update
LSL has today published its Notice of Meeting advising Shareholders that the AGM will be held on 30th June 2020. The AGM will take place at LSL's office, Gateway 2, Holgate Park Drive, York, YO26 4GB.
Copies of the Notice of Meeting, Letter to Shareholders and the Proxy Card have been despatched to Shareholders and are also available to view on LSL's website lslps.co.uk. These documents have also been sent to the UK Listing Authority and will shortly be available for viewing through the National Storage Mechanism (data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism).
AGM Arrangements - Information for Shareholders
The continuing COVID-19 pandemic has led to the imposition of severe restrictions on public gatherings. As a result physical attendance at the AGM will be limited to two Shareholders selected from within the Group's employees; with Directors, other Officers, Advisers and LSL's Auditor attending via a conference call facility.
All other Shareholders will not be permitted to attend in person and those attending the meeting in person will comply at all times with the Government's strict social distancing guidance. It is possible that the AGM arrangements set out in the Notice of Meeting may change to reflect further developments over the next few weeks. Up to date information and any changes to the AGM arrangements contained in the Notice of Meeting will be available on lslps.co.uk.
One of the Shareholders attending the meeting in person will be appointed as Chair of the meeting and LSL strongly encourages all Shareholders to vote by completing a proxy form and appointing the 'Chair of the Meeting' as their proxy with their voting instructions, rather than appointing another person who will not be permitted to attend the meeting in person. Proxies should be completed and returned in accordance with the instructions detailed in the Notice of Meeting and the proxy form. Shareholders can request a hard copy of the proxy form from LSL's Registrar, Link Asset Services, by calling the number included in the Notice of Meeting.
Shareholders can also download and print the form from lslps.co.uk/investor-relations/investor-communications/form-of-proxy and completed forms can be scanned and emailed to investorrelations@lslps.co.uk. Shareholders can also email questions or comments ahead of the AGM to this email address.
All resolutions to be considered at the AGM will voted on by way of a poll. All valid proxy votes, whether submitted electronically or in hard copy form, will be included in the polls to be taken at the meeting. LSL is disappointed that it is having to adopt these measures and appreciates Shareholders' understanding in these unprecedented circumstances.
Due to LSL's AGM arrangements being under review in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, LSL applied for and received an extension to the timeline for the filing of the Annual Report and Accounts 2019 at Companies House.
