AGM Arrangements:
The COVID-19 pandemic led to the imposition of severe restrictions on public gatherings during 2020. As a result, physical attendance at the 2020 AGM was 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. The 2021 AGM arrangements provide for physical attendance and LSL will ensure that the meeting is conducted in accordance with Government guidance prevailing on the date. 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. Any update to the information and any changes to the AGM arrangements contained in the Notice of Meeting will be available on lslps.co.uk.
Voting arrangements:
Shareholders are invited to submit their proxy votes for the 2021 AGM via LSL's Registrar's (Link Group) online voting facility (see below) instead of the paper-based system which has operated in previous years. Further, all resolutions to be considered at the AGM will be voted on by way of a poll. All valid proxy votes will be included in the polls to be taken at the meeting. Given the ongoing uncertainty around COVID-19 restrictions, Shareholders are encouraged to appoint the Chair of the meeting as their proxy at the meeting, ensuring that should the circumstances arise where no Shareholders other than the minimum number of Shareholders required to ensure that the meeting is quorate may be permitted to attend the meeting, Shareholders can be sure of their voting being included.
Any Shareholder who wishes to vote may submit a proxy form online, which is available at www.signalshares.com. If Shareholders have not done so already, they will need to register their account using their Investor Code, which can be found on their share certificate. To vote online, visit www.signalshares.com and search 'LSL Property services' and use the Investor Code to log in or to register. Once logged in, simply click the 'Vote Online Now' button and follow the procedure as instructed. For the votes to be valid they must be submitted no later than 1.00p.m. on Monday, 21 June 2021.
Any Shareholders wishing to receive paper copies of Shareholder Communications including a paper copy of the proxy form should contact Link Group - details are contained in the Notice of AGM.
