The Board would like to thank the Company’s and the Cell's shareholders for their continued support.
In relation to resolution 3 of the Cell and Company Meeting to re-elect Philip Bisson as a director of the Company, the Board understands that the votes received against Mr Bisson’s re-election are likely to have resulted, at least in part, from a recommendation set out in a report from one proxy voting agency which considered that Mr Bisson’s shareholding and those of his connected persons (1.72% in aggregate) could compromise Mr Bisson’s independence as a director and, as such, that he should not form part of the Audit Committee of the Company. The Company will consult with shareholders over the coming months to better understand the reasons for the votes cast against Mr Bisson’s re-election.
Terms used and not defined in this announcement bear the meaning given to them in the notices of the meetings dated 14 May, 2021.
In accordance with FCA listing rule 9.6.2, a copy of the resolutions has been submitted to the National Storage Mechanism. All of these documents will shortly be made available for inspection at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism.
These results will also shortly be available for inspection on the Company's website.
