Notice of annual general meeting and no change statement
Notice of annual general meeting
Notice is hereby given that the 2021 annual general meeting (AGM) of Pan African will be held at the offices of Fladgate LLP, 16 Great Queen Street, London WC2B 5DG on Thursday, 25 November 2021 at 11:00 am (all references to time in this notice is United Kingdom time (GMT+00.00), unless otherwise stated).
Whilst shareholders will be permitted to attend in person, no directors will be present at the venue and therefore the Company will also offer shareholders the option to participate in the meeting remotely via an electronic audio webcast.
The board of directors is strongly encouraging shareholders to vote electronically again this year and to appoint the chairman of the AGM as their proxy with their voting instructions. All valid proxy votes, whether submitted electronically or in hard copy form, will be included in the polls to be taken at the meeting and should be submitted by no later than 11:00 am on 23 November 2021. Please note, however, that shareholders will not be able to vote online at the meeting when attending via the webcast.
Shareholders are advised that the notice of AGM, including the abridged audited annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2021, will be distributed to shareholders on Wednesday, 27 October 2021.
Shareholders are advised that the Company’s Integrated Annual Report, audited annual financial statements and notice of AGM for the year ended 30 June 2021 are available at: https://www.panafricanresources.com/investors/financial-reports/
Attendance and representation at the AGM for shareholders on the South African register
Ordinarily, in accordance with the mandate governing the relationship between you and your broker or CSDP, you may advise your broker or CSDP that you wished to attend the meeting and if so, your broker or CSDP would issue the necessary letter of representation to you to attend and vote at the meeting. However, in the current circumstances, as outlined above, you are encouraged to appoint the chairman of the AGM as your proxy as any person appointed other than the chairman of the AGM as your proxy may not be allowed to attend the AGM.
If you wish to attend the audio webcast, then you will need to contact your broker or CSDP who will request log in and pin number details via a letter of representation from Computershare Investor Services Proprietary Limited, The Towers, 15 Biermann Avenue, Rosebank, Johannesburg 2196, South Africa (Private Bag X9000, Saxonwold, 2132, South Africa) or email proxy@computershare.co.za to allow you to enter the audio webcast and listen and ask questions at the AGM. Please note that you will need to request this at least 72 hours before the AGM, that being by 11:00am on Monday, 22 November 2021.
Attendance and representation at the AGM for shareholders on the United Kingdom register
Although completion of a proxy would not preclude you from attending the AGM and voting in person if you so wish any appointed proxy other than the chairman of the meeting may not be able to attend the meeting on your behalf should circumstances change that require the Company to restrict the number of attendees in person. You are therefore encouraged to appoint the chairman of the AGM as your proxy. If you appoint any person other than the chairman of the AGM as your proxy, that person may not be allowed to attend the AGM. For shareholders on the UK share register, unlike previous years, and in order to reduce the Company’s environmental impact, you will not receive a hard copy form of proxy for the 2021 AGM in the post automatically. Instead, you will be able to appoint a proxy electronically using the link www.signalshares.com. Further details on how to join the AGM and submitting your proxy electronically can be found in the Notice of AGM.
