AGM Arrangements
Share plc, which operates The Share Centre Limited ("The Share Centre"), a leading independent retail stockbroker, will be holding its Annual General Meeting ("AGM") on 17 June at 11am at the Company's office at Oxford House in Aylesbury, and announces arrangements for the AGM in light of the coronavirus crisis.
AGM Arrangements
Reflecting Government restrictions aimed at controlling the spread of coronavirus and to protect the health and safety of shareholders and employees, the Company will hold the AGM with the minimum necessary quorum of two shareholders (which will be facilitated by the Company). As previously highlighted in our Notice of Meeting sent to shareholders in May, regrettably, we are unable to allow shareholders to attend the AGM in person, and anyone seeking to attend the meeting in person will be refused entry.
Shareholders will be able to follow a webcast of the AGM via the following link https://bit.ly/SharePLC_AGM. In order to gain access to the webcast, shareholders will be required to supply their Shareholder Reference Number. Shareholders who are customers of The Share Centre and hold their shares via Share Nominees Limited will need to provide their customer reference number to access the webcast.
Voting
The Board encourages all shareholders to exercise their vote and submit proxies as early as possible. Dialling in to the webcast will not constitute formal attendance at the AGM, and shareholders will not be able to vote on the day of the meeting.
Proxy forms must be submitted by 11am on Monday 15th June in order to be valid in accordance with the instructions contained in the Notice of Meeting.
Shareholders who hold their shares in an account with The Share Centre (through Share Nominees Limited) may register their votes by logging into their account at Share.com and accessing the 'Company meetings & voting' page.
The results of voting at the AGM will be announced to the London Stock Exchange as soon as possible after the AGM. Details of the results will also be published on our website.
Questions for the AGM
The Board will focus on answering shareholder questions that have been submitted in advance of the date of the AGM, in order to optimise the time available. Shareholders wishing to ask a question of the Board should submit their question (including their Shareholder Reference Number or customer reference number), to the email address agm@share.co.uk by no later than 10am on Tuesday 16 June.
