A "Vote withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the percentage of shares voted "For" or "Against" any resolution.
Resolutions 1 to 5 together with Resolutions 8 and 9 were put to the meeting and passed.
Resolution 6, an Ordinary Resolution granting the Directors power to allot shares, and which required 50 per cent. of the votes cast to be in favour in order to pass, has failed. Resolution 7, a Special Resolution which provides the Directors under Resolution 6 to allot shares without pre-emptive rights, and which required 75 per cent. of the votes cast to be in favour in order to pass, has also failed.
Nicholas Clayton, Non-Executive Chair of Trinity Exploration & Production plc, commented:
"Whilst it is disappointing that Resolutions 6 and 7 did not pass, we will engage with those shareholders who voted against these Resolutions to better understand their rationale for doing so. Following this result, should the Company be in the position to seek to allot shares, shareholder approval will be required at a General Meeting."
