Annual General Meeting 2021
Highcroft Investments plc
(the "Company" or "Highcroft")
Results of the Annual General Meeting held on 20 May 2021
Highcroft announces that at its Annual General Meeting, which
was held at 12.00 today, all the proposed resolutions were duly
approved by the shareholders by way of a poll. Resolutions 1 to 9
were proposed as ordinary resolutions and resolutions 10 and 11
were proposed as special resolutions. The voting results are set
out below and are also available on the Company's website at
www.highcroftplc.com.
Under the Financial Conduct Authority's Listing Rules, because
the Kingerlee Concert Party is classed as a "controlling
shareholder" (defined as a person who exercises or controls, on
their own or together with any other person with whom they are
acting in concert, 30% or more of the voting rights in the Company)
a resolution for the election and re-election of independent
directors must be approved by an ordinary resolution of, the
shareholders and separately approved by, those shareholders who are
not controlling shareholders (the "Independent Shareholders").
Accordingly, the results below show the voting by all
shareholders and, separately, on resolutions 4 and 8 only, the
voting by the Independent Shareholders (which excludes the voting
interest of the Kingerlee Concert Party, as controlling
shareholder, holding 2,127,382 ordinary shares which represents
41.04% of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company).
