BB Healthcare Trust plc
Virtual AGM - joining instructions
BB Healthcare Trust plc (the "Company") has previously announced that its Annual General Meeting ("AGM") will be held on 23 April 2021 at 12 noon.
The Company published a Covid-19 statement in its Annual Report on 1 March 2021 noting that its highest priority is the health and wellbeing of its stakeholders. This has continued to be the case throughout the Covid-19 crisis, and it is for this reason that all shareholders are requested not to attend the AGM in person and appoint a proxy instead. As a consequence, the Investment Managers will not be giving a formal update presentation. However, they will be available to answer questions alongside the Board in a Question and Answer session hosted by the Chair.
Questions for the Board or the Investment Manager to consider can be submitted via the Investor Meet Company Platform up until 9.00 a.m. the day before the AGM, or via the Investment Manager's email account:
shareholder_questions@bbhealthcaretrust.co.uk . Questions can also be submitted via the Q&A function at any time during the AGM itself.
In order to ensure that shareholders are able to follow the proceedings of the AGM, the Company will provide access online via the Investor Meet Company platform. Shareholders that wish to attend the AGM should register for the event in advance via the following link:

Voting
Shareholders will not be able to vote during the AGM and are therefore requested to vote by proxy. Given the restrictions on attendance, shareholders are encouraged to appoint the "Chairman of the Meeting" as their proxy rather than another person who will not be permitted to attend the meeting. Details of how to vote, either electronically, by proxy form or through CREST, can be found in the Notes to the Notice of AGM contained in the Annual Report.
The outcome of the resolutions will be determined by shareholder vote based on the proxy votes received. All valid proxy appointments (whether submitted electronically or in hard copy form) will be included. The results of the AGM will be announced to the London Stock Exchange and placed on the Company's website, as soon as practicable after the conclusion of the AGM.
