Result of Annual General Meeting
boohoo.com plc announces that all resolutions were passed at the Company's Annual General Meeting held on 26 June 2015.
Resolution 9 sought authorisation to buy back up to 10% of issued share capital. This was conditional on independent shareholders approving a whitewash resolution (Resolution 11), on a poll, pursuant to Rule 9 of the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers. The Company confirms that Resolution 11 was passed on a poll with the results being as follows: 345,406,521 votes (87.65%) for, 48,678,697 votes (12.35%) against and 479,548,916 votes withheld.
Following the passing of Resolution 11, the Concert Party (as defined in the AGM Circular) remains unchanged at, in aggregate, 479,368,913 Ordinary Shares, representing 42.68% of the issued share capital of the Company. If the Board were to exercise the authority pursuant to resolution 9, in whole or in part, and cancel the Ordinary Shares acquired or put those into treasury, then the shareholding of the Concert Party would proportionately increase, up to a possible maximum of 47.42% of the issued share capital of the Company.
The full text of the resolutions is set out in the Notice of Meeting dated 15 May 2015 which is available at www.boohooplc.com
