Notice of Annual General Meeting 2020

Further to the publication on 8 April 2020 of the  Georgia Capital PLC (the "Company")  Annual Report and Accounts for financial year 2019, the Company has today posted or made available to shareholders the 2020 Notice of Annual General Meeting (the "Notice of AGM") and related form of proxy.

The Notice of AGM and form of proxy are available on the Company's website at  https://georgiacapital.ge . The Annual Report and Accounts for financial year 2019 also continue to be available on the Company's website. A copy of the Notice of AGM and form of proxy have also been submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism .

The Annual General Meeting will be held at 11:00 am (London time) on Thursday 4 June 2020 at the offices of Baker & McKenzie LLP, 100 New Bridge Street, London EC4V 6JA.

We are closely monitoring the impact of COVID-19 (coronavirus). It is currently the intention of the Company to hold the meeting as planned. However, the Board notes the guidance issued by the UK government restricting social gatherings in view of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the fact that if such guidance remains in place on the date of the AGM, shareholders will be prohibited from attending the AGM.

Given the current guidance and the general uncertainty on what additional and/or alternative measures may be put in place, the Board requests that shareholders do not attend the AGM but instead appoint a proxy and provide voting instructions in advance of the AGM, in accordance with the instructions explained in the Notice of AGM.

If the Board believes that it becomes necessary or appropriate to make alternative arrangements for the holding of the AGM due to COVID-19, we will ensure that shareholders are given as much notice as possible. Further information will be made available through an announcement to the London Stock Exchange and through an upload to https://georgiacapital.ge/ir/shareholder-meetings .
