AGM Arrangements
Given prevailing Government guidance in relation to COVID-19, the AGM will be convened with the minimum quorum of Shareholders present in order to conduct the business of the AGM. The well-being of our Shareholders is vitally important to us and we ask you to instead vote by proxy on the Resolutions set out in the Notice as early as possible. To ensure that your vote is counted, it is particularly important that you appoint the Chairman as your proxy as any other person who might be appointed will not be allowed access to the AGM. All valid proxy votes on the proposed Resolutions will be included in the poll to be taken at the meeting. The results of the meeting will be announced, in the normal way, as soon as practicable after the conclusion of the AGM.
The AGM will be recorded and an audio cast of the meeting will be available for shareholders to listen to subsequently on the Company website at: www.greencoat-ukwind.com
