Notes
(1) Includes those votes giving the Chair discretion
(2) A ' vote withheld' is not a vote in law and is not counted in the caluclation of votes ' for' or ' against' a resolution
(3) Passed as a special resolution and requiring a 75 percent majority
(4) As noted in the circular published by IntegraFin Holdings plc on 16 January 2020 (the "Circular"), Patrick Snowball (as a former director), the current directors (including Mike Howard, in his capacity as a director and a substantial shareholder) and their associates undertook to abstain from voting on resolution 20 as they were deemed to be 'related parties' of the Company for the purposes of the Listing Rules. Their combined shareholding represented 50,781,882 ordinary shares (approximately 15.3 percent of the Company's existing ordinary share capital) as at the date of the Annual General Meeting and these shares are therefore recorded as votes withheld in respect of resolution 20.
Following the passing of resolution 20 (and as described in detail in the Circular), the Company has today entered into a deed of release in respect of its shareholders and a deed of release in respect of its Directors and former directors in each case in the form that was annexed to the Circular.
The number of £0.01 ordinary shares in issue on 20 February 2020 was 331,322,014. Shareholders are entitled to one vote per share.
In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2, a copy of each resolution passed as a special resolution has been submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be made available for inspection at http://www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/NSM .
The results will shortly be available on the Company's website at https://www.integrafin.co.uk.
