2021 AGM
Shareholders are asked to note that as a result of the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic and the current UK Government restrictions on travel and indoor public gatherings, the Board have opted to conduct a virtual AGM on this occasion, in accordance with the Corporation's Articles of Association. Shareholders are therefore encouraged to appoint the Chairman of the AGM as their proxy. Further instructions relating to the Form of Proxy are set out in the Notice.
The Board of Directors recognises the importance of the AGM to shareholders and is keen to ensure that each is able to exercise his/her right to participate by voting. Details on how to submit proxy votes by post, online or through CREST, are set out in the Notice.
Registered shareholders may submit their questions to the Board of Directors in advance of the AGM by sending an email to the Company Secretary at TSU.cosec@lawdeb.com and the Corporation will answer these in due course.
Proposed New Articles of Association
The Corporation, in its Notice, proposes the adoption of new Articles of Association (the "New Articles"). Notwithstanding the provisions of Note 16 in the Notice, both the existing Articles of Association and the New Articles are available for inspection at the Corporation's registered office.
Should you wish to inspect the existing Articles of Association and New Articles in person, please email TSU.cosec@lawdeb.com to arrange an appointment. Alternatively, you may view both documents on the Corporation's website at:
