Prospex Energy PLC ('Prospex' or the 'Company')
Requisition to Convene a General Meeting
The Board of Prospex (the "Board") announces that it has received a letter from a group of shareholders in the Company, requisitioning a general meeting ("GM") of the Company's shareholders (the "Requisition"). The Requisition proposes that shareholders be asked to consider resolutions related to changes to the Board, including the removal of existing and proposed Directors and the appointment of new Directors, and share authorities.
Having taken legal advice, the Board has ascertained that the documentation as received is not a valid request under section 303 of the Companies Act 2006 because such a request must be made by a member of the Company recorded on the Company's register of members and accordingly the Board is not obliged to call the GM.
The Board has engaged with the group of shareholders as to the actions they need to take to validly call a GM and has invited the group of shareholders to procure that a valid request under section 303 is submitted. Further announcements will be made if and when appropriate.
