Following the announcement of preliminary results for the financial year ended 30 September 2020 on 27 January, the Company announces that the Annual Report and Accounts and notice of Annual General Meeting have now been posted to shareholders. The Annual Report and Accounts is also available to view on Redx's website at  www.redxpharma.com .

In light of the Stay-at-Home Measures which prohibit all non-essential travel and larger public gatherings and to ensure the safety of the limited number of people whose attendance at the meeting is essential, shareholders will not be allowed into the Annual General Meeting.

At previous Annual General Meetings, once the formal business of the Meeting has been completed, management have taken the opportunity to provide a business update presentation to those shareholders who attend the meeting in person. This year, given  measures associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, such a presentation will not be provided and the Meeting shall focus entirely upon conducting the formal business of the Meeting. However, the Company values engagement with its shareholders and, accordingly, shareholders may submit questions related to the business of the AGM to the directors in advance of the Meeting. Questions should be submitted by 5:30 p.m. on 25 February 2021 and addressed to Andrew Booth, Company Secretary, by email at [e-mail].

Following the AGM, the Board will respond to any questions submitted by shareholders in advance of the meeting and the answers will be posted on the investor FAQs section of the Company website.

Shareholders are strongly encouraged to vote by proxy, appointing the Chairman of the meeting, using the card distributed with the notice of meeting, to ensure their vote counts. The proxy is also available in the investor resources section of the Company's website:  www.redxpharma.com
