In light of the ongoing situation associated with the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic, it is the company's intention that the meeting will take place as described above, subject to appropriate social distancing measures and in line with HM Government guidelines applicable at that time which currently means that those in physical attendance must wear an appropriate face covering. Shareholders are strongly encouraged to utilise the option to appoint the chairman of the AGM as proxy, as an alternative to attending in person, or requiring an alternative proxy to attend.
Please note that due to social distancing measures, the number of attendees in physical attendance at the AGM will be heavily restricted. If you are planning on attending in person you should contact the Group by email ( legal.mail@btguk.com ) to advise of this and provide contact details so that in the event of any change in HM Government advice you can be contacted. The Group will continue to monitor the COVID-19 situation as it evolves in the coming weeks and reserves the right to implement additional measures in advance of the meeting if these are necessary. Any such measures will be announced via the regulated news service and posted on the Group's website at https://www.begbies-traynorgroup.com/investor-relations/news .
