Posting of Annual Report and Notice of Annual General Meeting

The board of directors of Northern Bear (the "Board") hereby confirms that its Annual Report and Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2021 has been posted to shareholders, together with the notice of the 2021 Annual General Meeting ("AGM") (the "AGM Notice") and associated form of Proxy.  All documents are now available from the investors section of the Company's website at  https://northernbearplc.com/investor-relations/  

Notice of AGM

The Company's Annual General Meeting is to be held at A1 Grainger, Prestwick Park, Prestwick, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE20 9SJ at 10:00am on 24th August 2021.

The Board continues to closely monitor the COVID-19 pandemic.  Whilst the UK Government's latest announcements would support the resumption of indoor gatherings, there is no guarantee that the guidance will remain the same by the date of the AGM, particularly given the substantial recent increase in COVID-19 cases.  For these reasons, and because the health and wellbeing of the Company's employees, shareholders and stakeholders is of paramount importance to us, the Board would encourage shareholders not to attend the AGM in person.  Further information is provided in the letter from the Chairman of the Company included in the AGM Notice.

The format of the meeting will be purely functional.  No business other than the resolutions set out in the AGM Notice will be considered.  Shareholders are requested to submit their votes by proxy and to appoint the chairman of the meeting as their proxy.  Further details are contained in the AGM Notice and associated form of Proxy. 

The Board recognises the importance of shareholder engagement and the opportunity for shareholders to discuss the Company's business with it.  The Directors engage regularly with shareholders on an informal basis and would be delighted to address any shareholder queries prior to, or following, the AGM, including any which shareholders wish to raise prior to submitting proxy votes for the AGM.  Any shareholders who wish to contact the Company should do so via email at [e-mail].
