PetroNeft Resources plc
("PetroNeft" or the "Company")
Annual General Meeting
The 2014 Annual General Meeting of the Company was held in Dublin earlier today. Resolutions 1 to 5 were duly approved by shareholders by way of show of hands.
The Chairman called for a poll in relation to resolutions 6, 7 and 8.
Resolution 6 relating to the increase of the authorised share capital of the Company was duly approved by shareholders.
Resolutions 7 and 8 relating to the Boards ability to allot shares and to disapply pre-emption rights in certain limited circumstances were both proposed as special resolutions which require approval of shareholders representing not less than 75% of votes cast. These resolutions did not achieve the sufficient majority and therefore were not passed.
A new shareholder presentation has been uploaded to the Company website at: www.petroneft.com/investor-relations/presentations/
