Notes

1.

Any proxy appointments which gave discretion to the Chairman have been included in the "Total votes for" total.

2.

A "Vote Withheld" is not a valid vote in English law and was not counted in the calculation of the proportion of the votes "For" or "Against" a resolution.

3.

As at the date of the AGM the issued share capital of the Company was 196,681,818 ordinary shares of 3.33 pence each.

 

The Board would like to thank shareholders for their engagement and support ahead of the AGM and throughout the year. While the majority of the resolutions were passed with majorities in excess of 99%, the Board notes that Resolution 4 (to re-elect Darren Shapland as a Director) and Resolutions 12 (Directors' Authority to Allot Shares), 13 (Disapplication of Pre-emption Rights - General), 14 (Disapplication of Pre-emption Rights - Specific) and 15 (Authority to Make Market Purchases of Shares) passed with a majority of less than 80% (receiving votes in favour of 77.68%, 77.61%, 77.62%, 77.63% and 77.03% respectively).

 

In accordance with provision 4 of the UK Corporate Governance Code (the "Code"), the Board confirms that it will consult and engage with the relevant shareholders to understand and discuss their views with respect to these resolutions. An update will be provided within six months of the AGM, in accordance with the Code.

 

These results will shortly be available on the Company's website at http://www.toppstilesplc.com/  and, in accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2, copies of the resolutions that were passed at the meeting and that do not constitute ordinary business at an annual general meeting will be submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection at www.data.fca.org.uk
