RESULTS OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING (“the AGM”)


Shareholders are advised that, at the AGM of the Company held on Thursday, 8 August 2019,
the controlling shareholder of the company, Spanjaard Group Limited, voted against a number of
the resolutions proposed and these resolutions were therefore not approved.


The resolutions not approved included inter alia the re-election as Directors of Messrs. DP van
der Nest (Non-Executive Chairman), K Welgemoed (CEO) and I Saunders (Financial Director). In
addition, Mrs. S Hari, the Chairperson of the Audit Committee, tendered her resignation as a Non-
Executive Director at the AGM.


The Board of the Company therefore presently consists of Ms TN Spanjaard (previously Stewart)
and Messrs. G Cort and C Palmer, all of whom are Executive Directors. The Company wishes to
thank the erstwhile Directors for their services and wishes the new Board well in its endeavors.
The Company has advised that the process of replacing the necessary Independent Non-
Executive Directors has already commenced and the outcome should be announced shortly.


Details of the resolutions and the voting are contained in the table below. The issued share
capital of the Company is 8 142 850 ordinary shares and there were 6,450,587 shares/votes in
attendance at the meeting.
