Jardine Lloyd Thompson - Result of AGM
Jardine Lloyd Thompson Group plc
Annual General Meeting - 1(st) May 2015
At the Annual General Meeting of Jardine Lloyd Thompson Group
plc held on Friday, 1(st) May 2015, all the proposed resolutions
were duly approved by the shareholders by way of a poll. The voting
results are set out below and are also available on the company's
website at www.jlt.com/investors/shareholder-circulars-agm.
Under the FCA's Listing Rules, as updated in May 2014, because
Jardine Matheson Holdings Limited is classed as a "controlling
shareholder" (that is, it exercises or controls, either on its own
or together with any person with whom it is acting in concert, 30%
or more of the voting rights in the Company) a resolution for the
election and re-election of Independent Directors must be passed by
a majority of votes cast by the independent shareholders of the
Company (i.e. any shareholder that is not a controlling
shareholder), as well as by a majority of votes cast by all the
shareholders.
Accordingly the results below show the voting by all
shareholders and on Resolutions 10 to 13 by the independent
shareholders. The percentage of votes cast by the independent
shareholders exclude the Jardine Matheson Holdings shareholding of
87,960,321 shares.
A vote withheld is not a vote in law and is not counted in the
calculation of the votes for or against a resolution.
