2021 Annual General Meeting ("AGM") - Change of Arrangements
This announcement provides an update to The Restaurant Group's
AGM arrangements, as detailed in the Notice of Annual General
Meeting published on 19 April 2021 (a copy of the Notice of AGM can
be obtained on the Company's website at
https://www.trgplc.com/investors/reports-presentations/ ).
The UK Government has confirmed a further easing of lockdown
restrictions in England from today, with the implementation of Step
3 of the Government's roadmap out of lockdown. As part of Step 3,
public gatherings organised on business premises are allowed,
subject to complying with on-going Covid-secure requirements
including social distancing. As a consequence, shareholders or
their representatives will be permitted to attend the Company's AGM
on 25 May 2021 in person. However, the health and wellbeing of our
shareholders, colleagues and guests is of paramount importance to
us. Coronavirus restrictions remain in place and the Government has
urged people to continue to reduce the risk of catching coronavirus
by maintaining social distancing and reducing the time spent in
crowded areas. Therefore, notwithstanding the partial relaxation of
Government restrictions, shareholders and corporate representatives
are strongly encouraged not to attempt to attend the AGM in person
and to continue to vote by proxy.
Voting by proxy
We remind shareholders of the arrangements for voting by
proxy:
-- you can appoint a proxy electronically by visiting
www.sharevote.co.uk. You will need your Voting ID, Task ID and
Shareholder Reference Number (as printed on your Form of Proxy).
Alternatively, if you have already registered with Equiniti's
online portfolio service, Shareview, you can submit your Form of
Proxy at www.shareview.co.uk. Full instructions are given on both
websites. To be valid your proxy appointment and instructions
should be made no later than 10:00 am on Friday 21 May 2021;
-- you can appoint a proxy by completing your Form of Proxy.
This should be returned as soon as possible and, in any event, must
be received no later than 10:00 am on Friday 21 May 2021;
-- CREST holders should refer to the instructions set out in
note 6 on page 7 of the Notice of AGM.
To ensure that their vote is counted at the AGM, we encourage
shareholders to continue to appoint the Chairman of the Meeting as
their proxy rather than running the risk of appointing another
person who may not be able to attend on the day. All resolutions
will be decided by way of a poll so that the votes of shareholders
who do not attend in person will be counted.
Shareholder questions
We have set up a dedicated electronic mailbox for shareholders
who do not attend the AGM in person, to ask questions of the Board
of Directors. Please send your questions to AGMquestions@trgplc.com
by no later than 12 noon on 25 May 2021, stating your name and
Shareholder Reference Number (as printed on your Form of Proxy). We
will collate the questions we receive and will select a
representative sample which will be answered on the Company's
website at www.trgplc.com promptly after the AGM. We will also
provide answers directly to the shareholders who asked the
questions.
Covid-secure measures
Shareholders or their duly authorised representatives intending
to attend the AGM in person should register their attendance by 10
a.m. on Friday 21 May 2021 by sending their details to
cosec@trgplc.com . For Covid-safety reasons, guests will not be
allowed to attend this year.
Any shareholders or their duly authorised representatives
attending the AGM in person must abide by strict Covid-secure
measures, which will include social distancing at all times and
following the safety guidelines when on the premises. Attendees
must wear a facemask when moving around the building unless they
are exempt or have a reasonable excuse. For Covid-safety reasons,
no refreshments will be available and there will not be the usual
opportunity to interact with Directors before or after the meeting.
You should get a test and follow the Government's stay at home
guidance if you have Covid-19 symptoms.
