Notice of General Meeting

 

The Company announces that a General Meeting will be held on Tuesday 25 May 2021, at The Long Barn, Cobham Park Road, Downside, Surrey KT11 3NE England at 10.00 am (BST). The Company has published the formal notice of the meeting (the “Notice”) on its website which can be accessed using the following link https://bit.ly/3dMm7at. Proxy voting forms are being posted to all shareholders providing details of how to access the Notice and instructions for voting. A copy of the Notice together with proxy voting forms is being posted to all shareholders who are required to receive or have formally requested to receive these documents.

The Notice contains a letter from the Chairman of the Company, Mr Nicolas Bañados, which is set out below in the Appendix.

Changes to the format of the General Meeting

The Board continues to closely monitor developments in relation to the Covid-19 pandemic and the health and wellbeing of the Company’s shareholders and employees continue to remain of paramount importance. As a result of the UK Government’s current guidance on social distancing and the prohibition on public gatherings due to the Covid-19 pandemic, it is expected that shareholders will not be permitted to attend the General Meeting.

The General Meeting will be convened in accordance with the Company’s Articles of Association and in line with the UK Government guidance. The Company will make arrangements such that the legal requirements to hold the General Meeting can be satisfied through the attendance of a minimum number of people who are essential for the business of the General Meeting, and the format of the General Meeting will be purely functional. Having regard to their own safety and that of others, the Board respectfully requests that, if these restrictions remain in place at the time of the General Meeting (as they are expected to), shareholders comply with the UK Government’s current guidance and do not make plans to attend the General Meeting.

To ensure the safety of the limited number of people whose attendance at the General Meeting is essential, we will not be able to allow any other Shareholders to gain access to the General Meeting on the day. If it becomes possible to admit Shareholders to the General Meeting, we will make an announcement on our website (www.serabigold.com) and via a Regulatory Information Service. To ensure that Shareholders’ votes are counted, the Board strongly encourages all Shareholders to exercise their right to vote by appointing the Chairman of the General Meeting as their proxy to vote at the General Meeting on their behalf, in accordance with their instructions. Shareholders should not appoint any person other than the Chairman of the General Meeting to act as their proxy, as that person will likely not be granted access to the General Meeting on the day and their appointing shareholder’s votes will not be able to be counted.
