The Marketing Group plc AGM Bulletin 20 April 2017
The Annual General Meeting (“AGM”) of The Marketing Group plc (“TMG” or the “Company”) was held in London today, 20 April 2017.
Details of the resolutions to be considered at the AGM were published in the Notice of AGM on 29 March 2017, which is available on the Company’s website: marketinggroupplc.com. The following decisions were passed, among others, at the AGM of the Company on 20 April 2017.
The AGM resolved, without discussion: to receive the Company’s Annual Report and Accounts for the financial year ended 31 December 2016; to re-appoint TGS Taylorcocks as auditors of the Company; and to authorize the Board of the Company to determine the remuneration of the auditors. No dividend will be distributed by the Company.
All Directors of the Company retired and stood for re-appointment at the AGM in accordance with the UK Corporate Governance Code, rather than on a three-year rotating basis, with the exception of Jeremy J Harbour, Callum A M Laing, Toby D Street, Hannah K Middleton and Yen T Yang who stood down in February 2017. Conrad Swailes, Prakash Somosundram, Charles Bartholomew, Mats Lundkvist and James Downton did not stand for re-appointment.
The AGM therefore resolved to elect Don H Elgie, Adam J Graham, Mike E McElhatton, Martin Blair and Glendon J Fraser as the Directors of the Company.
The further business that was considered at the AGM and resolved was that the Board be authorised to allot equity securities as defined in section 560 of the Companies Act 2006, as if section 561(1) of the Act did not apply to any such allotment, for the period expiring 15 months after the date of the AGM or, if earlier, at the next AGM of the Company. This power to allot equity securities was limited by the resolutions to certain specific circumstances detailed in the Notice of AGM.
