Notice of Annual General Meeting ("AGM") - Correction to the
Notes to Resolution 4
On 8 April 2019 the Company announced that its 2019 AGM will be
held at 3.00pm on Thursday, 23 May 2019 at the offices of Deutsche
Bank AG, Winchester House, 1 Great Winchester Street, London, EC2N
2DB and the posting of a circular to shareholders (the "Circular")
containing notice of the resolutions to be considered at the AGM
(the "Notice").
Resolution 4 as set out in the Notice proposes that Nick Hugh be
appointed by shareholder resolution as a Director of the Company,
having been appointed by the Board as a Director on 27 February
2018, after the text for the Company's 2018 Annual Report was
finalised.
Although biographical details for Nick Hugh have been available
on the Company's website since the date of his appointment as a
Director
(https://www.gocogroup.com/about-goco/our-people/the-board/nick-hugh/),
the notes to Resolution 4 did not set out biographical details for
Nick Hugh. These details are now set out for shareholders in the
appendix to this announcement and should be considered alongside
the notes to Resolution 4.
Given this correction does not affect the text of any
resolution, no new Notice will be sent out but copies of this
announcement will be posted to shareholders and submitted to the
National Storage Mechanism, where it will be available for
inspection. This announcement will also be made available on the
Company's website at
www.gocogroup.com/investors/shareholder-centre/agm, together with
the Notice.
A copy of this announcement will be available for inspection at
the Company's registered office (GoCompare.com Group plc, Imperial
House, Imperial Way, Newport, Gwent, NP10 8UH) until the close of
the AGM and may also be inspected at the AGM venue from 2:30pm on
the date of the meeting and during the meeting.
