Annual General Meetings - Mondi Limited and Mondi plc
As part of the dual listed company structure, Mondi Limited and Mondi plc
notify both the JSE Limited and the London Stock Exchange of matters required
to be disclosed under the Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited and/or the
Disclosure and Transparency and Listing Rules of the United Kingdom Listing
Authority.
The Annual General Meetings of Mondi Limited and Mondi plc were both held on 13
May 2015. As required by the dual listed company structure, all resolutions
were treated as Joint Electorate Actions and were decided on a poll. All
resolutions at both meetings were passed. The voting results of the Joint
Electorate Actions are identical and are given below. Overall in excess of 62%
of the total Group shares were voted.
The directors have noted that the votes against resolutions 20, 21, 22, 29 and
30 were higher than for other resolutions. These resolutions relate to the
authority to be given to directors to allot and issue shares. The voting is in
line with the pattern Mondi has seen at previous Annual General Meetings.
Having engaged with shareholders in this regard over recent years the directors
are aware that South African shareholders in particular (who represent over 44%
of the total voting shares) have particular concerns about these types of
resolution. We understand from our engagement with shareholders that this is
not specific to Mondi and they routinely vote against such resolutions as a
matter of policy.
