Volta Finance Limited (VTA / VTAS)RESULTS OF THE FOURTEENTH ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

Volta Finance Limited announces that at the Fourteenth Annual General Meeting held earlier today all resolutions proposed were duly passed.  One of these resolutions was a special resolution.

The full text of the resolutions can be found in the Notice of Meeting contained within the Annual Report and Accounts 2020, copies of which are available for viewing on the Company’s website http://www.voltafinance.com.

The Board notes the votes against the resolutions to approve the re-election of the directors, Graham Harrison, Stephen Le Page, Paul Meader and Paul Varotsis contained in resolutions 4 to 7 inclusive.  As announced on 6 December 2019, there was a similar vote against the resolutions to approve the re-election of the directors at the Company’s last Annual General Meeting.

Since then, the Board, through the Company’s corporate broker, has sought to engage with the dissenting shareholders to understand their concerns. Unfortunately, despite multiple efforts, the Board and its adviser have been unsuccessful to date in gaining any response. The Board invites the dissenting shareholders to engage, either directly through the Chairman or Senior Independent Director or through the corporate broker, so that the directors may seek to address the dissenting shareholders’ concerns. The Chairman and Senior Independent Director may be contacted at guernsey.bp2s.volta.cosec@bnpparibas.com. A further announcement will be made in due course.

Further information on the votes cast for each resolution will be available on the Company’s website shortly.
