The Board appreciates the support shown by the majority of
Shareholders for the resolutions at today's AGM. We note the
significant minority vote against the Company's Remuneration
Report. We are also aware of the guidance from ISS which states
that payment of transaction-related bonuses is not in line with its
policy. The Remuneration Committee specifically considered this
point, together with the guidance from ISS, at the time the payment
was approved and determined that, in this case, a modest
transaction-related bonus of the level approved was entirely
appropriate in recognition of the additional and intensive work
involved during and immediately following the transaction, which
provided savings in terms of professional fees significantly in
excess of the approved amount.
Notes:
-- The full text of each of the resolutions is contained in the
Notice of Annual General Meeting dated 16
August 2022, which is available on the Company's website at https://www.eckoh.com .
-- Proxy appointments which gave discretion to the Chairman of
the AGM have been included in the "For" total for the appropriate
resolution.
-- A "Withheld" vote is not a vote in law and is not counted in
the calculation of the proportion of the votes cast "For" or
"Against" a resolution.
-- The proportion of "Total % Instructed" is the total of votes
instructed for that resolution (i.e. the total votes "For",
"Against" and "Withheld" for that resolution) expressed as a
percentage of the issued share capital.
-- The issued share capital of the Company as of 14 July 2022
was 292,869,261 ordinary shares of 0.25p each. As of 14 July 2022,
the Company holds 1,943,311 shares in the Company in Treasury
shares.
