C&C Group PLC - Dublin-based beer, cider, wine, spirits, and soft drinks maker and distributor across UK and Ireland - Puts in place 'cooperation agreement' with disgruntled shareholder Engine Capital LP, under which the C&C board and the investor will "work constructively" together. Engine, a 5.0% shareholder, had nominated two directors for election to the C&C board at its August 15 annual general meeting, noting the majority of the current C&C directors own no C&C shares at all. It now will withdraw these nominations. However, C&C will appoint a new non-executive director "with capital markets expertise" from a short-list agreed with Engine, C&C says, and Engine will support all resolutions at next week's AGM.
