Circular re electronic communications with shareholders

 

On 12 July 2013, the Company sent to its shareholders a letter concerning electronic communications. A copy of the letter is set out below for information purposes only.

 

For further information please contact:

Dear Shareholder

 

Important information regarding communications with shareholders

 

This document is important and requires your immediate attention. If you are in any doubt as to what action you should take, you are recommended to seek your own financial advice from your stockbroker or other independent adviser authorised under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000.

If you sell or transfer, or have sold or otherwise transferred, all of your shares in Bumi plc (the "Company"), please forward this document and any accompanying documents to the person through whom the sale or transfer was effected, for transmission to the purchaser(s) or transferee(s). If you sell or transfer, or have sold or otherwise transferred, only part of your holding of shares in the Company, you should retain this document and any accompanying documents.

 

At the Company's Annual General Meeting held on 26 June 2013, shareholders passed a resolution to allow the Company to use its website to publish statutory documents and communications to shareholders, such as annual reports and accounts, notices of general meetings, shareholder circulars, forms of proxy, etc. (together "Shareholder Information") as its default method of publication.

 

Therefore, in future, Shareholder Information will be published on the Company's website at www.bumi-plc.com. Reducing the number of communications sent by post will not only result in cost savings to the Company but also reduce the impact that the unnecessary printing and distribution of reports has on the environment.

 

In addition to passing a resolution to sanction this website publication, company law requires that shareholders are individually asked to consent to this method of publication; this is the purpose of this letter.

 

Please note that if you consent to website publication, you will continue to be notified each time that the Company places Shareholder Information on its website. These notifications will be sent to you by post. If you wish to receive these notifications via email, please make enquiries of Capita Registrars on 0871 664 0300* (from within UK) or + 44 20 8639 3367 (from outside UK) or register at: http://www.capitaregistrars.com/shareholders/products/ecommunications.asp

 

*Calls cost 10p per minute plus network extras

 

Actions to be taken in response to this letter

 

If you wish to consent to website publication, you do not need to take any action in response to this letter.

 

However, if you wish to continue to receive hard copies of Shareholder Information, you must return the reply slip attached to the bottom of this letter and return it to the address provided. If you do not return this slip within 28 days from the date of this letter (namely by 9 August 2013), you will be taken to have agreed (under paragraph 10(3)(b) of Schedule 5 to the Companies Act 2006) that the Company may publish Shareholder Information on its website and you will no longer receive hard copies in the post, although you will continue to be notified of each website publication by post (or by email if you have registered your email address with Capita Registrars) as explained above.

 

Should you wish in future to change your choice on how to receive Shareholder Information, you may do so at any time by writing to Capita Registrars at Shareholder Administration Support, 34 Beckenham Road, Beckenham, Kent BR3 4TU. You may request a hard copy of Shareholder Information published on the Company's website at any time from Capita Registrars who will send a copy to you free of charge within 21 days of receiving the request.

 

Yours faithfully,

 

Paul Vickers

Company Secretary
