Annual General Meetings - Mondi Limited and Mondi plc
As part of the dual listed company structure, Mondi Limited and Mondi plcnotify both the JSE Limited and the London Stock Exchange of matters requiredto be disclosed under the JSE Listings Requirements and/or the Disclosure andTransparency and Listing Rules of the United Kingdom Listing Authority.
The Annual General Meetings of Mondi Limited and Mondi plc were both held on 7 May 2008. 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 except resolution 17. The voting results of the Joint Electorate Actions are identical and are given below.
Resolution 17 proposed that the directors be given authority to issue shares inMondi Limited for cash, up to a limit of 5% of unissued share capital. Throughthe voting on resolution 17 and certain other resolutions, Mondi has becomeaware that South African shareholders have concerns about resolutions placingshares under the control of directors and, in particular, authorising thedirectors to issue shares for cash. We will look into this matter further tounderstand fully the concerns of South African shareholders, which we believeare not specific to Mondi.
