The Board has considered the results of the Annual General Meeting today and notes the number of votes cast against Resolution 3 which received under 80 per cent. approval. We have engaged with our major shareholders ahead of the vote and understand their views on this matter.
Dominik Dolenec has asked to step down as Chairman of the Company and Brendan Hawthorne has been elected as Chairman by the Directors. Now that the majority of the work required to wind up the activities of the Company has been completed or is well underway, Mr. Dolenec and the Board felt it appropriate to transition the role as Chairman to a non-executive director. Mr. Dolenec will remain an Executive Director with a particular focus on maximising the recovery of the Company's investment in Princeton. The Board expresses their sincere thanks on behalf of all of the Company's shareholders for his executive leadership in the portfolio restructuring and the wind down of the Company.
Separately, the Company has also been notified that Oaktree Value Equity Holdings, L.P. and LIM Advisors (London) Limited have agreed with each other, subject to certain conditions, not to requisition any addition to or removal from the Company's Board of Directors for the period up to 31 December 2019.
A copy of all resolutions passed as special business will shortly be available for inspection on the National Storage Mechanism at www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/NSM.
A copy of the voting results shown above will also be made available on the Company's website at www.rdlrealisationplc.co.uk
