 www.hollywoodbowlgroup.com/investors/results-reports-and-presentations/ and on the National Storage Mechanism at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism.

2  The "For" votes include those giving the Chairman discretion.

3 The directors and the former director (and their associates) have not voted on their combined shareholdings representing 5,663,913 ordinary shares.

4 The "Vote withheld" option is provided to enable the shareholder to abstain on the resolution. It is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the percentage of shares voted "For" or "Against" the resolution.

 

Following the passing of the special resolution, and as described in the circular published by the Company on 10 March 2025, the Company has today entered into:

 

· a deed of release in respect of its shareholders;

 

· a deed of release in respect of the directors and the former director of the Company; and

 

· a buy-back deed between the Company and Investec Bank plc pursuant to which the Company has today purchased 838,263 ordinary shares. These shares will be cancelled.

 

In compliance with the Financial Conduct Authority's (the "FCA") Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules sourcebook, the Company confirms that the total number of ordinary shares of one penny (£0.01) each in issue following the entry into the buy-back deed with Investec Bank plc is 170,067,772, with each share carrying the right to one vote. No ordinary shares are held in treasury as at the date of this announcement.

 

The figure of 170,067,772 represents the total voting rights in the Company and may be used by shareholders as the denominator for calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules sourcebook.

 

In accordance with UKLR 6.4.2R, a copy of the special resolution will shortly be submitted to the National Storage Mechanism for inspection at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism.

 

Full details of the poll results will also be available on the Company's website www.hollywoodbowlgroup.com shortly.
