Regulatory Announcement
Kerry Group plc (the "Company") Notice of Extraordinary General
Meeting
An Extraordinary General Meeting ("EGM") of Kerry Group plc will
be held at the Company's Global Technology & Innovation Centre,
Millennium Park, Naas, Co. Kildare, W91 W923, Ireland on 28 January
2021 at 2pm.
The business of the EGM will be to consider and, if thought fit,
approve certain resolutions relating to the replacement of CREST
with a system operated by Euroclear Bank SA/NV for the electronic
settlement of trading in the Company's ordinary shares
("Resolutions"). Approval of the Resolutions is necessary to ensure
the Company's shares can continue to be settled electronically when
they are traded on Euronext Dublin and the London Stock Exchange
and to remain eligible for continued admission to trading and
listing on those exchanges.
The Circular which includes the Notice of the EGM (the
"Circular"), and a Form of Proxy have been posted to shareholders
today. The Board strongly urges shareholders to review the contents
of the Circular in its entirety, including the documents referred
to therein, and consider the Board's recommendation to vote in
favour of the Resolutions.
The Circular, the Form of Proxy, the Articles of Association of
the Company in the proposed amended form and copies of the
documents referred to in the Circular are available to view on the
Company's website www.kerrygroup.com/investors/investor-centre/egm
and will be available for inspection during normal business hours
on any business day from the date of this announcement until the
EGM at the registered office of the Company in Tralee, Co. Kerry,
Ireland and in the United Kingdom at the address specified for this
purpose in the Circular. Due to COVID-19 related restrictions,
shareholders are requested not to attend at the addresses above to
inspect the documents but instead to inspect them on the Company's
website.
Public Health Guidelines and the EGM
In line with Irish Government Restrictions in relation to travel
and public gatherings, which were introduced to control the spread
of COVID-19 and to limit and mitigate risks to the health and
safety of our shareholders, employees and directors, the EGM will
be held with the minimum necessary quorum of 3 shareholders present
in person, (which will be facilitated by the Chairman of the
meeting). While no other shareholder should attend the EGM in
person, all shareholders are invited to join the EGM via webcast
(Go to: www.kerrygroup.com/investors/investor-centre/egm ). As the
conditions for the holding of the EGM may change at short notice
shareholders are encouraged to consult the Company's website and to
keep up to date with Government announcements.
The Board encourages shareholders to appoint the Chairman of the
EGM as their proxy rather than another person who may not be
permitted to attend the EGM in person, by submitting a Form of
Proxy not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for the EGM,
in order to ensure their vote is counted and to be represented at
the EGM without attending in person. Instructions on how to appoint
a proxy are set out on the Form of Proxy and in the Circular.
Shareholder Questions
While personal attendance by shareholders is restricted,
shareholders can submit questions in advance of the EGM by email to
registrar@kerry.ie or by post to Kerry Group plc, Share
Registration Department, Prince's Street, Tralee, Co. Kerry, V92
EH11, Ireland to be received no later than 4 days before the
scheduled start time of the EGM. The shareholder SRN must be quoted
on all questions.
