Questions from Shareholders
The AGM is intended to give you the opportunity to hear from Ahmed Fahour (MD & CEO) and myself on the performance of the Company. It is also an opportunity for shareholders and proxyholders to ask questions in relation to the Company that may be relevant to the AGM.
During the AGM you will be given the opportunity to ask questions about, or make comments on, the management of the Company, the Remuneration Report and the resolutions being considered at the AGM. Similarly, you will also have the opportunity to ask the Company's auditor, KPMG, questions relevant to the conduct of the audit, the preparation and content of the auditor's report, the accounting policies adopted by the Company in relation to the preparation of the financial statements, and the independence of the auditor in relation to the conduct of the audit.
You can also submit written questions in advance of the AGM by:

We will attempt to respond to as many of the frequently asked questions as possible in the Chairman's and MD & CEO's addresses at the AGM. However, due to the large number of questions we may receive, we will not be replying on an individual basis.
