Bolloré Group Requisitions Further Vote on Board Representation at Aegis AGM
10 April 2008
Aegis Group plc (“Aegis”) announces that it has received a notice of requisition sent on behalf of Bolloré Group.
The notice requires that Aegis put forward the following two resolutions to shareholders at the 2008 Annual General Meeting (“AGM”), to be held on 23 May 2008.
- That Philippe Germond be appointed as a director of the Company; and
- That Roger Hatchuel be appointed as a director of the Company.
These two resolutions have been put to Aegis shareholders on four previous occasions since 2006. On each occasion they have been rejected by over 90% of non-Bolloré shareholders voting on the matter.
The Aegis Board will make a recommendation to all shareholders in due course, ahead of the AGM.
