Shareholder Meeting Request
PGG Wrightson Limited (PGW) advises that late last week it received the attached request from Agria (Singapore) Pte Ltd (Agria) requesting that a special shareholders meeting be convened to consider the resolutions set out in the notice seeking a number of board changes.
Following receipt of the notice on the afternoon of 8 February 2024 PGW promptly sought to engage with Agria in relation to the matters outlined in the notice and sought advice from its external lawyers, Chapman Tripp. The PGW Board convened on 12 February and 13 February to discuss the notice and has continued to liaise with Agria to explore whether Agria would withdraw the request to enable a more constructive board transition to take place.
Following further dialogue today, Agria has this afternoon confirmed that it will not withdraw the notice requesting that a special shareholders meeting be convened and accordingly PGW is preparing for a shareholders meeting.
The PGW Board will issue a notice of meeting at the relevant time together with appropriate information for shareholders about the matters to be addressed at the meeting.
