Notification of Change in AGM Venue

London: Informa PLC ("the Company"), the International Exhibitions, Events, Information Services and Advanced Learning Group, announces that the venue for the Annual General Meeting (AGM) has been changed to the Company's registered office at 5 Howick Place, London SW1P 1WG. As previously notified, the AGM will take place at 11.00 am, on Friday 12 June 2020.

Following the Government's Stay at Home measures and as set out in the Notice of Meeting the arrangements for the AGM are as follows:

·      It will not be possible for shareholders to attend the AGM in person. Please do not travel to the venue, as anyone who attempts to attend the AGM in person will be refused admission.

·      The AGM will be convened with the minimum quorum of shareholders as stated in the Articles of Association. Social distancing measures will be in place. 

·      As shareholders will not be able to attend the AGM in person, they should vote by submitting a proxy in advance of the AGM. To ensure that their vote counts, shareholders should only appoint the Chairman of the AGM to act as their proxy. Details of how to submit a proxy are set out below and in the Notice of Meeting.

The Board believes these measures are necessary and appropriate in light of the current pandemic to protect the health and wellbeing of the Company's shareholders and colleagues.

How to vote

The Board recommends that all shareholders register their vote in advance by appointing the Chairman of the AGM as their proxy rather than a named person (who will not be permitted to attend the meeting).  Proxy instructions can be submitted by sending a completed Form of Proxy to Computershare Investor Services PLC, The Pavilions, Bridgwater Road, Bristol, BS99 6ZY. 

Alternatively, shareholders may vote online via the website of our registrar, Computershare, at  www.investorcentre.co.uk/eproxy and entering the Control Number, Shareholder Reference Number and PIN set out on the Form of Proxy or electronic broadcast.

In order to be valid, all proxy instructions, whether in hard copy or electronic format, must be received by Computershare by 11.00am on Wednesday 10 June 2020.

The Board would like to thank shareholders for their continuing support and understanding during these extraordinary times and look forward to fully engaging again in due course.
