| Shareview |
A website, www.shareview.co.uk, has been developed by Equiniti, the Company’s Registrar, enabling shareholders to access details of shareholdings online. The website provides information useful to the management of investments together with an extensive schedule of frequently asked questions. In order to gain access to shareholdings the shareholder reference number is required, which can be found at the top of the Company’s share certificates.
Shareholders can register to receive shareholder communications, including the Company’s Report and Accounts, electronically, rather than in paper form, using Shareview. The registration process requires input of the shareholder reference number. To ensure that shareholder communications are received in electronic form, “email” should be selected as the mailing preference. Once registered, shareholders will be sent an e-mail notifying them each time that a shareholder communication has been published on the Company’s website. |
