The business of the meeting consists of a single special resolution:
To cast your vote, please visit https://www.imutual.co.uk/vote before 11am on 22nd May (48 hours before the meeting)
Notes about the resolution:
- The purpose of changing status from PLC to a private limited company is to reduce our accounting costs (by approximately £6000 per year)
- The imutual site will continue to operate as normal, including the offer of shares in addition to cashback for purchasing via our retail partners
The resolution requires a vote in favour of at least 75% (by shareholding of those voting). If passed, it is likely that at least one further meeting will be necessary to pass supplementary resolutions related to the change of status.
