JPMorgan UK Smaller Companies AGM 2022

The Board hopes to welcome as many shareholders as possible.

As with previous years, you will have the opportunity to hear from the Investment Managers and their presentation will be followed by a question and answer session. Shareholders wishing to follow the AGM proceedings but choosing not to attend will be able to view them live and ask questions through conferencing software. Details on how to register together with access details can be found on the Company’s website: www.jpmuksmallercompanies.co.uk, or by contacting the Company Secretary at invtrusts.cosec@jpmorgan.com.

In accordance with normal practice, all voting on the resolutions will be conducted on a poll. Due to technological reasons, shareholders viewing the meeting via conferencing software will not be able to vote on the poll and we therefore encourage all shareholders, and particularly those who cannot attend physically, to submit their proxy votes in advance of the meeting, so that they are registered and recorded at the AGM. Proxy votes can be lodged in advance of the AGM either by post or electronically: detailed instructions are included in the Notes to the Notice of Annual General Meeting in the Annual Report. In addition, shareholders are encouraged to send any questions ahead of the AGM to the Board via the Company Secretary at the email address above. We will endeavour to answer relevant questions at the meeting or via the website depending on arrangements in place at the time.

If there are any changes to the above AGM arrangements, the Company will update shareholders through the Company’s website and, as appropriate, through an announcement on the London Stock Exchange.
