Vote on a pollThe AGM script covers the legal requirements for holding an annual general meeting. This includes specifying the date, time and location of the meeting, as well as the agenda. The script also sets out the procedure for electing the company's directors and officers.
This template serves as a procedural guide, outlining the key points and actions to be undertaken during the AGM. It includes sections covering the opening and welcome, the appointment of the chairperson, disclosure of voting rights, the presentation of financial and non-financial reports, shareholder voting procedures, and the conclusion and adjournment of the meeting.

It will detail the process of distributing ballot papers, announcing the voting results, and ensuring the accuracy of the poll through scrutinizers or tellers.
By using this template, companies will be able to conduct their AGMs in a legally compliant manner, ensuring that all shareholders' voices are heard and their votes are properly counted. This template helps to enhance transparency, increase shareholder engagement, and maintain corporate governance standards, which are vital aspects of corporate operations in the UK.
