* This resolution was retracted as John Gallagher stepped down from the Board following the conclusion of the AGM.

** This resolution replaced the resolution in relation to the re-appointment of John Cotter. Mr Dearsley was co-opted to the Board on 17th April 2018. This vote was carried out by the show of hands.

*** The Board notes that although resolution 5 was passed with the requisite majority, 23.26% of votes received were against the resolution. Following shareholder feedback, it is understood that the votes against Colm Barrington were largely due to a concern that Mr Barrington was over-committed to other duties, by virtue of his other directorships. However, the Company believes that Mr Barrington has proven able and willing to allocate sufficient time to the Company to discharge his responsibilities as a Non-Executive Director, having attended and contributed to all Board and Nomination Committee meetings during 2017. Mr Barrington continues to show his commitment to IFG and has demonstrated that he is able to allocate his time effectively in order to provide the time and attention that the Company requires of him as Non-Executive Director.

The recommendation for Mr Barrington's re-appointment as director was made with due consideration to the advantage of having a board member with extensive commercial experience, significant experience and familiarity in relation to IFG and, hence, an in-depth understanding of the ongoing challenges that the Company and the Board faces. Mr Barrington has continued to provide a valuable contribution to the Board and Nomination Committee, therefore the Board agreed that it was in the best interest of the shareholders to re-appoint Mr Barrington as director.
