2023 Annual General Meeting
Sydney: Tuesday, 3 October 2023
Endeavour Group Limited �ASX�EDV�today updates information in the Notice of Annual General Meeting published on 27 September 2023 �Notice).
Endeavour advises shareholders that a resolution for the election of Mr William Wavish, a non-Board endorsed director candidate, will be put to a shareholder vote at its Annual General Meeting �AGM�on 31 October 2023.
Endeavour is concerned by the ongoing and significant disruption associated with this matter. Following engagement with ASX and an associated determination received by Endeavour on this matter, Endeavour advises that the resolution will be considered by shareholders at its upcoming AGM. The proposed resolution �Item 3 in the Notice) will be amended at the AGM so that the election of Mr Wavish will be conditional upon receipt of the necessary regulatory approvals, unless Endeavour has received prior confirmation that Mr Wavish is not approved by one or more regulatory authorities.
Endeavour has initiated the process for Mr Wavish to obtain the regulatory approvals required to be eligible for appointment or election as a director.
In the interests of good governance, the Board remains committed to running a structured process to identify new independent non-executive director candidates in alignment with Board succession planning. An invitation for Mr Wavish to participate in this process remains open.

Endeavour recognises that if the necessary regulatory approvals for Mr Wavish have not been obtained by the AGM, and the resolution for his election is passed, there is a risk that the company may be non-compliant with gaming and liquor laws, including conditions related to its business operating licences. Endeavour had relied on the eligibility requirements in the Constitution to address and remove this risk, but will now engage with state-based regulatory bodies regarding Mr Wavish’s director nomination and seek to minimise the risk of non-compliance with liquor and gaming requirements.
The amendment of the resolution in Item 3 of the Notice does not otherwise affect the meeting materials that have been dispatched to shareholders.
The release of this announcement was authorised by the Disclosure Committee.
