Given the constraints we have faced in recent times due to the COVID-19 pandemic, your Board is pleased to have the opportunity to meet shareholders in person at the Meeting. As at the date of the Notice of Meeting, there are no UK Government restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic in place. Although this is not anticipated to change, you are encouraged to monitor our website and also announcements via the Regulatory News Service in the event that alternative arrangements for the AGM need to be made. Please note that no presentations on the Company's business will be given at the Meeting and no refreshments will be available. Instead, the Board has arranged for a presentation to be made available on the Company's website at www.harbourenergy.com on the morning of 11 May 2022.
