Dear Shareholder,
As you may be aware, the Company publishes its Annual Report and Accounts, Half Year Financial Report, notices of all general meeting and other statutory documents on its website at www.ibstockplc.co.uk. This includes copies of all historic documents.
The Company's Articles of Association permit the Company to communicate electronically with shareholders and, accordingly, in the interests of reducing costs, reducing the environmental impact of unnecessarily printing and distributing hard copies of such material and allowing faster access to Company material, the Board intends to use the Company's website as its default method of publication. Accordingly, the purpose of this letter is to express the Company's wish to minimise printed communication and to provide shareholders with an opportunity to confirm their preferences in this regard.
Assuming you do not object to website publication, you will be notified each time that the Company places a statutory communication on this website. This notification will be sent to you by post.
Please note that personalised communications from the Company (such as dividend elections and tax vouchers) will continue to be posted to you regardless of which option you choose below.
As a result of the proposed change in our communications policy, the Board is inviting you to let us know if you would NOT like us to communicate with you in this way.
Option (a): If you would like to be notified by email when shareholder communications have been placed on the Company's website, all you need to do is register your email address via the Share Portal, www.signalshares.com.
Option (b): If you would like to receive shareholder communications in hard copy form, please register your request via the Share Portal, www.signalshares.com or contact shareholder services, details of which are shown at the end of this letter.
If you do not update your communication preferences via the Share Portal by 30 April 2023, you will be deemed to have consented to website publication of shareholder communications and you will be notified by post when shareholder communications have been placed on the website.
You may amend your communication preference or request hard copy documents at any time after the above date, either via the share portal or by contacting shareholder services, details of which are shown at the end of this letter.
You can register online to view your holding using the Share Portal, a service offered by Link Group at www.signalshares.com. You will require your investor code which can be found at the top of this letter, on your share certificate or recent dividend confirmation.
