Results of General Meeting - Proposed Disposal of Hawthorn Leisure REIT Limited

On 28 July 2021, NewRiver published its shareholder circular (the "Circular") containing a notice of General Meeting in connection with the proposed sale of the entire issued share capital of Hawthorn Leisure REIT Limited ("Hawthorn"), the entity in the Group that holds, either directly or indirectly through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, NewRiver's entire community pub business (the "Disposal"), to AT Brady Bidco Limited for an expected gross aggregate cash consideration of approximately £222.3 million.

At the General Meeting held earlier today, the ordinary resolution to approve the Disposal was duly passed and the results of the votes are as follows:
