RESULTS OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

14 July 2016

Workspace Group PLC announces that each of the resolutions set out in the notice of Annual General Meeting dated 13 June 2016 were passed on a show of hands by shareholders at today's Annual General Meeting.

Danny Kitchen, Chairman, commented:

"I would like to thank all of our shareholders who voted on the resolutions for our Annual General Meeting today. We also issued our Q1 Interim Management Statement this morning, in which we outlined that it has been an active quarter with continued growth in our like-for-like rent roll, as well as a good performance from our completed refurbishments and redevelopments. The completion of the BlackRock joint venture and sale of the remaining properties in the JV has further strengthened our balance sheet and we are well positioned to take advantage of opportunities to continue to grow the business and deliver shareholder value."  

Resolutions passed at the meeting included the following:

·    Resolution 13 on the renewal of the Directors' authority to allot shares, such authority to expire at the conclusion of the next Annual General Meeting  of the company in 2017 or, if earlier, on 30 September 2017;

·     Resolution 14 on the renewal of the Directors' authority to disapply pre-emption rights, such authority to expire at the conclusion of the next Annual General Meeting of the company in 2017 or, if earlier, on 30 September 2017;

·   Resolution 15 on the renewal of the Directors' authority for the purchase by the company of its own shares, such authority to expire at the conclusion of the next Annual General Meeting of the company in 2017 or, if earlier, on 30 September 2017;

·    Resolution 16 on the adoption of new articles of association of the company in substitution for, and to the execution of, the existing articles of association of the company; and

·     Resolution 17 on the authority of the company to call a general meeting on 14 clear days' notice.
