How to Vote

Your vote counts

  • For the Scheme to proceed, it is necessary that sufficient CSR Shareholders vote in favour of the Scheme. The CSR Directors unanimously recommend that Shareholders vote in favour of the Scheme, in the absence of a Superior Proposal, and subject to the Independent Expert continuing to conclude that the Scheme is fair and reasonable and in the best interest of CSR Shareholders. The interests of the CSR Directors in CSR Shares, including the interests of Julie Coates, Managing Director and CEO of CSR, are set out in section 9.1 of the Scheme Booklet.  You should have regard to these interests when considering how to vote on the Transaction.
