NOTES

 

IF YOU HAVE EXECUTED A STANDING PROXY, YOUR STANDING PROXY WILL BE VOTED AS INDICATED IN NOTE 2 BELOW, UNLESS YOU ATTEND THE MEETING IN PERSON OR SEND IN A SPECIFIC PROXY.

 

1

A proxy need not be a member of the Company. A member entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting is entitled to appoint one or more proxies to attend and vote in his/her stead.

 

2

Any standing proxy previously deposited by a member with the Company will be voted in favour of the resolutions to be proposed at the Meeting unless revoked prior to the Meeting or the member attends the Meeting in person or executes a specific proxy.

 

3

A form of proxy for use at the Meeting is enclosed. Whether or not you propose to attend the Meeting in person, you are strongly advised to complete and sign the enclosed form of proxy in accordance with the instructions printed on it and then deposit it (together with any power of attorney or other authority under which it is signed or a notarially certified copy of that power or authority) at the offices of the Offices 4, One Central, Dubai World Trade Centre, Dubai, United Arab Emirates, or send copies of the foregoing by email to Abdullah.mansour@swvl.com, in each case marked for the attention of Abdullah Mansour, not later than 48 hours before the time for the holding of the Meeting or adjourned Meeting in accordance with the Articles of Association of the Company.

A member holding more than one share entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting need not cast the votes in respect of such shares in the same way on any resolution and therefore may vote a share or some or all such shares either for or against a resolution and/or abstain from voting a share or some or all of the shares and, subject to the terms of the instrument appointing any proxy, a proxy appointed under one or more instruments may vote a share or some or all of the shares in respect of which he is appointed either for or against a resolution and/or abstain from voting.
