MILWAUKEE, Wisconsin – June 9, 2022 – Luxfer Holdings PLC (NYSE: LXFR) (“Luxfer” or the “Company”), a global industrial company innovating niche applications in materials engineering, today confirms that its meeting of the holders (the “Deferred Shareholders”) of deferred shares of £0.0001 each (the “Deferred Shares”) has been adjourned to Tuesday, June 21, 2022 at 3:00 p.m. BST (the “Adjourned Meeting”). The Adjourned Meeting will take place at the Company’s registered address, particularly the Luxfer MEL Technologies site, located at:

United Kingdom
Please refer to the Meeting Location Map, available for download below, for further details on the location of the Adjourned Meeting. The Adjourned Meeting will be held on a hybrid basis, with a physical meeting being held at the address listed above and the Chair attending via video conference.
The Company’s initial Deferred Shareholders Meeting was held on June 8, 2022 (the “Initial Meeting”). The Initial Meeting was inquorate, as the Company’s Articles of Association required a quorum at the Initial Meeting of at least two persons entitled to vote and holding or representing by proxy not less than one third in nominal value of the Deferred Shares in issue. As this quorum was not achieved, the Initial Meeting was adjourned to June 21, 2022.
At the Adjourned Meeting, Deferred Shareholders will be asked again to pass a special resolution approving a capital reduction comprising the cancellation of all Deferred Shares in the capital of the Company and the repayment of a nominal sum to the Deferred Shareholders. The Board of Directors has proposed the cancellation of the Deferred Shares to tidy up the Company’s balance sheet and augment its reserves. Further information on this proposal is set out in the Notice of Deferred Shareholders Meeting (the “Notice”), which is available for download below. As stated in the Notice, proxies submitted by Deferred Shareholders in relation to the Initial Meeting are still effective and will be voted at the Adjourned Meeting. Deferred Shareholders who have already submitted proxy votes may change or revoke their proxy before it is voted at the Adjourned Meeting in the following ways:
- By mailing a proxy card that is properly signed and dated later than their previous vote and that is received at the address listed on the proxy card by June 20, 2022; or
- By voting via the internet or phone at a later date than their previous vote but prior to the voting deadline of 11:59 p.m. EDT on June 20, 2022 (4:59 a.m. BST on June 21, 2022).
In addition, the deadline for submission of proxy votes has been extended to 11:59 p.m. EDT on June 20, 2022. Deferred Shareholders who have not yet submitted proxy votes are encouraged to do so prior to this deadline by following the instructions set out in the Notice.

Information and Concerns Related to COVID-19
Although we plan to hold the Adjourned Meeting in person, considering the ongoing public health concerns surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, we may deem it necessary to hold the Adjourned Meeting solely by means of remote communication (i.e., a virtual-only meeting) or using a different style of hybrid meeting. In the event of such necessity, we will announce the decision in a press release. The details will also be posted on our website at www.luxfer.com. While the health and wellbeing of our stakeholders is our top priority, we are also committed to ensuring that Deferred Shareholders can exercise their right to vote with respect to the special resolution proposed at the Adjourned Meeting. Due to the potential risks of attending the Adjourned Meeting in person and restrictions on travel and public gatherings, we encourage our Deferred Shareholders to vote by internet, phone, or mail.
