MRC ASM - FAQ (FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS)

1. How can I vote for matters included in the 2023 ASM agend if there is no physical meeting?

​

Follow the instructions entitled, "Notice for MRC Allied Annual Stockholders Meeting" which is available at the company's website using the following link.

​

There is also an instruction posted in the Company's Official Facebook Page.

​

​

2. What are the different deadlines and cut off for the proxies, the voting portal and the live stream? 

​

To summarize, the deadlines are:

​

Deadline for the submission of Proxy: July 4, 2023

​

The deadline for the submission of proxies is filed in the Company's By Laws at seven (7) days before the date of the ASM. For the 2023 ASM, the deadline falls on July 4, 2023. This deadline gives a good lead time for the Proxy Validation Committee time to validate the proxies received.

​

Deadline for the registration in the Voting Portal: July 4, 2023 at 5:00 PM

​

This is to give the Corporate Secretarial Team lead time to collate and validate the votes received through the Registration Portal. The deadline has been extended from the original cut off time of 5:00 PM on July 4, 2023 to give more stockholders time to register and vote.

​

Votes cast by stockholders who registered until 5:00 PM of July 5, 2023 will be presented during the ASM.

​

Deadline for the registration in the livestream: July 4, 2023 at 5:00 PM

​

The deadline set for the Livestream is to ensure the orderly conduct of the 2023 ASM and that only stockholders and invited guests attend.

​

Rest assured, the Company had made every effort to extend these deadlines so as near to the actual time of the ASM as possible. Considering that this will be the third time the Company will be conducting its ASM via remote communication, we request your understanding on the need for as much time as necessary to ensure a smooth and orderly conduct of the 2023 ASM.
