Board Responsibilities

Corporate Governance:

The Directors recognise the importance of sound corporate governance and intend that the Group will comply with QCA Code.

The Board is responsible for formulating, reviewing and approving the Group’s strategy, budgets and corporate actions.

The Group has established the following committees of the Board with formally delegated duties and responsibilities.

Audit and AIM Compliance Committee

The Audit and AIM Compliance Committee has primary responsibility for monitoring the quality of internal controls, ensuring that the financial performance of the Group is properly measured and reported on. It will receive and review reports from the Group’s management and auditors relating to the interim and annual accounts and the accounting and internal control systems in use throughout the Group. The Audit Committee will meet no less than twice each year and will have unrestricted access to the Group’s auditors.

The Audit Committee comprises the three independent Non-Executive Directors Sarah Cope, James Smith and Robin Birchall with Sarah Cope as Chair of the Committee.

Remuneration Committee

The Remuneration Committee reviews the performance of Executive Directors and makes recommendations to the Board on matters relating to their remuneration and terms of employment. The committee also makes recommendations to the Board on proposals for the granting of share options and other equity incentives pursuant to any share option scheme or equity incentive scheme in operation from time to time. The Remuneration Committee will meet at least once each year.

The Remuneration Committee comprises the three independent non-executive Directors James Smith, Ian Stalker and Sarah Cope with James Smith as Chair of the Committee.

Nomination Committee

The Nomination Committee is appointed by the Board to assist the Company and the Board in fulfilling their respective corporate governance responsibilities under applicable laws, to promote a culture of integrity throughout the Company and to assist the Company in identifying and recommending new nominees for election to the board. The Nomination Committee will meet at least twice a year.

The Nomination Committee comprises the three Non-Executive Directors, Ian Stalker, Sarah Cope and James Smith with Ian Stalker as Chair of the Committee.

Shareholder Rights

Helium One Global Ltd is not incorporated in the United Kingdom (UK) and the rights of shareholders may be different from the rights of shareholders in a UK incorporated Company. Shareholders should refer to the Company’s constitutional documents for further details.

UK City Code on Takeovers and Mergers

Helium One is incorporated in the BVI and it is not treated by the Takeover Panel as resident in the UK, the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man and therefore it is not subject to the Takeover Code. However, the Company has incorporated certain provisions in its Articles of Association which are broadly similar to those of Rule 9 of the Takeover Code, further details of which are contained in paragraph 6.3 of Part VI of the Company’s recent Admission Document published on 16 November 2020.

It should however be noted that as the Takeover Panel will have no role in the interpretation of these provisions, Shareholders will not be afforded the same level of protection as is available to a company subject to the Takeover Code which now has the effect of law for those companies within its jurisdiction.
