Notice of AGM

KCR Residential REIT plc announces that it is sending to shareholders notice of its annual general meeting, which will be held at 11:30 a.m. on 23 March 2020 at the offices of Blake Morgan LLP, 6 New Street Square, London EC4A 3DJ.

The Company is also writing to all registered shareholders regarding its intention to adopt electronic communication methods for shareholder documents and information, as permitted under the Companies Act 2006 and KCR's articles of association. Increased use of electronic communications will deliver cost savings and speed up the provision of information to members, and the reduced use of paper will have environmental benefits.

Shareholders wishing to continue to receive shareholder documents in printed form will need to notify the Company's registrar, Share Registrars Limited, by no later than 26 March 2020, by completing and returning the reply slip included in the letter.  Shareholders who do not return the reply slip will be deemed to have consented to receiving shareholder documents and information by means of KCR's website and will no longer receive printed documentation.
