LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN OF
HIGHWAY CAPITAL PLC
(Incorporated and registered in England and Wales with registered number 02991159)

24 January 2022

Dear Shareholder,

The purpose of this document is to provide details of the Annual General Meeting (the "AGM") of Highway Capital Plc ("Highway" or "Company") to be held on  17 February 2022 ("AGM").  The formal notice of the AGM is set out on page  5.

Suspension and Potential Transaction

The listing in the Company's ordinary shares of 2p each (the "Ordinary Shares") was suspended on 22 September 2016. As set out in the announcement on 11 October 2021, the Company has entered into non-legally binding heads of terms for the acquisition of Guinevere Capital Esports & Entertainment which if completed will constitute a reverse takeover under the Listing Rules (the "Proposed Transaction") and would therefore result in the Company's existing listing being cancelled and the Ordinary Shares being re-admitted, subject to the FCA's approval. Negotiations in relation to the Proposed Transaction are progressing and the board of directors of the Company (the "Board") hopes to be able to make a further announcement regarding this in due course

Annual General Meeting

A notice convening the AGM is set out at the end of this document.   

The Board has been carefully monitoring the impact of COVID-19 and the impact it may have on the AGM.  At the time of publication of this document, there are no legal restrictions on public gatherings or non-essential travel that impact on the AGM although the UK Government has stated that individuals should exercise caution in attending any public gatherings.  In light of this and due to the Board's ongoing desire to protect the health of the Company's shareholders and officers, the Board strongly urges shareholders not to attend the Annual General Meeting in person but to vote by proxy.

However please note that the UK Government may bring in new regulations or public health guidance that may have an impact on the AGM and/or may restrict the number of people who are permitted to attend the AGM.  If there are any changes to the current position that necessitate any changes to the arrangements for the AGM (that may include a change in location of the AGM or the method by which Shareholders may attend), the Company will communicate this to Shareholders in advance of the Meeting through its website at highwaycapital.co.uk and via a RNS announcement.

At the AGM the following Resolutions will be proposed:

Resolution 1 - Receive Directors' Reports and Annual Accounts

Resolution 1 is to receive the reports of the Directors and auditors and the Annual Report and Accounts for the financial year ended on 28 February 2021 (the "2021 Annual Report").

Resolution 2 and 3 - Approve Directors' Remuneration Report and Remuneration Policy

Resolution 2 relates to the directors' remuneration report and resolution 3 the remuneration policy for the financial year ended 28 February 2021, which is contained within the Company's Annual Report and Accounts for the financial year ended 28 February 2021. Shareholders are being asked to vote on whether or not they approve the remuneration report and remuneration policy and this vote will be in respect of the content of the remuneration report and remuneration policy not specific to any Director's level or terms of remuneration. 

Resolution 4 - Retirement by Rotation and Re-Appointment of Directors

Resolution 4 concerns re-appointment of Directors.  Under the Company's Articles of Association, one third of Directors are obliged to retire by rotation with those who have been longest in office since their last election or appointment retiring.  Biswanath Patnaik will retire by rotation and offer himself for re-election at the AGM.

Resolution 5 - Re-Appointment of Auditors

Resolution 5 is to propose the re-appointment of Shipleys LLP as auditors of the Company for the ensuing financial year and to authorise the Directors to determine the auditors' remuneration.

Resolution 6 - Grant of authority to the Directors to allot Shares

This Resolution deals with the Directors' authority to allot Relevant Securities in accordance with section 551 of the Companies Act 2006 (the "Act"). This Resolution will, if passed, authorise the Directors to allot equity securities (as defined by section 560 of the Act) up to a maximum nominal amount of £1,045,961 which represents 52,298,040 Ordinary Shares.

This resolution revokes and replaces all unexercised powers previously granted to the Directors to allot equity securities as if section 561(1) of the Act did not apply but without prejudice to any allotment of equity securities already made or agreed to be made pursuant to such authorities.

Resolution 7 - Disapplication of statutory pre-emption rights on allotment of shares

If the Directors wish to allot unissued shares or other equity securities for cash or sell any shares which the Company may hold in treasury following a purchase of its own shares, the Act requires that such shares or other equity securities are offered first to existing shareholders in proportion to their existing holdings.

This Resolution, which is conditional on Resolution 6, will, if passed, give the Directors power, pursuant to the authority to allot granted by Resolution 6, to allot equity securities (as defined by section 560 of the Act) or sell treasury shares for cash without first offering them to existing shareholders in proportion to their existing holdings up to a maximum nominal amount of £1,045,961 which represents 52,298,040 Ordinary Shares.

Action to be taken

You are entitled to appoint one or more proxies to attend and vote at the AGM on your behalf. You will find enclosed with this document a Form of Proxy for use in connection with the AGM. Whether or not you propose to attend the AGM in person, you are requested to complete and return the Form of Proxy to the Company's registrars Neville Registrars Limited at Neville House, Steelpark Road, Halesowen, B62 8HD as soon as possible and, in any event, so as to be received no later than  11:00 a.m. on 15 February 2022.

Please note the comments above in relation to the Covid-19 restrictions when considering the appointment of your proxy.

Recommendation

The directors of the Company consider that all the proposals to be considered at the AGM are in the best interests of the Company and its members as a whole and are most likely to promote the success of the Company for the benefit of its members as a whole. The directors unanimously recommend that you vote in favour of all the proposed resolutions as they intend to do in respect of their own beneficial holdings.

Yours sincerely

Ludwik Sobolewski
