On February 14, 2019, Belmond held a special general meeting of shareholders (the “Special General Meeting”) at which holders of class A common shares, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company and holders of class B common shares, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company, voting together as a single class, approved the proposal to approve the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 13, 2018 (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, LVMH Moët Hennessy - Louis Vuitton SE, Palladio Overseas Holding Limited, and Fenice Ltd. (“Merger Sub”), including the statutory merger agreement attached thereto, and the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company contemplated thereby (the “Merger Proposal”). The proposal to adjourn the Special General Meeting was not necessary or appropriate because there were sufficient votes to approve the Merger Proposal.
