Shareholder communications
Communications with shareholders are given a high priority. The Annual Review is sent to shareholders and a full Annual Report and Accounts is available by election or on request. At the half year, an interim report is sent to shareholders and the quarterly results are published via the London Stock Exchange and by press release. The Company’s financial reports are available to shareholders in paper and electronic form. The Company’s website (www.ici.com) provides financial and other information about ICI and contains an archive of past announcements and Annual Reports.

Shareholders have the opportunity to receive documents such as the Notice of Meeting, Form of Proxy, the Annual Report and Annual Review in electronic form via the internet rather than in paper form through the post. Shareholders choosing this option will receive a notification by email each time the Company publishes such documentation on its website. Shareholders may also appoint proxies electronically.

Overall responsibility for ensuring that there is effective communication with investors and that the Board understands the views of major shareholders rests with the Chairman, who makes himself available to meet shareholders for this purpose. On a day-to-day basis the Board’s primary contact with major shareholders is via the Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer who have regular dialogue with individual institutional shareholders and deliver presentations to analysts after the quarterly results. The Senior Independent Director and other members of the Board, however, are also available to meet major investors on request.

The Board commissions an independent survey of investor views covering both the UK and US on a biennial basis which provides valuable feedback from investors.

Individual shareholders have the opportunity at the Annual General Meeting to question the Chairman and through him the Chairmen of the Remuneration and Audit Committees. As an alternative, shareholders may leave written questions for response by the Company. After the Annual General Meeting, shareholders can meet informally with the Directors.
