Results of 2016 Annual General Meeting: Special Dividend and Share Consolidation
 
 
The Annual General Meeting of InterContinental Hotels Group PLC was held on 6 May 2016. All resolutions set out in the Notice of AGM sent to Shareholders on 4 April 2016 were duly passed, including the resolution in connection with IHG's proposed Share Consolidation.
 
Special Dividend
 
The Share Consolidation was proposed in the context of a Special Dividend of US$6.329 per Existing Ordinary Share or per ADS (as applicable) immediately prior to the Share Consolidation. Following today's approval of all of the resolutions by Shareholders, it is proposed to pay the Special Dividend of US$6.329 per Existing Ordinary Share or per ADS (as applicable) to Shareholders on the Register as at 6.00pm today, 6 May 2016, in Pounds Sterling and to ADR holders on the ADR register as at 4.00pm (New York time) today, 6 May 2016 (being the close of business on the day before the ADR effective date), in US dollars. The Pounds Sterling amount to be paid in respect of the Special Dividend will be calculated on 12 May 2016, based on the average of the market exchange rates on the three dealing days commencing 9 May 2016, using the WM/Reuters closing midpoint spot rate as at 4:00pm (London time). The Special Dividend is expected to be paid to Shareholders and to holders of ADRs on 23 May 2016.
