Notes on the AGM and members’ forum
Normally, the above would constitute a formal notice of the Light Aircraft Association’s AGM. However, following the EGM and the approval to incorporate the Association into its company, PFA(Ulair)Ltd, we are currently undergoing a transitional stage moving towards the new company structure with all Association members becoming beneficial shareholders of the company. It is anticipated that, by the time of the AGM, PFA(Ulair)Ltd will have changed its name to ‘Light Aircraft Association Ltd’ and all members will be shareholders. The AGM therefore changes from an Association AGM to a shareholders’ AGM.
The EC are keen to follow the Rules (both old and new) and are therefore calling this AGM in anticipation of the transitional process being completed towards the end of 2009. Should there be an unforeseen hold-up, this AGM will become that of the Association. It’s an unusual, one-off, situation, but the alternative would be to wait until the formal transition is complete, which is rather beyond the required AGM interval. We trust members support this approach.
*Since a major part of the restructuring is the change to the Articles and Rules, any motions to change Rules should consider the proposed new rules which will come into force and are published on the Association’s website www.laa.uk.com.
Members’ Forum 10.00 am
We will be hosting a forum before the AGM, commencing at 10.00am. Topics covered will include review of the 2008 accounts, an overview of the current financial position, update on progress of the transition process, plus take questions and feedback from the floor.
All LAA members welcome.
