EasyJet readies Brexit contingency plan

The carrier said its EU ownership, excluding British shareholders, had increased to 49.92 percent, and therefore its board was prepared to activate contingency plan of suspending shareholders’ voting rights in respect of a small number of shares on a “last in first out” basis.
