* Issued share capital
Notes:
1. As at the date of the AGM, the Company had 120,857,390 ordinary shares in issue. The Company did not hold any shares in treasury and therefore the number of total voting rights as at the date of the AGM was 120,857,390.
2. The full text of the resolutions is set out in the notice of annual general meeting, which can be found on pages 184 to 194 of the 2022 Annual Report.
3. Percentages are expressed as a proportion of the total votes cast.
4. A vote withheld is not a vote in law and is not included in the calculation of the votes "For" or "Against" the resolution.
5. Any proxy appointments which gave discretion to the Chairman have been included in the "For" total.
A copy of the resolutions passed at the Annual General Meeting have been submitted to the National Storage Mechanism in accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2R.
The proxy voting information will shortly be available on the Company's website at https://www.futureplc.com/shareholder-info/
The timetable for the cancellation of the amounts standing to the credit of the Company's share premium account and the capitalisation of the amounts standing to the credit of the Company's merger reserve as set out in the notice of meeting on page 189 of the FY 2022 Annual Report is being delayed until later in the year. An updated timetable will be announced in due course.
