Resolutions 10 and 11 were passed as special resolutions.
Shareholders are entitled to one vote per share. Votes withheld are not a vote in law and are therefore not counted in the calculation of the percentages of the votes cast for and against a resolution. Where shareholders appointed the Chair as their proxy with discretion as to voting, their votes were cast in favour of the resolutions and their shares have been included in the "For" column.
The total number of ordinary shares in issue is 1,025,026,106, which includes 76,554,173 ordinary shares held in treasury. Treasury shares do not carry voting rights, therefore the total number of voting rights is 948,471,933.
A copy of the resolutions passed, other than resolutions concerning ordinary business, at today's AGM will be submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will be available for inspection at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism.
