*Special resolution
 
The full text of Resolutions 16 to 22 (inclusive) is set out in the Notice of Annual General Meeting and explanation of business dated 9 April 2025.
 
As at 6.30pm London time, or 4.30pm Hong Kong time for the Hong Kong branch register, on 12 May 2025, the number of issued shares of the Company (excluding any shares that were bought back and pending cancellation) was 2,605,077,215 ordinary shares. This was the total number of shares entitling the holders to attend and vote for or against all of the resolutions at the AGM. In accordance with the Company's Articles of Association, on a poll every member present in person or by proxy has one vote for every share held.
 
There were no restrictions on shareholders to cast votes on any of the resolutions proposed at the AGM, save for the Directors (excluding independent non-executive directors) and their respective associates who were required to abstain, and have abstained from voting on Resolution 17 which affected a total of 285,151 voting rights. Votes withheld are not votes in law and therefore have not been counted in the calculation of the proportion of the votes for and against a resolution. Proxy appointments which gave discretion to the Chair have been included in the total of votes 'for' the respective resolutions. The scrutineer of the poll was Computershare Investor Services PLC, the Company's Share Registrar.
 
All Directors of the Company attended the AGM in person.
 
Pursuant to Listing Rule 6.4.2 of the UK Listing Rules, a copy of all resolutions, other than those concerning ordinary business, passed at the AGM on 14 May 2025, will shortly be available to view on the National Storage Mechanism at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism.
