Lord Turner did not stand for re-election as a Non-Executive
Director of the Company, and retired from the Board with effect
from the conclusion of the AGM.
Mr Foley, Mr Nicandrou and Mr Falcon did not stand for election or
re-election and their appointment as Executive Directors ceased
with effect from the conclusion of the AGM. They will however
continue to serve as members of the Group Executive
Committee.
As at 6.30pm (UK time) on 14 May 2019, the number of issued shares
of the Company was 2,559,708,677 ordinary shares, which was the
total number of shares entitling the holders to attend and vote for
or against all 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. 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.
Pursuant to Listing Rule 9.6.2 of the UK Listing Rules, copies of
all resolutions, other than those concerning ordinary business,
passed at the AGM on 16 May 2019, will shortly be available to view
via the National Storage Mechanism at http://www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/NSM
