1. In calculating the results of the respective polls under the joint electoral procedure, "withheld" votes at BHP Group Plc's meeting are aggregated with "abstained" votes at BHP Group Limited's meeting. For all relevant purposes "withheld" votes and "abstained" votes have the same meaning. They are not included in the calculation of the proportion of votes for and against each resolution.
