FRESNILLO PLC - RESULT OF AGM

The Board is pleased to announce that all of the resolutions put to shareholders at today's Annual General Meeting were passed by means of a poll, including the ordinary resolutions (resolutions 1 to 18) and special resolutions (resolutions 19 to 22) as set out in the Company's notice of AGM dated 23 April 2024. The votes cast for resolutions 9 to 15 relating to the re-election and election of the independent Directors were duly passed by both a majority of the votes cast by the independent shareholders as well as by a majority of votes cast by all shareholders. These votes have been calculated separately and are shown below (independent shareholder votes cast being marked **)

The final voting figures are shown below.

(*) = Includes discretionary votes

(**) =Votes cast by the independent shareholders

As at the date of the AGM, the number of issued shares and total voting rights of the Company was 736,893,589 shares in issue. The Company's Articles of Association set out that every member who is present in person or by proxy shall have one vote for every share of which he is the holder on a poll. The scrutineer of the poll was Equiniti Limited.

In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2, Fresnillo plc has submitted a copy of the resolutions dealing with the special business put to shareholders at the AGM today to the National Storage Mechanism, which will shortly be available for inspection at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism

The Board is pleased with the support from shareholders for the majority of the resolutions but notes that resolution 9 (re-election of Alberto Tiburcio) was passed by 96.55% of the total votes cast, and by 78.03% of votes cast by independent shareholders. As noted in the Annual Report, the Board considers it to be in the best interests of the Company that Mr Tiburcio serves as a Director and considers him to be independent in character and judgement. The Board notes the level of dissent on this resolution among some shareholders and given the importance of the views of all the Company's shareholders to the Board, it will engage with those independent shareholders to understand the reasons for their votes against it. An update will be published on that engagement within six months.
