Notes
For all resolutions, as at 6.30 pm on 14 May 2019 (the time at which shareholders who wanted to attend, speak and vote at the meeting were required to have their details entered in the register of members), there were 71,123,428,837 ordinary shares in issue.
196 ordinary shareholders or persons representing ordinary shareholders attended the meeting. Ordinary shareholders are entitled to one vote per share. Votes withheld are not votes and, therefore, have not been counted in the calculation of the proportion of votes for and against a resolution. In accordance with the FCA's Listing Rules, copies of the resolutions will be submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection at www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/nsm
