Notes:

1. Any proxy appointments which gave discretion to the Chairman have been included in the "for" total.

2. The total number of shares in issue is 278,485,071 of which 7,271,174 shares are held as Treasury shares. Therefore, the total number of voting rights in the Company is 271,213,897.

3. A "vote withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the proportion of the votes "for" and "against" a resolution.

4. All percentages are shown to two decimal places.

This information will also shortly be available to view on the Company's website at: www.vesuvius.com.

As there were no resolutions passed at the AGM other than resolutions concerning ordinary business, no copies of resolutions have been submitted to the National Storage Mechanism in accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2. 

Re-election of Hock Goh

The Board notes that resolution 6, the re-election of Hock Goh, was passed with the requisite majority of votes from shareholders, but acknowledges that there were a significant number of votes opposing his re-election.

The Board seeks to ensure that each Director has time to meet the requirements of their role. This is regularly evaluated, and the Board remains satisfied that Hock Goh, as with all other directors, has sufficient capacity to meet his commitments to Vesuvius plc. As set out in our AGM Notice, Hock Goh brings extensive experience of the global services industry to board discussions as well as a perspective on the Asian markets. The Board takes the views of the Company's shareholders seriously and will continue to engage with them to understand their concerns in respect of the above resolution.
