As at the date of the AGM, the number of ordinary shares in issue, and therefore the total number of voting rights was 419,089,591.
* A 'vote withheld' is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the proportion of votes 'for' or 'against' a resolution. All percentages are calculated to two decimal places.
All resolutions were passed at the Company's AGM on 17 May 2018 with the requisite majority of votes. However, in respect of Resolution 16 ("Rule 9 Waiver"), we acknowledge that a number of our shareholders did not support the resolution.
The Rule 9 Waiver resolution related to shareholder approval of a waiver obtained from the Takeover Panel with respect to the obligation that could arise on the Company's Chairman, Sir Peter Wood, and any person acting in concert with him, for so long as they held shares in the Company carrying 30 per cent. or more of the voting rights in the Company, to make a general offer for the entire issued share capital of the Company as a result of the Company conducting a share buyback pursuant to shareholder approval. It is normal practice to include a Rule 9 Waiver resolution in these circumstances. Sir Peter Wood and any concert party of Sir Peter Wood were precluded from voting on Resolution 16.
The Company's ability to choose the best capital returns policy for shareholders and maximise shareholder value would be limited without the approval of this resolution, as without the Waiver in place, if the Company performed the exercise of the buyback authority in Resolution 20, the Company would have to obtain a waiver at that stage, including calling a General Meeting. By having the Waiver approved now, it simply keeps the options open for the Company.
The Board respects and values the views of shareholders and will assess the feedback it has received to inform future consultations.
In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2, copies of all the resolutions passed, other than resolutions concerning ordinary business, will be submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and be available for inspection at: http://www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/NSM.
