Notes:

 
 1.   Any proxy appointments giving discretion to the Chair 
       of the AGM have been included in the "For" total. 
 2.   A vote "Withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted 
       in the calculation of the votes "For" or "Against" a resolution. 
 3.   The Company's total ordinary shares in issue (total voting 
       rights) as at 22 July 2020 was 737 243 810 ordinary shares 
       of 10 pence each. Ordinary shareholders are entitled to 
       one vote per ordinary share held. In the table showing 
       votes of shareholders on the election and re-election 
       of independent non-executive directors, the percentage 
       of issued capital voted has been calculated excluding 
       the shares of the controlling shareholder, Remgro Limited. 
 4.   As the Company has a controlling shareholder, Remgro Limited, 
       as defined in the Financial Conduct Authority's Listing 
       Rules, each resolution to elect an independent non-executive 
       director (Resolutions 4, 5, 8, 9, 11, 13 and 14) have 
       under Listing Rule 9.2.2E been approved by a majority 
       of the votes cast by: 
       (a) the shareholders of the Company as a whole; and 
       (b) the independent shareholders of the Company, that 
       is, all the shareholders entitled to vote on each resolution, 
       excluding the controlling shareholder. 
 

Statement regarding voting results

The Board notes that while Resolution 18 was passed with a majority of 79.65%, a number of our shareholders opposed that resolution. The Board notes that the voting outcome reflects the differing market practice between the United Kingdom ("UK") and South Africa, where shareholders in the latter jurisdiction usually approve more restricted levels of authority to issue shares and prefer to vote on the proposed allotments of shares on a case-by-case basis. The Company has consulted regularly with its larger international shareholders on this matter. Many operate under policies that do not permit the UK standard level of authority to be supported, although a number do understand the Company's position. As Mediclinic is a UK premium-listed company, the Board considers it appropriate to seek authorities in line with the UK's Investment Association's Share Capital Management Guidelines to: (a) allow the Company to respond to market developments; and (b) enable allotments to take place to finance business opportunities as they arise. The views of all shareholders are important to Mediclinic and the Board will continue to engage with international shareholders on this topic and will publish an update on shareholder engagement within six months of the AGM, as required by the UK Corporate Governance Code. However, as the voting outcome reflects the difficulty in balancing the expectations of different markets, it is likely that there will continue to be significant votes against this resolution.

A copy of the special resolutions and certain ordinary resolutions affecting the Company's constitution which were passed at the meeting will shortly be submitted to the National Storage Mechanism in accordance with paragraph 9.6.2 of the Listing Rules. In addition, the Company will submit to the National Storage Mechanism a copy of its Articles of Association dated 22 July 2020 in accordance with paragraph 9.2.6E of the Listing Rules. These documents will be available for inspection at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism .
