A vote withheld is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of votes validly cast for or against a resolution.
The Board noes that resolution 10 in respect of the re-election of independent Non-Executive Director, Mr Deepak Parekh, was passed with the requisite majority of all shareholders (including shareholders independent of the controlling shareholder interests), but acknowledges that there were a significant number of votes from those independent shareholders opposing Mr Parekh's re-appointment . The Annual Report sets out the steps which the Board took to assess the effectiveness of the Board including the performance and independence of each of the Non-Executive Directors.
Mr Parekh brings a wealth of strategic knowledge and experience from a range of industries and is a huge benefit to the Board. Furthermore, Mr Parekh's other appointments have not compromised his commitment to the Board as he has attended the majority of Board and Board Committee meetings including those called at short notice.
However, the Board takes the views of the Company's shareholders seriously. Since the publication of the voting recommendations by shareholder groups, the Company has held discussions with a number of large independent shareholders to understand their concerns and explain the Company's perspective. The Board will carefully consider the feedback received and determine what action it needs to take to address this matter going forward.
In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2 of the UK Listing Authority, Vedanta Resources plc has submitted copies of the special resolutions passed at its Annual General Meeting to the National Storage Mechanism which will shortly be available for inspection at http:// www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/NSM.
