a) Any proxy appointments which give discretion to the Chairman have been included in the "for" total.

b) At close of business on 25 April 2018 there were 241,179,469 relevant shares in issue (excluding treasury shares).

The Board is delighted that more than 90% of our investors voted in favour of our new remuneration policy, which reflects the active role they played in the consultation and in setting the proposals. Based on the insights from our engagement exercise, the Board believes that the small minority who did not feel able to support the policy on this occasion reflects a continued preference for conventional LTI awards among some investors. We will continue to actively engage with these investors to discuss the merits of our new policy and its appropriateness for Weir.

A copy of the resolutions passed concerning special business has been submitted and will shortly be available for inspection at the National Storage Mechanism which is located at https://www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/NSM.
