* Indicates a special resolution requiring a 75% majority of votes cast

** Excludes treasury shares

Notes:

1 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, the total votes validly cast or the calculation of the proportion of issued share capital voted.

2 As at the voting record date, Headlam had 85,639,209 ordinary shares in issue, of which 80,761,694 held voting rights.

   3   To calculate the proxy votes as a percentage of shares in issue, treasury shares were excluded. 

4 Adam Phillips joined the Board of Directors as Chief Financial Officer with effect from 20 March 2023. Due to the technical requirements of Headlam's Articles of Association, Adam was required to vacate his statutory director position at the conclusion of the 2023 Annual General Meeting. He was formally re-elected as a statutory director by the board of directors following the 2023 Annual General Meeting, and will be required to retire from office and apply for re-election at the 2024 Annual General Meeting. Adam does not hold any shares in Headlam, and there is no further information required to be disclosed pursuant to Listing Rule 9.6.13R.
