NOTES:
(a) The "For" vote includes those giving the Chairman
discretion.
(b) A vote "Withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted in
the calculation of the votes "For" or "Against" the resolution.
(c) Passed as a special resolution.
(d) Passed both as an ordinary resolution by a majority of all
shareholders and by a majority of the independent shareholders
voting on the resolution, in accordance with LR 9.2.2ER.
Votes "For" and "Against" are expressed as a percentage of votes
received. Voting was conducted by a poll.
The Board notes the level of votes against resolutions 7, 10 and
13 concerning individuals who represent the Company's controlling
shareholder (as defined in the Listing Rules) (the "controlling
shareholder") and resolution 8 concerning the Chairman. The UK
Corporate Governance Code (the "Code") contains best practice
recommendations in relation to corporate governance yet
acknowledges that, in individual cases, these will not all
necessarily be appropriate for particular companies. Accordingly,
the Code specifically recognises the concept of "Comply or Explain"
in relation to divergences from the Code and the Company has
explained the circumstances of these appointments in detail in its
2020 Annual Report.
The number of shares in issue at 6.30p.m. on 22 March 2021 was
596,198,205, of which 257,364,510 were held by shareholders other
than the controlling shareholder.
The full text of the resolutions can be found in the Notice of
Annual General Meeting, which is available for inspection at the
National Storage Mechanism
https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism and also on
the Company's website at www.mbplc.com.
