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 special resolutions.
(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 of Directors notes the level of votes against
resolution 8 concerning the Chairman and resolution 10 concerning
an individual who represents the Company's controlling shareholder
(as defined in the Listing Rules). 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 2023 Annual Report.
The number of shares in issue at 6.30p.m. on 21 January 2024 was
597,727,235, of which 258,893,540 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 .
These results will shortly be available on the Company's website
at www.mbplc.com and in accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2, copies
of the resolutions that were passed at the meeting and that do not
constitute ordinary business at an annual general meeting will be
submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be
available for inspection at data.fca.org.uk
