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
