* based on total issued share capital (the "ISC") (excluding
325,273,407 ordinary shares held in treasury) as at 12.01am (London
time) on Thursday 11 April 2019.
2. Board & Committee Changes
Lord Evans of Weardale retired from the Board at the conclusion
of the AGM. For the purposes of section 430(2B) of the Companies
Act 2006, he will receive his pro-rata entitlement to non-executive
director fees for the month of April 2019 and is not entitled to
any payments for loss of office.
As a consequence of Lord Evans' retirement from the Board,
Jackson Tai has been appointed as the Chair, and Kathleen Casey has
been appointed as a member, of the Financial System Vulnerabilities
Committee with effect from the conclusion of the AGM.
3. Other
- Computershare Investor Services PLC, the Company's Share
Registrar, acted as scrutineer of the poll on all resolutions.
- Copies of the resolutions passed at the AGM (other than
resolutions concerning ordinary business) have been submitted to
the UK Listing Authority, and will shortly be available for
inspection at the UK Listing Authority's National Storage Mechanism
which is located at http://www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/NSM.
- As at 12.01am (London time) on Thursday 11 April 2019, the
total number of issued ordinary shares of US$0.50 each entitling
the holders to attend and vote on all the resolutions at the AGM
was 20,235,585,854, which excludes 325,273,407 ordinary shares held
in treasury. A 'vote withheld' is not a vote in law and is
therefore not counted in the calculation of the proportion of the
votes 'for' and 'against' a resolution.
- In accordance with Rule 13.40 of the Hong Kong Listing Rules
there were no shares entitling the holder to attend and abstain
from voting in favour of any of the resolutions. No shareholder was
required under the Hong Kong Listing Rules to abstain from
voting.
As at the time of this announcement, the following are Directors
of the Company: Mark Tucker(*) , John Flint, Kathleen Casey , Laura
Cha , Henri de Castries , Irene Lee , José Meade , Heidi Miller ,
Marc Moses, David Nish , Ewen Stevenson, Jonathan Symonds , Jackson
Tai and Pauline van der Meer Mohr .
