1.   The percentages voted 'For' and 'Against' are expressed as a proportion of the total votes cast, which does not include votes withheld since for legal purposes a vote withheld is not a vote cast.

2.   Any proxy appointments which gave discretion to the Chairman of the meeting have been included in the 'For' totals.

3.   As at 6:00 p.m. on 25 July 2022 (being the record time for the Annual General Meeting), the Company had 195,435,840 Ordinary Shares in issue and the total number of voting rights in respect of these Ordinary Shares was 195,435,840, each Ordinary Share carrying one vote.

In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2R, a copy of the Resolutions, other than those concerning ordinary business, will be submitted to the National Storage Mechanism, where they will shortly be available for inspection at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism. In addition, a copy of the Resolutions will also be filed with Companies House. The results of the Annual General Meeting held on 27 July 2022 will be available to view on the Company's website at www.delarue.com.

As outlined in the 2022 Annual Report, Maria da Cunha retired from the Board following the conclusion of this year's Annual General Meeting.  We would like to thank Maria for her contribution and expertise provided to De La Rue over the last seven years.  Margaret Rice-Jones will take on the role of Chair of the Remuneration Committee following Maria's retirement.
