Dear fellow shareholder,

2014 Annual Report and notice of Annual General Meeting (AGM) 2015

This letter is to notify you that the 2014 Annual Report and the 2015 notice of AGM for Rentokil Initial plc ('the Company') is now available on our website at www.rentokil-initial.com

The AGM will be held in the Ascot Suite at the Hilton Hotel, Gatwick Airport, South Terminal, Crawley, West Sussex, RH6 0LL on Wednesday 13 May 2015 at 12 noon. A location map for the venue is on the last page of the notice of meeting and on the back of this proxy form. An attendance card is also attached which you should bring with you if you attend the meeting.

Biographical details of the Directors seeking re-election are set out in the notes on the resolutions which follow the notice of meeting. Julie Southern was appointed by the Board on 21 July 2014 and will submit herself for appointment by shareholders to the Board for the first time.

The Board believes that all of the resolutions in the notice of meeting are in the best interests of the Company and of shareholders as a whole and recommends you to vote in favour of the resolutions, as all members of the Board intend to do in respect of their own shareholdings.

I hope that you will be able to attend the AGM and raise any questions you may have on the resolutions. If you would like to vote but cannot come to the AGM, please complete the proxy form and return it to our registrars by no later than 12 noon on Monday 11 May 2015. Information about how to appoint a proxy electronically is given in note 4(b) on page 7 of the notice of meeting.

All resolutions will be put to a poll rather than a show of hands. This reflects best practice and will ensure that shareholders who are not able to attend the AGM, but who have appointed proxies, have their votes fully taken into account. Shareholders who attend the AGM will have the opportunity to ask questions and form a view on any points raised before voting on each resolution. The poll results will be announced on the day after the AGM.

Yours faithfully,

John McAdam Chairman 2 April 2015

You may submit your proxy electronically using the Capita Share Portal service at www.capitashareportal.com. If not already registered for the share portal, you will need your Investor Code shown below.

  • Notes 1. The 'Vote Withheld' option is to enable you to abstain on any particular resolution. A 'Vote Withheld' is not a vote in law and will not be counted in the calculation of votes 'For' and 'Against' a resolution.
    1. This proxy form is for use in respect of the shareholder account specified and should not be amended or submitted in respect of a different account.
    1. Only holders of ordinary shares or their duly appointed representatives are entitled to attend, speak and vote at the meeting. You can appoint the Chairman of the meeting or another person as your proxy to exercise all or any of your rights to attend speak and vote on your behalf. Please insert the full name of your appointed proxy in the space provided if you wish to appoint someone other than the Chairman of the meeting. If you wish your proxy to make comments on your behalf you will need to appoint someone other than the Chairman and give them your relevant instructions directly. A proxy need not be a member of the Company. Unless otherwise indicated the proxy will vote as he or she thinks fit or, at his or her discretion, including in respect of any other resolution properly put to the meeting. If the proxy is being appointed in relation to less than your full voting entitlement, please enter under the proxy holder's name the number of shares in relation to which they are authorised to act as your proxy. If left blank your proxy will be deemed to be authorised in respect of your full voting entitlement (or in the case of a corporate shareholder, the full voting entitlement for each relevant designated account).
    1. To appoint more than one proxy, either photocopy the Form of Proxy or obtain additional proxy forms by contacting Capita (Tel: 0871 664 0300 – calls cost 10p per minute plus network extras.

Please indicate the proxy holder's name and the number of shares in relation to which you authorise them to act as your proxy (which, in aggregate, should not exceed the number of shares held by you). Please also indicate by marking the box on the Proxy Form if the proxy instruction is one of multiple instructions being given.

    1. A corporation may appoint more than one corporate representative. A corporation's proxy form must be executed under either its common seal or the hand of a duly authorised officer or attorney (stating the officer's capacity).
    1. In the case of joint shareholders the signature of any shareholder will suffice, but the names of all joint holders should be shown. The vote of the senior holder who tenders the vote, in person or by proxy, shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint members. For this purpose seniority is determined by the order in which names stand on the register of members.
    1. The Proxy Form must be signed by the shareholder or any person duly authorised by the shareholder or if the shareholder is a corporation; be signed by a duly authorised person or under its common seal, or any other manner authorised by its constitution.

    1. Shares held in uncertified form (i.e. in CREST) may be voted through the CREST Proxy Voting Service in accordance with the procedures set out in the CREST manual. The company may treat as invalid a CREST proxy instruction in the circumstances set out in Regulation 35 (5)(a) of the Uncertificated Securities regulations 2001.
    1. Neither the appointment of a proxy nor the submission of a CREST voting instruction will preclude a registered shareholder from attending or voting in person.
    1. To be valid the Proxy Form must be signed and received at Capita Registrars not later than 48 hours before the time set for the meeting.
