Frits van Paasschen retired at the 2016 Barclays PLC Annual General Meeting and did not seek re-election. Mr van Paasschen therefore resigned from the Board at the conclusion of the meeting.

Shareholders are entitled to one vote per share. Votes withheld are not votes and, therefore, have not been counted in the calculation of the proportion of votes for and against a resolution.
