At the Headlam Group plc (the ‘Company’) Annual General Meeting (the ‘Meeting’) held on Thursday 22 May 2025 at Gorsey Lane, Coleshill, Birmingham, B46 1JU the following resolutions, (12, 13,14 and 15 being resolutions other than those concerning ordinary business), were passed. We have also included ordinary resolution 11 because it is referred to within the other special resolutions.
Ordinary Resolution 11
(a) up to an aggregate nominal amount of £605,841; and
(b) comprising equity securities (as defined in section 560 of the Act) up to an aggregate nominal amount of £605,841 in connection with a fully pre-emptive offer:
(i) to holders of ordinary shares in proportion (as nearly as may be practicable) to their respective holdings; and
(ii) to holders of other equity securities as required by the rights of those securities or as the Directors otherwise consider necessary,
but subject to such exclusions or other arrangements as the Directors may deem necessary or expedient in relation to treasury shares, fractional entitlements, record dates, legal, regulatory or practical problems in or under the laws of any territory or the requirements of any regulatory body or stock exchange.
The authorities conferred on the Directors under paragraphs (a) and (b) shall, unless renewed, varied or revoked by the Company, expire at the close of business on 21 August 2026 or, if earlier, at the end of the 2026 Annual General Meeting save that the Company may, before such expiry, make offers or agreements which would or might require shares to be allotted or rights to subscribe for or convert securities into shares to be granted and the Directors may allot shares or grant rights to subscribe for or convert securities into shares in pursuance of such offer or agreement notwithstanding that the authority conferred by this resolution has expired.
This resolution revokes and replaces all unexercised authorities previously granted to the Directors to allot shares or grant rights to subscribe for or convert securities into shares but without prejudice to any allotment of shares or grant of rights already made, offered or agreed to be made pursuant to such authorities.

authority had not expired.
561 of the Act did not apply to any such allotment or sale, such authority to be:
(a) limited to the allotment of equity securities or sale of treasury shares up to a nominal amount of £403,894, such authority to be used only for the purposes of financing (or refinancing if the authority is to be used within 12 months after the original transaction) a transaction which the Board of Directors of the Company determines to be either an acquisition or a specified capital investment of a kind contemplated by the Statement of Principles on Disapplying Pre-Emption Rights most recently published by the Pre-Emption Group prior to the date of this notice; and
(b) limited to the allotment of equity securities or sale of treasury shares (otherwise than under resolution 12(a) in this Notice) up to a nominal amount equal to 20% of any allotment of equity securities or sale of treasury shares from time to time under resolution 13(a) above, such authority to be used only for the purposes of making a follow-on offer which the Directors determine to be of a kind contemplated by paragraph 3 of Section 2B of the Statement of Principles on Disapplying Pre-Emption Rights most recently published by the Pre-Emption Group prior to the date of this notice, such authority to expire at the end of the 2026 Annual General Meeting (or, if earlier, at the close of business on 21 August 2026), but in each case, prior to its expiry the Company may make offers, and enter into agreements, which would, or might, require equity securities to be allotted (and treasury shares to be sold) after the authority expires and the Board may allot equity securities (and sell treasury shares) under any such offer or agreement as if the authority had not expired.

(ii) an amount equal to the higher of the price of the last independent trade of an ordinary share and the highest current independent bid for an ordinary share on the trading venue where the market purchase by the Company is carried out; and
(d) the authority conferred by this resolution shall expire at the conclusion of the 2026 Annual General Meeting or, if earlier, at the close of business on 21 August 2026 (except in relation to the purchase of shares, the contract for which was made before the expiry of this authority and which might be concluded wholly or partly after such expiry), and any ordinary shares purchased pursuant to this authority may either be held as treasury shares or cancelled by the Company, depending on which course of action is considered by the Directors to be in the best interests of shareholders at the time.
