Shareholders are encouraged to raise any topics that they wish to discuss with the Company in advance of the Meeting. In addition, shareholders who are unable to physically attend and who wish to ask any questions at the AGM should do so in writing to the Company Secretary, Perpetual Park, Perpetual Park Drive, Henley-on-Thames, Oxfordshire, RG9 1HH or by email to [email protected].

Questions must be received by the Company Secretary no later than 9.30 a.m. on 14 October 2025.

Voting arrangements – Action to be taken

We value the views of all shareholders, regardless of the size of their shareholding, and, therefore, encourage all shareholders to vote on the resolutions to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting and, if their shares are not held directly, to arrange for their nominee to vote on their behalf.

We recommend that shareholders exercise their votes by means of registering them with the Company's registrar, MUFG Corporate Markets (the "Registrar"), ahead of the Meeting and appointing the Chair of the Meeting as their proxy with their voting instructions by one of the following means:

  • For shareholders holding their shares through investor platforms, by contacting their platform in order to register their votes. If their platform is one of those which does not offer the facility to vote via its website, they will need to contact the platform directly by phone or its messaging system giving their instructions to vote.
  • For shareholders on the main register (including those who hold their shares in certificated form), either (i) electronically via the Investor Centre app (a free app for smartphones and tablets provided by the Registrar) or web browser at https://uk.investorcentre.mpms.mufg.com/ and following the instructions or (ii) by completing and signing the enclosed Form of Proxy for use in relation to the AGM in accordance with the instructions printed on it and returning it by post, courier or hand.
  • For CREST members, by utilising the CREST electronic proxy appointment service.

Sue Inglis (Chair) Craig Cleland Mark Dampier Perpetual Park, Perpetual Park Drive,

For institutional shareholders, you may be able to appoint a proxy electronically via the Proxymity platform.

Shareholders on the main register, CREST members and institutional shareholders can find details and instructions regarding the appointment of a proxy in the "Administrative notes in connection with the Annual General Meeting" on pages 7 and 8 of this document.

In the case of shareholders on the main register, CREST members and institutional shareholders, their proxy votes must be received by the Registrar or Proximity as soon as possible and, in any event, no later than 9.30 a.m. on 17 October 2025. Shareholders holding their shares through investor platforms should be aware that the deadlines for voting through platforms may be earlier than the Company's proxy voting deadline.

It is recommended that shareholders exercise their votes by means of registering them with the Company's registrar ahead of the Meeting, online or by completing a paper proxy form, and appointing the Chair of the meeting as their proxy.

If you would like to vote on the resolutions to be proposed at the AGM and you hold your shares in certificated form, you may appoint a proxy electronically via the Investor Centre app or web browser at https://uk.investorcentre.mpms.mufg.com/ by following the instructions on that website or, if you hold your shares in CREST, you may appoint a proxy via the CREST system, or if you are an institutional investor you may also be able to appoint a proxy electronically via the Proxymity platform. Notice of your appointment of a proxy should reach the Company's registrar, MUFG Corporate Markets (the "Registrar"), by no later than 9.30 a.m. on 17 October 2025. If you hold your shares through a nominee service, please contact the nominee service provider regarding the process for appointing a proxy.

Further details and instructions regarding the appointment of a proxy are set out in the "Administrative notes in connection with the Annual General Meeting" on pages 7 and 8 of this document.

Your Board strongly encourages shareholders to vote electronically and to appoint the Chair of the Meeting as their proxy with their voting instructions.

Voting on a poll

Each of the resolutions to be considered at the AGM will be voted on by way of a poll. This will ensure that shareholders who have appointed proxies have their votes taken into account.

The results of the polls will be announced to the London Stock Exchange and published on the Company's website as soon as possible after the conclusion of the AGM.

Resolutions

Resolutions 1 to 11 will be proposed as ordinary resolutions. An ordinary resolution requires a simple majority of votes cast to be cast in favour of the resolution for it to be passed. Resolutions 12 to 15 will be proposed as special resolutions. A special resolution requires a majority of not less than 75% of the votes cast to be cast in favour of the resolution for it to be passed.

Directors: Registered Office: 22 September 2025

Ordinary resolutions

Resolution 1 – To receive and adopt the Annual Report and Audited Financial Statements

17750c Global Equity IGET NoM circular.qxp 19/09/2025 12:13 Page 3

The Directors are required to present the Annual Report and Audited Financial Statements, which incorporate the Directors' Report and Auditor's Report, to the Meeting. These are contained in the Company's Annual Report and Audited Financial Statements for the year ended 31 May 2025 (the "Annual Report"). The Annual Report and further information about the Company can be accessed via the Manager's website at www.invesco.com/uk/en/investment-trusts/invescoglobalequity-income-trust.html.

Resolution 2 – Directors' Remuneration Policy

It is a requirement for the Directors' Remuneration Policy to be approved by shareholders at least every three years. Your Board has taken the decision to submit the policy for approval annually. This vote is binding. The Directors' Remuneration Policy is set out on page 45 of the Annual Report.

Resolution 3 – Directors' Remuneration Report

It is mandatory for listed companies to put their Annual Statement and Report on Remuneration to an annual advisory shareholder vote. The Annual Statement and Report on Remuneration for the financial year ended 31 May 2025 are set out on pages 45 to 47 of the Annual Report. This is an advisory resolution and, therefore, is not binding.

Resolutions 4, 5, 6 and 7 – Election/re-election of Directors

As noted in my Chair's statement in the Annual Report, Craig Cleland intends to retire at the conclusion of the AGM and, therefore, is not standing for re-election.

New Directors are appointed by the Board, following recommendation by the Nomination Committee. Provided the timing of initial appointment is such that a resolution can be included in the Notice, new Directors are then subject to election by shareholders at the first Annual General Meeting following their appointment.

Directors are subject to election at the first AGM following their appointment by the Board. In accordance with the AIC Code of Corporate Governance, subject to any Directors not seeking to continue in office, all Directors will then offer themselves for re-election annually at the AGM. Your Board considers that this policy provides both for adequate continuity and encourages regular refreshment, which is conducive to fostering diversity of its constituents.

Brief biographical details of the Directors standing for election or re-election are set out on page 35 of the Annual Report and particular qualities that each Director seeking election or re-election brings to the Board, as required by the 2018 UK Corporate Governance Code, are set out below.

Resolution 4 is to re-elect Mark Dampier as a Director of the Company. Mark joined the Board from Invesco Income Growth Trust plc ("IIGT") and brings continuity of oversight for the shareholders that transferred from that company in the 2021 business combination. He also brings comprehensive experience from involvement in the investment and savings industry. This experience broadens and complements the other Directors in their oversight of the investment and marketing activities of the Company. As noted on page 38 of the Annual Report, your Board is aware of the tenure of Mark on the Board, who based on his original appointment date on the IIGT board, reached the ninth anniversary of his original appointment in February 2025. This

has been factored into the Company's plans to ensure the orderly succession of Board members and, as disclosed in my statement on page 8 of the Annual Report, Mark intends to retire from the Board by the 2026 AGM.

Resolution 5 is to re-elect Tim Woodhead as a Director of the Company. Tim also joined the Board from IIGT and brings continuity of oversight for the shareholders that transferred from that company in the 2021 business combination. Mr Woodhead brings very relevant experience from both the perspective of the Wealth Management sector and of the day to day involvement of the management of client portfolios. He has over 30 years of investment management experience.

Resolution 6 is to re-elect myself, Sue Inglis, as a Director of the Company. I joined the Board on 10 October 2024 and was appointed as Chair of the Company on 21 November 2024. I have extensive financial, legal and investment trust experience and am currently the senior independent director of Baillie Gifford US Growth Trust plc, CT Global Managed Portfolio Trust plc (where I also chair the audit committee) and Seraphim Space Investment Trust plc. I have experience of more than 30 years advising listed investment companies and financial institutions.

Resolution 7 is to elect Helen Galbraith as a Director of the Company. Helen joined the Board on 1 December 2024 and has extensive experience of the asset management industry and investor relations, gained over 20 years. Helen is currently a director (and chairs the audit committee) of CT UK High Income Trust PLC and Schroder UK Mid Cap Fund plc. Mrs Galbraith will succeed Mr Cleland as Chair of the Audit Committee at the conclusion of the AGM.

The performance of your Board and the individual Directors is evaluated annually. Following the 2025 evaluation, your Board concluded that each Director continued to be independent in character and judgement, their professional skills, experience and knowledge were a significant benefit to the Board and they had demonstrated their ability to commit the time required to fulfil their responsibilities. Your Board also concluded that it was operating effectively, and had a good balance of professional skills, experience and knowledge relevant to the Company's structure and strategy. Accordingly, the Board recommends that shareholders vote in favour of each of resolutions 4 to 7.

Resolutions 8 and 9 – Re-appointment and remuneration of auditor

At each meeting at which the Company's financial statements are presented to its shareholders, the Company is required to appoint an auditor to serve until the next such meeting. Your Board, on the recommendation of the Audit Committee, recommends the re-election of Grant Thornton UK LLP and this will be proposed to the AGM as Resolution 8. Resolution 9 authorises the Audit Committee to determine the auditor's remuneration.

Resolution 10 – Dividend policy

Resolution 10 is to approve the dividend policy, which is set out on page 26 of the Annual Report. The vote on this resolution is advisory and not binding. Shareholders normally only have the opportunity to vote on final dividends and, since all dividends are declared as interim dividends, which enables the fourth interim dividend payment to be made earlier than would be possible if that dividend was classed as a final dividend and subject to shareholder approval at the AGM, this resolution is being proposed to give shareholders the opportunity to vote on the policy applied.

Special business

Ordinary resolution

Resolution 11 – Authority to allot ordinary shares

17750c Global Equity IGET NoM circular.qxp 19/09/2025 12:13 Page 4

Resolution 11 is to renew the Directors' authority to allot shares. Your Directors are asking for authority to allot new ordinary shares up to an aggregate nominal value of £458,927, being two-thirds of the existing share capital (excluding shares held in treasury).

This will allow Directors to issue shares within the prescribed limits should any favourable opportunities arise to the advantage of shareholders. The powers authorised will not be exercised at a price below NAV so that the financial interests of existing shareholders are not diluted. This authority will expire at the AGM in 2026.

Special resolutions

Resolutions 12 & 13 – Authority to disapply pre-emption rights

At a General Meeting of the Company held on 14 August 2025 shareholders approved new authorities that gave the Company the power to issue shares (or sale shares held in treasury) on a non pre-emptive basis of up to 20 per cent. of its then issued ordinary shares (excluding shares held in treasury). These authorities remain valid until the AGM. In the period since the General Meeting the Company has sold 1,980,000 ordinary shares from treasury (equivalent to 2.96% of the shares in circulation on 14 August 2025) at an average premium of 1.94%, raising £7.20 million.

Your Board is now seeking approval to allow the Company to issue shares representing up to 20%. of its current issued share capital (excluding treasury shares) without rights of pre-emption. There are two resolutions being proposed, with each resolution being for up to 10 per cent. and, therefore, for an aggregate of up to 20 per cent. This approach follows best practice and allows any shareholder who may not wish to give approval to an aggregate limit higher than that recommended by corporate governance guidelines the ability to approve the first resolution for up to 10 per cent. and to also consider the second resolution separately for a further 10 per cent.

Resolution 12 is to put in place a new authority to disapply pre-emption rights. Your Directors are asking for the usual authority to issue ordinary shares for cash (or sell shares from treasury), either pursuant to a rights issue or otherwise, up to an aggregate nominal amount of £68,839 (10% of the issued share capital, excluding treasury shares) disapplying pre-emption rights.

Resolution 13 is to put in place a new authority to disapply pre-emption rights over an additional 10% of the issued share capital (excluding treasury shares).

These authorities will allow shares to be issued (or sold from treasury) to new shareholders without them having to be offered to existing shareholders first. Your Directors only intend to disapply pre-emption rights and issue shares (or sell shares from treasury) where those shares are issued at a premium to NAV. These authorities will expire at the AGM in 2026.

Growing the size of the Company through share issuance (or sales of treasury shares) should broaden its shareholder base, improve liquidity in the shares and lead to a lower ongoing charges ratio, as well as marginally enhancing the NAV per share.

Resolution 14 – Purchase of own shares

Resolution 14 is to renew the authority for the Company to purchase its own shares. Your Directors are seeking to renew the authority to buy back up to 14.99 per cent. of the shares in circulation, at the date of the AGM, subject to the restrictions referred to in the Notice of AGM. This authority will expire at the AGM in 2026.

Your Directors are proposing that shares bought back by the Company either be cancelled or, alternatively, be held as treasury shares with a view to their resale, if appropriate, or later cancellation. As noted above in the explanatory text to resolutions 12 and 13, resale of treasury shares will only take place on terms that are in the best interests of shareholders as a whole.

Resolution 15 – Notice of general meetings

Resolution 15 is to permit the Company to hold general meetings (other than AGMs) on 14 days notice, which is the minimum notice period permitted by the Companies Act 2006. The EU Shareholder Rights Directive increases the minimum notice period to 21 days unless two conditions are met. The first condition is that the company offers facilities for shareholders to vote by electronic means. The second condition is that there is an annual resolution of shareholders approving the reduction in the minimum notice period from 21 days to 14 days, hence this resolution being proposed. It is intended that this flexibility will be used only where your Board believes it is in the interests of shareholders as a whole.

Recommendation

Full text of the above resolutions are contained in the Notice of AGM.

Your Directors consider that all the resolutions to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting are in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole. Your Directors unanimously recommend that shareholders vote in favour of all the resolutions, as they intend to do in respect of their own beneficial holdings of shares.

Yours sincerely

SUE INGLIS

Chair Invesco Global Equity Income Trust plc 22 September 2025

Administrative notes in connection with the Annual General Meeting

A Form of Proxy accompanies this document.

17750c Global Equity IGET NoM circular.qxp 19/09/2025 12:13 Page 7

  1. A member entitled to attend and vote at the AGM is entitled to appoint one or more proxies to attend, speak and vote in their stead. Where more than one proxy is appointed, each proxy must be appointed to exercise the rights attached to a different share or shares. A proxy need not be a member of the Company. However, if you appoint the Chair of the AGM as your proxy, this will ensure that your votes are cast in accordance with your wishes. If any other person is appointed as your proxy, they may not be able to attend the Meeting to vote on your behalf.

In order to be valid an appointment of proxy must be returned by one of the following methods:

  • electronically via the Investor Centre app or web browser at https://uk.investmentcentre.mpms.mufg.com/ (see note 3);
  • via Proxymity (see note 4); or
  • in hard copy form by post, by courier or by hand to the Company's registrar, MUFG Corporate Markets (formerly known as Link Group), PXS1, Central Square, 29 Wellington Street, Leeds, LS1 4DL; or
  • in the case of CREST members, by utilising the CREST electronic proxy appointment service (see note 2)

and in each case to be received by the Company not less than 48 hours before the time of the AGM (excluding weekends and bank holidays).

The appointment of a proxy (whether by completion of a Form of Proxy or other instrument appointing a proxy or any CREST proxy instruction or appointment of a proxy via Proxymity) does not prevent a member from attending and voting at the AGM. Unless otherwise indicated on the Form of Proxy, CREST, Proxymity or any other electronic voting instruction, the proxy will vote as they think fit or, at their discretion, withhold from voting.

  1. CREST members who wish to appoint a proxy or proxies by utilising the CREST electronic proxy appointment service may do so by utilising the procedures described in the CREST Manual. CREST Personal Members or other CREST sponsored members, and those CREST members who have appointed (a) voting service provider(s) should refer to their CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s) who will be able to take the appropriate action on their behalf. In order for a proxy appointment made by means of CREST to be valid, the appropriate CREST message (a "CREST Proxy Instruction") must be properly authenticated in accordance with CRESTCo's specifications and must contain the information required for such instructions as described in the CREST Manual. The message, regardless of whether it relates to the appointment of a proxy or to an amendment to the instruction given to a previously appointed proxy, must, in order to be valid, be transmitted so as to be received by the issuer's agent (ID RA10) by the latest time for receipt of proxy appointments specified in this document. For this purpose, the time of receipt will be taken to be the time (as determined by the time stamp applied to the message by the CREST Applications Host) from which the issuer's agent is able to retrieve the message by enquiry to CREST in the manner prescribed by CREST. 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. CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service provider(s) should note that CRESTCo does not make available special procedures in CREST for any particular messages. Normal system timings and

limitations will therefore apply in relation to the input of CREST Proxy Instructions. It is the responsibility of the CREST member concerned to take or, if the CREST member is a CREST personal member or sponsored member or has appointed a voting service provider(s), to procure that their CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s) take(s) such action as shall be necessary to ensure that a message is transmitted by means of the CREST system by any particular time. In this connection CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers are referred, in particular, to those sections of the CREST Manual concerning practical limitations of the CREST system and timings.

    1. If you are an institutional investor you may be able to appoint a proxy electronically via the Proxymity platform, a process which has been agreed by the Company and approved by the Registrar. For further information regarding Proxymity, please go to www.proxymity.io.

Before you can appoint a proxy via this process you will need to have agreed to Proxymity's associated terms and conditions. It is important that you read these carefully as you will be bound by them and they will govern the electronic appointment of your proxy. An electronic proxy appointment via the Proxymity platform may be revoked completely by sending an authenticated message via the platform instructing the removal of your proxy vote.
    1. A person entered on the Register of Members at close of business on 17 October 2025 (a "member") is entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting pursuant to Regulation 41 of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001. Any changes to the Register of Members after such time and date shall be disregarded in determining the rights of any person to attend and/or vote at the Meeting. If the Meeting is adjourned, entitlement to attend and vote at the adjourned meeting, and the number of votes which may be cast thereat, will be determined by reference to the Company's Register of Members 48 hours before the time fixed for the adjourned meeting (excluding weekends and bank holidays).

The Register of Directors' interests; the schedule of matters reserved for the Board; the terms of reference of the Audit, Management Engagement, Marketing and Nomination Committees; and the letters of appointment for Directors will be provided for inspection upon request to the Company Secretary.
    1. The Articles of Association will be provided for inspection upon request to the Company Secretary.
    1. Any corporation which is a shareholder can appoint one or more corporate representatives who may exercise on its behalf all of its powers as a shareholder provided that they do not do so in relation to the same shares.
    1. Any person to whom this Notice is sent who is a person nominated under section 146 of the Companies Act 2006 to enjoy information rights (a "Nominated Person") may have a right, under an agreement between them and the shareholder by whom they were nominated, to be appointed (or to have someone else appointed) as a proxy for the Meeting. If a Nominated Person has no such proxy appointment right or does not wish to exercise it, they may have a right, under such an agreement, to give instructions to the shareholder as to the exercise of voting rights. The statement of the above rights of the shareholders in relation to the appointment of proxies in paragraph 1 above does not apply to Nominated Persons. Those rights can only be exercised by shareholders of the Company.
    1. Any member attending the AGM has the right to ask questions. The Company must cause to be answered any such question relating to the business being dealt with at the AGM but no such answer need be given if: (a) to do so would interfere unduly with the preparation for the AGM or involve the disclosure of confidential information; (b) the answer has already been given on a website in the form of an answer to a question; or (c) it is undesirable in the interests of the Company or the good order of the AGM that the question be answered.
    1. You may not use any electronic address (within the meaning of section 333(4) of the Companies Act 2006) provided in this Notice (or in any related documents including the Form of Proxy) to communicate with the Company for any purposes other than those expressly stated.
    1. As at 18 September 2025, being the last practicable day prior to the publication of this Notice, the Company's issued share capital consisted of 68,839,182 ordinary shares (excluding shares held in treasury). Therefore, the total number of voting rights in the Company as at 18 September were 68,839,182 votes.
    1. To the extent that any voting takes place on a show of hands, every member who is present in person or by proxy has a right to one vote (except that if a proxy's instructions include votes for and against (in respect of different shares) the proxy has one vote for and one vote against on a show of hands). However, it is anticipated that the Chair of the Meeting will demand that the voting on all resolutions put to the AGM will be by poll. On a poll the poll will be decided on the basis of one vote per share.

The Company may not require the members requesting any such website publication to pay its expenses in complying with sections 527 or 528 of the Act.
