·      Total voting rights at 8 July 2021:     744,526,324 Ordinary shares of 10 2/3 p each

As a result of the continuation of Covid-19 restrictions, for the first time this year we chose to hold our AGM as a hybrid meeting.  Shareholders were encouraged to take advantage of this and join the meeting virtually.  The Company held the hybrid Annual General Meeting at the Company's registered office with only the minimum number of shareholders present and with those joining virtually forming a quorum as required under the Company's articles of association.  All valid proxy votes and voting instructions (whether submitted electronically or in hard copy form) were included in the poll taken at the meeting.

In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2, copies of the resolutions passed as special business will shortly be available for inspection on the National Storage Mechanism at https://www.fca.org.uk/markets/primary-markets/regulatory-disclosures/national-storage-mechanism

A copy of the voting results shown above is also available on the Company's website at https://landsec.com/investors/shareholders-equity-investors/annual-general-meeting
