If you have sold or otherwise transferred your Rentokil Initial plc shares please pass this Notice of AGM together with the accompanying documents to the purchaser or transferee, or to the person who arranged the sale or transfer so they can pass these documents to whoever now holds the shares.
I have pleasure in sending you the notice of the AGM of Rentokil Initial plc ('theCompany') which will be held in the Ascot Suite at The Hilton, Gatwick Airport, South Terminal, Crawley, West Sussex RH6 0LL on Wednesday 13May 2015 at 12 noon. A location map is provided on the back page of this notice of meeting and on the form of proxy. An attendance card is also attached which you should bring with you if you attend the meeting. Explanatory notes on all the resolutions accompany this notice of meeting.
Biographical details of the Directors seeking re-election or re-appointment are set out in the notes to the resolutions which follow the notice of meeting. We were pleased to announce the appointment of Julie Southern as a Director to the Board on 21 July 2014 and she will submit herself for appointment by shareholders to the Board for the first time.
The Board believes that all of the proposed resolutions set out in the following notice of meeting are in the best interests of the Company and the shareholders as a whole and recommends you to vote in favour of the resolutions to be put to the meeting, as members of the Board intend to do in respect of their own beneficial shareholdings.

Information about how to appoint a proxy electronically is given in note 4(b) on page 7 of this document.
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 meeting,
but who have appointed proxies, have their votes fully taken into account. Shareholders who attend the meeting will still 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 following the meeting.

The Directors must present the report of the Directors and the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2014 to shareholders at the AGM. The report of the Directors, the accounts, and the report of the Company's auditor on the accounts and on those parts of the Directors' Remuneration Report that are capable of being audited are contained within the Annual Report and Accounts.
The Large and Medium-sized Companies and Groups (Accounts and Reports) (Amendment) Regulations 2013, which came into force in October 2013, required the Directors' Remuneration Policy report ("the Policy report") to be approved by shareholders at general meeting as well as the Directors' Annual Remuneration Report. The Policy report was approved at AGM in May 2014 and continues to apply. As no changes are planned to the Company's existing remuneration policy in 2015, it will not be subject to a shareholder vote at this May 2015 AGM. The Company is required to seek shareholder approval for its Policy report at least every three financial years. All payments by the Company to Directors and former Directors must be made in accordance with the Directors' Remuneration Policy (unless a payment is separately approved by shareholder resolution). The Directors' Annual Remuneration Report (resolution 2) for year ended 31 December 2014 contains:
The Directors' Annual Remuneration Report will, as in past years, be put to an annual advisory shareholder vote by ordinary resolution (resolution 2). The Directors' Annual Remuneration Report which may be found on pages 68 to 78 of the Annual report and accounts gives details of your Directors' remuneration for the year ended 31 December 2014 and sets out the Company's implementation of its policy on Directors' remuneration. Resolution 2 is an advisory resolution in that payments made or promised to Directors will not have to be
repaid, reduced or withheld in the event that the resolution is not passed.
The Company's auditor, KPMG LLP, has audited those parts of the Directors' Annual Remuneration Report required to be audited and their report may be found on pages 79 to 80 of the annual report and accounts.
The Board considers that appropriate executive remuneration plays a vital part in helping to achieve the Company's overall objectives and accordingly, in compliance with the Companies Act 2006 and the Directors' Remuneration Report Regulations, shareholders will be invited to approve the various elements of the Directors' Annual Remuneration Report.
Subject to the declaration of the final dividend at the meeting, the dividend will be paid on 20 May 2015 to shareholders on the register at the close of business on 17 April 2015.
Resolutions 4 to 11 (inclusive) propose the re-election or re-appointment (as applicable) of each of the Directors of the Company in accordance with best practice as set out in the UK Corporate Governance Code 2012. The appointment, re-elections or re-appointment of Directors will take effect at the conclusion of the AGM. The Board is content that each Non-executive Director proposed for appointment, re-election or re-appointment is independent in character and there are no relationships or circumstances likely to affect their character or judgement.
All of the Directors seeking re-election or re-appointment have wide business knowledge and bring valuable skills and experience to the Board. Following the annual evaluation exercise conducted during the year, the Chairman considers that each of the Directors proposed for appointment, re-election or re-appointment continues to make an effective and valuable contribution and demonstrate commitment to the role. Separate resolutions will be proposed for each of these appointments, re-elections or re-appointments. Biographies of each of the Directors' seeking re-election or re-appointment can be found in the 2014 Annual Report on pages 40 to 41 and are repeated below.

The auditor of a company must be reappointed at each general meeting at which accounts are laid to hold office until the conclusion of the next Company general meeting at which the accounts are laid.
Resolution 12 proposes the appointment of KPMG LLP as auditor until the conclusion of the next general meeting of the Company at which the accounts are laid.
This resolution gives authority to the Directors, in accordance with standard practice, to determine the auditor's remuneration.
This resolution is required to reflect the Shareholder Rights Regulations which had the effect of implementing the Shareholder Rights Directive and increasing the notice period for general meetings of the Company under the Companies Act 2006 to 21 days unless shareholders approve a shorter notice period, which cannot, however, be less than 14 clear days' notice (other than an AGM which will continue to be held on 21 clear days' notice). Before the Shareholder Rights Regulations came into force in 2009, the Company was able to call general meetings (other than an AGM) on 14 clear days' notice and would like to preserve this ability to do so in future. To do this, shareholders must have approved the calling of meetings on 14 clear days' notice. Resolution 14 seeks such approval.
The approval will be effective until the Company's next AGM in 2016, when it is intended that a similar resolution will be proposed. The Company will also need to meet the requirements for electronic voting under the Shareholder Rights Directive before it can call a general meeting on 14 clear days' notice. It is intended that the shorter notice period would not be used as a matter of routine for such meetings but only where the flexibility is merited by the business of the meeting and is thought to be in the interests of shareholders as a whole.
The Company's Directors may only allot shares or grant rights to subscribe for, or convert any security into, shares if authorised to do so by shareholders. The authority conferred on the Directors at last year's AGM under section 551 of the Companies Act 2006 to allot shares expires on the date of the forthcoming AGM.
Accordingly, this resolution 15 seeks to renew the existing authority under s.551 of the Companies Act 2006 which would otherwise expire at the AGM in the case of paragraph (a) to give the Board authority to allot the Company's unissued shares up to a maximum nominal amount of £6,050,423 and, in the case of paragraph (b), to give the Board authority to allot ordinary shares (including the shares referred to in paragraph (a)) up to a nominal amount of £12,100,845 in connection with a pre-emptive offer to existing shareholders by way of a rights issue (with exclusions to deal with fractional entitlements to shares and overseas shareholders to whom the rights issue cannot be made due to legal and practical problems). The amount of £6,050,423 represents approximately 33.3 per cent.of the Company's issued ordinary share capital (excluding treasury shares) as at 2 April 2015, being the last practicable date prior to publication of this notice. The amount of £12,100,845 represents approximately 66.6 per cent.of the Company's issued ordinary share capital (excluding treasury shares) as at 2 April 2015, being the last practicable date prior to publication of this notice. This renewed authority will remain in force until the AGM to be held in 2016 (or, if earlier, 15 months from the date of this resolution). The Board has continued to seek annual renewal of this authority in accordance with best practice as set out in the latest institutional guidelines published by the Investment Management Association (formerly the ABI). The Company holds 5,889,232 treasury shares as at 2 April 2015, being the last practicable date prior to publication of this notice. This amount represents 0.32 per cent. of the Company's issued ordinary share capital (calculated excluding treasury shares) as at that date.
The Board has no present intention to exercise this authority. However, renewal of this authority will ensure that the Board has flexibility in managing the Company's capital resources so that the Board can act in the best interests of shareholders generally. If the Board takes advantage of the additional authority to issue shares representing more than one-third of the Company's issued share capital or for a rights issue where the monetary proceeds exceed one-third of the Company's pre-issue market capitalisation, all members of the Board wishing to remain in office will stand for re-election at the next annual general meeting following the decision to make the relevant share issue.
Under s.561(1) of the Companies Act 2006, if the Directors wish to allot ordinary shares, or grant rights to subscribe for, or convert securities into ordinary shares, or sell treasury shares for cash (other than pursuant to an employee share scheme) they must in the first instance offer them to existing shareholders in proportion to their holdings. There may be occasions, however, when the Directors need the flexibility to finance business opportunities by the issue of shares without a pre-emptive offer to existing shareholders. This cannot be done under the Companies Act 2006 unless the shareholders have first waived their preemption rights. Resolution 16 seeks to renew the authority given to the board which would otherwise expire at the AGM, to allot equity securities for cash on a non-pre-emptive basis (a) pursuant to a rights issue, or (b) up to an aggregate nominal amount of £908,472 (excluding treasury shares) (which includes the sale on a non-pre-emptive basis of any shares held in treasury) and which represents less than 5 per cent. of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company as at 2 April 2015 being the latest practicable date prior to publication of this notice.
This resolution seeks a disapplication of the pre-emption rights on a rights issue so as to allow the Directors to make exclusions or such other arrangements as may be appropriate to resolve legal or practical problems which, for example, might arise with overseas shareholders. This renewed authority will remain in force until the AGM to be held in 2016 (or, if earlier 15 months from the date of this resolution).
The Board has continued to seek annual renewal of this authority in accordance with best practice. In accordance with the guidelines issued by the Pre-emption Group (PEG), the Board confirms its intention that no more than 7.5 per cent. of the issued share capital (excluding treasury shares) will be issued for cash on a non-pre-emptive basis during any rolling three-year period.
The Directors have no present intention of exercising this authority. Renewal of this authority will ensure that the Board has flexibility in managing the Company's capital resources so that the Board can act in the best interests of shareholders generally.
Resolution 17 gives the Company authority to buy back its own ordinary shares in the market as permitted by the Companies Act 2006. This renews the authority granted at last year's AGM which expires on the date of the AGM. The authority limits the number of shares that could be purchased to a maximum of 181,691,373 (representing 10 per cent. of the issued share capital of the Company (excluding treasury shares) as at 2 April 2015 being the last practicable date prior to publication of this notice and sets minimum and maximum prices. This authority will expire at the conclusion of the AGM of the Company in 2016 (or, if earlier, 15 months from the date of this resolution).
The Directors have no present intention of exercising the authority to purchase the Company's ordinary shares but will keep the matter under review, taking into account the cash reserves of the Company, the Company's share price and other investment opportunities. The authority will be exercised only if the Directors believe that to do so will result in an increase in earnings per share and will be in the interests of shareholders generally.
Any purchases of ordinary shares will be by means of market purchases through the London Stock Exchange. Any shares purchased under this authority may either be cancelled or held as treasury shares. Treasury shares may subsequently be cancelled, sold for cash or used to satisfy options issued to employees pursuant to the Company's employees' share schemes. As at 2 April 2015, being the latest practicable date prior to publication of this notice, there were options over 33,633,674 ordinary shares in the capital of the Company which represent 1.85 per cent. of the Company's issued ordinary share capital (excluding treasury shares).
If the authority to purchase the Company's ordinary shares was exercised in full, these options would thereafter represent 2.05 per cent. of the Company's issued ordinary share capital (excluding treasury shares).
The authority will only be valid until the conclusion of the next AGM in 2016 (or, if earlier, 15 months from the date of this resolution). The current articles of association provide the Company with the power to purchase its own shares and the Company has sought the authority of the shareholders to do this by way of special resolution.
It is not proposed or intended to alter the Company's policy of not making political donations, within the normal meaning of that expression. However, given the breadth of the relevant provisions in the Companies Act 2006 it may be that some of the Company's activities may fall within the wide definitions under the Companies Act 2006 and, without the necessary authorisation, the Company's ability to communicate its views effectively to political audiences and to relevant interest groups could be inhibited. Such activities may include briefings at receptions or conferences – when the Company seeks to communicate its views on issues vital to its business interests – including, for example, conferences of a party political nature or of special interest groups.
Accordingly, the Company believes that the authority contained in resolution 18 is necessary to allow it (and its subsidiaries) to fund activities which it is in the interests of shareholders that the Company should support. Such authority will enable the Company and its subsidiaries to be sure that they do not, because of any uncertainty as to the bodies or the activities covered by the Companies Act 2006, unintentionally commit a technical breach of the Companies Act 2006. Any expenditure which may be incurred under authority of this resolution will be disclosed in next year's Annual Report.
