Notes on appointing a proxy

  1. If you wish to appoint as your proxy someone other than the Chair of the Meeting, insert his/her name in the space provided in the first box. If the proxy is being appointed in relation to part of your holding only, enter the number of shares over which he/she is authorised to act as your proxy in the box next to the proxy's name. If this box is left blank, he/she will be authorised in respect of your full voting entitlement.

  2. To appoint more than one proxy, you should obtain additional proxy cards from SEGRO plc's Registrars, Equiniti, or you may photocopy this form. Ensure that you specify the number of shares over which each proxy can act, as in Note 1 above. Multiple proxy cards should be returned together in the same envelope.

  3. To be valid, the proxy and the power of attorney or other authority (if any) under which it is signed and dated must be received by Equiniti by 11.00 a.m. on 17 April 2020.

  4. The 'Vote withheld' option is provided to enable a member to withhold his/her vote on any particular resolution. It should be noted that a vote withheld is not a vote in law and will not be counted in the calculation of the proportion of votes 'For' or 'Against' a resolution.

  5. To register the appointment of a proxy electronically, log on to www.sharevote.co.uk using the Voting ID, Task ID and Shareholder Reference Number printed on your proxy card below and follow the instructions provided. Alternatively, shareholders who have already registered with Equiniti's online portfolio service, Shareview, can vote by logging on to their portfolio at www.shareview.co.uk. The proxy appointment must be registered online by 11.00 a.m. on 17 April 2020.

  6. In the case of a corporate shareholder, the proxy appointment must be under seal or signed by a duly authorised officer, attorney or other person.

  7. In the case of joint holdings, the vote of the first named in the register of members will be accepted to the exclusion of other joint holders.

  8. If no specific directions are given, the proxy will vote or abstain from voting as he/she thinks fit on the specified resolutions and, unless instructed otherwise, the person appointed proxy may also vote or abstain from voting as he/she thinks fit on any business (including amendments to resolutions) which may properly come before the Meeting.

  9. A proxy need not be a member of SEGRO plc but must attend the Meeting to represent you. If no name is inserted in the box provided, the Chair of the Meeting will be deemed to be appointed as the proxy.

  10. Any alteration to the proxy card should be initialled by the person who signed it.

  11. The completion and return of the proxy card will not preclude a member from attending the Meeting and voting in person.

  12. If you have any questions about the Meeting or your shareholding, please contact our Registrar, Equiniti, by telephone on 0371 384 2186 (overseas +44 (0)121 415 0141). Lines are open 8.30 a.m. to 5.30 p.m. (Monday to Friday, excluding public holidays in England and Wales.)
