Vodafone Group Plc ('Vodafone' or the 'Company') will hold its forty-first annual general meeting ('AGM') at The Pavilion, Vodafone House, The Connection, Newbury, Berkshire, RG14 2FN. The meeting will start at 10.00 am on Tuesday, 29 July 2025.

Dear shareholder

The AGM is a valuable opportunity for shareholders to communicate directly with the Board and to ask questions. On behalf of the Board, I encourage you to attend the AGM and would urge you, regardless of the number of shares you own, to vote on the Resolutions set out on pages 12 to 19. If you are unable to attend the AGM, details of how to vote by proxy are set out on pages 20 to 21 of this document.

The AGM will also be live webcast over the internet for registered shareholders, who will also be able to submit questions for consideration by the Directors at the meeting. Instructions on how to submit a question can be found on page 23. Questions must be received by 6.30 pm on Friday, 25 July 2025.

The notice of meeting and the resolutions to be proposed, including explanatory notes to the resolutions, are on pages 12 to 19 of this document (the 'AGM Notice').

Directors

In accordance with the UK Corporate Governance Code 2018 (the 'Code'), all Directors of the Company will stand for election or re-election, as applicable, at the AGM. Accordingly, as part of the ordinary business of the meeting, resolutions 2 to 14 inclusive are to elect and re-elect Directors. During the year there have been several Board and Committee changes. Simon Dingemans joined the Board as a Non-Executive Director with effect from 1 January 2025 and also joined the Audit and Risk Committee. Simon will stand for election by shareholders for the first time at the 2025 AGM. Subject to shareholder approval, Anne-Françoise Nesmes will be appointed as a Non-Executive Director and join the Audit and Risk and ESG Committees with effect from the conclusion of the AGM. Following completion of nine years' service, David Nish, who is currently Senior Independent Director and Chair of the Audit and Risk Committee, will not be seeking re-election at the AGM and will be retiring as a Board member. I would like to take the opportunity to thank David for his outstanding contribution to the Company.

In light of these composition changes and following a review of committee memberships, I am pleased to report, as announced on 2 April 2025, a number of changes that will come into effect from the conclusion of the 2025 AGM. Simon Segars, Non-Executive Director, will be appointed Senior Independent Director and will also join the Nominations and Governance Committee. Simon Dingemans, Non-Executive Director, will be appointed as Chair of the Audit and Risk Committee and member of the Remuneration Committee. Michel Demaré, Non-Executive Director, will cease to be a member of the Nominations and Governance Committee. Christine Ramon, Non-Executive Director, will cease to be a member of the ESG Committee and will join the Remuneration Committee. Delphine Ernotte Cunci, Non-Executive Director, will cease to be a member of the Remuneration Committee and will join the Nominations and Governance Committee.

Chair's letter continued

We announced on 7 May 2025 that Luka Mucic would step down as Group Chief Financial Officer and as a Director of the Company, no later than early 2026 to pursue an external opportunity in Germany. A rigorous search is being conducted to find a suitable successor. Luka will be seeking re-election at the 2025 AGM.

Biographical details for each of the Directors together with a description of the importance of their contribution to the success of the Company and the reasons for their proposed election or reelection, as applicable, can be found on pages 5 to 11 of this document. Biographical details can also be found on pages 73 to 76 of the annual report and accounts for the year ended 31 March 2025 (the '2025 Annual Report') and on our website at vodafone.com/board.

After completing the Board evaluation process, the Board concluded that each existing Director proposed to be elected or re-elected continues to make a valuable contribution to Board meetings and to the meetings of the Committees on which they sit, and that the Directors work together effectively to contribute to the Company's long-term success.

The Board has carefully considered the Directors' commitments and determined that each Director has sufficient time to commit to their respective roles on the Board and to any Committees on which they sit, alongside any other external appointments which they hold. The determination is made based on the ability of each Director to commit sufficient time to fulfil their individual obligations rather than a strict numeric count of directorships. Stephen A. Carter has taken up an additional listed non-executive directorship on the board of Informa TechTarget, Inc. which forms part of the Informa Group. The time commitment for

the non-executive directorship held by Stephen on the board of Informa TechTarget, Inc. is not considered as extensive as a stand-alone position would be. Therefore, after due consideration, the Board is comfortable that Stephen has sufficient capacity to discharge his responsibilities. Stephen's full biography can be found on page 74 of the 2025 Annual Report and on our website at vodafone.com/board.

Recommendation

Your Directors consider that Resolutions 1 to 24 set out on pages 12 to 19 of this document are in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole and recommend that shareholders vote 'FOR' the Resolutions. The results of voting on all the Resolutions will be announced via the Regulatory News Service and published on our website as soon as possible after the end of the AGM.

In addition to the AGM, we like to use our website and email to communicate with our shareholders. All shareholder communications, including this AGM Notice, a copy of the 2025 Annual Report and up-to-date shareholder information are available to view on the dedicated shareholder section of our website, vodafone.com/investors, and I would encourage you to make use of them.

Your Board appreciates your continuing support.

Following the outcome of the Board evaluation process, the Board concluded that each existing Director standing for election or re-election (as applicable) continues to make a valuable contribution to Board meetings and to the meetings of the Committees on which they sit, and that the Directors effectively work together to contribute to the Company's long-term success.

15. Final dividend

To declare a final dividend of 2.25 eurocents per ordinary share for the year ended 31 March 2025.

Vodafone pays cash dividends by direct credit only. In order to receive your dividends directly into your bank or building society account on the dividend payment date, you will need to have provided your account details to the Registrars. Paying dividends into a bank or building society account is a quicker and more secure way for your dividends to be paid directly to you.

In instances where you have not provided valid account details to the Company's Registrar, Equiniti, your distributions due on these shares will be retained and you may be charged a fee for the dividend payment to be released unless you have instructed for your dividend to be reinvested into the Dividend Reinvestment Plan ('DRIP'). Shareholders who elect for the DRIP will automatically receive shares for all future dividends. Shareholders may cancel the election at any time by contacting the Company's Registrar, Equiniti.

Notice of meeting and resolutions to be proposed continued

17. Auditor re-appointment

To re-appoint Ernst & Young LLP as the Company's auditor until the end of the next general meeting at which accounts are laid before the Company.

Note: The Company has to appoint the auditor at each general meeting at which accounts are presented, to hold office until the end of the next meeting of that type. This Resolution, which is recommended by the Audit and Risk Committee, proposes the re-appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the Company's statutory auditor for the financial year ending 31 March 2026.

18. Auditor remuneration

To authorise the Audit and Risk Committee to determine the remuneration of the auditor.

Note: This Resolution follows best practice in corporate governance by separately seeking authority for the Audit and Risk Committee to determine the auditor's remuneration.

Authority to allot shares and authority to allot further shares as part of a rights issue

• 19. To renew the Board's power under Article 11.2 of the Company's Articles of Association to allot shares, grant rights to subscribe for shares and to convert any security into shares in the Company:
  • a. up to an aggregate nominal amount of US\$1,731,151,275; and
  • b. up to a further aggregate nominal amount of US\$1,731,151,275 only for the purposes of a rights issue:
    • − to ordinary shareholders in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to their existing holdings; and
    • − to people who are holders of or otherwise have rights to other equity securities if this is required by the rights

of those securities or, if the Board considers it necessary, as permitted by the rights of those securities,

subject, in both cases, to such exclusions or other arrangements as the Directors may deem necessary or expedient in relation to treasury shares, fractional entitlements, record dates or legal, regulatory or practical problems in, or under the laws of, any territory or any other matter.

The Directors may use this power until the earlier of the end of the next annual general meeting of the Company or the close of business on 30 September 2026. This authority replaces all previous authorities.

Note: The Directors need authority from shareholders to be able to issue shares. This authority is renewed each year at the AGM. The Directors are seeking authority to be able to:

• − issue shares equivalent to one-third of the total issued ordinary share capital of the Company (excluding treasury shares) as at 27 May 2025 (Resolution 19a.); and
• − issue shares equivalent to a further one-third of the total issued ordinary share capital of the Company (excluding treasury shares) as at 27 May 2025 as part of a rights issue (Resolution 19b.). If the Directors exercised this authority, then all the Directors would offer themselves for re-election by the shareholders at the following AGM (as they do each year in the interests of good corporate governance).

The Company's Articles of Association and this Resolution allow the issue or sale of shares after the expiry of this authority if the agreement to issue or sell the shares is entered into while the authority is in force.

At the moment, the Company has no plans to undertake a rights issue or to issue new shares other than to meet its obligations under its executive and employee share plans. However, the Directors believe it to be in the best interests of the Company

that they should continue to have this authority to respond to market developments and to enable shares to be issued to finance business opportunities as they may arise.

The Directors are aware of the latest IA Share Capital Management Guidelines published in February 2023, which update the previous guidance to incorporate all fully pre-emptive offers, not just fully pre-emptive rights issues. The Directors have decided that they will limit the relevant limb of the allotment authority (Resolution 19b.) to rights issues in line with past practice but will keep emerging market practice under review, and consider the current limitation to rights issues provides sufficient flexibility to the Company at present.

At 27 May 2025, the Company held 1,601,369,720 treasury shares, which represents 6.46 percent of the total number of ordinary shares in issue, excluding treasury shares, at that date.

Disapplication of pre-emption rights

• 20. If Resolution 19 is passed, the Board be authorised to allot equity securities (as defined in the Companies Act 2006) for cash under the authority given by that resolution and/or to sell ordinary shares held by the Company as treasury shares for cash as if Section 561 of the Companies Act 2006 did not apply to any such allotment or sale, such authority to be limited:
  • a. to the allotment of equity securities and sale of treasury shares in connection with a pre-emptive offer (as defined in the Company's Articles of Association) (but, in the case of authority granted under Resolution 19b., by way of a rights issue); and
  • b. to the allotment of equity securities and sale of treasury shares (otherwise than under paragraph a. above) up to an aggregate nominal amount of US\$259,672,691,

such authority to expire at the end of the next annual general meeting of the Company (or, if earlier, at the close of business on 30 September 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.

Resolution 20 is proposed as a Special Resolution

Note: Under company law, where shares are issued or treasury shares are sold for cash they must first be offered to the existing shareholders on a pre-emptive basis in accordance with a particular procedure set out in company law (unless they are issued or sold in connection with an employee share scheme). The Directors are seeking authority (with Resolutions 20 and 21) to be able to issue shares or sell treasury shares for cash in certain circumstances. Seeking the disapplication of pre-emption rights in these circumstances gives the Directors flexibility to make an offer to shareholders without following the particular procedure in company law. This enables the Directors to make arrangements in relation to treasury shares, fractional entitlements, record dates or legal, regulatory or practical problems in countries outside the UK or any other matter.

Resolution 20 allows the Directors to allot shares and sell treasury shares for cash (i) in connection with a pre-emptive offer or, in the case of authority granted under Resolution 19b., a pre-emptive rights issue, or (ii) otherwise up to a nominal value of US\$259,672,691, equivalent to just less than 5 percent of the total issued ordinary share capital of the Company excluding treasury shares and 4.70 percent of the total issued ordinary share capital of the Company including treasury shares, as at 27 May 2025, in each case without first having to offer them to existing shareholders in proportion to their holdings.

Notice of meeting and resolutions to be proposed continued

The Directors are also seeking authority to disapply pre-emption rights in respect of allotments of shares and sales of treasury shares for cash representing no more than an additional 5 percent of issued ordinary share capital (excluding treasury shares), to be used only in connection with an acquisition or specified capital investment (see Resolution 21).

The Board intends to continue to not allot shares or other equity securities or sell treasury shares for cash on a non-pre-emptive basis under the authority in Resolution 20 in excess of an amount equal to 7.5 percent of the total issued ordinary share capital of the Company (excluding treasury shares) within a rolling three-year period, other than with prior consultation with shareholders or in connection with an acquisition or specified capital investment which is announced together with the allotment or which has taken place in the preceding six-month period and is disclosed in the announcement of the allotment.

In respect of the authority sought under Resolutions 20 and 21, the Directors acknowledge the provisions of the Pre-Emption Group's most recent Statement of Principles published in November 2022 (the '2022 Statement of Principles'). However, at this time, the Directors consider it appropriate to retain the previous limits of 5 percent of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company in Resolutions 20 and 21 and have not adopted the increased limits of 10 percent set out in the 2022 Statement of Principles nor specifically provided for follow-on offers. The Directors will keep emerging market practice under review but consider that the limits of 5 percent provide sufficient flexibility to the Company at present. The Directors confirm that, in considering the exercise of the authority under Resolutions 20 and 21, they intend to follow the shareholder protections set out in Part 2B of the 2022 Statement of Principles to the extent reasonably practicable and relevant (as the Company is not seeking authority for follow-on offers).

Additional authority for disapplication of pre-emption rights

• 21. If Resolution 19 is passed, the Board be authorised in addition to any authority granted under Resolution 20 to allot equity securities (as defined in the Companies Act 2006) for cash under the authority given by that resolution and/or to sell ordinary shares held by the Company as treasury shares for cash as if Section 561 of the Companies Act 2006 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 US\$259,672,691; and
  • b. used only for the purposes of financing (or refinancing, if the authority is to be used within twelve months after the original transaction) a transaction which the Board determines to be an acquisition or other capital investment of a kind contemplated by the 2022 Statement of Principles,

such authority to expire at the end of the next annual general meeting of the Company (or, if earlier, at the close of business on 30 September 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.

Resolution 21 is proposed as a Special Resolution

Note: The purpose of Resolution 21 is to authorise the Directors to allot new shares under the allotment authority given by Resolution 19, or sell treasury shares, for cash up to a further nominal amount of US\$259,672,691, equivalent to just less than 5 percent of the total issued ordinary share capital of the Company as at 27 May 2025 excluding treasury shares and 4.70 percent of the total issued ordinary share capital of the Company including treasury shares, only in connection with an acquisition or specified capital investment which is announced together with the allotment, or which has taken place in the preceding twelve-month period and is disclosed in the announcement of the issue.

If the authority given in Resolution 21 is used, the Company will publish details of the issuance or sale in its next Annual Report.

Share buyback

• 22. To authorise the Company, for the purposes of Section 701 of the Companies Act 2006, to make market purchases (as defined in Section 693 of the Companies Act 2006) of ordinary shares of 2020⁄21 US cents each in the capital of the Company provided that:
  • a. the maximum aggregate number of ordinary shares which may be purchased is 3,715,558,736;
  • b. the minimum price which may be paid for each ordinary share is 2020⁄21 US cents;
  • c. the maximum price (excluding expenses) which may be paid for any ordinary share does not exceed the higher of:
    • − 5 percent above the average market price of such shares on the London Stock Exchange Daily Official List for the five business days prior to the date of purchase; and

− the higher of the price of the last independent trade and the highest current independent bid on the trading venues where the purchase is carried out.

This authority will expire at the earlier of the end of the next annual general meeting of the Company or at the close of business on 30 September 2026, unless the authority is renewed before then (except in relation to a purchase of ordinary shares where the contract was concluded before the expiry of the authority but which might be executed wholly or partly after that expiry).

Resolution 22 is proposed as a Special Resolution

Note: Resolution 22 grants authority to the Company to purchase up to 3,715,558,736 ordinary shares (being just less than 15 percent of the issued share capital of the Company (excluding treasury shares) as at 27 May 2025, the last practicable date prior to the publication of this AGM Notice) until the earlier of the next AGM of the Company in 2026 or at the close of business on 30 September 2026, whichever occurs first. The Company's exercise of this authority is subject to the upper and lower limits on the price payable set out in the Resolution.

Similar resolutions granting authority to repurchase shares have been approved by shareholders in previous years. The existing authority to buyback shares expires at the end of the 2025 AGM. Between (i) 15 May 2024 and 6 August 2024, (ii) 7 August 2024 and 13 November 2024, (iii) 14 November 2024 and 23 January 2025 and (iv) 4 February and 19 May 2025, Vodafone undertook non-discretionary share buyback programmes with Morgan Stanley & Co. International Plc, Goldman Sachs International, Citigroup Global Markets Limited, and Goldman Sachs International respectively following the sale of Vodafone Spain to Zegona Communications Plc. Following the completion of the sale of Vodafone Italy to Swisscom AG on 31 December 2024, and as announced

Notice of meeting and resolutions to be proposed continued

on 20 May 2025, the Board approved the launch of a further share buyback programme of up to €2.0 billion that will be split into quarterly rolling programmes. As part of this, an initial €500 million share buyback programme commenced on 20 May 2025 with Citigroup Global Markets Limited.

As at 27 May 2025, the Company has purchased 1,804,297,088 ordinary shares under those programmes, which is below the limit the Company announced for the programmes and below the number of ordinary shares permitted to be purchased pursuant to the authority granted by the shareholders at the AGM on 30 July 2024 (4,053,092,397 ordinary shares).

This year, authority is being sought to repurchase just less than 15 percent of the issued share capital of the Company in order to continue to facilitate these specific transaction proceeds-related share buyback programmes following the 2025 AGM.

Under UK company law, the Company can:

• − hold the shares it has repurchased as treasury shares and resell them for cash or cancel them, either immediately or in the future; or
• − use them for the purposes of its employee share schemes.

The Directors intend for the shares purchased under this authority to be held in treasury and cancelled on a periodic basis. It is not intended that the Company would hold more than 10 percent of its issued share capital in treasury at any time.

Any treasury shares sold by the Company will count towards the number of shares which, if Resolutions 20 and 21 are passed, may be issued or sold without first offering them to existing shareholders (except when sold in connection with an employee share scheme).

The Board carefully considered the implementation of these share buyback programmes in the context of a broad capital allocation review, considering the investment profile of the Group's strategy and the reshaping of it's European operations.

The total number of warrants and options to subscribe for shares issued by the Company outstanding as at 27 May 2025 was 363,548,439. This represents 1.47 percent of the issued share capital at that date (excluding treasury shares). If the Company was to purchase the maximum number of shares permitted under this Resolution, then the total number of warrants and options to subscribe for shares issued by the Company outstanding at 27 May 2025 would represent 1.37 percent of the total issued ordinary share capital (excluding treasury shares).

Political donations and expenditure

• 23. To authorise the Company and its subsidiaries during the period this Resolution has effect, for the purposes of Part 14 of the Companies Act 2006:
  • a. to make political donations to political parties and/or independent election candidates not exceeding £100,000;
  • b. to make political donations to political organisations other than political parties not exceeding £100,000; and
  • c. to incur political expenditure not exceeding £100,000, provided that the aggregate of donations and expenditure under a., b., and c. does not exceed £100,000.

All existing authorisations and approvals relating to political donations or expenditure under Part 14 of the Companies Act 2006 are revoked without prejudice to any donation made or expenditure incurred before those authorisations or approvals were revoked. This authority will expire at the earlier of the end of the next annual general meeting of the Company or at the close of business on 30 September 2026.

Words and expressions defined for the purpose of the Companies Act 2006 have the same meaning in this Resolution.

Note: The Companies Act 2006 requires shareholder approval for:

• − donations by companies to registered political parties, other political organisations and independent election candidates totalling more than £5,000 in any 12-month period; and
• − companies to incur any political expenditure (subject to limited exceptions).

The definition of donation in this context is very wide and extends to bodies concerned with policy review, law reform and the representation of the business community. It could also include special interest groups, such as those involved with the environment, which the Company and its subsidiaries might wish to support, even though doing so would not be designed to support or influence support for a particular political party.

The existing authority for these payments expires at the end of the Company's 2025 AGM.

The Company's policy is still not to make political donations or incur political expenditure as those expressions are normally understood. However, the Directors consider that it is in the best interests of the shareholders for the Company to participate in public debate and opinion-forming on matters which affect its business. To avoid inadvertently infringing the Companies Act 2006, the Directors are seeking authority for the Company and its subsidiaries to make political donations and to incur political expenditure during the period from the date of the AGM in 2025 to the end of the AGM in 2026 or at the close of business on 30 September 2026 (whichever occurs first). This is subject to a maximum aggregate amount of £100,000.

No payments have been made under previous authorities given in this regard and the Company has no current intention to use this authority in the subsequent year.

Consent to short notice

24. To authorise the Board to call general meetings (other than annual general meetings) on a minimum of 14 clear days' notice.

Resolution 24 is proposed as a Special Resolution

Note: The Directors would like to be able to call general meetings (other than AGMs) on 14 clear days' notice (rather than the default 21 days specified under the Companies Act 2006).

Resolution 24 seeks approval to be able to do this, effective until the end of the Company's AGM in 2026. The shorter notice period of 14 clear days will not be routinely used for general meetings, but will only be used where the business of the meeting merits that flexibility and the Directors believe it to be beneficial to shareholders as a whole.

The Company intends to seek this authority each year.

The Company meets the requirements for electronic voting under the relevant regulations to be able to call a general meeting on 14 clear days' notice.

Your Directors are recommending that shareholders vote 'FOR' Resolutions 1 to 24 as they intend to do for their own shareholdings in Vodafone.

By Order of the Board

Notes to the AGM Notice

1. Information rights

Any person who has been nominated under Section 146 of the Companies Act 2006 to enjoy information rights (a 'Nominated Person') may, under an agreement between them and the shareholder by whom they were nominated, have a right to be appointed (or to have someone else appointed) as a proxy for the AGM. If a Nominated Person has no such proxy appointment right or does not wish to exercise it, they may, under any such agreement, have a right to give instructions to the shareholder as to the exercise of voting rights. The rights relating to proxy appointments in these notes do not apply directly to Nominated Persons.

2. Documents available for inspection

Copies of the Directors' service contracts and the terms and conditions of appointment of all Non Executive Directors and a copy of this AGM Notice will be available for inspection at the registered office of the Company and at the offices of Slaughter and May, 1 Bunhill Row, London EC1Y 8YY during normal business hours on any weekday (excluding public holidays) from the date of this AGM Notice until (and including) the date of the AGM, and at The Pavilion, Vodafone House, The Connection, Newbury, Berkshire, RG14 2FN from 9.45 am on that date until the end of the AGM. A copy of this AGM Notice and other information required by Section 311A of the Companies Act 2006 is also available on the Company's website at vodafone.com/agm.

3. Entitlement to attend and vote

The Company will determine which shareholders are entitled to attend and vote at the AGM, and the number of votes which may be cast, by reference to the Company's shareholder register at 6.30 pm on Friday, 25 July 2025 or, if the meeting is adjourned, 48 hours (excluding non-working days) before the time set for the adjourned meeting. In each case, changes to the shareholder register after that time will not be taken into account.

Shareholders are reminded of their right under Section 360BA of the Companies Act 2006 to request, within thirty days following the AGM, information which enables them to determine that their vote on a poll at the general meeting was validly recorded and counted by the Company.

4. Appointing a proxy Direct Shareholders

A shareholder holding shares directly on the register of members (a 'Direct Shareholder') may appoint another person as their proxy to exercise all or any of their rights to attend, speak and vote at the AGM.

Direct Shareholders can register proxy appointments and instructions by using one of the following methods:

• − visiting our website, vodafone.com/agm, and following the 'Vote Online' link. Please ensure you have your Shareholder Reference Number to hand which is shown on your proxy form. For shareholders who have elected to receive notice via email, and who have therefore not received a proxy card, a proxy or proxies may be appointed electronically by logging into your Portfolio at www.shareview.co.uk;
• − completing and signing the proxy form and returning it in the addressed envelope along with any power of attorney or other authority under which it is executed (or a duly certified copy of any such power or authority) to Equiniti Limited, Aspect House, Spencer Road, Lancing, West Sussex, BN99 6DA; or

− submitting a CREST message, if you are a CREST member. Please see Note 8 on the proxy form for details.

All proxy appointments and instructions, by whichever method you choose, must be received by the Company's registrars, Equiniti Limited (the 'Registrars') by 10.00 am on Friday, 25 July 2025, or if the meeting is adjourned, 48 hours (excluding non-working days) before the time set for the adjourned meeting. You are encouraged to choose electronic proxy appointment and instructions.

If you appoint a proxy, you will still be able to come to the AGM in person and vote, if you wish to do so.

5. Appointing a proxy

VSA members

Shareholders who hold shares through the Vodafone Share Account ('VSA') and cannot attend the meeting in person can instruct Equiniti Financial Services Limited (the 'Nominee') to vote on their behalf, using one of the following methods:

• − visiting our website, vodafone.com/agm, and following the 'Vote Online' link. Please ensure you have your Shareholder Reference Number to hand which is shown on the front of the voting instruction form; or
• − completing and signing the voting instruction form and returning it in the addressed envelope.

All voting instructions, by whichever method you choose, must be received by our Registrars by 10.00 am on Thursday, 24 July 2025, or if the meeting is adjourned, 72 hours (excluding non-working days) before the time set for the adjourned meeting. You are encouraged to choose the electronic method.

If you instruct the Nominee to vote for you, you will still be able to come to the AGM in person and vote, if you wish to do so.

6. Using the CREST service Proxy Instruction

CREST members who wish to appoint a proxy or proxies through the CREST electronic proxy appointment service may do so for the AGM (and any adjournment of the AGM) by following the procedures described in the CREST Manual (available via euroclear.com). CREST Personal Members or other CREST sponsored members (and those CREST members who have appointed a voting service provider) should refer to their CREST sponsor or voting service provider, who will be able to take the appropriate action on their behalf.

For a proxy appointment or instruction made by means of CREST to be valid, the appropriate CREST message (a 'CREST Proxy Instruction') must be properly authenticated in accordance with Euroclear's specifications and must contain the information required for such instructions, as described in the CREST Manual. The message (regardless of whether it constitutes the appointment of a proxy or an amendment to the instruction given to a previously appointed proxy) must, to be valid, be transmitted so as to be received by Equiniti Limited (RA19) by the latest time for receipt of proxy appointments specified in Note 4. For this purpose, the time of receipt will be taken to be the time (as determined by the timestamp 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.

After this time any change of instructions to a proxy appointed through CREST should be communicated to them by other means.

CREST members (and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers) should note that Euroclear does not make available special procedures in CREST for any particular messages.

Notes to the AGM Notice continued

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, to procure that his/her CREST sponsor or voting service provider takes) such action as is 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.

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.

If you appoint a proxy via the CREST electronic proxy appointment service, you will still be able to come to the AGM in person, if you wish to do so.

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. Your proxy must be lodged by 10.00 am on Friday, 25 July 2025, or if the meeting is adjourned, 48 hours (excluding non-working days) before the time set for the adjourned meeting, in order to be considered valid. 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.

7. Corporate representatives

A shareholder that is a company or other organisation not having a physical presence cannot attend in person and must therefore appoint someone to represent it. Company law provides for two alternative methods to do this: the appointment of a proxy (described above) or a corporate representative.

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. Shareholders considering the appointment of a corporate representative are recommended to check their legal position and also view the Company's Articles of Association, available on vodafone.com/board.

Corporate representatives wishing to attend the AGM are recommended to pre-register with the Registrars and then arrive at the registration desks in good time before the start of the meeting, particularly if representing a number of different holdings. Typically, this might need to be at least 30 minutes before the start of the meeting.

8. Electronic addresses

Electronic addresses provided in this AGM Notice, the proxy form and voting instruction form are provided only for those purposes expressly stated.

9. Joint holders

In the case of joint holders, where more than one of the joint holders completes a proxy form or VSA Voting Instruction Form for the joint holding, only the form submitted by the holder whose name appears first in the Company's register of members will be accepted.

10. Total voting rights and share capital

As at 27 May 2025, which is the latest practicable date before publication of this AGM Notice, the Company had 26,388,285,902 ordinary shares of 2020⁄21 US cents each (including treasury shares) and 50,000 7 percent cumulative fixed rate shares of £1 each. The total number of votes exercisable as at 27 May 2025 was 24,786,916,182. The holders of ordinary shares are entitled to attend and vote at general meetings of the Company. On a vote by show of hands every ordinary shareholder who is present and entitled to vote has one vote and every proxy present who has been duly appointed by a shareholder entitled to vote has one vote.

On a vote by poll every ordinary shareholder who is present in person or by proxy has one vote for every ordinary share held. The holders of 7 percent cumulative fixed rate shares are only entitled to attend and vote at general meetings of the Company in very limited circumstances, as set out in the Articles of Association of the Company.

Each of the Resolutions to be put to the meeting will be voted on by way of a poll and not by a show of hands. A poll reflects the number of voting rights exercisable by each member and so the Board considers it a more democratic method of voting.

11. Right to request a statement from the Company

Shareholders should note that, under Section 527 of the Companies Act 2006, shareholders meeting the threshold requirements set out in that section have the right to require the Company to publish, on a website, a statement setting out any matter relating to (a) the audit of the Company's accounts (including the auditor's report and the conduct of the audit) that are to be laid before the AGM, or (b) any circumstances connected with an auditor of the Company ceasing to hold office since the previous meeting at which annual accounts and reports were laid.

The Company may not require the shareholders requesting any such website publication to pay its expenses in complying with Section 527 or 528 (requirements as to website availability) of the Companies Act 2006. Where the Company is required to place a statement on a website under Section 527 of the Companies Act 2006, it must forward the statement to the Company's auditor not later than the time when it makes the statement available on the website. The business which may be dealt with at the AGM for the relevant financial year includes any statement that the Company has been required under Section 527 of the Companies Act 2006 to publish on a website.

12. Right to ask questions at the AGM

Any shareholder has the right to ask questions in relation to the business of the AGM. Shareholders are invited to send questions or comments relating to the business being dealt with at the AGM by email to Vodafone.AGMquestions@equiniti.com. Questions or comments must be received by 6.30 pm on Friday, 25 July 2025. Any shareholder attending the AGM in person also has the right to ask questions. The Company must give an answer to any such question relating to the business being dealt with at the AGM except if (a) to do so would interfere unduly with the preparation for the meeting 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 meeting that the question be answered.

Notes to the AGM Notice continued

13. Right to propose a resolution

Under Section 338 and Section 338A of the Companies Act 2006, shareholders meeting the threshold requirements in those sections have the right to require the Company (a) to give to shareholders of the Company entitled to receive notice of the AGM, notice of a resolution which may properly be moved and is intended to be moved at the AGM, and/or (b) to include in the business to be dealt with at the AGM any matter (other than a proposed resolution) which may be properly included in the business. A resolution may properly be moved or a matter may properly be included in the business unless (a) (in the case of a resolution only) it would, if passed, be ineffective (whether by reason of inconsistency with any enactment or the Company's constitution or otherwise), (b) it is defamatory of any person, or (c) it is frivolous or vexatious.

Such a request may be in hard copy form or in electronic form, must identify the resolution of which notice is to be given or the matter to be included in the business, must be authenticated by the person or persons making it, and must be received by the Company not later than 17 June 2025 which is six clear weeks before the AGM. In the case of a matter to be included in the business only, it must also be accompanied by a statement setting out the grounds for the request.

14. Data protection

Your personal data includes all data provided by you, or on your behalf, which relates to you as a shareholder, including your name and contact details, the votes you cast and your Shareholder Reference Number. The Company and any third party to which it discloses the data (including our Registrars) may process your personal data in accordance with the Company's privacy policy for the purposes of compiling and updating the Company's records and fulfilling the Company's legal obligations. The Company's shareholder privacy policy is available online at vodafone.com/shareholdercentre.
