Notes:
1 A vote 'Withheld' is not a vote in law and is not counted in the
calculation of the proportion of votes 'For' or 'Against' a resolution, the
total votes validly cast or the calculation of the proportion of issued share
capital voted.
2 As at the voting record date, Headlam had 85,639,209 ordinary shares in
issue, of which 4,767,467 were held in treasury .
3 To calculate the total votes cast as a percentage of shares in issue,
treasury shares were excluded.
The Board has taken note of the percentage of votes cast against resolutions
3, 8, 9 and 10. In accordance with provision 4 of the UK Corporate
Governance Code (the 'Code'), the Board will continue to engage with relevant
shareholders to understand their views on the voting outcome on these
resolutions, and will provide an update within six months of the AGM, in
accordance with the Code.
The Board thanks shareholders for their engagement ahead of the AGM and
throughout the year, and remains fully committed to ongoing
engagement.
