Notes
The full text of the resolutions, along with the explanatory notes, is set out
in the Notice of Annual General Meeting, which is available on the Company's
website: www.lloydsbankinggroup.com (https://www.lloydsbankinggroup.com)
For all resolutions, as at 5.30 pm on Tuesday 13 May 2025 (the time at which
shareholders who wanted to attend, speak and vote at the meeting were required
to have their details entered in the register of members), there were
60,072,396,578 ordinary shares in issue.
Ordinary shareholders are entitled to one vote per share. A vote withheld is
not a vote in law and therefore has not been counted in the calculation of the
proportion of votes "For" or "Against" a resolution.
In accordance with UK Listing Rule 6.4.2, copies of the resolutions that do
not constitute ordinary business at the annual general meeting will be
submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for
inspection in unedited full text at
