The full text of the resolutions, along with the explanatory notes, is set out
in the Notice of Meeting, which is available on the Company's website:
www.lloydsbankinggroup.com (https://www.lloydsbankinggroup.com)
For all resolutions, as at 6.30 pm on Tuesday 16 May 2023 (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
65,555,872,345 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 the Listing Rule 9.6.2, 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
