Notes

 

1.   Please note a 'vote withheld' is not a vote under English law and is
not counted in the calculation of votes 'for' and 'against' a resolution.

 

2.   As at 6.30pm on 21 April 2026, the share capital of the Company
consisted of a total of      516,731,514 ordinary shares made up of: (i)
495,279,915 ordinary shares of 6(79/86) pence each (excluding treasury
shares), which carry one vote each; and (ii) 21,451,599 of its ordinary shares
of 6(79/86) pence each in treasury. Therefore, the total number of voting
rights in LSEG as at that time were 495,279,915.

 

3.   Ordinary shareholders are entitled to one vote per share.

 

4.   The percentages above are rounded to two decimal places.

 

5.   Results of the poll will also be available shortly on the Company's
website:  https://www.lseg.com/en/investor-relations/annual-general-meeting

6.   In accordance with UK Listing Rule 6.4.2, copies of the resolutions
that do not constitute ordinary business at an annual general meeting will be
submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for
inspection at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism

7.   Resolution 23 authorises the capitalisation of all or part of the
Company's merger relief reserve to increase the amount of distributable
reserves available, with such amount to be applied to pay up in full one B

subject to the confirmation of the Court, the cancellation of the Capital
Reduction Share and the cancellation of the amount standing to the credit of
the Company's share premium account, and that the amount of such reductions be
credited to the retained earnings reserve of the Company.
