Notes:
1. Any proxy appointments which gave discretion to the Chair have been
included in Votes For.
2. Votes For and Votes Against are expressed as a percentage of Total Votes
Cast, which includes Votes For and Votes Against, but excludes the Votes
Withheld. Percentages are rounded to 2 decimal places.
3. A Vote Withheld is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation
of the Votes For or Votes Against a resolution.
4. Total Votes Cast includes the Votes For and Votes Against, but excludes the
Votes Withheld.
5. Total Votes Cast as a % of Issued Share Capital is based on 238,662,231
PensionBee Group plc ordinary shares in issue as at 14 May 2026. Ordinary
shareholders are entitled to one vote per share held.
* Under the UK Listing Rules, because Romi Savova is a controlling shareholder
of the Company (that is, she exercises or controls more than 30% of the voting
rights of the Company), the election of any independent director by
shareholders must be approved by a majority vote of both: (1) the shareholders
of the Company; and (2) the independent shareholders of the Company (that is,
the shareholders of the Company entitled to vote on the election of Directors
who are not controlling shareholders of the Company). Under the UK Listing
Rules, anyone who holds shares in the Company and is deemed to be acting in
concert with Romi Savova is also treated as a controlling shareholder for the
purposes of these voting requirements. Therefore, the votes of these persons
are excluded when calculating the votes of the independent shareholders.
Resolutions 8 to 11 were therefore proposed as ordinary resolutions which all
shareholders may vote on, but in addition, the Company separately counts the
number of votes cast by independent shareholders in favour of the resolutions
(as a proportion of the total votes of independent shareholders cast on the
resolutions) to determine whether the second threshold referred to in (2) has
been met.
