As the Company has a controlling shareholder (as defined in the Financial Conduct Authority's Listing Rules), the resolution to elect an independent director (being resolution 5) has, under Listing Rule 9.2.2E, been approved by a majority of the votes cast by:
 the shareholders of the Company as a whole; and
 the independent shareholders of the Company, that is, all the shareholders entitled to vote on each resolution excluding the controlling shareholder.
Note: A "vote withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the proportion of the votes "for" and "against" a resolution.
All of the above resolutions were passed on a show of hands. Each was passed unanimously in favour. Resolutions 11, 12 and 13 were passed as special resolutions.
Following completion of the recent Tender offer and the resulting reduction in the Company's issued share capital, the Directors have undertaken not to exceed the appropriate limits set out in the guidelines issued by the Investment Association in relation to Resolutions 10, 11 and 12 of the AGM Notice.
The number of ordinary shares in issue at the date of this announcement is 199,054,325.

Notes to Editors

- Passive Hedging, where Record seeks to eliminate fully or partially the economic impact of currency movements on elements of clients' investment portfolios that are denominated in foreign currencies;
- Currency for Return, in which Record enters into currency contracts for clients with the objective of generating positive returns; and
