Statement in connection with Resolutions 3 and 12

The Company is pleased that all resolutions were supported by a significant majority of
shareholders.  However, the Board recognises that there were meaningful votes against
Resolution 3, approval of the Directors’ Remuneration Policy, and Resolution 12 to re-elect
the Chair as a Director of the Company.  The Remuneration Committee Chair and the Senior
Independent Director have engaged with shareholders before the meeting today and will
continue to engage with shareholders following today’s meeting to understand their
concerns.  The Board is committed to giving an update on these matters promptly.

 

Notes

(1) Includes discretionary votes

(2) A vote withheld is not, in law, a vote and is not counted in the votes for or against a
resolution

Results of the poll  (and a composite set of questions and answers discussed at the
meeting) will also shortly be available on the Company's website:
https://www.travisperkinsplc.co.uk/investors/shareholder-centre/general-meetings/?year=2024
