Diane de Saint Victor and Steve Thieke retired at the 2017 Barclays PLC Annual General Meeting and did not seek re-election. Ms de Saint Victor and Mr Thieke therefore resigned from the Board at the conclusion of the meeting.
As at 6.30pm on Monday, 8 May 2017, the time by which shareholders who wanted to attend, speak and vote at the AGM must have been entered on the Company's register of members, there were 17,032,159,517 ordinary shares in issue. 467 shareholders or persons representing shareholders attended the meeting. Shareholders are entitled to one vote per share. Votes withheld are not votes and, therefore, have not been counted in the calculation of the proportion of votes for and against a resolution.
In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2, 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 www.Hemscott.com/nsm.do
