RESULT OF AGM
London Stock Exchange Group plc (the Exchange) announces that at its AGM today
all the resolutions proposed were duly passed by shareholders other than
resolutions 11 and 12.
These are standard annual resolutions adopted by UK listed companies, enabling
the allotment of shares on a general and non pre-emptive basis on share for
share issues.
Late yesterday, Nasdaq expressed its view to the Exchange that the authority it
sought through resolutions 11 and 12 is out of line with Nasdaq's own governance
standards and that it intended to vote against the resolutions for this reason.
Both resolutions are entirely in line with UK corporate governance guidelines.
The absence of this authority at the AGM does not impact the Exchange's growth
strategy in any way.
