NOTES:

(a) The "For" vote includes those giving the Chairman discretion.

(b) A vote "Withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the votes "For" or "Against" the resolution.

(c) Passed as a special resolution.

(d) Passed both as an ordinary resolution by a majority of all shareholders and by a majority of the independent shareholders voting on the resolution, in accordance with LR 9.2.2ER.

Votes "For" and "Against" are expressed as a percentage of votes received. Voting was conducted by a poll.

The Board of Directors note the level of votes against resolution 2 (Annual Report on Remuneration) and are disappointed with the outcome of the voting on this resolution. The Board of Directors have sought to set out the rationale for the key decisions taken in relation to remuneration in the Annual Report, which they firmly believe to be in the best interests of all shareholders. The Board values an open and proactive dialogue with our shareholders and will continue to engage with shareholders in the coming year as part of the review of our remuneration policy, which is due to be put to shareholders at the 2024 AGM.

The number of shares in issue at 6.30p.m. on 6 February 2023 was 597,383,363, of which 258,549,668 were held by shareholders other than the controlling shareholder.

The full text of the resolutions can be found in the Notice of Annual General Meeting, which is available for inspection at the National Storage Mechanism https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism and also on the Company's website at www.mbplc.com .

These results will shortly be available on the Company's website at www.mbplc.com and in accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2, copies of the resolutions that were passed at the meeting and 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 data.fca.org.uk
