Quilter plc

Result of Annual General Meeting 2024

Quilter plc (the "Company") announces that at its Annual General Meeting ("AGM") held earlier today, all the resolutions put to shareholders were passed by the requisite majorities. Resolutions 1 to 15 were passed as ordinary resolutions and resolutions 16 and 17 were passed as special resolutions.

The Company notes that more than 20% of the votes cast on resolution 15 ("To authorise political donations by the Company and its subsidiaries") were against that resolution.

The Company has actively engaged with our shareholders on this issue since Listing in 2018 and understand their concerns which reflect a difference in market practice for many of our South African shareholders. The Company will continue to engage with shareholders in accordance with the UK Corporate Governance Code and will provide an update on these discussions in due course.

Notes:

1. As at 6:30pm on Tuesday 21 May 2024, the time by which shareholders who wanted to vote at the AGM must have been entered on the Company's register of members, the number of issued shares in the Company was 1,404,105,498 ordinary shares. In accordance with the Company's articles of association, on a poll every member present in person or by proxy had one vote for every share held.
2. Votes withheld are not votes in law and therefore have not been counted in the calculation of the proportion of the votes for or against a resolution.
3. All percentages are shown to two decimal places.

Pursuant to UK Listing Rule 9.6.2R, copies of all resolutions, other than those concerning ordinary business, passed at the AGM today will be submitted to and available for inspection at the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available to view at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism.

The poll results will also be available shortly on the Company's website at plc.quilter.com/gm.
