Shareholders are entitled to one vote per share. Votes withheld are not a vote in law and are therefore not counted in the calculation of the percentages of the votes cast for and against a resolution. Where shareholders appointed the Chairman as their proxy with discretion as to voting, their votes were cast in favour of the resolutions and their shares have been included in the "votes for" column.
Please note a 'vote withheld' is not a vote under English law and is not counted in the calculation of votes 'for' or 'against' a resolution.
The total number of ordinary shares of 50p each in issue is 95,667,627. The total number of voting rights is: 95,667,627.
A copy of the resolutions passed at today's AGM will be available for inspection on the Company's website at http://www.groundrentsincomefund.com
