Result of AGM
The Board is pleased to announce that all resolutions proposed
in the Notice of Meeting were put to the Annual General Meeting,
held earlier today, and passed on a poll. The results of the poll
are shown below.
The total number of votes received for each resolution is shown
below. Each shareholder present, virtually or by proxy, was
entitled to one vote per share. Votes withheld are not votes in law
and therefore have not been counted in the calculation of the
percentage of votes for or against a resolution. The percentages
are rounded to two decimal places.
The total number of shares (excluding 9,859 treasury shares) on
27 June 2022, being those eligible to vote, was 782,878,076.

Resolution 11 - Re-election of Caroline Silver
Caroline Silver is an experienced non-executive director who
makes a positive contribution to our Board and Committee meetings
and we are pleased that the majority of our shareholders supported
her re-election.
Whilst the Board acknowledges the different views amongst some
of its shareholders and will continue to consider the full range of
feedback when reviewing the composition of Meggitt's Board, the
Board believes that Caroline devotes sufficient time to her role
and is a fully engaged and valued member of the Board and the
Board, alongside the majority of our shareholders, are fully
supportive of her re-election.
Whilst we believe today's vote is a reflection of overboarding
concerns, we will engage with the relevant shareholders to better
understand the background to their vote. It is noted that owing to
the changes in our shareholder composition since the last AGM as a
result of the proposed acquisition by Parker-Hannifin, only 25% of
shareholders voted this year compared to just over 80% in 2021
which may have impacted the result of this vote.
