Notes:
1. The Board notes that votes over 27,316,025 shares, representing 31.43% of votes validly cast, were received against the re-election of Adrian Li (resolution 12). The Board seeks to ensure that each Director is able to make the necessary commitment to the delivery of their role and is satisfied that all Directors, including Adrian Li, have sufficient capacity to meet their commitments to The Berkeley Group. We have consulted with a number of shareholders and proxy advisors to discuss the issues raised and will continue to engage with shareholders on this matter.
2. Votes 'In Favour' include those votes giving discretion to the Chairman.
3. The number of Ordinary Shares in issue at close of business on 3 September 2018 (excluding shares held in Treasury) was 131,666,329. A vote withheld is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the proportion of votes validly cast.
4. Copies of the resolutions passed will shortly be available for inspection on the National Storage Mechanism at http://www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/NSM.
5. The full text of the resolutions can be found in the Notice of Annual General Meeting which can be located in the Investor Information section of the Company's website www.berkeleygroup.co.uk.
