Notes:

• Includes discretionary votes.
• A vote withheld is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the votes for or against a resolution.
• As announced on 15 July 2024, Resolution 5 to re-elect Jonathan Akeroyd as a Director of the Company was withdrawn on that date. The withdrawal of Resolution 5 did not affect the validity of the Notice, the proxy form or any proxy votes already submitted on the other resolutions. The numbering of all other proposed resolutions at the AGM remained unchanged. Any votes cast in relation to Resolution 5 ahead of the AGM were of no effect.

Every shareholder has one vote for every Ordinary Share held. As at 6.30pm on 12 July 2024, the issued share capital of the Company consisted of 363,816,314 Ordinary Shares. The Company holds 5,232,720 shares in Treasury. Therefore, the total number of voting rights in Burberry Group plc as at 12 July 2024 was 358,583,594.

In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2, copies of all the resolutions passed, other than those concerning ordinary business, have been submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection at: https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism

Board Change

As previously communicated, Debra Lee did not stand for re-election as a Director at the Company's AGM held earlier today and stepped down from the Board following the conclusion of the AGM.

Resolution 11 - re-election of Antoine de Saint-Affrique as a Director of the Company

The Board notes that Resolution 11 relating to Antoine de Saint-Affrique'sre-election to the Board was supported by 76.29% of shareholders and opposed by 23.71% of shareholders who voted.

Following the 2023 AGM, Gerry Murphy, our Chair, wrote again to significant shareholders who had voted against Antoine's re-election in order to understand their concerns more fully. We provided an update on this engagement on 11 January 2024 and included additional information on Antoine's other commitments and his exemplary attendance record, as well as the introduction of a new policy on Board time commitments, in the 2023/24 Annual Report.

The Board has monitored the position closely and is satisfied that Antoine is able to devote sufficient time to his role as Non-Executive Director of Burberry. However, the Board recognises that certain shareholders continue to have concerns and will re-engage with them to understand and respond to their views.
