When accessing the webcast you will be asked to enter your unique 11 digit Investor Code (IVC) including any leading zeros, and ‘PIN’. Your PIN is the last 4 digits of your IVC. Access to the webcast will be available approximately half an hour prior to the start of the meeting.
Like, last year this will be a physical meeting, but for those unable to attend we will again be providing an audio-only webcast.
Your vote is important to us and you are encouraged to vote either in advance of the AGM or on the day. All resolutions at the AGM will be put to shareholders by way of poll rather than a show of hands.
If you will not be participating in the meeting in person or otherwise wish to vote in advance, you may appoint a proxy by post, online through CREST or via Proxymity as further detailed in the Important Information section of this Notice.
Shareholders will be able to submit questions in advance of the AGM, by emailing them to agmquestions@whitbread.com.
Questions must be submitted by 5pm on Monday 18 June 2025. Shareholders attending in person will be able to ask questions at the meeting as usual.
