      Notes:
   i.   As at 6:30pm on 12 May 2020, the time by which shareholders who wanted to vote at the AGM must have been entered
        on the Company's register of members, the number of issued shares in the Company was 1,871,776,030 ordinary shares.
        In accordance with the Company's articles of association, on a poll every member present in person or by proxy had one
        vote for every share held.

   ii. Votes withheld are not votes in law and therefore have not been counted in the calculation of the proportion of the votes
       for or against a resolution.

   iii. All percentages are shown to two decimal places.

Pursuant to UK Listing Rule 9.6.2R, copies of all resolutions, other than those concerning ordinary business, passed at the AGM
today have been submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available to view
at http://www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/NSM.

The poll results will also be available shortly on the Company's website at quilter.com/agm.

Group Solvency and Financial Condition Report Publication
Additionally, the Group wishes to confirm the publication of its Group Solvency and Financial Condition Report ("SFCR") for the
12 month period ended 31 December 2019. In accordance with the requirements of the Solvency II Regulations, a copy of the
