Schroder BSC Social Impact Trust plc
(the "Company")
Result of the General Meeting
Following the general meeting of the Company (the "General Meeting"), which was held earlier today, the Board is pleased to announce that the resolution set out in the notice of the General Meeting within the Circular, published 8 November 2024, (the "Resolution") was unanimously passed on a poll as an ordinary resolution.
Proxy votes received in respect of the Resolution were as follows:
| | Resolution | Votes for (including discretionary votes) | % | Votes against | % | Withheld | Total Votes Cast (excludes Votes Withheld) | % of Issued Share Capital voted |
| 1 | That the proposed investment objective and policy be adopted | 65,006,598 | 100.00 | 0 | 0.00 | 0 | 65,006,598 | 78.89% |
Notes: Shareholders are entitled to one vote per share. Votes withheld are not a vote in law and are therefore not counted in the calculation of the percentages of the votes cast for and against a resolution. Where shareholders appointed the Chairman as their proxy with discretion as to voting, their votes were cast in favour of the resolutions and their shares have been included in the "votes for" column.
The total issued share capital consists of 85,316,586 ordinary shares of £0.01 each, which includes 2,956,869 ordinary shares held in treasury. Treasury shares do not carry voting rights, therefore the total number voting rights in the Company is 82,359,717.
The full text of the Resolution can be found in the Circular published on 8 November 2024, which has previously been submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and is available on the Company's website. The full results of the poll conducted at today's meeting are detailed above and will shortly be available on the Company's website, www.schroders.com/SBSI
