(2) Proxy appointments which gave discretion to the Chairman of
the Annual General Meeting have been included in the "For" total of
the appropriate resolution.
(3) A "Vote Withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted in
the calculation of the proportion of votes "For" or "Against" any

issued share capital instructed" for any resolution.
(4) Votes "For" and "Against" any resolution are expressed as a
percentage of votes validly cast for that resolution.
(5) The number of shares in issue at 6.00 p.m. on 26 April 2016
was 912,043,475 (the "Share Capital") and at that time, Tullow did
not hold any shares in treasury.
(6) The proportion of "Total issued share capital instructed"
for any resolution is the total of votes instructed in respect of
that resolution (i.e. the total of votes "For", "Against" and
"Withheld" in respect of that resolution) expressed as a percentage
of the Share Capital.
(7) In relation to the re-election of directors, and as was
announced on 9 December 2015, Graham Martin confirmed his
retirement as an Executive Director of the Company with effect from
