Notice of Annual General Meeting

Vodafone Group Plc (the “Company”) announces today that its 2021 Annual General Meeting (“AGM”) will be held on Tuesday, 27 July 2021 at 10.00am at the Pavilion, Vodafone House, The Connection, Newbury, Berkshire, RG14 2FN and live webcast over the internet.

In connection with this, the Notice of AGM and the Forms of Proxy have been submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism, in accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.1. The Notice of AGM is also available on the Company’s website at vodafone.com/agm.

At the time of preparing the Notice of AGM, the Company is continuing to monitor public health guidance and legislation issued by the UK Government and the AGM has been prepared on the anticipated status of the UK Government’s Roadmap out of Lockdown at the date of the meeting. However, whilst attendance in person is expected to be possible, due to the unpredictability of the UK Government guidance and the continuing potential health risks from public gatherings because of the COVID-19 pandemic, shareholders are strongly encouraged to make full use of the webcasting service available and regardless of the number of shares owned, to submit a proxy vote in advance.

Shareholders will also be able to submit a comment or question for consideration by the Directors at the meeting. Questions must be submitted to VodafoneAGMQuestions@equiniti.com by 6.30pm on Friday, 23 July 2021.

If there needs to be any changes to the AGM, shareholders will be notified by way of announcement via the Regulatory News Service.
