With the exception of nominee companies, most of which are institutional investors, stated shareholdings are only those directly
held.
Consolidation of share accounts
Shareholders whose total registered shareholding is represented by more than one account, evidenced by the receipt of
duplicate copies of communications from the Company to shareholders, and who wish to have their holdings consolidated
should send an appropriate letter of instruction to the Company’s Registrars.
Share values
Upon flotation of the Company on 11 October 1988 the ordinary shares were valued at 170p each. On 16 September
1991, when the Company was finally demerged, for UK taxpayers the base cost of Racal Electronics Plc shares was
apportioned between Vodafone Group Plc and Racal Electronics Plc for Capital Gains Tax purposes in the ratio of
80.036% and 19.964% respectively. Opening share prices on 16 September 1991 were 332p for each Vodafone share
and 223p for each Racal share. On 21 July 1994 the Company effected a bonus issue of two new shares for every one
then held. The flotation and demerger share prices, therefore, may be restated as 56.667p and 110.667p respectively.
