NEWS RELEASE


Release Time		IMMEDIATE

Date		17 January 2022

Release Number		1/22

Update on BHP Group Limited General Meeting to approve unification proposal

Given the ongoing COVID-19 situation in Melbourne, BHP Group Limited has today announced that the General Meeting of BHP Group Limited on 20 January 2022 to approve BHP’s unification proposal will be held as an online meeting.

BHP is committed to health and safety, including the health and safety of our shareholders and our people. Accordingly, as foreshadowed as a possible contingency plan in the Notice of Limited General Meeting released on 8 December 2021, BHP has today decided that the BHP Group Limited meeting will be held as an online meeting instead of an in-person meeting in Melbourne.

The date and time of the meeting remain unchanged. The meeting will be held online at 6:00pm (Melbourne time) on Thursday, 20 January 2022. The business to be considered at the meeting also remains unchanged, and is set out in the original Notice of Limited General Meeting. There are no changes to the arrangements for the BHP Group Plc scheme and general meetings also being held on 20 January and related to unification.

BHP recognises the importance of the meeting as an opportunity for BHP Group Limited shareholders to consider and vote on the unification proposal. BHP Group Limited shareholders will be able to ask questions and vote in real time via an online platform.

Participating in the meeting online

As was the case with last year’s Annual General Meeting, BHP Group Limited Shareholders can view the meeting live, ask questions on the items of business and cast live votes during the meeting, once they have registered their attendance on the Lumi platform.
