As previously announced, Ms Kilsby was appointed Chair of the Board of Fortune Brands Home & Security, Inc in January 2021 and had confirmed her intention to retire as a BHP Director during 2021 and no later than the 2021 Annual General Meetings. Ms Frew joined the Board of Rolls Royce Holdings plc as a Non-executive Director in July 2021 and is Chair with effect from 1 October 2021. Both Directors will step down from the BHP Board given the time commitments associated with their respective chair appointments. In light of these retirements and the importance of continuity on the Board during the ongoing renewal process, the Board has requested that Malcolm Broomhead seek re-election at the 2021 Annual General Meetings for a further year. The Board supports Malcolm’s re-election given his extensive knowledge of BHP and the mining and resources sector, and the proposed corporate transactions that the Group is undertaking at this time. Malcolm has informed the Board that he will not remain on the Board after the 2022 Annual General Meetings. As previously announced, Michelle Hinchliffe will also join the BHP Board from 1 March 2022. BHP Chair, Mr MacKenzie said “The BHP Board congratulates Susan and Anita on both of these significant appointments. I would like to thank them both for their contribution to BHP over many years and their commitment to our ongoing success. We wish both Susan and Anita all the best for the future.” Further information on BHP can be found at: bhp.com Sponsor: UBS South Africa (Pty) Limited Authorised for lodgement by: Stefanie Wilkinson Group Company Secretary Media Relations Investor Relations Email: media.relations@bhp.com Email: investor.relations@bhp.com Australia and Asia Australia and Asia Gabrielle Notley Tara Dines Tel: +61 3 9609 3830 Mobile: +61 411 071 715 Tel: +61 3 9609 2222 Mobile: + 61 499 249 005 Europe, Middle East and Africa Europe, Middle East and Africa Neil Burrows James Bell Tel: +44 20 7802 7484 Mobile: +44 7786 661 683 Tel: +44 20 7802 7144 Mobile: +44 7961 636 432 Americas Americas Judy Dane Brian Massey Tel: +1 713 961 8283 Mobile: +1 713 299 5342 Tel: +1 713 296 7919 Mobile: +1 832 870 7677 BHP Group Limited ABN 49 004 028 077 BHP Group plc Registration number 3196209 LEI WZE1WSENV6JSZFK0JC28 LEI 549300C116EOWV835768 Registered in Australia Registered in England and Wales Registered Office: Level 18, 171 Collins Street Registered Office: Nova South, 160 Victoria Street Melbourne Victoria 3000 Australia London SW1E 5LB United Kingdom Tel +61 1300 55 4757 Fax +61 3 9609 3015 Tel +44 20 7802 4000 Fax +44 20 7802 4111 Members of the BHP Group which is headquartered in Australia Follow us on social media Date: 14-09-2021 07:15:00 Produced by the JSE SENS Department.
