resolution 19, shareholders will have noted that this year the Company amended
the authority being sought in Resolution 19 to increase the disapplication of
statutory pre-emption rights from 5% to 10% of Rio Tinto&#8217;s issued share
capital, for use only in the limited circumstances referred to in the notice of
meeting, in line with the updated statement of principles issued by the
Pre-Emption Group in March 2015. The resolution unfortunately contained a numerical
error, as a result of which, as in previous years, the maximum number of shares
which the Company could issue on a non-pre-emptive basis pursuant to this
authority remains at 5% of Rio Tinto&#8217;s issued share capital at the latest
practicable date prior to the date of the meeting.</font></p>

in any event apparent that certain institutional investors have differing views
over the new Pre-Emption Group principles.&nbsp; In 2017 Rio Tinto plans to
revert to its previous approach of seeking a 5% disapplication and will seek
further engagement with shareholders in relation to the Pre-Emption Group&#8217;s
principles.</font></p>
