Invitation from the Chair

On behalf of your Board of Directors, I am pleased to invite you to the 2022 Annual General Meeting (AGM) of CSL Limited (CSL or the Company).

Our AGM will be held on Wednesday, 12 October at the Clarendon Auditorium, Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre, South Wharf, Melbourne 3000, starting at 10am. We are pleased to be holding our AGM in person after two years of virtual meetings and invite shareholders to join us at the venue. Those unable to attend can watch a live webcast of the meeting. Please find a map of the venue and transport details on pages 20-21.

Shortly after opening the AGM, I will address the meeting and then our Chief Executive Officer will review CSL's operations and performance over the year to 30 June 2022. We will then move through the items of business set out in this Notice of Meeting and you will have an opportunity to ask questions about the management and operations of the Company.

As with our approach in previous years, we invite shareholders to submit written questions ahead of the AGM and we will endeavour to answer as many of these questions as possible.
