Resolved clause
In alignment with Maersk’s commitment to the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGP) and the EU’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), this proposal requests that shareholders vote FOR enhancing public disclosure of the Company’s heightened human rights due diligence for military- related logistics and participation in military equipment supply chains. The disclosures should, therefore, include but not be limited to: • How the Company identifies, assesses and mitigates actual and potential human rights impacts, including impacts associated with logistics of shipping arms, military equipment/“military-related cargo,” and related services in conflict-affected or high-risk contexts, including how the Company engages stakeholders to inform and refine due diligence. • Detailed actions and strategies for heightened due diligence for contracts, shipments, and projects with high human-rights risk, including triggers, escalation/decision authority, and when business is rejected, suspended, or terminated to prevent involvement in abuses. • Methods by which the Company reviews effectiveness of risk mitigation and updates controls in response to evolving legal frameworks and credible new public information, including monitoring and audit mechanisms. • How the Company engages stakeholders (affected communities, independent human rights experts, regulators) to inform and refine due diligence in high-risk scenarios, including how inputs are evaluated and acted upon, without disclosing proprietary or customer-identifying information. The disclosed information shall be updated and published at least once a year at reasonable cost, omitting proprietary information. The disclosed information shall be made public before the Annual General Meeting notice starting in 2027 and may be included in the current reporting suite, compliant with the CSRD

DISCLAIMER: By including a shareholder resolution or management proposal in this database, neither the PRI nor the sponsor of the resolution or proposal is seeking authority to act as proxy for any shareholder; shareholders should vote their proxies in accordance with their own policies and requirements.

Any voting recommendations set forth in the descriptions of the resolutions and management proposals included in this database are made by the sponsors of those resolutions and proposals, and do not represent the views of the PRI.

Information on the shareholder resolutions, management proposals and votes in this database have been obtained from sources that are believed to be reliable, but the PRI does not represent that it is accurate, complete, or up-to-date, including information relating to resolutions and management proposals, other signatories’ vote pre-declarations (including voting rationales), or the current status of a resolution or proposal. You should consult companies’ proxy statements for complete information on all matters to be voted on at a meeting.
