Any proxy form (and any Power of Attorney under which it is signed) received after that time will not be valid for the scheduled meeting. For use by certificated shareholders and dematerialised shareholders who have “own name” registration of securities only. Dematerialised shareholders should promptly provide their voting instructions directly to their CSDP or broker. How to complete this proxy form If you are unable to attend the Annual General Meeting to be held in Perth on Thursday 10 November 2022 at 10:00 am (Perth time), you are encouraged to appoint a person or body corporate who will attend as your proxy and exercise your right to vote your shares. If you appoint a body corporate as your proxy, the body corporate should appoint a person as its representative at the Annual General Meeting in accordance with section 250D of the Corporations Act 2001. If your named proxy attends the meeting but does not vote on a poll on a resolution in accordance with your directions, the Chair of the Meeting will become your proxy in respect of that resolution. Appointment of a second proxy A shareholder entitled to cast two or more votes may appoint up to two proxies (whether shareholders or not) to attend the meeting and vote. A separate proxy form should be used for each proxy appointment. Directing your proxy how to vote If you wish to direct your proxy how to vote (or to abstain from voting) on any resolution, place a mark (“X”) in the “For”, “Against” or “Abstain” box for each resolution. If you mark more than one box on a resolution, your vote on that resolution will be invalid. If you mark the “Abstain” box for a particular resolution, you are directing your proxy not to vote on your behalf and your votes will not be counted in computing the required majority. IMPORTANT NOTE: The key management personnel (‘KMP’) of BHP Group Limited (which includes each of the Directors) and their closely related parties will not be able to vote as your proxy on Items 11 and 12 unless you tell them how to vote or, if the Chair of the Meeting is your proxy, you expressly authorise him to vote even though Items 11 and 12 are connected with the remuneration of the KMP. If you intend to appoint a member of the KMP as your proxy, you can direct them to vote for or against or to abstain from voting on Items 11 and 12 by marking the appropriate boxes on the proxy form. Signing Instructions You must sign this proxy form as follows in the spaces provided: Individual: Where the holding is in one name, the proxy form must be signed by the shareholder or the shareholder’s attorney. Joint holding: Where the holding is in more than one name, all of the shareholders should sign.

If you have not previously lodged this document for notation, please attach a certified photocopy of the Power of Attorney to this proxy form when you return it.

Otherwise this proxy form must be signed by a Director jointly with either another Director or a Company Secretary. Please indicate the office held by signing in the appropriate place.

This form may be obtained from the Share Registrar.

Beneficial owners of ordinary shares which are dematerialised through Strate (including those who have “own name” registration) wishing to attend the Meeting in person or participate in the Meeting online should promptly contact their CSDP or broker to obtain a letter of representation to enable them to do so.
