Shareholders are entitled to one vote per share. Votes withheld are not a vote in law and are therefore not counted in the calculation of the percentages of the votes cast for and against a resolution.
The total number of ordinary shares of US$0.01 each in issue is 175,684,705. The total number of voting rights is 175,684,705.
The Board acknowledges there was a significant minority vote (being just over 20 per cent.) against Resolutions 1, 2 and 3. The Board will continue to seek to engage with shareholders to discuss any views they may have and will take into account any feedback around their concerns.
