* indicates a Special Resolution requiring 75% of votes cast to be carried.

 

Votes "For" and "Against" are expressed as a percentage of votes cast.

 

Votes "For" include discretionary votes.

 

A "Vote withheld" is not a vote in law and is therefore not counted in the calculation of the votes "For" or "Against" a resolution.

 

Equiniti, the Company's registrar, acted as scrutineer of the poll on all resolutions.

 

To view the full wording of the resolutions, please refer to the Notice of 2023 Annual General Meeting on the Company's website.

 

In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2, copies of all the resolutions passed other than resolutions concerning ordinary business will shortly be available for inspection on the National Storage Mechanism at: https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism.

 

On Tuesday 9 May 2023, the total number of issued ordinary shares of £0.001 each entitling the holders to attend and vote on all the resolutions at the AGM was 361,303,143.
