NOTES:

1.

The Company is pleased that all resolutions were supported at today's Annual General Meeting. The Board notes that Resolution 3 for the approval of the Directors' Remuneration Policy, and associated Resolution 4 for the approval of the TGG Incentive Plan, were opposed by more than 20% of voting shareholders, which the Board understands relates to the introduction of the new TGG Incentive Plan. The Remuneration Committee carried out an extensive engagement process on the changes to the remuneration structure ahead of the publication of the Notice of AGM, including direct consultation with over 54% of the shareholder base. Their feedback and guidance was taken on board in shaping the proposals.

The Remuneration Committee firmly believes that the new TGG Incentive Plan will enable the Company to retain key talent by providing management with greater visibility over long-term remuneration outcomes in a very challenging market, whilst ensuring alignment with our strategic objectives and a "pay for performance" ethos. Although the majority of shareholders voted in favour of the new arrangements, the Board notes the concerns raised by some shareholders and will reflect on feedback received. The Board intends to engage with shareholders in due course to further understand their views. We will provide an update within six months as required by the UK Corporate Governance Code.

The Board also recognises that Resolution 11 for the re-election of Richard Stables as a Director was opposed by more than 20% of voting shareholders. The Board understands that this is primarily due to perceived independence concerns, but intends to engage with shareholders in due course to further understand their views. Again, we will provide an update within six months of the date of today's meeting.

2.

Proxy appointments which gave discretion to the Chairman of the AGM have been included in the "For" total for the appropriate resolution.

3.

Votes "For" and "Against" any resolution are expressed as a percentage of votes validly cast for that resolution.

4.

A "Vote withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the percentage of shares voted "For" or "Against" any resolution nor in the calculation of the proportion of "Total issued share capital instructed" for any resolution.

5.

The number of shares in issue at 6:00 p.m. on 7 May 2024 was 179,149,727 (the "Share Capital") and at that time, the Company did not hold any Ordinary shares in treasury. The Company holds 48,050 non-voting Deferred Ordinary shares of £1 each in treasury.

6.

The proportion of "Total issued share capital instructed" for any resolution is the total of votes validly cast for that resolution (i.e. the total votes "For" and "Against" that resolution) expressed as a percentage of the Share Capital.

7.

The full text of the resolutions passed at the AGM can be found in the Notice of Annual General Meeting which is available on the Company's website at www.tggplc.com.

8.

A copy of resolutions 16 - 20 passed at the AGM will shortly be submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will be available for inspection at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism.

9.

The complete poll results will be available shortly on the Company's website at www.tggplc.com.
