The number of ordinary shares in issue at the date of this announcement is 8,000,858, of which 102,483 ordinary shares are held in treasury. As at the date of this announcement the Company's total voting rights therefore comprises 7,898,375 shares with one vote each.

 

For the purposes of section 341 of the Companies Act 2006, the votes validly cast are expressed in the table above as a percentage of the Company's total voting rights as at the close of business on 7 March 2024 (7,898,375), being the time at which a shareholder had to be registered in the register of members in order to attend and vote at the AGM. A vote "withheld" is not a vote in law and has not been counted as a vote "for" or "against" a resolution.

 

The Company instructs J.P. Morgan Securities plc to act as its broker in respect of its market purchase transactions. The Company may utilise the authority to purchase shares by either a single purchase or a series of purchases when market conditions allow when they are trading at a discount to the underlying net asset value per share, with the aim of maximising the benefit to shareholders. This proposal does not indicate that the Company will purchase shares at any particular time or price, nor imply any opinion on the part of the Directors as to the market or other value of the Company's shares. This arrangement is in accordance with Chapter 12 of the Financial Conduct Authority's Listing Rules and the Company's general authority to repurchase shares.
