The Board notes the significant number of votes received against Resolution 2 at the EGM, in relation to the dis-application of pre-emption rights (in respect of the allotment of shares proposed by Resolution 1).  The Board is aware of the Pre-Emption Group's views in general about the granting of certain disapplication authorities.  The Board had set out its rationale for Resolution 2 for the Company in the Extraordinary General Meeting Circular.  However, the Board notes the votes against the resolution and will continue to engage with shareholders in order to understand their views in relation to the specific authority sought.
