In the event the UK Government deems the AGM to be categorised as an unlawful event due to enhanced Covid-19 restrictions being imposed and the Company is unable to notify shareholders ahead of the AGM due to the UK December Bank Holidays on 27 and 28 December 2021 then shareholders will not be permitted to attend the AGM. In this scenario voting at the AGM will be carried out by way of poll. All votes appointing a proxy will be treated as having appointed the chairman as their proxy and in this way all votes cast in advance will be taken into account.
