In accordance with the Company’s Articles of Association and subject to the Listing Rules, on a poll every member who is present in person or by proxy has one vote for every share held.
  2. The scrutineer of the poll was Computershare Investor Services PLC, the Company’s Share Registrar.
  3. Note that a “vote withheld” is not a vote in law and such votes have not been included in the calculation of votes “for” and “against” each resolution. Proxy appointments which gave discretion to the Chairman have been included in the “for” total above.

In accordance with LR 9.6.2, a copy of the resolution has been submitted to the FCA’s National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available to view at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism
