Notes

1.    Any proxy appointments which gave discretion to the Chair have been
included in the "for" total.

2.    A "vote withheld" is not a vote under English law and is not counted
in the calculation of the proportion of the votes "for" and "against" a
resolution.

3.    Discretionary proxy votes lodged in favour of a third party have not
been included in the "for", "against" or "total" figures.

4.    At the date of the AGM the Company's issued share capital consists of
30,258,194 ordinary shares, carrying one vote each. 765,098 ordinary shares
are held in treasury. These shares are not taken into consideration in
relation to voting. Therefore, the total voting rights in the Company are
30,258,194.

In accordance with paragraph 9.6.2 of the Listing Rules, a copy of the
resolutions passed as special business will be submitted as soon as
practicable to the National Storage Mechanism and will be available shortly
for inspection at  https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism
