2024 AGM Voting Results Update Statement

In accordance with Provision 4 of the UK Corporate Governance Code, the
Company today provides an update in respect of the results of its Annual
General Meeting (AGM) held on 11 October 2024, where resolution 9 (to disapply
pre-emption rights on the issue of Ordinary shares) was passed with the
necessary majority but with more than 20% of votes cast against the resolution
by shareholders.

The Company notes that, whilst the number of votes cast against the resolution
represented 20.8% of the total votes cast, due to low shareholder engagement
the number of votes against this resolution was 160,000 Ordinary shares,
representing 0.7% of the issued share capital at the time of the AGM. The
Company has sought to identify the dissenting shareholders in order to discuss
their concerns; however, the shares are held via investment platforms and, as
such, it has not been possible to identify the specific underlying beneficial
holders that voted against the resolution.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board welcomes engagement with shareholders
and invites questions or concerns to be raised via the Company Secretary in
the first instance at cosec-uk@apexgroup.com
