i)* A vote withheld is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation
of the proportion of votes for and against resolutions.

ii) Any votes that give discretion to the Chair have been included in the
"For" total.

iii) At close of business on 14 May 2025 there were 32,971,713 shares in
issue.

 

The Board welcomes the majority support from shareholders in passing these
resolutions and takes the outcome of shareholder votes very seriously, noting
the more than 20% who voted against. As previously announced, since the AGM in
September 2024, the Remuneration Committee has carried out a comprehensive
consultation exercise with the Company's major shareholders (who, in
aggregate, hold over 56% of the Ordinary Shares in issue) via a series of
meetings to understand their views on the Company's remuneration practices and
policy. Given this recent comprehensive exercise, which resulted in the
passing of the resolutions today, the Company is not proposing to undertake
such an extensive consultation in respect of the outcome of this recent vote,
but the Company will continue to engage and have dialogue with shareholders in
respect of the Company's remuneration practices going forward.

 

In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2, copies of the resolutions passed as
special business of the meeting will be uploaded to the National Storage
Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection at
www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/NSM (http://www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/NSM) .
