      be called on not less than 14 clear days' notice

 

*Resolutions 13 to 15 were passed as special resolutions. Copies of
resolutions 11 to 15 will be filed at Companies House.

 

Shareholders are entitled to one vote per share. Votes withheld are not a vote
in law and are therefore not counted in the calculation of the percentages of
the votes cast for and against a resolution. Where shareholders appointed the
Chair as their proxy with discretion as to voting, their votes were cast in
favour of the resolutions and their shares have been included in the "votes
for" column.

 

The total issued share capital consists of 41,383,817 ordinary shares
of £0.25 each, which includes 9,480,983 ordinary shares held in treasury.
Treasury shares do not carry voting rights, therefore the total number voting
rights in the Company is 31,902,834.

 

In accordance with UKLR 6.4.2, a copy of the resolutions passed, other than
the resolutions concerning ordinary business, at today's AGM will be submitted
to the National Storage Mechanism and will be available for inspection
at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism
(https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism) .

 

The proxy votes lodged with the Company's Registrar will shortly be available
via the Company's web pages at International Biotechnology Trust plc - IBT
