There were no restrictions on shareholders to cast votes on any of the
resolutions proposed at the AGM. Votes withheld are not votes in law and
therefore have not been counted in the calculation of the proportion of the
votes for and against a resolution.

As at 18:30 (UK time) on 28 April 2025, the number of voting shares of the
Company was 2,408,021,702 Ordinary shares, which was the total number of
shares entitling the holders to attend and vote 'for' or 'against' all the
resolutions at the AGM. In accordance with the Company's Articles of
Association, on a poll, every member present in person or by proxy has one
vote for every share held.
