 with the authority granted by shareholders at the Company's 2024 Annual
 General Meeting ("AGM") and renewed by them at the Company's 2025 AGM, held
 today, in accordance with the agreement entered into with Barclays, as
 announced on 5 December 2024.

           Date of purchase: 14 May 2025

           Aggregate number of ordinary shares purchased: 260,000

           Highest price paid per share: GBP 8.8020
