In accordance with the Company's articles of association, on a poll every member present in person or by proxy had one vote for every share held.

Pursuant to UK Listing Rule 9.6.2R, copies of all resolutions, other than those concerning ordinary business, passed at the AGM today will be submitted to and available for inspection at the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available to view at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism.
