Group in November 2022 (the "Statement of Principles") and the Directors
believe that this resolution is appropriate in order to maintain flexibility
to allot additional securities within the circumstances contemplated by the
terms of the resolution and the Statement of Principles. In accordance with
provision 4 of the UK Corporate Governance Code (the "Code"), the Board
confirms that it will engage with shareholders to understand and discuss the
reasons behind the votes received against this resolution. An update on the
views received from shareholders and actions taken will be provided within six
months of the Annual General Meeting, in accordance with the Code.
