Notes

1.     Votes "For" and "Against" are expressed as a percentage of votes
received.

2.     A "vote withheld" is not a vote in law and is therefore not counted
towards the proportion of votes "For" or "Against" a resolution.

3.     As at 1pm on Monday 12 May 2025, the time by which shareholders who
wanted to vote at the AGM must have been entered on the Company's register of
members, there were 256,482,888 ordinary shares in issue. 77.07% of the voting
capital was instructed, as set out in the table above. Shareholders are
entitled to one vote per share.

 

In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2R, copies of all the resolutions passed
other than resolutions concerning ordinary business have been submitted to the
National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection at the
National Storage Mechanism.
