Notes:

1.    Any proxy arrangement which gave discretion to the Chairman has been included in the "for" totals.

2.    A "Vote withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the percentage of shares voted "For" or "Against" any resolution.

3.    The number of shares in issue at close of business on 24 April 2019 was 300,000,000 (the "Share Capital"). The Company does not hold any shares in treasury.

As previously announced on 23 January 2019 and 4 April 2019 respectively, Richard Longdon and Vivienne Maclachlan have both stepped down from the Board effective from today.  Resolution 4, related to the re-election of Ms Maclachlan, was withdrawn on the basis that it would have been ineffective had it been passed.

In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2, copies of resolutions passed at the AGM concerning items other than ordinary business will shortly be available for inspection on the National Storage Mechanism which can be accessed at  http://www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/nsm
