EXPLANATORY NOTES

• 1. As a shareholder you are entitled to attend the Annual General Meeting (the AGM) of the Company. If you are unable to attend you are entitled to appoint someone else as your proxy, to attend, speak and vote on your behalf on the poll. The Chairman will be appointed as your proxy unless you write another proxy's name in the space provided. A proxy need not be a Company shareholder. You may appoint more than one proxy provided that each proxy is appointed to exercise rights attaching to different shares.
• A proxy must vote as you have instructed. Please indicate for each resolution how you wish your proxy to vote by placing a cross in the relevant box in black ink. If you do not tell your proxy how to vote, your proxy may abstain or cast his/her vote as he/she thinks fit on the resolutions or any other business at the meeting. Please note that the "Withheld" option is provided to enable you to abstain on any particular resolution. However, it should be noted that a vote "Withheld" is not a vote in law, which means that your vote will not be counted in the calculation of votes "For" or "Against" the resolution.
• 1. If this form of proxy is signed by someone else on your behalf, their authority must also be returned with the form. In case of joint holdings, any one holder may sign this form; however, the vote of the first named in the register of shareholders will be accepted to the exclusion of other joint holders. In the case of a corporation, the form of proxy must be executed under its common seal under the hand of a duly authorised officer or attorney. Even if you complete and return the form of proxy, you may still attend the meeting and vote in person should you later decide to do so. Any alterations made to this form should be initialled.

• 1. To be effective this form of proxy must be lodged at the office of the Company's registrar not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for holding the meeting, or any adjournment thereof, together, if appropriate, with the power of attorney or other authority under which it is signed or a notarially certified or office copy of such authority.
• 1. Every holder has the right to appoint some other person(s) of their choice, who need not be a shareholder as his proxy to exercise all or any of his rights, to attend, speak and vote on their behalf at the meeting. If you wish to appoint a person other than the Chairman, please insert the name of your chosen proxy holder in the space provided. If the proxy is being appointed in relation to less than your full voting entitlement, please enter in the box next to the proxy holder's name the number of shares in relation to which they are authorised to act as your proxy. If left blank your proxy will be deemed to be authorised in respect of your full voting entitlement (or if the proxy form has been issued in respect of a designated account for a shareholder, the full voting entitlement for that designated account).
• 1. To appoint more than one proxy, (an) additional proxy form(s) may be obtained by contacting the Registrars helpline on 0871 384 2274* or you may photocopy this form. Please indicate in the box next to the proxy holder's name the number of shares in relation to which they are authorised to act as your proxy. Failure to specify the number of shares each proxy appointment relates to or specifying a number of shares in excess of those held by a shareholder on the record date for the meeting will result in the proxy appointments being invalid.
