*Please note that 'vote withheld' is not a vote under English law and is not counted in the calculation of votes 'for' or 'against' a resolution, or in the 'votes cast as a percentage of issued share capital'.

The Board has considered the results of the AGM today and notes the level of votes cast against Resolution 14, which authorises the Directors to allot shares up to a value of approximately one third of the issued share capital. It is standard market practice for UK listed companies to retain this type of authority and the amount sought under this resolution is lower than the maximum recommended levels contained within the UK Investment Association's share capital management guidelines.

The results of the vote on Resolution 14 were primarily driven by one major shareholder and, following the outcome of today's vote, we will continue our engagement with them and provide the required updates in-line with the requirements of the UK Governance Code.

The issued share capital of the Company comprises 553,060,741 shares. Resolutions 16, 17, 18 and 19 were passed as special resolutions.

The Company has sent copies of the resolutions passed at the AGM, other than those concerning ordinary business, and the new Articles of Association to the FCA's National Storage Mechanism and they are available for inspection at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism

Details of proxy votes lodged will be available shortly on the Company's website at https://www.jupiteram.com/investor-relations/
