Notes:

1.   A "vote withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the proportion of the votes "for" and "against" a resolution.

2.   The issued share capital figure used to calculate the percentage voted is 317,429,556. This is the figure as at the close of business on 28 April 2023 and excludes the number of ordinary shares held in treasury at that date.

3.   As announced on 14 April 2023, Steve Hatch had decided to step down from his role as Non-Executive Director of the Company from the close of the AGM with the consequence that the resolution to re-elect Steve Hatch as a director of the Company included as resolution 7 in the Notice of AGM was to be withdrawn.

In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.3R of the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), a copy of the resolutions passed as Special Business at the AGM have been submitted to the UK Listing Authority and will be available for public inspection at the National Storage Mechanism (NSM) https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism.
