*A vote withheld is not a vote in law and is therefore not counted towards the proportion of votes "for" or "against" the Resolution.

** including discretionary votes.

The Company notes that the quantum and duration of the authority to allot an unlimited number of shares sought under Resolution 13 is outside of acceptable norms for shareholders, and noting the significant number of votes received against it, commits to seeking an appropriate level of authority at the next AGM.

The full text of the Special Resolutions is noted below:

Resolution 14

That, in substitution for any existing disapplication authority in force as at the date of this Annual General Meeting, the Directors be and are hereby generally and unconditionally authorised to allot, issue and/or sell equity securities for cash as if article 6.2 of the Articles of Incorporation did not apply to any such allotment, issue and/or  sale, provided that this power shall be limited to the allotment, issue and/or sale of up to 10 per cent. of the Ordinary Shares in issue as at the date of this Annual General Meeting for the period expiring at the date falling 15  months after the date of the passing of this resolution or the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company, whichever is earlier (unless previously renewed, varied or revoked by the Company in a general meeting), save that the Company shall be entitled to make offers or agreements before the expiry of such power which would or might require equity securities to be allotted and issued after such expiry and the Directors shall be entitled to allot and issue equity securities pursuant to any such offer or agreement as if the power conferred hereby had not expired.

Resolution 15

That, in addition to any existing authorities granted to the Directors, the Directors be, and hereby are, empowered to allot, issue and/or sell equity securities for cash as if article 6.2 of the Articles of Incorporation did not apply to any such allotment, issue and/or sale, provided that this power shall be limited to the allotment, issue and/or sale of up to an additional 10 per cent. of the Ordinary Shares in issue as at the date of this Annual General Meeting for the period expiring at the date falling 15 months after the date of the passing of this resolution or the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company, whichever is earlier (unless previously renewed, varied or revoked by the Company in general meeting), save that the Company shall be entitled to make offers or agreements before the expiry of such power which would or might require equity securities to be allotted and issued after such expiry and the Directors shall be entitled to allot and issue equity securities pursuant to any such offer or agreement as if the power conferred hereby had not expired.
