When you have completed and signed this form, please return it in the envelope provided to the company's registrars, Capita Registrars, at Capita Registrars (Proxies) 34 Beckenham Road, Beckenham, Kent, BR3 4TU.
TO BE VALID, THE PROXY FORM MUST BE RECEIVED AT LEAST 48 HOURS BEFORE THE TIME APPOINTED FOR THE MEETING OR ADJOURNED MEETING
A member or other person entitled to attend and vote is entitled to appoint one or more proxies to attend, speak and vote instead of him. A proxy need not be a member of the company. The following are instructions for use of the form. If you do not come to the meeting and do not appoint a proxy you cannot vote on the resolutions.
A) Your proxy. You can appoint the Chairman of the meeting or any other person to be your proxy. For convenience, the appointment of the Chairman has already been included and, if you wish the Chairman to cast your vote, you need not make any changes to the form.
If you wish to appoint anybody other than the Chairman as your proxy, you should cross out the words "the Chairman of the meeting" and write in the space provided the name and address of your proxy. If you wish your proxy to make comments on your behalf you will need to appoint someone other than the Chairman and give them instructions directly.
B) Multiple proxies. You may appoint one or more proxies of your choice to attend, vote and speak at the meeting and any adjournment thereof, provided each proxy is appointed to exercise rights in respect of different shares. To appoint more than one proxy (an) additional form(s) may be obtained by contacting the company's registrars or you may photocopy this page indicating on each copy the name of the proxy you wish to appoint and the number of shares in respect of which the proxy is appointed. All forms must be signed and should be returned to Capita Registrars in the same envelope.
C) The resolutions. Details of the resolutions are contained in the accompanying notice. The resolutions on the proxy form are numbered in the same order as in the notice. You can instruct your proxy how to vote on each resolution. Tick the appropriate box next to each resolution to show whether your proxy is to vote for, against or withhold the vote.
D) Vote Withheld. A "vote withheld" option is provided to enable a shareholder to withhold their vote on any particular resolution. It should be noted that a vote withheld is not a vote in law and will not be counted in the calculation of the proportion of votes "for" or "against" a resolution.
E) Your signature. You must sign and date the proxy form in the space provided. If the form is signed by someone else on your behalf, their authority to sign the form must be returned together with the form.
If the appointer is a corporation, the proxy form should be executed under its common seal, or signed on its behalf by a duly authorised officer or attorney. The appropriate power of attorney or other authority should be returned with the form.
In the case of joint holdings, any one holder may sign the proxy form. Seniority will be determined by the order in which names appear on the register and the vote of the senior will be accepted to the exclusion of the other joint holders.
F) The return of a completed proxy form will not preclude you from attending the meeting and voting in person if you so wish.
G) If you submit more than one valid proxy appointment in respect of the same shares, the appointment received last before the latest time for receipt of proxies will take precedence.
H) Any alterations made to this form of proxy must be initialed.
