Explanatory notes relating to the completion of the Form of Proxy

  • 1 Only holders of ordinary shares, or their duly appointed representatives, are entitled to attend, speak and vote at the Meeting. A member so entitled may appoint one or more proxies, who need not be a member, to attend, speak and vote on his/her behalf.
  • 2 If you wish to appoint someone other than the Chairman of the Meeting as your proxy, please insert his/her name and delete 'the Chairman of the Meeting or'.
  • 3 To appoint more than one proxy, you may copy this form or (an) additional proxy form(s) may be obtained by contacting the Company's Registrar, Equiniti, on 0871 384 2132 (for calls made from the UK. Calls to this number cost 8 pence per minute plus network extras. Lines open 8.30am to 5.30pm, Monday to Friday) or +44 (0) 121 415 7034 (for calls made from outside the UK). Please indicate in the box next to the proxy holder's name the number of shares in relation to which he/she is authorised to act as your proxy. Please also indicate by ticking the additional box provided if the proxy instruction is one of multiple instructions being given. All forms must be signed and should be returned to Equiniti together in the reply paid envelope provided.
  • 4 Please indicate with an 'X' in the boxes provided how you wish your vote to be cast. Unless otherwise instructed, the person appointed as proxy will exercise his/her discretion as to how he/she votes or whether he/she withholds a vote on any particular resolution and on any other business (including amendments to resolutions and any procedural business), which may come before the Meeting.
  • 5 The 'Withheld' option on the Form of Proxy is provided to enable you to abstain on any particular resolution. However, a vote withheld is not a vote in law and will not be counted in the calculation of the proportion of votes 'For' and 'Against' a resolution.

  • 6 A corporation must seal the Form of Proxy or have it signed by an officer, an attorney or another person authorised to sign it.

  • 7 In the case of joint holders, only one need sign the Form of Proxy, but the vote of the senior holder who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy, will be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint holder(s). For this purpose, seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names stand in the Register of Members in respect of the joint holding.
  • 8 To be valid the Form of Proxy must reach the Company's Registrar, Equiniti, by no later than 11.00am on Wednesday, 22 May 2013 or, if the Meeting is adjourned, 48 hours before the time of the adjourned Meeting. The appointment of a proxy does not prevent a member from attending the Meeting and voting in person.
  • 9 Electronic Proxy Appointment ('EPA') is available for this Meeting. To use this facility you must visit www.sharevote.co.uk where details of the procedure are shown. The Voting ID, Task ID and Shareholder Reference Number shown below will be required to complete the procedure. EPA will not be valid if received after 11.00am on Wednesday, 22 May 2013 or, if the Meeting is adjourned, 48 hours before the time of the adjourned Meeting. EPA will not be accepted if found to contain a computer virus.
  • 10 The CREST electronic proxy appointment service is available for this Meeting.
