14.2 the allotment (otherwise than pursuant to paragraph 14.1 above) of equity securities up to an aggregate nominal value not exceeding £103,567,

and this power, unless renewed, shall expire at the end of the next Annual General Meeting of the Company after the passing of this resolution but shall extend to the making, before such expiry, of an offer or agreement which would or might require equity securities to be allotted after such expiry and the Directors may allot equity securities in pursuance of such offer or agreement as if the authority conferred hereby had not expired.

• 1. THAT the Company be and is hereby generally and unconditionally authorised for the purpose of Section 701 of the Companies Act 2006 (the "Act") to make market purchases (as defined in Section 693 of the Act) of ordinary shares of 1 pence each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares") provided that:
• 15.1 the maximum number of Ordinary Shares hereby authorised to be purchased is 20,713,426;

• 15.4 the authority hereby conferred shall (unless previously renewed or revoked) expire on the earlier of the end of the next Annual General Meeting of the Company and the date which is 18 months after the date on which this resolution is passed; and
• 15.5 the Company may make a contract to purchase its own Ordinary Shares under the authority conferred by this resolution prior to the expiry of such authority, and such contract will or may be executed wholly or partly after the expiry of such authority, and the Company may make a purchase of its own Ordinary Shares in pursuance of any such contract.
• 1. THAT a general meeting of the Company other than an Annual General Meeting may be called on not less than 14 clear days' notice, provided that this authority expires at the conclusion of the Company's next Annual General Meeting after the date of the passing of this resolution.

Notes to Notice

• (i) A member entitled to attend and vote at the meeting convened by the above Notice (the "Meeting") is entitled to appoint a proxy to exercise all or any of the rights of the member to attend and speak and vote on his or her behalf. A proxy need not be a member of the Company. A member may appoint more than one proxy in relation to the Meeting, provided that each proxy is appointed to exercise the rights attached to a different share or shares held by that member. The right to appoint a proxy does not apply to any person to whom this notice is sent who is a person nominated under Section 146 of the Companies Act 2006 (the "Act") to enjoy information rights (a "Nominated Person").
• (ii) To appoint a proxy you may:
• (a) use the proxy form enclosed with this Notice of Annual General Meeting. To be valid, the proxy form, together with the power of attorney or other authority (if any) under which it is signed or a notarially certified or office copy of the same, must be received by post or (during normal business hours only) by hand at Capita Asset Services, PXS, The Registry, 34 Beckenham Road, Beckenham, Kent BR3 4TU, in each case no later than 12.00 noon on 17 March 2015 or not later than 48 hours before the time fixed for any adjourned meeting (as an alternative you may appoint a proxy electronically at www.capitashareportal.com); or

(b) if you hold your shares in uncertificated form, use the CREST electronic proxy appointment service as described in notes (vi), (vii) and (viii) below.

Completion of the proxy form or appointment of a proxy through CREST will not prevent a member from attending and voting in person.

You may submit your vote electronically at www.capitashareportal.com not later than 48 hours before the time fixed for the Meeting or adjourned meeting at which your proxy proposes to vote.

• (iii) Any member or his or her proxy attending the Meeting has the right to ask any question at the Meeting relating to the business of the Meeting.
• (iv) Pursuant to Section 360B of the Act and Regulation 41 of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001 (as amended), only shareholders registered in the register of members of the Company as at 6.00pm on 17 March 2015 shall be entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting in respect of the number of shares registered in their name at such time. If the Meeting is adjourned, the time by which a person must be entered on the register of members of the Company in order to have the right to attend and vote at the adjourned Meeting is 6.00pm on the day preceding the date fixed for the adjourned Meeting. Changes to the register of members after the relevant times shall be disregarded in determining the rights of any person to attend and vote at the Meeting.
• (v) In the case of joint holders, the vote of the senior holder who tenders a vote whether in person or by proxy shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint holders and, for this purpose, seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names stand in the register of members of the Company in respect of the relevant joint holding.
• (vi) CREST members who wish to appoint a proxy or proxies by utilising the CREST electronic proxy appointment service may do so by using the procedures described in the CREST Manual. CREST personal members or other CREST sponsored members, and those CREST members who have appointed a voting service provider(s), should refer to their CREST sponsors or voting service provider(s), who will be able to take the appropriate action on their behalf.
• (vii) In order for a proxy appointment made by means of CREST to be valid, the appropriate CREST message (a "CREST Proxy Instruction") must be properly authenticated in accordance with the specifications of Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited ("Euroclear UK & Ireland") and must contain the information required for such instructions, as described in the CREST Manual. The message must be transmitted so as to be received by the Company's agent, Capita Asset Services (CREST participant ID RA10), by the latest time(s) for receipt of proxy appointments specified in the notice of meeting. For this purpose, the time of receipt will be taken to be the time (as determined by the timestamp applied to the message by the CREST Application Host) from which the Company's agent is able to retrieve the message by enquiry to CREST in the manner prescribed by CREST.
• (viii) CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors and voting service providers should note that Euroclear UK & Ireland does not make available special procedures in CREST for any particular messages. Normal system timings and limitations will therefore apply in relation to the input of CREST Proxy Instructions. It is the responsibility of the CREST member concerned to take (or, if the CREST member is a CREST personal member or sponsored member or has appointed a voting service provider(s), to procure that his or her CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s) take(s)) such action as shall be necessary to ensure that a message is transmitted by means of the CREST system by any particular time. In this connection, CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers are referred, in particular, to those sections of the CREST Manual concerning practical limitations of the CREST system and timings. The Company may treat as invalid a CREST Proxy Instruction in the circumstances set out in Regulation 35(5)(a) of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001 (as amended).

Explanatory notes to resolutions

Resolution 3 – Confirmation of Deloitte LLP as auditors

In accordance with best practice, the Audit Committee undertook a competitive tender process for the audit of the Company and its subsidiaries for the year ending 31 October 2014. Since the resignation of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, Deloitte LLP has filled a casual vacancy in the office of auditor under Section 489 of the Companies Act 2006 (the "Act"). The Directors propose the appointment of Deloitte LLP at the Annual General Meeting (the "Meeting") until the conclusion of the next general meeting at which accounts are laid.

Resolutions 6–11 – Re-election of Alan Lewis, Keith Edelman, Frederic Vecchioli, Andy Jones and Ian Krieger and the election of Joanne Kenrick as a Director (ordinary resolutions)

Adrian Martin will be retiring at the end of the Meeting and is, therefore, not standing for re-election. The UK Corporate Governance Code and the Company's Articles of Association require that a Director appointed during the preceding year should be subject to election at the Company's next Annual General Meeting. Accordingly, Joanne Kenrick is standing for election as a Director at the Meeting. In addition, under the Company's Articles of Association, one-third of the Directors (other than newly appointed Directors) are to retire from office and offer themselves for re-election. Further, notwithstanding the fact that the Company is not a FTSE 350 company, for this Annual General Meeting, for the sake of good corporate governance, it has been decided that the entire Board (and not just one-third of the Board) will be put up for re-election and therefore Alan Lewis, Keith Edelman, Frederic Vecchioli, Andy Jones and Ian Krieger will stand for re-election to the Board. Resolutions 6–11 (inclusive) propose their re-election and Joanne Kenrick's election as Directors. The election and re-election of Directors will take effect at the conclusion of the Meeting.

Resolution 12 – Political donations and political expenditure (ordinary resolution)

Resolution 12 seeks to renew the authority granted at last year's Annual General Meeting for the Company to make political donations to political parties, to other political organisations and to independent election candidates or to incur political expenditure.

It is not the policy of the Company or its subsidiaries to make political donations of this type and the Directors have no intention of changing that policy. However, as a result of the wide definitions in the Act of matters constituting political donations, normal expenditure (such as expenditure on organisations concerned with matters of public policy, law reform and representation of the business community) and business activities (such as communicating with the Government and political parties at local, national and European level) might be construed as political expenditure or as a donation to a political party or other political organisation and fall within the restrictions of the Act.

This resolution does not purport to authorise any particular donation or expenditure but is expressed in general terms as required by the Act and is intended to authorise normal donations and expenditure. If passed, resolution 12 would allow the Company and its subsidiaries:

(i) to make donations to political parties and/or independent election candidates up to an aggregate limit of £100,000;

(ii) to make donations to other political organisations up to an aggregate limit of £100,000; and

(iii) to incur political expenditure (as defined in the Act) up to an aggregate limit of £100,000,

during the period up to the conclusion of the next Annual General Meeting of the Company whilst avoiding inadvertent infringement of the statute. Any political donation made or political expenditure incurred which is in excess of £2,000 will be disclosed in the Company's Annual Report for next year, as required by the Act. The authority will not be used to make political donations within the normal meaning of that expression.

Resolution 12 replaces a similar authority put in place at the Annual General Meeting held on 19 March 2014. No payments were made under this authority.

Resolution 13 – Directors' authority to allot shares or grant subscription or conversion rights (ordinary resolution)

The resolution asks shareholders to grant the Directors authority under Section 551 of the Act to allot shares or grant such subscription or conversion rights as are contemplated by Sections 551(1)(a) and (b) respectively of the Act up to a maximum aggregate nominal value of £1,380,894, being approximately two-thirds of the nominal value of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company as at 13 February 2015. As at 13 February 2015, the Company did not hold any treasury shares. £690,447 of this authority is reserved for a fully pre-emptive rights issue. This is the maximum permitted amount under best practice corporate governance guidelines. The Directors consider it important to have the maximum ability and flexibility commensurate with good corporate governance guidelines to raise finance to enable the Company to respond to market developments and conditions. The Directors have no present intention of exercising such authority. The authority will expire at the next Annual General Meeting. The resolution replaces a similar resolution passed at the Annual General Meeting of the Company held on 19 March 2014.

Explanatory notes to resolutions continued

Resolution 14 – Disapplication of pre-emption rights (special resolution)

If the Directors wish to allot new shares or other equity securities for cash, the Act requires that such shares or other equity securities are offered first to existing shareholders in proportion to their existing holding. The allotment of equity securities as referred to in this resolution includes the sale of any shares which the Company holds in treasury following a purchase of its own shares. Resolution 14 asks shareholders to grant the Directors authority to allot equity securities for cash up to an aggregate nominal value of £103,567 (being 5% of the Company's issued ordinary share capital as at 13 February 2015) without first offering the securities to existing shareholders. The Directors confirm that equity securities in excess of 7.5% of the Company's issued ordinary share capital will not be issued for cash on a non pre-emptive basis over a rolling three year period without suitable advance consultation with shareholders. The resolution also disapplies the statutory pre-emption provisions in connection with a rights issue and allows the Directors, in the case of a rights issue, to make appropriate arrangements in relation to treasury shares, fractional entitlements or other legal or practical problems which might arise. The authority will expire at the next Annual General Meeting. The resolution replaces a similar resolution passed at the Annual General Meeting of the Company held on 19 March 2014.

Resolution 15 – Purchase of own shares by the Company (special resolution)

Resolution 15 to be proposed at the Annual General Meeting seeks authority from shareholders for the Company to make market purchases of its own ordinary shares of 1 pence each ("Ordinary Shares"), such authority being limited to the purchase of 10% of the Ordinary Shares in issue as at 13 February 2015. The maximum price payable for the purchase by the Company of its own Ordinary Shares will be limited to the higher of 5% above the average of the middle market quotations of the Company's Ordinary Shares, as derived from The Daily Official List of the London Stock Exchange, for the five business days prior to the purchase and the higher of the price of the last independent trade of an ordinary share and the highest current independent bid for an ordinary share as derived from the London Stock Exchange Trading System. The minimum price payable by the Company for the purchase of its own Ordinary Shares will be 1 pence per Ordinary Share (being the amount equal to the nominal value of an Ordinary Share). The authority to purchase the Company's own Ordinary Shares will only be exercised if the Directors consider that there is likely to be a beneficial impact on earnings per Ordinary Share and that it is in the best interests of the Company at the time. The resolution renews a similar resolution passed at the Annual General Meeting of the Company held on 19 March 2014. The Company will be able to hold the Ordinary Shares which have been repurchased as treasury shares and re-sell them for cash, cancel them or use them in connection with certain of its share schemes.

Options to subscribe for up to 3,079,372 Ordinary Shares have been granted and are outstanding as at 13 February 2015 (being the latest practicable date prior to publication of this document) representing 1.49% of the issued ordinary share capital at that date (excluding shares held in treasury). If the Directors were to exercise in full the power for which they are seeking authority under resolution 15, the options outstanding as at 13 February 2015 would represent 1.65% of the ordinary share capital (excluding shares held in treasury) in issue following such exercise.

Resolution 16 – Calling of general meetings (special resolution)

Resolution 16 to be proposed at the Meeting seeks authority from shareholders to hold general meetings (other than Annual General Meetings) on 14 days' clear notice. This is permissible under the existing articles of association of the Company and the Act. However, pursuant to the EU Shareholders' Rights Directive, the Company must offer the facility, accessible to all shareholders, to vote by electronic means and must obtain specific shareholder approval annually in order to retain this ability. The Directors believe that there may be circumstances in which it will be important for the Company to be able to call meetings at such short notice. The shorter notice would not be used as a matter of course, but only where it is merited by the business of the meeting and is thought to be to the advantage of shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, the Directors believe that it is important for the Company to retain this flexibility.

Directors' recommendation

The Board of Directors considers that each of the resolutions being proposed at the Annual General Meeting are in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, the Directors unanimously recommend that shareholders vote in favour of the resolutions as they intend to do in respect of their own beneficial shareholdings.
