Explanatory notes
-
- Every holder has the right to appoint some other person(s) of their choice, who need not be a shareholder, as his or her proxy to exercise all or any of his or her rights to attend, speak and vote on their behalf at the meeting. If you wish to appoint a proxy, please complete, sign and return the form of proxy (see reverse) after carefully reading the form of proxy and the instructions below. If you wish to appoint a person other than the Chairman, please insert the name of your chosen proxy holder in the space provided (see reverse). If the proxy is being appointed in relation to less than your full voting entitlement, please enter in the box next to the proxy holder's name (see reverse) the number of shares in relation to which they are authorised to act as your proxy. If left blank your proxy will be deemed to be authorised in respect of your full voting entitlement (or if this form of proxy has been issued in respect of a designated account for a shareholder, the full voting entitlement for that designated account).
-
- To appoint more than one proxy, you may photocopy this form. Please indicate in the box next to the proxy holder's name (see reverse) the number of shares in relation to which they are authorised to act as your proxy. If more than one proxy is to be appointed then each proxy must be appointed to exercise the rights attached to a different share or shares held by you. Please also indicate by ticking the box provided if the proxy instruction is one of multiple instructions being given. All forms must be signed and should be returned together in the same envelope (see note 15 for address).
-
- The 'Vote Withheld' option overleaf is provided to enable you to instruct your proxy or proxies to abstain on any particular resolution. However, 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 the votes 'For' and 'Against' a resolution.
-
- If this form of proxy is signed by someone else on your behalf, their authority to sign must be returned with this form of proxy. Where the appointer is a corporation this form of proxy must be executed by the corporation under its common seal, or executed under the hand of an agent or officer, duly authorised in writing. 5. In the absence of any instruction, the proxy will vote or abstain on the resolutions at his or her discretion as to whether, and if so how, he or she votes. On any other
- business arising at the meeting (including any motion to amend a resolution or adjourn the meeting) the proxy will act at his or her discretion. 6. Pursuant to regulation 41 of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001, entitlement to attend and vote at the meeting and the number of votes which may be
- cast thereat will be determined by reference to the Register of Members of the Company at 6:00pm on the day which is two days (excluding any non-working day) before the day of the meeting or adjourned meeting. Changes to entries on the Register of Members after that time shall be disregarded in determining the rights of any person to attend and vote at the meeting.
-
- CREST members who wish to appoint a proxy or proxies through the CREST electronic proxy appointment service may do so by using the procedures described in the CREST Manual (available via www.euroclear.com). 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 sponsor or voting service provider(s), who will be able to take the appropriate action on their behalf.
-
- In order for a proxy appointment or instruction made using the CREST service to be valid, the appropriate CREST message (a "CREST Proxy Instruction") must be properly authenticated in accordance with Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited's specifications, and must contain the information required for such instruction, as described in the CREST Manual (available via www.euroclear.com). The message, regardless of whether it constitutes the appointment of a proxy or is an amendment to the instruction given to a previously appointed proxy must, in order to be valid, be transmitted so as to be received by the issuer's agent (ID number RA 19) by 10.00 am on Thursday 26 March 2015. For this purpose, the time of receipt will be taken to be the time (as determined by the time stamp applied to the message by the CREST Applications Host) from which the issuer's agent is able to retrieve the message by enquiry to CREST in the manner prescribed by CREST. After this time any change of instructions to proxies appointed through CREST should be communicated to the appointee through other means.
-
- CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors, or voting service providers should note that Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited does not make available special procedures in CREST for any particular message. 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, to procure that his 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 system providers are referred, in particular, to those sections of the CREST Manual concerning practical limitations of the CREST system and timings.
-

In the case of joint holders anyone of them may sign, but if more than one holder votes, the vote of the one whose name appears first on the Register of Members shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint holders.
-
- If you submit more than one valid proxy appointment, the appointment received last before the latest time for the receipt of proxies will take precedence.
