NOTES TO THE FORM OF PROXY

  1. You may appoint one or more proxies of your own choice, to exercise any of your rights to attend and to speak and vote on your behalf at the meeting. If such an appointment is made, delete the words "the Chairman of the meeting" and insert the name(s) of the person or persons appointed as proxy/proxies in the space provided. A proxy need not be a member of the Company. If no name is entered, the return of this form duly signed will authorise the Chairman of the meeting to act as your proxy.

  2. 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 the number of shares in relation to which they are authorised to act as your proxy. If this box is left blank, your proxy will be deemed to be authorised in respect of your full voting entitlement (or if this proxy form has been issued in respect of a designated account for a shareholder, the full voting entitlement for that designated account).

  3. You 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 shareholder. To appoint more than one proxy (an) additional proxy form(s) may be obtained from our website at www.helical.co.uk, by contacting the Company's registrars' helpline (0871 664 0300 or +44 371 664 0300 if calling from overseas) or you may photocopy this form. Please indicate in the box next to the proxy holder's name the number of shares in relation to which they are authorised to act as your proxy. 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.

  4. To direct your proxy how to vote on the resolutions mark the appropriate box with an "X". If no voting indication is given, your proxy will vote or abstain from voting at his or her discretion. Your proxy will vote (or abstain from voting) as he or she thinks fit in relation to any other matter which is put before the meeting.

  5. In order that this form of proxy shall be valid, it must be deposited (together with any power of attorney or other authority under which it is signed or a notarially certified copy of such power or a copy certified in accordance with the Powers of Attorney Act 1971 or in some other manner approved by the directors) at the Company's registrars Link Asset Services, PXS 1, The Registry, 34 Beckenham Road, Beckenham, Kent, BR3 4TU using the enclosed pre-paid envelope, or at www.signalshares.com (this website can only be used for the purpose stated above, not for sending any other document or information) or, if you are a CREST member, by using the service provided by Euroclear you can register your proxy vote electronically and in all cases by no later than 11.30 a.m. on 10 July 2018. A proxy form lodged electronically will be invalid unless it is lodged at the electronic address specified in this note 5. The completion and return of a form of proxy (or "Crest Proxy Instruction" as described in the Notice of Annual General Meeting for the meeting) will not, however, preclude shareholders from attending and voting in person at the meeting or at any adjournment thereof, should they wish to do so.

  6. In the case of a corporation, this form of proxy must be executed under its common seal or under the hand of a duly authorised officer or attorney, stating their capacity (e.g. director, secretary).

  7. In the case of joint holders of a share, any one holder may sign or electronically register the proxy, but the vote of the senior who votes 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 in respect of the share. In any event, the names of all joint holders should be stated on the proxy form.

  8. The "vote withheld" option is provided to enable you to instruct your proxy not to vote on any particular resolution. However, it should be noted that a "vote withheld" in this way is not a vote in law and will not be counted in the calculation of the proportion of votes "for" and "against" a resolution.
