Notes:

  • 1. The latest total voting rights of the Company of 1,789,556,677 were disclosed on 29 March 2018 and were unchanged at the time of convening the AGM.
  • 2. Pursuant to sections 176(3) and 178(4) of the Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008, ordinary and special resolutions of the members are passed on a show of hands if passed by members who vote in person and by persons who vote as duly appointed proxies of members entitled to vote. Accordingly, this means that resolutions are passed by the requisite majority of votes cast at the AGM, not as a majority of the total voting rights.
  • 3. Ordinary resolutions are passed if more than half (50%) of votes are cast in favour of the resolution.
  • 4. A vote withheld is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the proportion of votes "for" and "against" a particular resolution.
  • 5. Special resolutions are passed if more than 75% of votes are cast in favour of the resolution.
