Notes:

1.   Proxy Results are taken from the 27 valid Forms of Proxies received.

2.   Any proxy appointments giving discretion to the Chairman of the Meeting have been included in the "For" total.

3.   A vote "Withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the votes "For" or "Against" a resolution.

4.   The Company's total ordinary shares in issue (total voting rights) as at 6 November 2019 were 137,557,079. Ordinary shareholders are entitled to one vote per ordinary share held.

5.   Due to an error in the numbering, there is no resolution 11.

6.   As the Company has a controlling shareholder, Dr Polonsky CBE, as defined in the Financial Conduct Authority's Listing Rules, resolution 7 to elect Mr Easton (an independent non-executive director) has under Listing Rule 9.2.2E been approved by a majority of the votes cast by:

(a) the shareholders of the Company as a whole; and

(b) the independent shareholders of the Company, that is, all the shareholders entitled to vote on each resolution, excluding the controlling shareholder.

7.   In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2, a copy of resolution 13 (special business) has been submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection at http://www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/NSM.
