(BST) ON MONDAY, 16 MAY 2022. ALTERNATIVELY YOU MAY SUBMIT YOUR PROXY ELECTRONICALLY NO LATER THAN 2.00 P.M. (BST) ON MONDAY, 16 MAY 2022 USING THE LINK SHARE PORTAL SERVICE AT WWW.SIGNALSHARES.COM.

Notes:

    1. Please insert your full name(s) and address(es) in BLOCK CAPITALS.
  • In the case of joint holders, the names and addresses of all the joint holders should be stated on this Form of Proxy.
    1. Shareholders entitled to attend and vote at the meeting may appoint one or more proxies (who need not be a Shareholder) to attend, speak and vote on their behalf, provided that if two or more proxies are to be appointed, each proxy must be appointed to exercise the rights attaching to different shares. Where multiple proxies have been appointed to exercise rights attached to different shares, on a show of hands those proxy holders taken together would collectively have the same number of votes as the Shareholder who appointed them would have on a show of hands if he or she were present at the meeting. On a poll, all or any of the rights of the Shareholder may be exercised by one or more duly appointed proxies. To appoint more than one proxy you may photocopy this Form of Proxy. Please indicate the proxy holder's name and the number of shares in relation to which they are authorised to act as your proxy (which, in aggregate, should not exceed the number of shares held by you). Please also indicate if the proxy instruction is one of multiple instructions given by you. All hard copy proxy appointments must be signed and should be returned together in the same envelope.
    1. Given the potential for additional COVID-19 restrictions to be imposed on short notice, the Company urges Shareholders to vote by proxy and to appoint the chairman of the meeting as their proxy for that purpose. The lodging of the Form of Proxy will not prevent you from attending the Annual General Meeting and voting in person if you so wish (subject to the status of COVID-19 restrictions on public meetings at the relevant time). If you wish to appoint as a proxy a person other than the Chairman of the meeting or the Company Secretary, please insert the name of the proxy preferred in the space provided. If no name is entered, the return of this Form of Proxy duly signed will authorise the Chairman of the meeting or the Company Secretary to act as your proxy.
    1. The completion and return of this Form of Proxy will not prevent you from attending in person and voting at the meeting should you subsequently decide to do so (subject to any COVID-19 restrictions on public meetings at the relevant time).
    1. In the absence of instructions, your proxy may vote or withhold from voting as he or she thinks fit on the specified resolutions and, unless instructed otherwise, may also vote or withhold from voting as he or she thinks fit on any other business (including on a motion to amend a resolution, to propose a new resolution or to adjourn the meeting) which may properly come before the meeting. A vote withheld is not a vote in law. If instruction is given to withhold from voting in respect of any resolution, this instruction will be deemed to be neither a vote for or against the resolution.
    1. Any alteration made to this Form of Proxy should be initialled by the person who signs it.
    1. In the case of joint holders, such holders may elect one of their number to represent them and vote whether in person or by proxy in their name. In the absence of such an election, the person whose name stands first on the share register of the Company shall alone be entitled to vote.
    1. In the case of a corporation, this proxy must be given under its common seal or signed by a duly authorised officer or attorney.
    1. To be valid, this Form of Proxy (together with any power of attorney or other authority under which it is signed or a copy of such authority certified notarially) must be received by Link Group, PXS1, ,Central Square, 29 Wellington Street, Leeds, LS1 4DL., as soon as possible but, in any event, so as to arrive not later than 2.00 p.m. (BST) on Monday, 16 May 2022. Alternatively, Shareholders may submit proxies electronically not later than 2.00 p.m. (BST) on Monday, 16 May 2022 using the Link Share Portal Service at www.signalshares.com.
    1. Pursuant to Regulation 41 of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001 (as amended) and section 360B Companies Act 2006, the time by which a person must be entered on the share register in order to have the right to attend and vote at the meeting is close of business on Monday, 16 May 2022. If the meeting is adjourned, the time by which a person must be entered on the share register in order to have the right to attend and vote at the adjourned meeting is 48 hours before the date fixed for the adjourned meeting. Changes to entries on the share register after such times shall be disregarded in determining the rights of any person to attend or vote at the meeting.
    1. Shares held in uncertificated form (i.e. in CREST) may be voted through the CREST Proxy Voting Service in accordance with the procedures set out in the CREST manual.
    1. Shareholders should also refer to the Notes included at the end of the Notice of Annual General Meeting for further details on proceedings at the Annual General Meeting.
