• 1. Every shareholder has the right to appoint some other person(s), who need not be a shareholder, as their proxy to exercise all or any of their rights to attend, speak and vote on their behalf at the meeting. If you wish to appoint a person other than the Chair of the meeting, please insert the name of your chosen proxy holder in the left box labelled 'Name of proxy'. If the proxy is being appointed in relation to less than your full voting entitlement, please enter in the box on the right next to the proxy holder's name 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 proxy form has been issued in respect of a designated account for a shareholder, the full voting entitlement for that designated account).
• 1. A shareholder can appoint more than one proxy in relation to the meeting, provided that each proxy is appointed to exercise the rights attaching to different shares held by them. To appoint more than one proxy, (an) additional proxy form(s) may be obtained by contacting the shareholder helpline on +44(0)371 384 2282, (please use the country code if you are calling from outside the UK); lines open 8.30 am to 5.30 pm (UK time), Monday to Friday, excluding public holidays in England & Wales. Alternatively, you may photocopy the form overleaf. Please indicate in the box on the right 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. 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.
• 1. The proxy must attend the meeting in person to represent you. The completion of a Form of Proxy does not preclude the shareholder from attending or voting in person.
• 1. Please indicate with an X in the appropriate space on the Form of Proxy how you wish your votes to be cast in respect of each of the resolutions being proposed. If the Form of Proxy is returned duly signed but without specific direction as to how the proxy is to vote or abstain from voting on any particular matter, the proxy will vote or abstain at their discretion. Your proxy will also have discretion to vote as they see fit on any business which may properly come before the meeting.
• 1. To be valid, the Form of Proxy should be lodged with Equiniti at the address on the enclosed envelope, or at the registered office of the Company, not less than 48 hours (excluding non-working days) before the time fixed for the meeting or any adjournment thereof (as the case may be) together (unless you are completing an electronic appointment) with any authority (or a notarially certified copy of such authority) under which it is signed.
• 1. Unless you are completing an electronic appointment, in the case of an appointment by a corporation, the Form of Proxy must be under its common seal (if any) or the hand of its duly authorised agent or officer and, in the case of an appointment by an individual, the Form of Proxy must be signed by the appointor or their duly authorised agent.
• 1. In the case of joint holders, only one of the named holders on the share register need sign but, if more than one holder votes, the vote of the first named on the register of members will be accepted to the exclusion of other joint holders.
• 1. Please note that 'Vote withheld' has no legal effect and will count neither in the votes 'For' or 'Against' a resolution.
• 1. You can register the appointment of your proxy electronically via Equiniti's online portfolio service, Shareview. Institutional investors may be able to use www.proxymity.io. Full details and instructions are given on the relevant website. The deadline for submission of a proxy appointment in this way is the same as in note 5 above. An electronic proxy appointment will be invalid unless it is lodged at one of the electronic addresses specified in this note 9. Please note that any electronic communication received by or on behalf of the Company, including the lodgement of an electronic proxy form, that is found to contain any virus will not be accepted. You may not use any electronic address provided in the Notice of AGM or in these Notes for completion of the Form of Proxy to communicate with the Company for any purposes other than those expressly stated.
• 1. CREST members who wish to appoint a proxy or proxies through the CREST electronic proxy appointment service should first read shareholder note 2 on pages 13 to 14 of the Notice of AGM.
