10 November 2025
Dear Shareholder,
I am pleased to be writing to you with details of our Annual General Meeting ("AGM") which we are holding at Fourth Floor, Plaza House, Admiral Park, St Peter Port, Guernsey, GY1 4BF on 2 December 2025 at 2.00 p.m. (GMT).
The purpose of this letter is to explain the business to be considered at the AGM.
The business at the AGM will consist of the usual agenda items considered at each AGM of the Company, such items being set out in the resolutions in the notice of Annual General Meeting contained in this document (which include, inter alia, renewal of the authorities to buy-back US\$ Equity Shares and make Tender Offers). The items to be considered at the AGM are together referred to as the "Proposals".
Further details on the Proposals are set out below.
The notice of the AGM is set out at the end of this document. Shareholders may attend the AGM, in person or by proxy, or if a corporation, by a duly appointed representative.
The following table summarises all of the resolutions the Company is seeking to approve at the AGM. All special and ordinary resolutions represent renewals from previous annual general meetings.
Further details on each of the Resolutions are set out below.
Shareholders are being asked to vote at the AGM as the Proposals require approval in accordance with the Articles, the Companies Law, and/or the UK Listing Rules or all of them (as applicable).
The Articles allow holders of US\$ Equity Shares to attend and vote at the AGM.
If you are a Shareholder, you will find enclosed with this document a Form of Proxy for use at the AGM.
You are asked to complete the Form of Proxy in accordance with the instructions printed thereon so as to be received by the Registrars not later than the time and date stipulated in the Form of Proxy. The completion and return of the Form of Proxy will not preclude you from attending the AGM and voting in person if you wish to do so.
Shareholders are urged to return their Form of Proxy and to vote in favour of the Resolutions.
Set out on pages 11 to 12 of this document is a notice convening the AGM to be held at 2.00 p.m. (GMT) on 2 December 2025 at Fourth Floor, Plaza House, Admiral Park, St Peter Port, Guernsey, GY1 4BF.
At the AGM, two special resolutions and seven ordinary resolutions will be proposed.
The first resolution will, if passed, renew the Company's authority to make purchases of US\$ Equity Shares by way of a Tender Offer. The authority limits the maximum number of US\$ Equity Shares that could be purchased to 15 per cent. of the US\$ Equity Shares in issue as at 2 December 2025. The authority also sets the minimum and maximum prices. This authority will expire on the date 18 months after the date on which this resolution is passed.
The second resolution will, if passed, authorise the Company to buy back US\$ Equity Shares on the market. US\$ Equity Shares which are purchased using this authority, if granted, may be cancelled or held in treasury. The authority limits the number of US\$ Equity Shares that could be purchased to a maximum of 3,245,093 US\$ Equity Shares or, if less, such number as is equal to 14.99 per cent. of the issued US\$ Equity Shares (excluding Treasury Shares) as at the date of passing of the second resolution. This authority also sets the maximum and minimum prices.
If this resolution is passed, it is the Company's current intention, subject to applicable legal and regulatory limitations, to hold in treasury the US\$ Equity Shares it may purchase pursuant to the above authority. However, in order to respond properly to the Company's capital requirements and prevailing market conditions, the Directors will need to readdress at the time of any and each actual purchase whether to hold the US\$ Equity Shares in treasury or cancel them, provided it is permitted to do so.
The third resolution will, if passed, approve and adopt the Annual Report and Financial Statements of the Company for the year ended 30 June 2025.
The fourth resolution will, if passed, re-elect PricewaterhouseCoopers CI LLP as auditors to the Company until such time as the next annual general meeting of the Company or their removal as the Company's auditors, whichever may be sooner.
The fifth resolution will, if passed, re-authorise the Directorsto determine the remuneration of the Auditors to the Company.
The sixth resolution will, if passed, re-authorise the Directors to determine their remuneration in accordance with the Articles of Incorporation.
The seventh resolution will, if passed, re-elect Trina Le Noury as a non-executive, independent director of the Company.
The eighth resolution will, if passed, re-elect Anthony (Tony) Dalwood as a non-executive, independent director of the Company.
The ninth resolution will, if passed, re-elect Sean Hurst as a non-executive, independent director of the Company.
Resolutions one and two are special resolutions and thus, to be passed, require the approval of not less than 75 per cent. of those Shareholders entitled to attend and who are present and voting at the AGM in respect of each special resolution. Resolutions three to nine (inclusive) are ordinary resolutions and thus, to be passed, require the approval of a simple majority of those Shareholders entitled to attend and who are present and voting at the AGM in respect of each ordinary resolution.
In order for a quorum to be present at the AGM, it is necessary for there to be present in person, by corporate representative or by proxy, two or more Shareholders. If, within half an hour after the time appointed for the AGM, a quorum is not present, then the AGM will stand adjourned to 2.00 p.m. (GMT) on 9 December 2025. At any adjourned meeting, those Shareholders present in person, by corporate representative or by proxy and entitled to vote will constitute a quorum. Forms of proxy will also be valid at any adjourned meeting.
Your Board considers that the Proposals are in the best interests of Shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, the Board unanimously recommends Shareholders to vote in favour of the Resolutions proposed at the AGM.
Yours sincerely
Chairman
