Appointment of Proxy

the below details are subject to the specific rules applying to items 2, 4, 5 and 6 referred to overleaf.

Voting 100% of your holding: Direct your proxy how to vote by marking one of the boxes opposite each item of business. if you do not mark a box in respect of an item, your proxy may vote as they choose on that item. if you mark more than one box on an item your vote will be invalid on that item.

Voting a portion of your holding: indicate a portion of your voting rights by inserting the percentage or number of shares you wish to vote in the For, Against or Abstain box or boxes. the sum of the votes cast on an item of business must not exceed your voting entitlement or 100%.

Appointing a second proxy: You are entitled to appoint up to two proxies to attend the Meeting and vote on a poll. if you appoint two proxies you must specify the percentage of votes or number of shares for each proxy, otherwise each proxy may exercise half of the votes. Fractions of votes will be disregarded. when appointing a second proxy write both names and the percentage of votes or number of shares for each in Step 1 overleaf.
