- Please ensure you sign the Voting Instruction Form and initial any alterations. If someone other than you signs the Voting Instruction Form, it must be returned with either the letter of authority, Power of Attorney or a certified copy of the Power of Attorney authorising him/her to sign on your behalf.

- If your shareholding is held jointly, the votes of the senior holder who votes, either by proxy or in person, will be accepted to the exclusion of the votes from the other joint holders. For this purpose seniority for the joint holding is determined by the order in which the shareholders' names appear on the Company's Register of Members.
