Notes to the Form of Proxy:

(i) Every holder of preference shares is entitled to appoint as his/her proxy another person, who need not be a shareholder of the Company, to exercise all or any of his/her rights to attend, speak and vote at the meeting. If you wish to restrict the rights of your proxies please cross out either or both of the words "speak" or "vote" as you deem appropriate. For convenience, the appointment of the Chairman has already been included. If you wish to appoint the Chairman, you need only complete, sign and date in the space provided (see reverse). If you wish to appoint someone other than the Chairman as your proxy, you should insert the name of your proxy in the space provided (see reverse) and delete the words "the Chairman of the Meeting or". If the proxy is being appointed in relation to less than your full voting entitlement, please enter in the box next to the proxy holder's name (see reverse) the number of preference 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. Unless you give specific instructions on how to vote on a particular resolution, your proxy may vote as he or she thinks fit.

(ii) To appoint more than one person as your proxy, you may photocopy the Form of Proxy in relation to each proxy you wish to appoint, provided that each proxy is appointed to exercise the rights attaching to a different share or shares held by you. Each Form should clearly indicate the name of the proxy (see reverse), and the number of preference shares in relation to which they are authorised to act as your proxy. Please also indicate if the proxy instruction is one of multiple instructions being given. The Chairman of the Class Meeting may be appointed as one of your multiple proxies provided you follow the instructions set out in this Form. All Forms must be signed and should be returned together in the same envelope.

(iii) The "Vote Withheld" option is provided to enable you to abstain from voting on any particular resolution. However, it should be noted that a "Vote Withheld" is not a vote in law and will not be counted in the calculation of the proportion of the votes "For" and "Against" a resolution.

(iv) To be valid this Form must be signed and received by Capita Asset Services no later than 11.45 am on 17 May 2016. Only the first named joint holder need sign the Form. If the holder is a corporation, the Form must show the company's common seal, or be signed on its behalf by an attorney or officer stating their capacity (eg director or secretary).
