    1. To be valid, this Form of Proxy and the power of attorney or other authority (if any) under which it is signed and dated must be received by Equiniti not later than 9.30am on Tuesday, 14 July 2015.
    1. If you wish to appoint as your proxy someone other than the Chairman of the Meeting, insert their name in the space provided in the first box. If the proxy is being appointed in relation to part of your holding only, enter the number of shares over which they are authorised to act as your proxy in the box next to the proxy's name. If this box is left blank, they will be authorised in respect of your full voting entitlement.
    1. To appoint more than one proxy, either photocopy this form or contact Equiniti on 0871 384 2839 (calls to this number are charged at 8 pence per minute plus network extras. Lines open 8.30am to 5.30pm, Monday to Friday. Equiniti overseas help line number is +44 (0)121 415 7047). Ensure you specify the number of shares over which each proxy can act, as in note 2 above. Multiple Forms of Proxy should be returned together in the same envelope. No proxy may be authorised to exercise votes which any other proxy has been authorised to exercise. Photocopies may only be used in respect of the same registered shareholder name (and designated account as applicable) as it appears on the original form.
    1. To register the appointment of a proxy electronically, visit www.sharevote.co.uk and follow the instructions provided. The proxy appointment must be received by Equiniti at the address referred to on the website by 9.30am on Tuesday, 14 July 2015.

In the case of a corporation, the proxy appointment must be under seal or signed by a duly authorised officer or attorney. In the case of joint holdings, any one holder may sign this form, but the vote of the first named in the register of members will be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of joint holders.
    1. If no specific directions are given, the proxy will vote or abstain from voting as he thinks fit on the specified resolutions, and, unless instructed otherwise, the person appointed proxy may also vote or abstain from voting as he thinks fit on any business (including amendments to resolutions) which may properly come before the AGM.
    1. A proxy need not be a member of the Company but must attend the AGM to represent you. If no name is inserted in the box provided, the Chairman will be deemed appointed as the proxy.
    1. Any alteration to this Form of Proxy should be initialled by the person who signed it.
    1. If you do not wish anyone other than the Company or Equiniti to see the Form of Proxy, you may fold it in half and send it in an envelope to: Equiniti, FREEPOST SEA 10846, Aspect House, Spencer Road, Lancing BN99 6ZL.
    1. The completion and return of this Form of Proxy will not preclude a member from attending the AGM and voting in person.
