Explanatory Notes

  1. Every holder has the right to appoint some other person(s) of their choice, who need not be a shareholder as his proxy to exercise all or any of his rights, to attend, speak and vote on their behalf at the meeting. If you wish to appoint a person other than the Chairman, please insert the name of your chosen proxy holder in the space provided (see overleaf). If the proxy is being appointed in relation to less than your full voting entitlement, please enter the number of shares in relation to which your proxy is authorised to act. If left blank, your proxy will be deemed to be authorised in respect of your full voting entitlement (or, if this proxy form has been issued in respect of a designated account for a shareholder, the full voting entitlement for that designated account).

  2. To appoint more than one proxy, you may photocopy this form. Please indicate the proxy holder's name and the number of shares in relation to which they are authorised to act as your proxy (which, in aggregate, must not exceed the number of shares held by you). Please also indicate if the proxy instruction is one of multiple instructions being given. All forms must be signed and should be returned together in the same envelope.

  3. The right to appoint a proxy does not apply to persons whose shares are held on their behalf by another person and who have been nominated to receive communication from the Company in accordance with section 146 of the Companies Act 2006 ("Nominated Persons"). Nominated Persons may have a right under an agreement with the registered shareholder who holds shares on their behalf to be appointed (or to have someone else appointed) as a proxy. Alternatively, if nominated persons do not have such a right, or do not wish to exercise it, they may have a right under such an agreement to give instructions to the person holding the shares as to the exercise of voting rights.

  4. The 'Vote Withheld' option is provided to enable you to abstain 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. If you do not indicate on the form how your proxy is to vote or otherwise give your proxy instructions how to vote, he/she can decide whether, and how, to vote.

  5. Entitlement to attend and vote at the meeting and the number of votes which may be cast thereat will be determined by reference to the Register of Members of the Company at close of business on 16 May 2017. Changes to entries on the register of members after that time shall be disregarded in determining the rights of any person to attend and vote at the meeting.

  6. In the case of joint holders, the signature of any one holder will be sufficient, but the names of all joint holders should be stated, and the vote of the senior holder who tenders a vote will be accepted to the exclusion of the vote(s) of other joint holder(s), seniority being determined by the order in which the names stand in the register of members of the Company.

  7. The completion and return of this form will not preclude a member from attending the meeting and voting in person. If you attend the meeting in person, your proxy appointment will automatically be terminated.

  8. The form of proxy must arrive at Capita Asset Services, 34 Beckenham Road, Beckenham, BR3 4TU during usual business hours accompanied by any power of attorney under which it is executed (if applicable) no later than 10.30am on 16 May 2017 (or not less than 48 hours before the time of the AGM if it is adjourned).

  9. If you prefer, you may return the proxy form to the Registrar in an envelope addressed to FREEPOST CAPITA PXS. Please allow around 5 days for this delivery method.

  10. Shareholders wishing to appoint a proxy online should visit www.capitashareportal.com and follow the instructions. The same deadline as in note 8 above applies.

  11. Shares held in uncertificated form (i.e. in CREST) may be voted through the CREST Proxy Voting Service in accordance with the procedures set out in the CREST manual. Again, the same deadline as in note 8 above applies.

  12. Of the Directors standing for re-election, Anthony Bloom is the Chairman of the Company and a Non-Executive Director, Israel Greidinger is the Deputy Chief Executive Officer, Mooky Greidinger is the Chief Executive Officer, Alicja Kornasiewicz is a Non-Executive Director and member of the Audit Committee, Scott Rosenblum is a Non-Executive Director and member of the Nomination Committee, Arni Samuelsson is a Non-Executive Director and member of the Nomination Committee, Rick Senat is a Non-Executive Director, the Senior Independent Director, the Chairman of the Nomination Committee and a member of the Remuneration Committee, and Julie Southern is a Non-Executive Director, Chair of the Audit Committee and a member of the Remuneration Committee.
