Notes:

1.     A vote withheld is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the proportion of votes "for" and "against" a resolution.

2.     As at 6.30pm (UK time) on Tuesday 28 April 2026, the time by which shareholders who wanted to attend and vote at the AGM must have been entered on the Company's register of members, there were 432,526,196 ordinary shares of 11 16/29 pence each in issue, of which 96,310,800 ordinary shares are held in treasury. Treasury shares do not carry voting rights. Accordingly, the total number of voting rights in respect of these ordinary shares is 336,215,396. Shareholders are entitled to one vote per share on a poll.
