Vote

+ + Explanatory Notes:

• 1. Every shareholder has the right to appoint some other person(s) of their choice, who need not be a shareholder, as their proxy to exercise all or any of their rights, to attend, speak and vote on their behalf at the AGM. If you wish to appoint a person other than the Chair of the AGM, please insert the name of your chosen proxy holder in the space provided. 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 the number of 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 (or if this Form of Proxy has been issued in respect of a designated account for a shareholder, the full voting entitlement for that designated account).
• 1. To appoint more than one proxy, (an) additional Form(s) of Proxy may be obtained by contacting the Registrar's helpline on telephone number +44 (0) 371 384 2046 Telephone lines are open from 8.30am to 5.30pm, Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays in England and Wales). Alternatively, you may photocopy this form. Please indicate in the box next to the proxy holder's name the number of shares in relation to which they are authorised to act as your proxy. Please also indicate by ticking the appropriate box 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.
• 1. The AGM will be held as a physical meeting. The shareholders are strongly encouraged to complete and return this Form of Proxy appointing the Chair of the meeting as their proxy or vote online in advance of the AGM to ensure their votes are counted. Submitting a Form of Proxy will not prevent a shareholder from attending the AGM and voting in person where they are otherwise permitted to do so. A vote in person at the AGM will replace any vote previously lodged.

If you wish your proxy to cast your votes 'For' or 'Against' a resolution you may insert an 'x' in the appropriate box. If you do not wish your proxy to vote on any particular resolution, insert an 'x' in the 'Vote Withheld' box. The 'Vote Withheld' option overleaf 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 how your proxy is to vote, you will be deemed to have authorised your proxy to vote or withhold your vote as your proxy thinks fit. Your proxy will also be entitled to vote at their discretion.

• 1. Entitlement to attend and vote at the AGM, and the number of votes which may be cast at the AGM, will be determined by reference to the Register of Members of the Company at 6.30pm (UK time) on 23 July 2025 or, if the AGM is adjourned, 6.30pm on the date two business days prior to the adjourned AGM (as the case may be). In each case, changes to the Register of Members after such time will be disregarded.
• 1. You may, if you so wish, register the appointment of a proxy or proxies electronically by any of the following electronic methods:

• (B) If you are an institutional investor, you may be able to appoint a proxy electronically via the Proxymity platform, a process which has been agreed by the Company and approved by the Registrar. For further information regarding Proxymity, please go to www.proxymity.io. Your proxy must be lodged by 2.30 pm on 23 July 2025 in order to be considered valid. Before you can appoint a proxy via this process you will need to have agreed to Proxymity's associated terms and conditions. It is important that you read these carefully as you will be bound by them, and they will govern the electronic appointment of your proxy.
• (C) By giving an instruction to a proxy (whether previously appointed or otherwise) via the CREST system. CREST messages must be received by the issuer's agent (ID RA19) not later than 2.30pm on 23 July 2025. For this purpose, the time of receipt will be taken to be the time (as determined by the time stamp generated by the CREST system) from which the issuer's agent is able to retrieve the message. The Company may treat as invalid a proxy appointment sent by CREST in the circumstances set out in Regulation 35(5)(a) of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001.
• (D) Electronic proxy appointments using these methods must be received by the Registrar no later than 2.30pm (UK time) on 23 July 2025 (or, in the event of any adjournment, so as to be received no later than 48 hours, excluding non working days, before the time appointed for the AGM).
