(v) the Company may at any time make a contract or contracts to purchase shares under the authority hereby conferred prior to the expiry of such authority which will or might be executed wholly or partly after the expiration of such authority and may make a purchase of shares pursuant to any such contract or contracts.

THAT, subject to the passing of Resolution 10 above (and in substitution for all subsisting authorities to the extent unused but without prejudice to the exercise of any such power prior to the date hereof), the Directors of the Company be and are hereby empowered pursuant to section 570 and section 573 of the Companies Act 2006 (the "Act") to allot equity securities (within the meaning of section 560 of the Act) for cash pursuant to the authority conferred by Resolution 10 or by way of a sale of treasury shares (within the meaning of section 560(3) of the Act) as if section 561 of the Act did not apply to any such allotment, provided that this power shall be limited to the allotment of equity securities:

(a) in connection with an offer of equity securities:

(i) to holders of shares in proportion (as nearly as may be practicable) to their existing holdings; and

(ii) to holders of other equity securities (if any) as required by the rights of those securities or as Directors otherwise consider necessary,

and so that the Directors may impose any limits or restrictions and make any arrangements which they consider necessary or appropriate to deal with any treasury shares, fractional entitlements, record dates, legal, regulatory or practical problems in, or under the laws of, any territory or the requirements of any regulatory body or stock exchange or any other matter (including any such problems arising by virtue of equity securities being represented by depositary receipts); and

(b) otherwise than pursuant to sub-paragraph (a) above, up to an aggregate nominal amount of £18,941 (being approximately 5% of the issued share capital (excluding treasury shares) as at 9 March 2021)

and shall, unless renewed, varied or revoked by the Company in general meeting, expire at the conclusion of the next Annual General Meeting of the Company after the passing of this resolution (which must be held no later than 30 June 2022), save that the Company may before such expiry make an offer or agreement which would or might require equity securities to be allotted after such expiry and the Directors may allot equity securities in pursuance of any such offer or agreement as if the power conferred by this resolution had not expired.

Resolution 12 – Ordinary Resolution

THAT, subject to the passing of Resolution 11 above, the Directors of the Company be and are hereby empowered, until the conclusion of the next Annual General Meeting of the Company (which must be held no later than 30 June 2022), to sell shares held as treasury shares at a discount to the prevailing net asset value per share provided:

(iv) that the weighted average discount be calculated by accounting for acquisitions, sales and cancellations from treasury on an average cost and average net asset value basis; and

(v) that the sale will not result in a dilution of the Company's net asset value per share (as at the date of the sale) of greater than 0.2%, when taken together with all other such sales since the date of the Annual General Meeting at which this resolution was passed.

Resolution 13 – Special Resolution

THAT the Company be and is hereby generally and unconditionally authorised to hold general meetings (other than annual general meetings) on 14 clear days' notice, such authority to expire at the conclusion of the next Annual General Meeting of the Company (which must be held no later than 30 June 2022).
