For the purposes of section 341 of the Companies Act 2006, the votes validly cast are expressed in the table above as a percentage of the Company's total voting rights as at 11.30am on 11 September 2020 (191,318,240), being the time at which a shareholder had to be registered in the register of members in order to vote at the General Meeting.  A vote "withheld" is not a vote in law and has not been counted as a vote "for" or "against" a resolution.

The number of ordinary shares in issue at the date of this announcement is 191,318,240. There are no shares held in treasury. Therefore, as at the date of this announcement the number of voting rights in the Company are 191,318,240.
