Performance in 2022

Despite the macroeconomic challenges, we reported a strong finance in 2022. The Group delivered a strong revenue of c £3bn, an increase of 24% on the prior year, and growth in underlying operating profit, up 12%, both on a constant currency basis. The good operating performance was the main driver of earnings per share up by 20%, compared with 2021. Further information can be found in our 2022 Annual Report and Accounts

Dividend

We are very proud of our dividend history and recognise its importance to shareholders. We are consistently increased or maintained the dividend since listing on the London 1994. The Boardis recommending the payment of a 2022 final dividend of 24.5p per share (2021: 23.3p per share) to be paid on 23 June 2023 to shareholders on the register as at the close on 2 June 2023.

Board composition

Our Board Diversity Policy has been in place since 2021. We have made great strides in achieving a diverse Board, particularly in respect of female representation which stands at 43% (2021: 57%). We have met or exceeded the diversity targets we set ourselves in the Board Diversity Policy and as recommended by the FTSE Women Leaders and Parker Reviews.

As reported in last year's Annual Report, Juan G. Herna joined the Boardin February 2022. Nancy Tuor Moore retired in May 2022. No other changes occurred during the year.

In accordance with the UK Corporate Governance Code (the Code'), all Directors of the Company will stand for re-election to the AGM. Their biographies are set out in Appendix 1 on page 12 of this Notice of AGM.

The Boardbelieves that each Director brings consideranging skills and experience to the Board as a whole and continues to make an effective and valuable contribution to the Board. Each Director has continued to perform effectively and demonstrate commitment to their role

Explanatory notes

1. Resolution 1 - Accounts and reports

A public company is required to lay its annual accounts and reports at a general meeting under the Act. The accounts, the report of the Directors and the report of the Company's Auditors on the accounts are contained within the Annual Report and Accounts.

2. Resolution 2 - Directors' remuneration report

Section 439 of the Act requires that a remuneration report is put to a vote of shareholders at the AGM. This vote is advisory and the Directors entitlement to receive remuneration is not conditional on it. Shareholders are asked to approve the remuneration report on pages 108 to 121 of the Annual Report and Accounts.

3. Resolution 3 – Final dividend recommendation

The Board of Directors of the Company (the 'Board') recommends a final dividend of 24.5p per share for the year ended 31 December 2022. If approved, the recommended final dividend will be paid on 23 June 2023 to all shareholders who are on the register of members on 2 June 2023.

4. Resolution 4-Re-appointment of Auditors

The law in England requires shareholders to approve the re-appointment of a company's auditor each year. The appointment runs until the conclusion of the next AGM or 16 August 2024 (whichever is the earlier).

lt is proposed that Ernst & Young LLP be and are hereby re-appointed Auditors of the Company and will hold office from the conclusion of this AGM until the conclusion of the next General Meeting at which accounts are laid before the Company.

5. Resolution 5-Auditors' remuneration

Under the Act, the remuneration of an auditor must be fixed by the shareholders by ordinary resolution or in such manner as the shareholders by ordinary resolution determine. Resolution 5 gives authority to the Audit and Risk Committee to determine the Auditors' remuneration

6. Resolutions 6 to 12 - Re-election of Directors

In accordance with the recommendations in the provisions of the Code, we will continue our practice of requiring all Directors to retire annually and to offer themselves for re-election

The Board believes that each Director brings considerable knowledge and wide ranging skills and experience to the Board as a whole and continues to demonstrate commitment to their role and to make an effective and valuable contribution to the deliberations of the Board.

We consider all of the Non-executive Directors to be independent in accordance with the Code.

Biographies of all the Directors standing for re-election are set out in Appendix 1 on page 12 of this Notice of AGM.

7. Resolutions 13, 14 and 15 - Authority to allot shares and disapplication of pre-emption rights

Under the Act, the Directors may only allot shares if authorised to do so under section 551 of the Act. Section 561 of the Act prevents allotments of equity securities for cash other than to existing shareholders in proportion to their existing holdings, unless the Directors are specifically authorised to do otherwise. This gives existing shareholders what are known as 'pre-emption rights'.

In line with guidance issued by The Investment Association, if passed, resolution 13(i) will authorise the Directors to allot Ordinary Shares of 10p each in the capital of the Company (and to grant rights to subscribe for, or to convert any security into, Ordinary Shares in the Company) up to an aggregate nominal amount of £4.851.385. This amount represents approximately one third of the issued Ordinary Share capital of the Company (excluding treasury shares) as at 9 March 2023, being the last practicable date before the publication of this document.

In addition, if passed, resolution 13(ii) will authorise the Directors to allot Ordinary Shares (and to grant rights to subscribe for, or to convert any security into, Ordinary Shares in connection with a rights issue only up to a further aggregate nominal amount of £2,425,693. This amount represents approximately one third of the issued Ordinary Share capital of the Company (excluding treasury shares) as at 9 March 2023, being the last practicable date before the publication of this document.

Resolutions 14 and 15, which will be proposed as special resolutions, if passed, will enable the Directors to allot equity securities for cash or sell treasury shares for cash and/or sell treasury shares without having to comply with statutory pre-emption rights.

The powers proposed under resolution 14 will be limited to allotments or sales:

• up to an aggregate nominal amount of (i) £4,851,385 in connection (i) with a rights issue or (ii) £2,425,693 in connection with an open offer or other pre-emptive offer, in each case to Ordinary Shareholders and to holders of other equity securities (if required by the rights of those securities or the Directors otherwise consider necessary), but (in accordance with normal practice) subject to such exclusions or other arrangements as the Directors may deem necessary or expedient in relation to treasury shares, fractional entitlements, record dates or any legal or practical problems under the laws of any territory or the requirements of any regulatory body or stock exchange; and
• (ii) otherwise than pursuant to (i) above, up to an aggregate nominal amount of £727,708, which represents approximately 10%. of the Company's issued ordinary share capital as at 9 March 2023, (being the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this Notice); and
• (iii) otherwise than under paragraphs (i) and (ii) above) an aggregate nominal amount of £145,542 which represents up to approximately 2%. of the Company's issued ordinary share capital as at 9 March 2023 (being the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this Notice) to be used only for the purposes of making a follow-on offer to retail investors or existing investors not allocated shares in the offer

The powers proposed under resolution 15 will be limited to allotments or sales:

• (i) up to a further aggregate nominal amount of £727,708, which represents approximately 10%. of the Company's issued ordinary share capital as at 9 March 2023, (being the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this Notice) for the purposes of financing a transaction which the Directors determine to be an acquisition on other capital investment contemplated by the Statement of Principles on Disapplying Pre-Emption Rights most recently published by the Pre-Emption Group prior to the date of this Notice (the "Statement of Principles") and
• (ii) otherwise than under paragraph (i) above, an aggregate nominal amount of £145,542 which represents up to approximately 2%. of the Company's issued ordinary share capital as at 9 March 2023, (being the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this Notice) to be used only for the purposes of making a follow-on offer to retail investors or existing investors not allocated shares in the offer.

The disapplication authorities under Resolutions 14 and 15 are in line with guidance set out in the Statement of Principles. The Statement of Principles allow a board to allot shares for cash otherwise than in connection with a pre-emptive offer (i) up to 10%. of a company's issued share capital for use on an unrestricted basis. (ii) up to a further 10%, of a company's issued share capital for use in connection with an acquisition or specified capital investment announced either contemporaneously with the issue, or which has taken place in the preceding twelve-month period and is disclosed in the announcement of the issue and (iii) in the case of both (i) or (ii), up to an additional 2%. in connection with a follow-on offer to retail investors or existing investors not allocated shares in the offer.

As at close of business on 9 March 2023, the Company held 328,954 Ordinary Shares in treasury, which represent approximately 0.45% of the Company's issued Ordinary Shares (excluding treasury shares) at that time

The authorities sought by resolutions 13, 14 and 15 will expire at the conclusion of the next AGM following the passing of these resolutions or on 16 August 2024 (whichever is the earlier) but could be varied or withdrawn by agreement of shareholders at an intervening General Meeting

8. Resolution 16 – Purchase of the Company's own shares

This resolution grants a limited authority to the Company to purchase through the market up to 10% of its issued share capital. The resolution specifies the maximum and minimum prices at which the Ordinary Shares may be bought at the date of the notice. The authority sought will expire at the conclusion of the next AGM following the passing of this resolution, but could be varied or withdrawn by agreement of shareholders at an intervening General Meeting.

The Directors will only exercise the authority to purchase Ordinary Shares where they consider that such purchases will be in the interests of shareholders generally and will result in an increase in earnings per share

9. Resolution 17 - Political donations

Resolution 17 deals with political donations. Under the Act, political donations to any political parties, independent election candidates or political organisations or the incurring of political expenditure are prohibited unless authorised by shareholders in advance. What constitutes a political donation, a political party, a political organisation, or political expenditure is not easy to decide, as the legislation is capable of wide interpretation. Sponsorship, subscriptions, payment of expenses, paid leave for employees fulfiling public duties, and support for bodies representing the business community in policy review or reform, may fall within this

Therefore, notwithstanding that the Company has no intention either now or in the future of making any political donation or incurring any political expenditure in respect of any political party, political organisation or independent election candidate, the Board has decided to put forward resolution 17 to allow the Company to support the community and put forward its views to wider business and government interests without running the risk of being in breach of the law. As permitted under the Act, resolution 17 also covers any political donations made, or political expenditure incurred, by any subsidiaries of the Company.

10. Resolution 18 - Calling a General Meeting on 14 days' notice

This resolution is intended to allow the Company to utilise the provisions of section 307A of the Act, to retain a 14-day notice period for Company meetings other than AGMs. Under the Act, listed companies must provide 21 clear days' notice of a General Meeting, unless the Company offers a facility for shareholders to vote by electronic means that is accessible to all shareholders and shareholders have approved the holding of General Meetings on 14 clear days' notice. Passing resolution 18 will mean that the Company can call a meeting other than an AGM on 14 clear days' notice, provided that it offers the facility for shareholders to vote by electronic means at any such meeting. The Company intends to use this authority in limited circumstances for time-sensitive matters and where a shorter notice period would, in the Board's opinion, be merited in the interests of shareholders as a whole

Recommendation

The Directors believe that the proposals in resolutions 1 to 18 are in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole and, accordingly, they unanimously recommend that you vote in favour of all of the resolutions

Action to be taken

If you cannot attend the AGM, please vote your shares by appointing one or more proxies to attend, speak and vote at the AGM. You can do so in the following ways:

• · by using the CREST electronic proxy appointment service (if you are a CREST member);
• online via the Proxymity platform (if you are an institutional investor);
• online via your portfolio at www.shareview.co.uk using your usual user ID and password;
• online at www.sharevote.co.uk. You will need to enter the Voting ID, Task ID and Shareholder Reference Number which are provided in your proxy form; or

Other notes

(i) Record date

The right to vote at the meeting is determined by reference to the register of members. Only those shareholders registered in the register of members of the Company as at 6.30pm on 15 May 2023 or, in the event that the meeting is adjourned, in the register of members as at 6.30pm on the date that is two working days before the time of any adjourned meeting, shall be entitled to attend or vote at the meeting in respect of the number of shares registered in their name at that time. Changes to entries in the register of members after 6.30pm on 15 May 2023 or, in the event that the meeting is adjourned, after 6.30pm on the date that is two working days before the time of any adjourned meeting shall be disregarded in determining the rights of any person to attend or vote (and the number of votes they may cast) at the meeting.

(ii) Proxies

• (a) A shareholder is entitled to appoint one or more persons as proxies to exercise all or any of his rights to attend, speak and vote at the meeting. A shareholder may appoint more than one proxy in relation to the meeting provided that each proxy is appointed to exercise the rights attached to a different share or shares held by him. A proxy need not be a member of the Company. The appointment of a proxy will not preclude a shareholder from attending and voting in person at the meeting if he so wishes. To appoint more than one proxy, shareholders will need to complete a separate proxy form for each proxy. Copies of additional proxy forms can be obtained from the Company's Registrar, Equiniti, by telephoning 0371 384 2264. Lines are open from 8.30am to 5.30pm (UK time), Monday to Friday, excluding English public holidays. Please use the country code when calling from outside the UK. Alternatively, shareholders may photocopy the form of proxy, indicating on each copy the name of the proxy to be appointed and the number of shares in respect of which the proxy is appointed. A failure to specify the number of shares to which each proxy appointment relates or specifying a number in excess of those held by the shareholder may result in the proxy appointment being invalid. The total votes cast and in respect whereof abstention is recorded by a shareholder or his duly appointed proxies may not, in aggregate, exceed the total number of the votes exercisable by that shareholder in respect of Ordinary Shares of which he is the holder. All forms of proxy should be returned together in the same envelope. Shareholders can only appoint a proxy using the procedures set out in these notes and the notes to the proxy form. The right of a shareholder under section 324 of the Act to appoint a proxy does not apply to a person nominated to enjoy information rights under section 146 of the Act
• (b) A form of proxy is enclosed. To be valid, it must be completed, signed and sent to the offices of Equiniti at Aspect House, Spencer Road, Lancing, West Sussex BN99 6DA so as to arrive no later than 11.00am on Monday 15 May 2023 (or, in the event that the meeting is adjourned, no later than 48 hours (excluding non-working days) before the time of any adjourned meeting).

Alternatively, shareholders who wish to appoint a proxy and vote online should go to www.sharevote.co.uk, enter the Voting ID, Task ID and Shareholder Reference Number provided on the proxy form; or if the shareholder already has a portfolio registered with Equiniti, they should go to www.shareview.co.uk and use their usual user ID and password.

(c) CREST members who wish to appoint a proxy or proxies through the CREST electronic proxy appointment service may do so by using the procedures described in the CREST Manual on the Euroclear website (www.euroclear.com). CREST personal members or other CREST sponsored members and those CREST members who have appointed voting service provider(s), should refer to their CREST sponsor on voting service provider(s) who will be able to take the appropriate action on their behalf.

In order for a proxy appointment or instruction made using the CREST service to be valid, the appropriate CREST message (a 'CREST Proxy Instruction') must be properly authenticated in accordance with Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited's specifications and must contain the information required for such instructions, as described in the CREST Manual. The message, regardless of whether it constitutes the appointment of a proxy or an amendment to the instruction qiven to a previously appointed proxy, must, in order to be valid, be transmitted so as to be received by the issuer's agent ID RA19 by no later than 11.00am on Monday 15 May 2023 (or, in the event that the meeting is adjourned, no later than 48 hours (excluding non-working days) before the time of any adjourned meeting). No such message received through the CREST network after this time will be accepted For this purpose, the time of receipt will be taken to be the time (as determined by the timestamp applied to the message by the CREST Applications Host) from which the registrars are able to retrieve the message by enquiry to CREST in the manner prescribed by CREST. After this time, any change of instructions to proxies appointed through CREST should be communicated to the appointee through other means.

CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service provider(s) should note that Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited does not make available special procedures in CREST for any particular messages. Normal system timings and limitations will therefore apply in relation to the input of CREST Proxy Instructions. It is the responsibility of the CREST member concerned to take (or, if the CREST member is a CREST personal member or sponsored member or has appointed a voting service provider(s), to procure that his CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s) take(s)) such action as shall be necessary to ensure that a message is transmitted by means of the CREST system by any particular time. In this connection, CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service provider(s) are referred, in particular, to those sections of the CREST Manual concerning practical limitations of the CREST system and timings.

The Company may treat as invalid a CREST Proxy Instruction in the circumstances set out in Regulation 35(5) a) of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001.

(d) 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 11.00am on Monday 15 May 2023 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.

(iii) Nominated Persons

A copy of this Notice has been sent for information only to persons who have been nominated by a member to enjoy information rights under section 146 of the Act (a 'Nominated Person'). The rights to appoint a proxy cannot be exercised by a Nominated Person; they can only be exercised by the member. However, a Nominated Person may have a right under an agreement between him and the member by whom he was nominated to be appointed as a proxy for the meeting or to have someone else so appointed. If a Nominated Person does not have such a right or does not wish to exercise it, he may have a right under such an agreement to give instructions to the member as to the exercise of voting rights. It is important for any Nominated Person to remember that his main contact in terms of his investment remains as it was (for example, the registered shareholder, or perhaps custodian or broker, who administers the investment on the Nominated Person's behalf). Therefore any changes or queries relating to a Nominated Person's personal details and holding (including any administration thereof) must continue to be directed to that Nominated Person's existing contact at his investment manager on custodian. The Company cannot guarantee dealing with matters that are directed to it in error. The only exception to this is where the Company, in exercising one of its powers under the Act, writes to a Nominated Person directly for a response.

(iv) Multiple corporate representatives

• (a) A member which is a corporation is entitled to appoint more than one corporate representative and all of those appointed can attend the meeting of the Company.
• (b) In accordance with the provisions of the Act, each such representative may exercise (on behalf of the corporation) the same powers as the corporation could exercise if it were an individual member of the Company, provided that they do not do so in relation to the same shares. It is no longer necessary to nominate a designated corporate representative
