Chairman's Introduction

Richard Solomons Chairman

Dear Shareholder

I am pleased to enclose the Notice of the Annual General Meeting (AGM) of Rentokil Initial plc (the Company) which will be held at, and broadcast from, the Company's offices at Compass House, Manor Royal, Crawley, West Sussex, RH10 9PY on Wednesday 8 May 2024 at 11:30am.

2024 AGM arrangements

The Board recognises that the AGM provides an invaluable opportunity to engage with shareholders, which is why we will once again be holding a hybrid meeting with a facility for shareholders to attend, ask questions and vote on the proposed resolutions online. The AGM is also an important event in the Company's corporate calendar for shareholders to consider key resolutions for the conduct of the business and affairs of the Company. I would recommend joining the secure live webcast which provides convenient access to participate in the proceedings.

If you would like to submit a question in advance to be answered at the AGM, you are welcome to do so by emailing me at chairman@ rentokil-initial.com. I would request that questions are submitted by 3:00pm on Friday 3 May 2024. Instructions on how to ask a question immediately before and during the meeting are on pages 10 and 14.

Where it is not possible to answer any of the questions submitted prior to and during the AGM – for example, due to time constraints – we will endeavour, where appropriate, to answer them both directly to the shareholder by post and by publishing questions and responses on the Company's website at rentokil-initial.com/agm as soon as practicable following the AGM.

Formal business of the meeting

The formal notice of the AGM is set out on pages 3 to 5, with full details of the resolutions to be proposed at the AGM contained in the explanatory notes on pages 6 to 8 of this document. In addition to the resolutions that are dealt with as a matter of course at each AGM of the Company, I would like to draw your attention to the following items of business.

Remuneration Policy

The Directors' Remuneration Policy (the Policy) is required to be renewed at least every three years. This year, we are seeking your approval to renew the Policy, as it was last approved in 2021 and is now due for renewal. The Remuneration Committee reviewed the existing policy with the aim of ensuring that the Policy continues to support the delivery of our strategy while appropriately balancing the incentivisation and reward of our experienced Directors, with the interests of shareholders, colleagues, and the wider community. They were also keen to ensure that the remuneration of our Executive Directors is aligned appropriately following the acquisition of Terminix, which has added significantly to the size and complexity of the Group.

The Remuneration Committee undertook a detailed consultation with key shareholders, representing around 50% of the shareholder register, and several leading proxy agencies to engage in proposals for the new Policy. The feedback strongly influenced the proposed Policy, in particular the preference for any incremental opportunity to be balanced between fixed and performance based variable pay. The key changes proposed to the Policy are an increase in the maximum bonus opportunity from 180% to 225% of base salary, which will be focused on the delivery of financial performance, and is balanced with an increase in bonus deferral from

40% to 50%, which means that the Committee can align the bonus opportunity with market benchmarks, while ensuring the majority of the change will be delivered in the long term. In addition, the shareholding guideline for both the Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer is increasing from 300% to 400% and 200% to 300% respectively.

Further details of the proposed changes to the existing Policy are outlined in the explanatory notes on page 6.

Directors

All the Directors of the Company will be standing for re-election in accordance with the Company's Articles of Association and the UK Corporate Governance Code (the Code).

Board Recommendation

The Board believes that all of the resolutions to be put to the meeting are in the best interests of the Company's members as a whole and will promote the success of the Company for their and its other stakeholders' benefit. Accordingly, the Board unanimously recommends that you vote in favour of the resolutions which will be put to the meeting, as members of the Board intend to do in respect of their own beneficial shareholdings. All resolutions will be put to a poll and the voting results will be published via a Regulatory Information Service announcement and on the Company's website as soon as possible following the AGM.

Voting

Your vote, as always, is important to us and we encourage you to consider ensuring that your vote is counted by submission of the proxy form online or by post. I would also advise you to appoint me, the Chair of the meeting, as your proxy to ensure that your vote is counted if for some reason you are not able to attend on the day. Please complete and submit your form of proxy online or complete the paper proxy that accompanies this Notice and return it to the Company's Registrar, Equiniti. All proxy forms must be received by no later than 11:30am on Friday 3 May 2024. Information about how to electronically appoint a proxy is given in note 4 on page 9 of this document. Voting by proxy ahead of the meeting will not prevent you from attending and voting either in person or electronically.

Shareholders and their duly appointed representatives and/or proxies have the opportunity to participate remotely via a live webcast which you can access by logging on to web.lumiagm.com/118893065. Online joining instructions can be found on page 14 in respect of the electronic elements of the AGM, including instructions on how to submit your votes and ask questions on the day, along with the relevant contact details if you encounter any issues.

• (b) expires (unless previously renewed, varied or revoked by the Company in general meeting) at the end of the next AGM of the Company (or, if earlier, at the close of business on 8 August 2025), but the Company may make an offer or agreement which would or might require equity securities to be allotted after expiry of this power and the Directors may allot equity securities in pursuance of that offer or agreement as if this power had not expired.

Explanatory notes

Resolutions 1 to 17 are proposed as ordinary resolutions. This means that for each of those resolutions to be passed, more than half of the votes cast must be in favour of the resolution. Resolutions 18 to 21 are proposed as special resolutions. This means that for each of those resolutions to be passed, at least three-quarters of the votes cast must be in favour of the resolution.

Receiving the reports and accounts (resolution 1)

The Directors must present the report of the Directors and the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2023 to shareholders at the AGM. These include the Financial Statements, together with the Strategic Report, the reports of the Directors and the auditor and those parts of the Directors' Remuneration Report that are capable of being audited. These are all contained in the Annual Report 2023, which is available on the Company's website at rentokil-initial.com.

Approval of the Directors' Remuneration Report (resolution 2)

Shareholders are invited to approve the Directors' Remuneration Report, excluding the Directors' Remuneration Policy, which may be found on pages 131 to 155 of the Annual Report 2023. It sets out the pay and benefits received by each of the Directors for the year ended 31 December 2023. In line with legislation this vote will be advisory and in respect of the overall remuneration package.

Approval of the Directors' Remuneration Policy (resolution 3)

The Directors' Remuneration Policy (the Policy) is set out on pages 156 to 161 of the Annual Report 2023. It sets out the Company's policy on remuneration and potential payments to Directors in the future. The Policy must be approved by shareholders (by means of a separate resolution) at least once every three years. Following a shareholder consultation process which is outlined in the Directors' Remuneration Report on page 153 of the Annual Report 2023, a new Policy is being put forward for shareholder approval. The Policy for which we are seeking your approval is largely unchanged from the policy approved by shareholders in 2021. The changes proposed have been made to ensure that the remuneration of our Executive Directors is realigned appropriately following the acquisition of Terminix, which has added significantly to the size and complexity of the Group.

The changes proposed have been made to comply with evolving market practice. The key changes and the rationale are set out below.

Annual bonus scheme

• Increase the maximum opportunity from the current level of 180% of base salary, to 225%.
• This uplift will be based on the achievement of targeted and measurable financial results. Furthermore, for 2024, the uplift in bonus opportunity will be fully aligned to the delivery of Organic Revenue Growth and integration synergy targets in our North American business.

Bonus deferral

• Increases from 40% to 50% of any bonus payable. The bonus will continue to be deferred into shares for a three-year period.
• This change increases the proportion of the package that will be delivered in the long-term.

Shareholding guidelines

• Increases for the CEO from 300% to 400% of salary and for the CFO from 200% to 300%.
• Post-cessation guidelines will continue to apply, which will normally require Executive Directors to continue to meet the shareholding requirement for two years post-cessation.

Rationale

• The Remuneration Committee has been mindful that the external environment continues to be unconducive to material pay increases when considering changes to the Policy. However, the Committee also recognises that it is important that we can effectively reward, motivate, and retain our high-performing Executive Directors. With this in mind we have worked to create a Policy that balances these considerations and will be effective at rewarding the Executive Directors appropriately over the next three years.
• Throughout the consultation process our shareholders have fully supported the need to increase the packages of our CEO and CFO to reflect the increase in size and complexity of the Company; with the appropriate change delivered through a balance of variable and fixed pay.
• Increasing the maximum bonus opportunity and the level of deferral at the same time means that the Committee can align the bonus opportunity with market benchmarks, while also ensuring the majority of the increase will be delivered in the long term. This is because 50% of any bonus earned would be converted to shares and held for a further three years. Currently, the annual bonus potential is 180% of base salary with a 40% deferral i.e. a maximum of 72% of base salary is deferred. Increasing the annual bonus potential to 225% with a 50% deferral results in up to 112.5% of base salary being deferred.

Declaration of a final dividend (resolution 4)

Shareholders must approve the final dividend payable for each ordinary share held. The Board proposes a final dividend of 5.93p per share for the year ended 31 December 2023. If approved, the recommended final dividend will be paid on 15 May 2024 to all shareholders who are in the register of members on 5 April 2024.

Shareholders are reminded that the Company no longer pays dividends by cheque (see note 7 on page 10 for more information).

Re-election of Directors (resolutions 5 to 13)

The Directors shall retire and stand for re-election on an annual basis in accordance with the Company's Articles of Association and the UK Corporate Governance Code. Resolutions 5 to 13 (inclusive) propose such re-election of each of the Directors of the Company which will take effect at the conclusion of the AGM. The Board is content that each Non-Executive Director proposed for re-election is independent in character and there are no relationships or circumstances likely to negatively affect their character or judgement.

All of the Directors seeking re-election have wide business knowledge and bring valuable skills and experience to the Board. Following the annual evaluation exercise conducted during the year, details of which can be found on page 112 of the Annual Report 2023, the Board considers that each of the Directors proposed for re-election continues to make an effective and valuable contribution and demonstrates commitment to the role. Separate resolutions will be proposed for each of these re-elections. Details of all Directors can be found on pages 11 to 13 of this Notice and in the Company's Annual Report for 2023, with their skills and experience illustrating why each Director's contribution is, and continues to be, important to the Company's long-term sustainable success. The Board believes this information is sufficient to enable shareholders to make an informed decision on their re-election.

Auditor (resolutions 14 and 15)

The auditor of a company must be appointed or re-appointed at each general meeting at which accounts are laid, to hold office until the conclusion of the next general meeting at which the accounts are laid. Resolution 14 proposes the re-appointment of

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC) as the Company's external auditor until the conclusion of the next general meeting of the Company at which the accounts are laid.

PwC have been in office since their appointment at the AGM in May 2021. The Audit Committee has recommended the re-appointment of PwC pursuant to resolution 14.

Resolution 15 gives authority to the Directors, in accordance with standard practice, to determine the auditor's remuneration. The Directors will delegate this authority to the Audit Committee.

Authority to make political donations (resolution 16)

It is not proposed or intended to alter the Company's policy of not making political donations, within the normal meaning of that expression. However, given the breadth of the relevant provisions in the Companies Act 2006 it may be that some of the Company's activities may fall within the wide definitions under the Companies Act 2006 and, without the necessary authorisation, the Company's ability to communicate its views effectively to political audiences and to relevant interest groups could be inhibited. Such activities may include briefings at receptions or conferences – when the Company seeks to communicate its views on issues vital to its business interests – including, for example, conferences of a party political nature or of special interest groups. Accordingly, the Company believes that the authority contained in resolution 16 is necessary to allow it (and its subsidiaries) to fund activities which it is in the interests of shareholders that the Company should support. Such authority will enable the Company and its subsidiaries to be sure that they do not, because of any uncertainty as to the bodies or the activities covered by the relevant provisions of the Companies Act 2006, unintentionally commit a technical breach of the Companies Act 2006. Any expenditure which may be incurred under the authority of this resolution will be disclosed in next year's Annual Report.

Authority to allot shares (resolution 17)

The Company's Directors may only allot shares or grant rights to subscribe for, or convert any security into, shares if authorised to do so by shareholders. The authority conferred on the Directors at last year's AGM under s.551 of the Companies Act 2006 to allot shares expires on the date of the forthcoming AGM.

Accordingly, this resolution 17 seeks to renew the existing authority under s.551 of the Companies Act 2006 which would otherwise expire at the AGM to, in the case of paragraph (a)(i), give the Directors authority to allot the Company's shares or grant rights to subscribe for, or convert securities into, such shares up to a maximum nominal amount of £8,400,000 and, in the case of paragraph (a)(ii), to give the Directors authority to allot ordinary shares (including the shares referred to in paragraph (a)(i)) up to a nominal amount of £16,800,000 in connection with a pre-emptive offer to existing shareholders (including giving Directors the ability to deal with fractional entitlements to shares and overseas shareholders to whom the offer cannot be made due to legal or practical problems).

This is in accordance with the latest guidance published by the Investment Association. The amount of £8,400,000 represents approximately one third of the Company's issued ordinary share capital (excluding treasury shares) as at 21 March 2024, being the last practicable date prior to publication of this Notice (the Latest Practicable Date). The amount of £16,800,000 represents approximately two thirds of the Company's issued ordinary share capital (excluding treasury shares) as at the Latest Practicable Date. This renewed authority will remain in force until the AGM to be held in 2025 (or, if earlier, at the close of business of 8 August 2025). The Directors have continued to seek annual renewal of this authority in accordance with best practice and intend to continue to do so. The Company does not hold any treasury shares as at the Latest Practicable Date.

The Directors have no present intention to exercise this authority (other than in connection with the allotment of shares under employee share schemes). However, renewal of this authority will ensure that the Directors have flexibility in managing the Company's capital resources so that the Directors can act in the best interests of shareholders generally.

Disapplication of pre-emption rights (resolutions 18 and 19)

Under s.561(1) of the Companies Act 2006, if the Directors wish to allot ordinary shares, or grant rights to subscribe for, or convert securities into ordinary shares, or sell treasury shares for cash (other than pursuant to an employee share scheme) they must in the first instance offer them to existing shareholders in proportion to their holdings. There may be occasions, however, when the Directors need the flexibility to finance business opportunities by the issue of shares without a pre-emptive offer to existing shareholders. This cannot be done under the Companies Act 2006 unless the shareholders have first given a limited waiver of their pre-emption rights. Resolutions 18 and 19, which will be proposed as special resolutions, seek to replace the authority given to the Directors at the last AGM which would otherwise expire at the AGM, to allot equity securities for cash on a non-pre-emptive basis without first offering them to existing shareholders in proportion to their existing shareholdings.

Resolutions 18 and 19 ask shareholders to grant this limited waiver. The resolutions will be proposed as special resolutions.

Resolution 18 contains a three-part waiver. The first part is limited to the allotment of shares for cash on a pre-emptive basis to allow the Directors to make appropriate exclusions and other arrangements to resolve legal or practical problems which, for example, might arise in relation to overseas shareholders. The second part is limited to the allotment of shares for cash up to an aggregate nominal value of £2,520,000 (which includes the sale on a non-pre-emptive basis of any shares held in treasury), which represents approximately 10% of the Company's issued ordinary share capital as at the Latest Practicable Date. The third part applies to the allotment of shares for cash for the purposes of a follow-on offer when an allotment of shares has been made under the second waiver. It is limited to the allotment of shares having an aggregate nominal value of up to 20% of the nominal value of any shares allotted under the second waiver. The follow-on offer must be determined by the Directors to be of a kind contemplated by the Pre-Emption Group's 2022 Statement of Principles. The Directors confirm that they will follow the shareholder protections in section 2B and the expected features of a follow-on offer in paragraph 3 of section 2B of the Pre-Emption Group's 2022 Statement of Principles.

The waiver granted by resolution 19 is in addition to the waiver granted by resolution 18 and itself has two parts. The first part is limited to the allotment of shares for cash up to an aggregate nominal value of £2,520,000 (which includes the sale on a non-pre-emptive basis of any shares held in treasury), which represents a further 10% (approximately) of the Company's issued ordinary share capital as at the Latest Practicable Date. The first part of the waiver may only be used for an allotment of shares for cash for the purposes of financing (or refinancing, if the waiver is used within twelve months of the original transaction) a transaction which the Directors determine to be an acquisition or specified capital investment of a kind contemplated by the Pre-emption Group's 2022 Statement of Principles. The second part of the waiver applies to the allotment of shares for cash for the purposes of a follow-on offer when an allotment of shares has been made under the first part of the waiver. It is limited to the allotment of shares having an aggregate nominal value of up to 20% of the nominal value of any shares allotted under the first waiver. The follow-on offer must be determined by the Directors to be of a kind contemplated by the Pre-Emption Group's 2022 Statement of Principles. The Directors confirm that they will follow the shareholder protections in section 2B and the expected features of a follow-on offer in paragraph 3 of section 2B of the Pre-Emption Group's 2022 Statement of Principles.

The Directors have no present intention of exercising this authority, but this authority will ensure that the Directors have flexibility in managing the Company's capital resources so that the Directors can act in the best interests of shareholders generally. The authorities sought will remain in force until the AGM to be held in 2025 (or, if earlier, at the close of business of 8 August 2025).

Explanatory notes continued

Authority to purchase own shares (resolution 20)

Resolution 20, which will be proposed as a special resolution, gives the Company authority to buy back its own ordinary shares in the market as permitted by the Companies Act 2006. This renews the authority granted at last year's AGM which expires on the date of the 2024 AGM. The authority limits the number of shares that could be purchased to a maximum of 252,000,000 (representing approximately but not more than 10% of the issued share capital of the Company (excluding treasury shares) as at the Latest Practicable Date) and sets minimum and maximum prices. This authority will expire at the conclusion of the AGM of the Company in 2025 (or, if earlier, at the close of business of 8 August 2025).

The Directors have no present intention of exercising the authority to purchase the Company's ordinary shares but will keep the matter under review, taking into account the cash reserves of the Company, the Company's share price and other investment opportunities. The authority will be exercised only if the Directors believe that to do so will result in an increase in earnings per share and will be in the interests of shareholders generally.

Any purchases of ordinary shares under this authority will be by means of market purchases through the London Stock Exchange. Any shares purchased under this authority may either be cancelled or held as treasury shares. Treasury shares may subsequently be cancelled, sold for cash or used to satisfy options issued to employees pursuant to the Company's employee share schemes. As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were options over 21.0 million ordinary shares in the capital of the Company, which represent 0.83% of the Company's issued ordinary share capital (excluding treasury shares).

If the authority to purchase the Company's ordinary shares were to be exercised in full, these options would thereafter represent 0.92% of the Company's issued ordinary share capital (excluding treasury shares). The authority will only be valid until the conclusion of the next AGM in 2025 (or, if earlier, at the close of business of 8 August 2025).

Notice of general meetings (resolution 21)

The Companies Act 2006 sets the notice period required for general meetings at 21 days unless shareholders approve a shorter notice period, which cannot be less than 14 clear days. Resolution 21 seeks such approval with respect to general meetings (other than annual general meetings) of the Company. Annual general meetings will continue to be held on at least 21 clear days' notice.

The approval will be effective until the Company's next AGM in 2025, when it is intended that a similar resolution will be proposed. The Company will also need to meet the requirements for electronic voting under the Companies Act 2006 before it can call a general meeting on 14 clear days' notice. It is intended that the shorter notice period would not be used as a matter of routine for such meetings but only where the flexibility is merited by the business of the meeting and is thought to be in the interests of shareholders as a whole.

1. Documents enclosed

This Notice of Meeting is being sent to all shareholders who have requested to receive shareholder communications in paper form. It is also available on the Company's website at rentokil-initial.com. A proxy form is enclosed with this Notice.

3. Entitlement to attend and vote

Pursuant to Regulation 41 of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001, only those members entered in the register of members of the Company as at 6:30pm on 3 May 2024, or, if this meeting is adjourned, in the register of members as at 6:30pm two days, excluding non-business days, before any adjourned meeting, shall be entitled to attend and vote at the meeting in respect of the number of ordinary shares registered in their name at that time. Changes to the entries in the register of members after 6:30pm on 3 May 2024, or, if this meeting is adjourned, in the register of members after 6:30pm two days, excluding non-business days, before any adjourned meeting, shall be disregarded in determining the rights of any person to attend or vote at the meeting.

In the case of joint holders of a share, the vote of the senior shareholder who casts a vote, whether in person or by proxy, shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint holders. For this purpose seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names of the holders stand in the register.

The Company confirms that all resolutions to be proposed at the AGM will be put to the vote on a poll. All of the votes of the shareholders present will be counted, and added to those received by proxy, and the final results of the voting at the AGM will be announced through a Regulatory Information Service and will appear on our website at rentokil-initial.com as soon as possible following the meeting.

4. Proxies, corporate representatives and nominated persons

Proxies

Registered shareholders who are unable to attend the meeting may appoint a proxy to exercise all or any of their rights to attend, speak and vote on their behalf at the AGM. 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 that shareholder. A proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company (but must attend the meeting on your behalf) and may be appointed by:

• (a) completing and returning the proxy form that accompanies this Notice;
• (b) going to sharevote.co.uk and following the instructions provided; or
• (c) if you are a user of the CREST system (including CREST Personal Members), having an appropriate CREST message transmitted.

The return of a completed proxy form online or by post will not prevent a shareholder attending the AGM and voting either in person or electronically if the shareholder wishes to do so.

To appoint a proxy or to give or amend an instruction to a previously appointed proxy via the CREST system, by following the procedures described in the CREST manual available at www.euroclear.com, the CREST message must be received by the issuer's agent RA19 by 11:30am on Friday 3 May 2024. 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 issuer's agent is able to retrieve the message. After this time any change of instructions to a proxy appointed through CREST should be communicated to the proxy by other means. CREST Personal Members or other CREST sponsored members, and those CREST Members who have appointed voting service provider(s), should contact their CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s) for assistance with appointing proxies via CREST. For further information on CREST procedures, limitations and system timings, please refer to the CREST Manual. We reserve the right to 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.

IMPORTANT: To be effective your proxy form must be received by the Company's Registrar no later than 11:30am on Friday 3 May 2024. Further details regarding the appointment of proxies are given in the notes to the proxy form. The rights of shareholders in relation to the appointment of proxies as stated above do not apply to a person nominated under s.146 of the Companies Act 2006 to enjoy information rights (a Nominated Person). Such rights can only be exercised by shareholders of the Company.

Corporate representatives

Corporate shareholders may appoint one or more corporate representatives, who may exercise on its behalf all its powers, provided that if two or more representatives are appointed either:

• (a) each corporate representative is appointed to exercise the rights attached to a different share or shares held by that shareholder; or
• (b) the corporate representatives vote in respect of the same shares, and the power is treated as exercised only if they purport to exercise the power in the same way as each other (in other cases, the power is treated as unexercised).

Nominated Person(s)

Any Nominated Person to whom this Notice has been sent may, under an agreement between them and the shareholder by whom they were nominated, have a right to be appointed (or to have someone else appointed) as a proxy for the meeting. If a Nominated Person has no such proxy appointment right or does not wish to exercise it, they may, under such agreement, have a right to give instructions to the shareholder as to the exercise of voting rights.

General notes continued

5. Questions

Shareholders attending the meeting have a right to ask questions at the AGM relating to the business of the meeting. There will be opportunities to ask questions in person and online via the Lumi platform (see Appendix 2). However, the Board encourages shareholders to submit questions in advance of the AGM to ensure that the Directors can address as many questions as possible.

Pre-submitted questions can be emailed to chairman@rentokil-initial.com or posted to the Group Company Secretariat team, Compass House, Manor Royal, Crawley, West Sussex, RH10 9PY, UK and should be received by 3:00pm on Friday 3 May 2024. A recording of the meeting, including the questions asked and the answers, will be made available on the Company's website as soon as practicable following the conclusion of the AGM.

If multiple questions on the same topic are received in advance of, or during, the Meeting, the Chairman may choose to provide a single answer to address shareholder queries on the same topic.

A question may not be answered at the meeting if such answers would interfere unduly with the preparation of the meeting, involve the disclosure of confidential information, the answer has already been published on the Company's website or it is not in the interests of the Company or the good order of the meeting that the question be answered. The Chairman may also nominate a representative to answer a specific question after the meeting or refer the questioner to the Company's website.

6. Website publication of audit concerns

Under s.527 of the Companies Act 2006, shareholders meeting the threshold requirements set out in that section have the right to request publication on the Company's website of any concerns that they propose to raise at the meeting relating to:

• (a) the audit of the Company's accounts (including the auditor's report and conduct of the audit) that are to be submitted to the meeting; or
• (b) any circumstance connected with an auditor of the Company ceasing to hold office since the last AGM of the Company. The Company will publish the statement if sufficient requests have been received in accordance with s.527(2) of the Companies Act 2006. The Company may not require the shareholders requesting any such website publication to pay its expenses in complying with s.527 or 528 of the Companies Act 2006. Where the Company is required to place a statement on a website under s.527 of the Companies Act 2006, it must forward the statement to the Company's auditor not later than the time when it makes the statement available on the website. The business which may be dealt with at the AGM includes any statement that the Company has been required under s.527 of the Companies Act 2006 to publish on a website.

7. Dividends

As previously communicated, the Company no longer pays dividends by cheque and all dividends are credited directly into a shareholder's UK bank or building society account. Shareholders who historically received dividends by cheque and have not yet completed a Dividend Mandate Form will need to contact our Registrar to request a form for completion (see note 11 opposite for contact details). For any shareholder who did not submit their dividend mandate by the deadline of 29 April 2024, cash will be held in an account and they will need to contact our Registrar for the cash to be distributed to their UK bank or building society account. If you do not have a UK bank or building society account you may be able to arrange for payments to be converted and paid in your local currency. Please contact our Registrar for more information.

8. Total voting rights

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Company's issued share capital consisted of 2,524,539,885 ordinary shares, carrying one vote each.
