If you wish to appoint a person other than the Chair of the meeting, please insert the name of your chosen proxy holder in the space provided in Section 1 on the prior page. If this form is returned without an indication as to how the proxy shall vote on any particular matter, the proxy will exercise their discretion as to whether, and if so how, they vote (or if this proxy form has been issued in respect of a designated account for a shareholder, the proxy will exercise their discretion as to whether, and if so how, they vote).
