Notes
-
If you wish to appoint a proxy other than the Chairman of the General Meeting insert the name in the space provided and delete the Chairman of the General Meeting. A proxy need not be a member of the Company.
-
You may, if you wish, appoint more than one proxy, but each must be appointed in respect of a specified number of shares within your holding. If you wish to do this, each proxy must be appointed by means of a separate form. Additional forms may be obtained from the registrars by telephoning Capita Registrars between 8.30 a.m. and 5.30 p.m. (London time) Monday to Friday (except UK public holidays) on 0871 664 0300 from within the UK or +44 20 8639 3399 if calling from outside the UK. Calls to the 0871 664 0300 number cost 10 pence per minute (including VAT) plus your service provider's network extras. Calls to the helpline from outside the UK will be charged at applicable international rates. Different charges may apply to calls from mobile telephones and calls may be recorded and randomly monitored for security and training purposes. The helpline cannot provide advice on the merits of the Disposal (as described in the shareholder circular dated 1 April 2011) nor give any financial, legal or tax advice. Alternatively you may photocopy this form the required number of times before completing it. When appointing more than one proxy you must fill in the blank space provided on each form to indicate the number of your shares in respect of which the proxy is to be appointed. If you fail to do so, the appointment will be rejected as invalid. You must also tick the box on each form to indicate it is one of more than one appointment in respect of your holding. All the forms should be returned in the same envelope accompanied by any power of attorney under which they are executed (if applicable). If you are only appointing one proxy, you can cross out all reference to the number of shares or leave the box blank for the number of shares uncompleted, in which case the appointment will be taken to be for your full holding. 3. In the case of a corporation this proxy must be given under its common seal or signed on its behalf by a duly authorised officer or an attorney. (Continued overleaf)
