NOTICE OF MEETING

EXPLANATORY NOTES TO THE NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

THE NOTES ON THE FOLLOWING PAGES GIVE AN EXPLANATION OF THE PROPOSED RESOLUTIONS.

Resolutions 1 to 11 are proposed as ordinary resolutions. For each of these resolutions to be passed, more than half of the votes cast must be in favour of the resolution. Resolutions 12 to 14 are proposed as special resolutions. For each of these resolutions to be passed, at least three-quarters of the votes cast must be in favour of the resolution.

RESOLUTION 1: REPORT AND ACCOUNTS

The first item of business is the receipt by the shareholders of the Directors' report and the accounts of the Company for the year ended 26 December 2021. The Directors' report, the accounts and the report of the Company's auditors on the accounts and on those parts of the Directors' Remuneration Report that are capable of being audited are contained within the Annual Report.

RESOLUTION 2: ANNUAL REMUNERATION REPORT

This resolution seeks shareholder approval of the Directors' Remuneration Report, excluding the summary Directors' Remuneration Policy, for the year ended 26 December 2021 as set out in the Annual Report. The Company's auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, have audited those parts of the Directors' Remuneration Report that are required to be audited and their report may be found in the Annual Report. This resolution is subject to an "advisory vote" by shareholders; in the event that the resolution is not passed, the Directors' Remuneration Policy would normally need to be reconsidered by shareholders at the next AGM.

RESOLUTIONS 3 TO 8: ELECTION AND RE-ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

In accordance with the Company's Articles of Association all directors of the Company, having not previously been elected by shareholders, are required to submit themselves for election by shareholders. Separate resolutions are proposed for each of these elections. In accordance with the UK Corporate Governance Code, all other Directors will retire and stand for re-election.

Biographical details of each of the Directors who are seeking election or re-election appear on page 8 of this document. The Board believes that each Director brings considerable and wide-ranging skills and experience to the Board as a whole and continues to make an effective and valuable contribution to the deliberations of the Board. Each Director has continued to perform effectively and demonstrate commitment to their role.

The Board carries out a review of the independence of its Directors on an annual basis. In considering the independence of the independent Non-Executive Directors proposed for re-election, the Board has taken into consideration the guidance provided by the UK Corporate Governance Code. Accordingly, the Board considers Adam Bellamy, Laura May and Julie Sneddon to be independent in accordance with the UK Corporate Governance Code.

Members of the Board who are also shareholders (i.e. Adam Bellamy, Graham Blackwell, Antony Smith, Christopher Mills, and Julie Sneddon) cannot be counted in the voting of Resolutions 3, 6 and 8 (the re-election of the independent Directors), pursuant to Article 25.1 of the Company's Articles of Association which requires the passing of both an ordinary resolution of independent shareholders, as well as an ordinary resolution of the Company. Otherwise the Company must propose a further resolution for the re-election of the proposed independent Director which must be approved by an ordinary resolution of the Company at a meeting of the Company held at least 90 days after the original vote but within 120 days of the original vote.

It is the intention of the Board that all Directors will continue to submit themselves for annual re-election by shareholders in accordance with the UK Corporate Governance Code.

RESOLUTION 9: RE-APPOINTMENT OF AUDITORS

The auditors of a company must be appointed or re-appointed at each general meeting at which the accounts are laid. Resolution proposes, on the recommendation of the Directors, the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company's auditors, until the conclusion of the next general meeting of the Company at which accounts are laid.

RESOLUTION 10: REMUNERATION OF AUDITORS

This resolution seeks shareholder consent for the Directors to set the remuneration of the auditors.

RESOLUTION 11: DIRECTORS' AUTHORITY TO ALLOT SHARES

The purpose of Resolution 11 is to renew the Directors' power to allot shares. The authority in paragraph 11.1 will allow the Directors to allot new shares and grant rights to subscribe for, or convert other securities into, shares up to approximately one third (33.3%) of the total issued ordinary share capital of the Company (exclusive of treasury shares) which as at 29 March 2022, being the latest practicable date prior to publication of this Notice of Meeting, is equivalent to a nominal value of £227,892.

The authority in paragraph 11.2 will allow the Directors to allot new shares and grant rights to subscribe for, or convert other securities into, shares only in connection with a rights issue up to a further nominal value of £227,892, which is equivalent to approximately one third (33.3%) of the total issued ordinary share capital of the Company (exclusive of treasury shares) as at 29 March 2022. The Company currently holds no shares in treasury.

There are no present plans to undertake a rights issue or to allot new shares other than in connection with employee share incentive plans. The Directors consider it desirable to have the maximum flexibility permitted by corporate governance guidelines to respond to continuing issues surrounding COVID-19 (coronavirus), market developments and to enable allotments to take place to finance business opportunities as they arise.

If the resolution is passed the authority will expire on the earlier of 31 July 2023 and the end of the Annual General Meeting in 2023.

EXPLANATORY NOTES TO THE NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING CONTINUED

RESOLUTION 12: DISAPPLICATION OF PRE-EMPTION RIGHTS

If the Directors wish to allot new shares and other equity securities, or sell treasury shares, for cash (other than in connection with an employee share scheme), company law requires that these shares are offered first to shareholders in proportion to their existing holdings.

Resolution 12 deals with the authority of the Directors to allot new shares or other equity securities pursuant to the authority given by Resolution 11, or sell treasury shares, for cash without the shares or other equity securities first being offered to shareholders in proportion to their existing holdings. Such authority shall only be used in connection with a pre-emptive offer, or otherwise, up to an aggregate nominal amount of £34,183, being approximately 5% of the total issued ordinary share capital of the Company as at 29 March 2022. As at 29 March 2022 the Company holds no treasury shares.

The Pre-Emption Group's Statement of Principles supports the annual disapplication of pre-emption rights in respect of allotments of shares and other equity securities (and sales of treasury shares for cash) representing no more than 5% of issued ordinary share capital (exclusive of treasury shares), to be used for general corporate purposes. If the resolution is passed, the authority will expire at the end of the next Annual General Meeting or on 31 July 2023, whichever is the earlier.

The Board considers the authority in Resolution 12 to be appropriate in order to allow the Company flexibility to navigate the ongoing challenges presented by the coronavirus crisis, finance business opportunities or to conduct a rights issue or other pre-emptive offer without the need to comply with the strict requirements of the statutory pre-emption provisions.

The Board intends to adhere to the provisions in the Pre-Emption Group's Statement of Principles not to allot shares for cash on a non-pre-emptive basis (other than pursuant to a rights issue or pre-emptive offer) in excess of an amount equal to 7.5% of the total issued ordinary share capital of the Company within a rolling three-year period other than (i) after prior consultation with shareholders or (ii) in connection with an acquisition or specified capital investment which is announced contemporaneously with the allotment or which has taken place in the preceding six-month period and is disclosed in the announcement of the allotment.

RESOLUTION 13: PURCHASE OF OWN SHARES

The effect of Resolution 13 is to renew the authority granted to the Company to purchase its own ordinary shares, up to a maximum of 6,836,778 ordinary shares, until the next Annual General Meeting or 31 July 2023, whichever is the earlier. This represents 10% of the ordinary shares in issue (excluding shares held in treasury) as at 29 March 2022, being the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this Notice. The Company's exercise of this authority is subject to the stated upper and lower limits on the price payable, the upper limit being the price stipulated in Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052 as referred to in Article 5(6) of the retained EU law version of the Market Abuse Regulation, and the Listing Rules.

Pursuant to the 2006 Act, the Company can hold any shares which are repurchased as treasury shares and either re-sell them for cash, cancel them, either immediately or at a point in the future, or use them for the purposes of its employee share schemes. Holding the repurchased shares as treasury shares will give the Company the ability to re-sell or transfer them in the future and will provide the Company with additional flexibility in the management of its capital base. No dividends will be paid on, and no voting rights will be exercised in respect of, treasury shares. Shares held as treasury shares will not automatically be cancelled and will not be taken into account in future calculations of earnings per share (unless they are subsequently re-sold or transferred out of treasury).

The Directors consider it desirable and in the Company's interests for shareholders to grant this authority. The Directors have no present intention to exercise this authority, and will only do so if and when conditions are favourable with a view to enhancing net asset value per share.

The Company will not, save in accordance with a predetermined, irrevocable and non-discretionary programme, repurchase shares in the period immediately preceding the preliminary announcement of its annual or interim results as dictated by the Listing Rules or Market Abuse Regulation or, if shorter, between the end of the financial period concerned and the time of a relevant announcement or, except in accordance with the Listing Rules and the Market Abuse Regulation, at any other time when the Directors would be prohibited from dealing in shares.

As at 29 March 2022, being the latest practicable date prior to publication of this Notice, there were no outstanding warrants or options to subscribe for ordinary shares in the Company and the Company did not hold any treasury shares.

NOTICE OF MEETING

RESOLUTION 14: NOTICE OF GENERAL MEETINGS

Under the 2006 Act, as amended, the notice period required for all general meetings of the Company is 21 days, though shareholders can approve a shorter notice period for general meetings that are not Annual General Meetings, which cannot however be less than 14 clear days. Annual General Meetings will continue to be held on at least 21 clear days' notice. The shorter notice period for which shareholder approval is sought under Resolution 14 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 to the advantage of shareholders as a whole. In the event that a general meeting is called on less than 21 days' notice, the Company will meet the requirements for electronic voting under The Companies (Shareholders' Rights) Regulations 2009. Shareholder approval will be effective until the Company's next Annual General Meeting, when it is intended that a similar resolution will be proposed.

Changes to the entries in the register of members after 12.15 p.m. on 2 May 2022 or, if this meeting is adjourned, in the register of members 48 hours before the time of any adjourned meeting, shall be disregarded in determining the rights of any person to attend or vote at the meeting.

3. A member entitled to attend and vote at the Annual General Meeting may appoint a proxy (who need not be a member of the Company) to attend and to speak and vote on his or her behalf. A shareholder may appoint more than one proxy in relation to the Annual General Meeting provided that each proxy is appointed to exercise the rights attached to a share or shares held by that shareholder. A form of proxy, which may be used to make such appointment and give proxy instructions, accompanies this Notice. Lodging a form of proxy will not prevent a member from attending the meeting and voting in person. In order to be valid an appointment of proxy must be returned by one of the following methods:

3.1 by sending the form of proxy enclosed with this document by post or (during normal business hours only) by hand to Computershare Investor Services PLC, The Pavilions, Bridgwater Road, Bristol BS99 6ZY, not fewer than 48 hours before the time of the meeting.

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.

If a Nominated Person has no such proxy appointment right or does not wish to exercise it, he/she may under any such agreement have a right to give instructions to the shareholder as to the exercise of voting rights.

2. If you are a Nominated Person, the statement of the rights of shareholders in relation to the appointment of proxies in note 3 above does not apply. The rights described in those paragraphs may only be exercised by registered shareholders of the Company.
