The Board notes that whilst Resolutions 15 and 16 (disapplication of pre-emption rights) were passed with the requisite majority, for the purposes of the UK Corporate Governance Code (the "Code") more than 20% of the votes cast were not in favour of Resolution 16.
The Board notes that this resolution reflects the Pre-Emption Group Guidelines published in 2022 (the "Guidelines") but acknowledges that shareholders may apply their own policies in relation to the disapplication of pre-emption rights which may differ from the Guidelines. In accordance with the Code, the Board will engage with shareholders to better understand the reason behind this voting outcome and will provide an update within six months of the Annual General Meeting.
Notes:
1. Any proxy appointments giving discretion to the Chairman of the Meeting have been included in the "For" totals above.
2. A vote "Withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the votes "For" or "Against" a resolution.
3. Indicates Special Resolutions requiring a 75% majority to be passed.
4. The Company's total ordinary shares in issue as at 9 December 2025, was 200,000,000 ordinary shares of 1 pence each, of which 1,592,792 ordinary shares are held as Treasury Shares. Therefore, the total voting rights are 198,407,208 ordinary shares (ordinary shareholders are entitled to one vote per ordinary share held).
