Notes to the Form of Proxy

• 1. You may appoint one or more proxies of your own choice, if you are unable to attend the meeting but would like to vote. If such an appointment is made, delete the words "the Chairman of the meeting" and insert the name(s) of the person or persons appointed as proxy/proxies in the space provided. A proxy need not be a member of the Company. If no name is entered, the return of this form duly signed will authorise the Chairman of the meeting to act as your proxy.
• 1. In the case of a corporation, this form of proxy must be executed under its common seal or under the hand of a duly authorised officer or attorney, stating their capacity (e.g. director, secretary).
• 1. In order that this form of proxy shall be valid, it must be deposited (together with any power of attorney or other authority under which it is signed or a notarially certified copy of such power or a copy certified in accordance with the Powers of Attorney Act 1971 or in some other manner approved by the directors) at the Company's registrars c/o Capita Registrars, PO Box 25, Beckenham, Kent BR3 4BR, not later than 48 hours before the time appointed for the meeting. The completion and return of a form of proxy will not, however, preclude shareholders from attending and voting in person at the meeting or at any adjournment thereof, should they wish to do so.
• 1. In the case of joint holders of a share, any one holder may sign the form of proxy, but the vote of the senior who votes whether in person or by proxy, shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint holders, and for this purpose seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names stand in the Register of Members in respect of the share. In any event, the names of all joint holders should be stated on the proxy form.
• 1. The "vote withheld" option is provided to enable you to instruct your proxy not to vote on any particular resolution. However, it should be noted that a "vote withheld" in this way is not a vote in law and will not be counted in the calculation of the proportion of votes "for" and "against" a resolution.
• 1. Returning the form of proxy without any indication as to how the proxy appointed shall vote on any particular resolution, will mean that such proxy can vote as he or she wishes or can decide not to vote at all.
• 1. If the proxy is being appointed in relation to less than your full voting entitlement, please enter in the box next to the proxy holder's name the number of shares in relation to which they are authorised to act as your proxy. If left blank, your proxy will be deemed to be authorised in respect of your full voting entitlement (or if this form of

proxy has been issued in respect of a designated account for a shareholder, the full voting entitlement for that designated account).

1. To appoint more than one proxy (an) additional form(s) of proxy may be obtained by contacting the Company's registrars' helpline on 0871 6640300 (calls cost 10p per minute plus network extras) or you may photocopy this form. Please indicate in the box next to the proxy holder's name the number of shares in relation to which they are authorised to act as your proxy. Please also indicate by ticking the box provided if the proxy instruction is one of multiple instructions being given. All forms must be signed and should be returned together in the same envelope.
