Resolution 2 which in accordance with Article 51 of the Company's Articles of Incorporation and section 258 of the Law, offers KPMG Channel Islands as auditors of the Company up for re-appointment and Resolution 9 authorises the Company to make market purchases of up to 40% of the Company's issued share capital (excluding treasury shares), being 32,407,131 ordinary shares.   Both of these resolutions 2 and 9 passed with a majority of votes cast by shareholders in favour.   In common with the 2023 AGM, the Board understands the shareholder who voted against these Resolutions did not intend to vote against them, as it was the same shareholder who voted against Resolution 9 at the 2023 AGM and who did not intend to do so. However, in accordance with Provision 4 of the UK Corporate Governance Code, the Board is engaging with this shareholder and will provide an update to the market on the views received, if different to the above understanding.

(i.)     expires at the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company after the passing of this resolution or on the expiry of 15 months from the passing of this resolution, whichever is the earlier, save that the Company may, before such expiry, make an offer or agreement which would or might require Ordinary Shares to be issued or sold after such expiry and the Directors may issue or sell Ordinary Shares in pursuance of any such offer or agreement as if the power conferred hereby had not expired; and

(ii.)      shall be limited to the issue or sale of Ordinary Shares up to 8,101,783 Ordinary Shares being approximately 10 per cent. of the issued share capital of the Company,
