Notes:
1. Any proxy arrangement which gave discretion to the Chairman has been included in the "for" totals.
2. A "Vote withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the percentage of shares voted "For" or "Against" any resolution.
3. The number of shares in issue at close of business on 29 April 2025 was 300,000,000 (the "Share Capital"). On this date as at close of business, the Company holds 3,766,052 shares in treasury. Therefore, the total number of ordinary shares with voting rights was 296,233,948.
A copy of the resolutions passed at the AGM concerning items other than ordinary business will be submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and be available shortly for inspection.
