*Special Resolution
Notes:
1. The percentages above are rounded to two decimal places.
2. Votes "for" include discretionary votes.
3. A vote withheld is not a vote in law and is not counted in
the calculation of the proportion of votes "for" and "against" a
resolution.
4. The number of ordinary shares in issue at 11.00 am on 20 July
2023 was 578,757,121 of which none are held in treasury. Therefore
the number of ordinary shares with voting rights at 11:00am on 20
July 2023 was 578,757,121.
Resolution 8
Whilst Resolution 8, to re-elect Neil Johnson, was passed with a
clear majority, the Board recognises that there was also a
significant vote against this resolution. The Board will seek to
engage with those shareholders who voted against this resolution to
address their concerns.
The Board unanimously supports the Chair's re-election. We will
continue to engage with shareholders and will publish an update in
accordance with the UK Corporate Governance Code, within six months
of the AGM with a final summary provided in the Company's next
Annual Report.
In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2R, a copy of the
resolutions, other than those concerning ordinary business, passed
by the Company at the AGM held on 20 July 2023, has been submitted
to the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for
