*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.
The Board notes the level of votes
cast against resolutions 17 and 18, relating to the authority for
the Company to purchase own shares (resolution 17), and the
authority to call a general meeting (other than an
AGM) on not less than 14 clear days' notice (resolution 18).
Resolutions 17 and 18 were special
resolutions which required at least 75% of the votes cast to be in
favour of the resolutions. The Company will engage with
shareholders to fully understand the reasons for this and provide
an update within six months of the AGM as required by the Corporate
Governance Code 2018.
The Board is always open to
constructive dialogue with shareholders and is grateful to all
those who took the time to consider and vote on the resolutions
proposed.
In accordance with Listing Rule
9.6.2R of the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), a copy of the
resolutions passed as Special Business at the AGM have been
submitted to the UK Listing Authority and will be available for
public inspection at the National Storage Mechanism (NSM)
