EXPLANATORY NOTES - GENERAL

A member of the Company who is entitled to attend the AGM is entitled to appoint one or more proxies to attend, speak and vote in their place. A proxy does not need to be a member of the Company but must attend the AGM to represent you. 

Details of how to appoint the Chairman of the AGM or another person as your proxy using the proxy form are set out in the notes to the proxy form.  If you wish your proxy to speak on your behalf at the AGM, you will need to appoint your own choice of proxy (not the Chairman) and give your instructions directly to them.  A member may appoint more than one proxy to attend the AGM, provided that each proxy is appointed to exercise rights attached to different shares.

A form of proxy is enclosed which should be completed in accordance with the instructions.  To be valid this form of proxy and any power of attorney or of the authority under which it is executed (or a duly certified copy of such power of attorney) must be lodged Computershare Investor Services (Guernsey) Limited, c/o The Pavilions, Bridgewater Road, Bristol, BS99 6ZY or by e-mail to ExternalProxyQueries@computershare.co.uk - Alternatively, completed forms can be sent to the registered office of the Company c/o Apex Administration (Guernsey) Limited, 1 Royal Plaza, Royal Avenue, St Peter Port, Guernsey, GY1 2HL.  All proxies must be received by no later than 10:00 BST on 1 July 2024, being 48 hours before the time appointed for the AGM.

CREST offers a proxy voting service of which the Company's Registrar, Computershare Investor Services (Guernsey) Limited are an agent.

Shareholders are advised that, upon receipt of their proxy form from the Company, if they wish to appoint a proxy or to give or amend an instruction to a previously appointed proxy via the CREST system, the CREST message must be received by the issuer's agent (ID 3RA50) two days prior to the date of the Company's AGM at the latest. For this purpose, the time of receipt will be taken to be the time (as determined by the timestamp applied to the message by the CREST Applications Host) from which the issuer's agent is able to retrieve the message. After this time any change of instructions to a proxy appointed through CREST should be communicated to the proxy by other means.

CREST Personal Members or other CREST sponsored members, and those CREST Members who have appointed voting service provider(s) should contact their CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s) for assistance with appointing proxies via CREST.

For further information on CREST procedures, limitations and system timings, please refer to the CREST Manual. We may treat as invalid a proxy appointment sent by CREST in the circumstances set out in Regulation 41 of the Uncertificated Securities (Guernsey) Regulations 2009.

Please note that the AGM will not be made available by way of publicly available real-time broadcast.

As at 30 May 2024 (being the last business day prior to the publication of the Notice), the Company's issued share capital consists of 85,503,021 Ordinary Shares, carrying one vote each.
