Please note that a vote withheld is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of votes for and against a resolution.

The total number of shares in issue of the Company on the record date of 15 July 2021 for being eligible to vote at the AGM was 1,000,839,779 ordinary shares.

We are pleased that all the resolutions proposed at the AGM were passed with strong shareholder support. We note that the vote in favour of the resolution to approve the Directors' Remuneration Report fell just below the 80% level. Prior to the AGM, we undertook a detailed and extensive consultation with shareholders regarding remuneration for FY22 onwards to gain an understanding of their views. Following the AGM, we will implement the refreshed Directors' Remuneration Policy, which was approved with a vote in favour of 81.46%, and invite shareholders to continue to engage with us as part of an ongoing constructive dialogue.
