1. 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.
2. There were 993,116,117 ordinary shares of 50 pence each in
issue as at 23 July 2015. Every shareholder has one vote for every
ordinary share held.
3. Following the passing of Resolution 18, and as described in
detail in the explanatory notes to the Notice of Annual General
Meeting and Annual Financial Report announcement, both published on
22 June 2015, the Company today confirms that it has today entered
into:
- a deed of release in favour of the Company's shareholders;
and
- a deed of release in favour of past and present Directors of
the
Company (being related parties of the Company for the purposes
of the Listing Rules and which deed constitutes a smaller related
party transaction under LR.11.1.10R of the Listing Rules).
