Notes:

1. A "vote withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the proportion of the votes "for" and "against" a resolution.

2. The issued share capital figure used to calculate the percentage voted is 317,974,385. This is the figure as at the close of business on 13 November 2023 and excludes the number of ordinary shares held in treasury at that date.

The Company will now apply to the Court for confirmation of the Capital Reduction. The Capital Reduction will only become effective if the Court confirms the Capital Reduction and the order of the Court confirming the Capital Reduction is delivered to, and registered by, the Registrar of Companies in England and Wales.

In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.3R of the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), a copy of the resolutions passed as Special Business at the General Meeting have been submitted to the UK Listing Authority and will be available for public inspection at the National Storage Mechanism (NSM) https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism .
