Notes:
1. As at the
date of the AGM, the Company had 115,202,254 ordinary shares in issue. The Company did not
hold any shares in treasury and therefore the number of total
voting rights as at the date of the AGM was
115,202,254.
2. The full
text of the resolutions is set out in the notice of annual general
meeting, which can be found on pages 176 to
181 of the 2023 Annual
Report.
3. Percentages
are expressed as a proportion of the total votes cast.
4. A vote
withheld is not a vote in law and is not included in the
calculation of the votes "For" or "Against" the
resolution.
5. Any proxy
appointments which gave discretion to the Chair have been included
in the "For" total.
A copy of the resolutions passed at
the Annual General Meeting will be submitted to the National
Storage Mechanism in accordance with Listing Rule
