Explanatory Notes to the Form of Proxy

1.  As a member of the Company you are entitled to appoint a proxy or proxies to exercise all or any of your rights to attend, speak and vote at a general meeting of the Company. You can only appoint a proxy using the procedures set out in these notes. If the proxy is being appointed in relation to part of your holding only, please enter in the box next to the proxy's name the number of shares in relation to which they are authorised to act as your proxy. If this box is left blank they will be authorised in respect of your full voting entitlement. This Form of Proxy confers authority to demand or join in demanding a poll.

2.  Appointment of a proxy does not preclude you from attending the meeting and voting in person. If you have appointed a proxy and attend the meeting in person and vote, your proxy appointment will automatically be terminated.

Appointment

3.  A proxy does not need to be a member of the Company but must attend the meeting to represent you. If you wish to appoint a proxy other than the Chair of the meeting, insert their full name in the box. If you leave this space blank, the Chair of the meeting will be appointed your proxy. Where you appoint as your proxy someone other than the Chair, you are responsible for ensuring that they attend the meeting and are aware of your voting intentions. If you wish your proxy to make any comments on your behalf, you will need to appoint someone other than the Chair and give them the relevant instructions directly.

4.  You may appoint more than one proxy provided each proxy is appointed to exercise rights attached to different shares. You may not appoint more than one proxy to exercise rights attached to any one share. To appoint more than one proxy, additional Forms of Proxy may be obtained by contacting the Company's registrar, Equiniti (the 'Registrar'), or you may copy this form. If you are appointing more than one proxy, please indicate in the box next to the proxy holder's name the number of shares in relation to which they are authorised to act as your proxy and indicate by ticking the relevant box that the proxy appointment is one of multiple appointments being made. Multiple proxy appointments should be returned together in the same envelope.

5.  In the case of joint holders, where more than one of the joint holders purports to appoint a proxy, only the appointment submitted by the most senior holder will be accepted. Seniority is determined by the order in which the names of the joint holders appear in the Company's register of members in respect of the joint holding (the first-named being the most senior).

Voting Directions

6.  To direct your proxy how to vote on the resolutions mark the appropriate box with an 'X'. To abstain from voting on a resolution, select the relevant "Withheld" box. A vote withheld is not a vote in law, which means that the vote will not be counted in the calculation of votes for or against the resolution. If no voting indication is given, your proxy will vote or abstain from voting at their discretion. Your proxy will vote (or abstain from voting) as they think fit in relation to any other matter which is put before the meeting, including a motion to adjourn.

Returning your Form of Proxy

7.  To appoint a proxy using this form, the form must be:

  • Completed and signed;
  • Sent or delivered to Equiniti at Aspect House, Spencer Road, Lancing, BN99 6DA; and
  • Received by Equiniti no later than 2.00 p.m. on Tuesday 16 May 2023.

8.  In the case of a member which is a company, this Form of Proxy must be executed under its common seal or signed on its behalf by an officer of the company or an attorney for the company. Any power of attorney or any other authority under which this Form of Proxy is signed (or a duly certified copy of such power or authority) must be included with the Form of Proxy.

9.  As an alternative to completing this hardcopy Form of Proxy, you can appoint a proxy electronically by accessing our Registrar's website at www.sharevote.co.uk where full instructions on the procedure are given. The Voting ID, Task ID and Shareholder Reference Number printed on the Form of Proxy will be required in order to use this electronic proxy appointment system. Alternatively, shareholders who have already registered with Equiniti's online portfolio service, Shareview, can appoint their proxy electronically by logging on to their portfolio at www.shareview.co.uk, using their usual user ID and password, then clicking on "View" on the "My Investments" page, leading to the link to vote. For an electronic proxy appointment to be valid, your appointment must be received by Equiniti no later than 2.00 p.m. on Tuesday 16 May 2023.

  1. CREST members who wish to appoint a proxy or proxies by using the CREST electronic appointment service may do so by using the procedures described in the CREST Manual on the Euroclear website (www.euroclear.com). To be valid, the appropriate CREST message, regardless of whether it constitutes the appointment of a proxy or an amendment to the instructions given to a previously appointed proxy, must be transmitted so as to be received by the Company's agent (ID RA19) by 2.00 p.m. on Tuesday 16 May 2023. See the notes to the Notice for further information on proxy appointments through
    CREST.
  2. If you are an institutional investor, you may be able to appoint a proxy via the Proxymity platform, a process which has been agreed by the Company and approved by the Registrar. For further information regarding Proxymity, please go to www.proxymity.io. Your proxy must be lodged by 2.00 p.m. on Tuesday 16 May 2023 in order to be considered valid.
  3. If you submit more than one valid proxy appointment, the appointment received last before the latest time for the receipt of proxies will take precedence. For details of how to change your proxy instructions or revoke your proxy appointment, see the notes to the Notice.
  4. You may not use any electronic address provided in this Form of Proxy to communicate with the Company for any purposes other than those expressly stated.
