IMPORTANT INFORMATION

TIME AND PLACE OF MEETING

Notice is given that a General Meeting of the Shareholders will be held at The Clubhouse, 8 St James's Square, London, SW1Y 4JU at 10.00 a.m. on 24 September 2021.

COVID-19, SHAREHOLDER ATTENDANCE, VOTING AND PROXY APPOINTMENT

The Company continues to monitor the COVID-19 situation, including UK Government legislation and guidance, and will continue to do so in the lead up to the General Meeting. The health of our Shareholders, employees and stakeholders is extremely important to us. Whilst as at the date of this document all restrictions on public meetings have been lifted, there is no guarantee that circumstances will not change between the date of this document and the date of the General Meeting. If this were to happen the Company may have no option but to take the decision that Shareholders, advisers and other guests will not be allowed to attend the General Meeting in person and anyone seeking to attend the General Meeting will be refused entry. In these circumstances the Company may arrange for the minimum quorum of two Shareholders necessary to conduct the business of the General Meeting to be present in person at the General Meeting and appropriate social distancing guidelines will be observed.

Shareholders are strongly encouraged therefore to appoint the Chairman of the General Meeting as their proxy with directions as to how to cast their vote on the Resolutions proposed. If a Shareholder appoints someone else as their proxy, that proxy may not be able to attend the General Meeting in person or cast that Shareholder's vote. Please refer to the detailed notes contained in the Notice of General Meeting and the Form of Proxy.

In the event that the Company is forced, due to the reimplementation of COVID-19 restrictions, to restrict physical attendance at the General Meeting, a further announcement will be made as to what alternative arrangements will be put in place and how members will be able to ask questions which they may have otherwise asked at the General Meeting in person regarding the Resolutions.

The Voting Record Time (being the date and time that persons eligible to vote at the General Meeting are registered Shareholders) is 6:00pm on 22 September 2021.

A Form of Proxy for use in connection with the General Meeting is enclosed and, to be valid, must be completed, signed and returned, in accordance with the instructions thereon, to the Company's registrars at Link Group, 10th Floor, Central Square, 29 Wellington Street, Leeds, LS1 4DL as soon as possible and, in any event, by no later than 10.00 a.m. on 22 September 2021. Completion and return of a Form of Proxy will not preclude Shareholders from attending and voting at the General Meeting in person should they so wish and should the continued relaxation of COVID-19 restrictions allow. If you do not complete and return a valid Form of Proxy, no-one else may vote on your behalf. For full details of the procedure for appointing a proxy, please see the notes to the Notice of General Meeting and the Form of Proxy. Forms of Proxy received later than the specified time will be invalid.

In order for instructions made using the CREST voting service to be valid, the appropriate CREST message (a "CREST Voting Instruction") must be properly authenticated in accordance with Euroclear's specifications and must contain the information required for such instructions, as described in the CREST Manual (available via www. euroclear.com).

To be effective, the CREST Voting Instruction must be transmitted so as to be received by the Company's agent (Link Group) no later than 10:00 a.m. on 22 September 2021. For this purpose, the time of receipt will be taken to be the time (as determined by the time stamp applied to the CREST Voting Instruction by the CREST applications host) from which the Company's agent is able to retrieve the CREST Voting Instruction by enquiry to CREST in the manner prescribed by CREST.
