Notes to the Notice of Annual General Meeting

1. A shareholder entitled to attend this meeting may attend the Meeting in person or may appoint one or more persons as his/her proxy to attend, speak and/or vote on his/her behalf. A proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company.
   If multiple proxies are appointed, they must not be appointed in respect of the same shares. The appointment of a proxy will not prevent a shareholder from attending the Meeting and voting in person if he/ she so wishes. A shareholder present in person or by proxy shall have one vote on a show of hands and on a poll every shareholder present in person or by proxy shall have one vote for every ordinary share of which he/she is the holder. To appoint more than one proxy, a separate form of proxy in relation to each appointment should be completed (shareholders may photocopy the form of proxy), stating clearly on each form of proxy how many ordinary shares the proxy is appointed in relation to. A failure to specify the number of ordinary shares each proxy appointment relates to
   or specifying an aggregate number of ordinary shares in excess of those held by the shareholder will result in the proxy appointment being invalid. Shareholders are requested to indicate on the form of proxy if the proxy instruction is one of multiple instructions being given. All forms of proxy must be signed and should be returned together in the same envelope.
2. In the case of joint holders, the signature of only one of the joint holders is required on the proxy form and, where more than one joint holder has signed the proxy form or where more than one joint holder purports to appoint a proxy, only the signature of or the appointment submitted by the most senior holder will be accepted to the exclusion of the other joint holders. 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).
3. Only those shareholders registered on the Register of Members of the Company by close of business on 23 January 2024 (or in the event that the meeting is adjourned, only those shareholders registered on the Register of Members of the Company as at close of business on the day which is two days prior to the adjourned meeting (weekends and public holidays excluded)) shall be entitled to attend in person or by proxy and vote at the Annual General Meeting in respect of the number of shares registered in their name at that time.

Changes to entries on the Register of Members after the specified time shall be disregarded in determining the rights of any person to attend or vote at the Annual General Meeting or, if adjourned, at the adjourned meeting.

4. Members can appoint a proxy online at: www.signalshares.com.

Members using the website to appoint a proxy must do so no later than 48 hours before the time of the Meeting or any adjournment of that meeting (weekends and public holidays excluded). Members appointing a proxy online must do so by 10:00 a.m. on 23 January 2024. In order to appoint a proxy using this website, members will need their Investor Code, which they can find on their share certificate. If you need help with voting online, please contact our Registrar, Link Group, by emailing [e-mail] or on 0371 664 0300 if calling from the UK, or [phone] if calling from outside of the UK. Calls are charged at the standard geographic rate and will vary by provider. Calls outside the UK are charged at the applicable international rate. Link Group are open between 9:00 a.m. and

5:30 p.m., Monday to Friday excluding public holidays in England and Wales.

If you are an institutional investor you may also be able to appoint a proxy electronically 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 10:00 a.m. on 23 January 2024 in order to be considered valid or, if the meeting is adjourned, by the time which is 48 hours (weekends and public holidays excluded) before the time of the adjourned meeting. Before you can appoint a proxy via this process you will need to have agreed to Proxymity's associated terms and conditions. It is important that you read these carefully as you will be bound by them and they will govern the electronic appointment of your proxy. An electronic proxy appointment via the Proxymity platform may be revoked completely by sending an authenticated message via the platform instructing the removal of your proxy vote.

You may request a hard copy form of proxy directly from the Registrar by emailing shareholderenquiries@ linkgroup.co.uk or by telephone on 0371 664 0300. To be valid, a hard copy form of proxy or other instrument appointing a proxy, together with any power of attorney

or other authority under which it is signed or a certified copy thereof, must be received by post or (during normal business hours only) by hand by the Registrar at Link Group, PXS1, Central Square, 29 Wellington Street, Leeds LS1 4DL, no later than 48 hours (business days only) before the time of the Annual General Meeting or any adjournment of that meeting. This form must be completed and lodged with the Company's registrar (at the address above) no later than 10:00 a.m. on 23 January 2024. A hard copy form of proxy may not be returned by email. Members wishing to appoint a proxy electronically may do so at the website above.

5. CREST members who wish to appoint a proxy or proxies by utilising the CREST electronic proxy appointment service may do so for this meeting and any adjournment of it by following the procedures described in the CREST Manual (available via www.euroclear.com). CREST personal members or other CREST sponsored members, and those CREST members who have appointed a voting service provider(s), should refer to their CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s), who will be able to take the appropriate action on their behalf. In order for a proxy appointment or instruction made by means of CREST to be valid, the appropriate CREST message (a "CREST Proxy 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. The message, in order to be valid, must be transmitted so as to be received by the Company's agent ID RA10 by the latest time for receipt of proxy appointments specified in note 4 above.

For this purpose, the time of receipt will be taken to be the time (as determined by the timestamp applied to the message by the CREST Applications Host) from which the Company's agent is able to retrieve the message by enquiry to CREST in the manner prescribed by CREST. After this time, any change of instructions to proxies appointed through CREST should be communicated to the appointee through other means. CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers should note that Euroclear does not make available special procedures in CREST for any particular messages.

Normal system timings and limitations will therefore apply in relation to the input of CREST Proxy Instructions. It

is the responsibility of the CREST members concerned to take (or, if the CREST member is a CREST personal

member or sponsored member or has appointed a voting service provider(s), to procure that his CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s) take(s)) such action as shall be necessary to ensure that a message is transmitted by means of the CREST system by any particular time. In this connection, CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers are referred, in particular, to those sections of the CREST Manual concerning practical limitations of the CREST system and timings.

The Company may treat as invalid a CREST Proxy Instruction in the circumstances set out in Regulation 35(5)(a) of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001.

1. Unless otherwise indicated on the Form of Proxy, CREST voting , Proxymity or any other electronic voting channel instruction, the proxy will vote as they think fit or, at their discretion, withhold from voting.
2. Shareholders satisfying the thresholds in Section 338 of the Companies Act 2006 may require the Company to give, to shareholders of the Company entitled to receive notice of the Annual General Meeting, notice of a resolution which those shareholders intend to move (and which may properly be moved) at the Annual General Meeting. A resolution may properly be moved at the Annual General Meeting unless (i) it would, if passed,
   be ineffective (whether by reason of any inconsistency with any enactment or the Company's constitution or otherwise); (ii) it is defamatory of any person; or (iii) it is frivolous or vexatious. A request made pursuant to this right may be in hard copy or electronic form, must identify the resolution of which notice is to be given, must be authenticated by the person(s) making it and must be received by the Company not later than six weeks before the date of the Annual General Meeting.
3. Shareholders satisfying the thresholds in Section 338A of the Companies Act 2006 may request the Company to include in the business to be dealt with at the Annual General Meeting any matter (other than a proposed resolution) which may properly be included in the business at the Annual General Meeting. A matter may properly be included in the business at the Annual General Meeting unless (i) it is defamatory of any person or (ii) it is frivolous or vexatious. A request made pursuant to this right may be in hard copy or electronic form, must identify grounds for the request, must be authenticated by the person(s) making it and must be received by the Company not later

than six weeks before the date of the Annual General Meeting.

1. Any question relevant to the business of the Annual General Meeting may be asked at the Meeting by anyone permitted to speak at the Meeting. Alternatively, questions may be submitted in advance by letter addressed to
2. 
   the Company Secretary at the registered office or by emailing at [e-mail] by no later than 10:00 a.m. on 19 January 2024. We will endeavour to answer questions received in advance, and ahead of the proxy voting deadline, by publishing responses on thematic topics on our website.
3. In accordance with Section 319A of the Companies Act 2006, the Company must cause any question relating to the business being dealt with at the Meeting put by a shareholder attending the Meeting to be answered. No such answer need be given if: (a) to do so would:
4. 1. interfere unduly with the preparation for the Meeting, or (ii) involve the disclosure of confidential information;
   1. the answer has already been given on a website in the form of an answer to a question; or (c) it is undesirable in the interests of the Company or the good order of the Meeting that the question be answered.
5. A person to whom this Notice is sent who is a person nominated under Section 146 of the Companies Act 2006 to enjoy information rights (a "Nominated Person") may, under an agreement between him/ her and the shareholder by whom he/ she was nominated, have a right to be appointed (or to have someone else appointed) as a proxy for the Annual General Meeting. If a Nominated Person has no such proxy appointment right or does not wish to exercise it, he/ she may, under any such agreement, have a right to give instructions to the shareholder as to the exercise of voting rights. The statements of the rights of shareholders in relation to the appointment of proxies in notes 1 to 4 above do not apply to a Nominated Person. The rights described in those notes can only be exercised by registered shareholders of the Company.
6. As at 5 December 2023, the Company's issued voting share capital and total voting rights amounted to 11,796,902 ordinary shares each carrying one vote each (excluding 3,318,207 shares which are held in treasury by the Company). Therefore, the total number of voting rights in the Company as at 5 December 2023 is 11,796,902.

1. A shareholder that is a corporation can only attend and vote at the meeting in person through one or more representatives appointed in accordance with Section
   323 of the Companies Act 2006, as amended. Any such representative should bring to the Meeting written evidence of his appointment, such as a certified copy of a board resolution of, or a letter from, the corporation concerned confirming the appointment. A person authorised by a corporation is entitled to exercise
   (on behalf of the corporation) the same powers as the corporation could exercise if it were an individual shareholder of the Company. On a vote on a resolution
   on a show of hands, each authorised person has the same voting rights as the corporation would be entitled to. On a vote on a resolution on a poll, if more than one authorised person seeks to exercise a power in respect of the same shares, if they purport to exercise the power in the same way as each other, the power is treated as exercised in that way; and if they do not purport to exercise the power in the same way as each other, the power is treated as not exercised.
2. Shareholders should note that it is possible that, pursuant to requests made by shareholders of the Company under section 527 of the Companies Act 2006, the Company may be required to publish on a website a statement setting out any matter relating to: (i) the audit of the Company's accounts (including the auditor's report and the conduct of the audit) that are to be laid before the Annual General Meeting; or (ii) any circumstances connected with an auditor of the Company ceasing to hold office since the previous meeting at which annual accounts and reports were laid in accordance with section 437 of the Companies Act 2006. The Company may not require the shareholders requesting any such website publication to pay its expenses in complying with sections 527 or 528 of the Companies Act 2006. Where the Company is required to place a statement on a website under section 527 of the Companies Act 2006, it must forward the statement to the Company's auditor not later than the time when it makes the statement available on the website. The business which may be dealt with at the Annual General Meeting includes any statement that the Company has been required under section 527 of the Companies Act 2006 to publish on a website.
3. The Annual Report, a copy of this Notice and other information required by section 311A of the Companies Act 2006, including the total number of shares in the
