NOTES

  • (1) Every holder has the right to appoint one person(s) of their choice, who need not be a shareholder, as his proxy to exercise all or any of his rights, to attend, speak and vote on their behalf at the meeting. Additionally, each holder may appoint more than one or more proxies provided that each proxy is appointed to exercise rights attached to different shares.

  • (2) The Board recommends however that members should appoint only the "Chairman of the meeting" as their proxy, rather than appointing one or more named persons who may not be able to attend.

  • (3) If the proxy is being appointed in relation to less than your full voting entitlement, please enter the number of shares in relation to which they are authorised to act as your proxy. If left blank your proxy will be deemed to be authorised in respect of your full voting entitlement (or if this proxy form has been issued in respect of a designated account for a shareholder, the full voting entitlement for that designated account).

  • (4) To appoint more than one proxy you may photocopy this form. Please indicate the proxy holder's name and the number of shares in relation to which they are authorised to act as your proxy (which, in aggregate, should not exceed the number of shares held by you). Please also indicate if the proxy instruction is one of multiple instructions being given.

  • (5) The right to appoint a proxy does not apply to persons whose shares are held on their behalf by another person and who have been nominated to receive communications from the Company in accordance with section 146 of the Companies Act 2006 ("nominated persons"). Nominated persons may have a right under an agreement with the registered shareholder who holds shares on their behalf to be appointed (or to have someone else appointed) as a proxy. Alternatively, if nominated persons do not have such a right, or do not wish to exercise it, they may have a right under such an agreement to give instructions to the person holding the shares as to the exercise of voting rights.

  • (6) The "Vote Withheld" option is provided to enable you to abstain on any particular resolution. However, it should be noted that a "Vote Withheld" is not a vote in law and will not be counted in the calculation of the proportion of votes "For" and "Against"

    a resolution.

  • (7) On receipt of this form duly signed, without any specific direction as to how you wish your votes to be cast, or with 'Discretionary' selected, you will be deemed to have authorised your proxy to vote, or abstain from voting, as they think fit.

  • (8) Entitlement to attend and vote at the meeting and the number of votes which may be cast thereat will be determined by reference to the Register of Members of the Company at close of business on the day which is two working days before the day of the meeting or the adjourned meeting. Changes to entries on the Register of Members after that time shall be disregarded in determining the rights of any person to attend and vote at the meeting.

  • (9) Shares held in uncertificated form (i.e. in CREST) may be voted through the CREST Proxy Voting Service in accordance with the procedures set out in the CREST manual. Shareholders wishing to vote online should visitwww.sharevote.co.ukand follow the instructions.

  • (10) The completion and return of this form will not preclude a member from attending the meeting and voting in person. If you attend the meeting in person, your proxy vote will automatically be terminated.

    Institutional investors may also be able to appoint a proxy electronically via the Proxymity platform - please go towww.proxymity.io

  • (11) The Form of Proxy (see over) must arrive at Equiniti Limited, Aspect House, Spencer Road, Lancing BN99 6DA during usual business hours, accompanied by any power of attorney under which it is executed (if applicable), no later than 12 noon on 26 May 2023.
