Notes:

1. A "vote withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the proportion of the votes "for" and "against" a resolution.

2. The issued share capital figure used to calculate the percentage voted is 318,336,301. This is the figure as at the close of business on 30 April 2025 and excludes the number of ordinary shares held in treasury at that date.

3. As announced on 31 March 2025, Jim Mullen stepped down from his role as Chief Executive and director of the Company with immediate effect, with the consequence that the resolution to re-elect Jim Mullen as a director of the Company included as resolution 5 in the Notice of AGM was to be withdrawn. At the same time, it was also announced that Piers North had been appointed as Chief Executive and director of the Company and an additional resolution was proposed as resolution 21 in the Supplement to the Notice of AGM, to elect Piers North as a director of the Company.
