Notice of Annual General Meeting

Notes to the Notice of AGM:

  1. The Company, pursuant to Regulation 41 of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001, specifies that to be entitled to attend and vote at the Annual General Meeting ("AGM") (and for the purpose of determining the number of votes a member may cast), members must be entered on the register of members of the Company ("the Register of Members") by 6.00 p.m. on 16 January 2023 or, in the event that the meeting is adjourned, in the Register of Members 48 hours before the time of any adjourned meeting. Changes to entries in the Register of Members after 6.00 p.m. on 16 January 2023 or, in the event that the meeting is adjourned, in the Register of Members less than 48 hours before the time of any adjourned meeting, shall be disregarded in determining the rights of any person to attend and vote at the meeting.
  2. A member of the Company entitled to attend, speak and vote at the AGM is entitled to appoint one or more proxies to exercise all or any of their rights to attend, speak and vote on his or her behalf (on a show of hands and on a poll). You should have received a proxy form with this notice of the AGM. You can only appoint a proxy using the procedures set out in these notes and the notes to the proxy form.
  3. A proxy need not also be a member, but must attend the AGM to represent you. Completion and return of a proxy form will not preclude a member from attending and voting at the AGM or at any adjournment thereof should the member so decide. If you have appointed a proxy and attend the AGM in person, your proxy appointment will automatically be terminated.
  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 the same shares. If you wish to appoint multiple proxies, please contact the Company's Registrars using the contact details in note 6. Alternatively, the proxy form may be photocopied before its completion.
  5. 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 his or her discretion. Your proxy will vote (or abstain from voting) as he or she thinks fit in relation to any other matter which is put before the AGM.
  6. To be valid, the proxy form must be completed, signed and returned so as to reach the Company's Registrars, Neville Registrars Limited at Neville House, Steelpark Road, Halesowen B62 8HD, by no later than 1.00 p.m. on 16 January 2023.
  7. Details of how to appoint the Chairman of the AGM or another person as your proxy using the proxy form are set out in the notes to the proxy form. The notes to the proxy form explain how to direct your proxy to vote on each resolution or withhold his vote. Where you appoint as your proxy someone other than the Chairman, you are responsible for ensuring that they attend the AGM 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 Chairman and give them the relevant instructions directly.
  8. In the case of a member which is a company, the proxy form must be executed under its common seal or signed on its behalf by an officer of the company or an attorney for the company.
  9. Any power of attorney or any other authority under which the proxy form is signed (or a duly certified copy of such power or authority) must be included with the proxy form.
  10. 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 name of the joint holders appear in the Register of Members in respect of the joint holding (the first-named being the most senior).
  11. A corporation which is a member can appoint one or more corporate representatives who may exercise, on its behalf, all its powers as a member provided that no more than one corporate representative exercises powers over the same shares.
  12. You may not use any electronic address provided either in this notice or any related documents (including the Chairman's letter, the proxy form and any revocation notice) to communicate with the Company for any purpose other than those expressly stated.
  13. As at 6.00 p.m. on 2 December 2022, the Company's issued share capital comprised 29,794,550 ordinary shares of £0.004 each. Each ordinary share carries the right to one vote at a general meeting of the Company and, therefore, the total number of voting rights in the Company as at 6.00 p.m. on 2 December 2022 is 29,794,550.

  1. in relation to pre-emptive offers and offers to holders of other equity securities if required by the rights of those securities or as the Directors otherwise consider necessary, up to a maximum nominal amount of £39,726.07 which represents approximately one-third of the Company's issued ordinary shares as at 2 December 2022; and
  2. in any other case, up to a maximum nominal amount of £11,917.82 which represents approximately 10% of the Company's issued ordinary shares as at 2 December 2022.
