Notes:
1. Any proxy arrangement which gave discretion to the Chairman
has been included in the "For" totals.
2. A "Vote withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted in
the calculation of the percentage of shares voted "For" or
"Against" any resolution or the total number of votes cast.
3. The number of shares in issue in the Company on 7(th) June
2023 was 126,127,279. The Company does not hold any shares in
treasury. Shareholders are entitled to one vote per ordinary share
held in the Company.
4. The Board notes that Resolution 10 (which authorises the
Company and its subsidiaries to make political donations an d incur
political expenditure ) was passed with 69.97% of votes in favour.
As stated in the Notice of AGM, it is the Company's policy that it
does not make political donations nor incur political expenditure.
The approval was sought as a renewal of an existing approval and as
a precautionary measure only to guard against any inadvertent
breach of the statutory restrictions, particularly as the Companies
Act 2006 includes broad and ambiguous definitions of the terms
"political donation" and "political expenditure". As stated in the
Notice of AGM, the Board confirms that it has no intention of
making any political donations, incurring political expenditure or
entering into party political activities. Th e authority is only in
respect of expenditure that might inadvertently be termed as a
political donation or political expenditure and is in respect of
annual expenditure up to a total of GBP50,000. In accordance with
the UK Corporate Governance Code, the Company will publish an
update within six months of this AGM.
5. Pursuant to Listing Rule 9.6.2, copies of all resolutions,
other than those concerning ordinary business, passed at the AGM
today will be submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will
shortly be available to view at
https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism .
6. Results of the poll will also be available shortly to view on
the Company's website at
