Notes:
1. |
All resolutions were passed.
|
2. |
Proxy appointments which gave discretion to the Chairman of the AGM have been included in the "For" total for the appropriate resolution.
|
3. |
Votes "For" and "Against" any resolution are expressed as a percentage of votes validly cast for that resolution.
|
4. |
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, nor in the calculation of the proportion of "ISC voted" for any resolution.
|
5. |
The number of shares in issue at close of business on 14 June 2022 was 151,277,189 ordinary shares, carrying one vote each. Therefore, the total voting rights in the Company are 151,277,189. Note: The figures in the proportion of "ISC voted" have been calculated on the basis of the Company's current issued share capital of 151,277,189. For completeness, this does not take account of the recent buybacks made by the Company as these shares are yet to settle in CREST. Once settled on 24 June 2022, the issued share capital will be 151,175,274.
|
6. |
The proportion of "ISC voted" for any resolution is the total of votes validly cast for that resolution (i.e. the total votes "For" and "Against" that resolution) expressed as a percentage of the Issued Share Capital.
|
