A vote withheld is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of proportion of votes For and Against a resolution. a) Any votes that give discretion to the Chair have been included in the "For" total.

The Board notes that 59.51% of the Shareholders voted against Resolution 5, which concerns the advisory vote on the Company's 2024 Directors' Remuneration Report.   Over the last year, we have engaged with Shareholders about executive remuneration in connection with the new Directors' Remuneration Policy and 2024 Long Term Incentive Plan, which the Board notes were approved by 94.20% and 98.84% of the Shareholders at the AGM, respectively. We will engage with those Shareholders who decided to vote against resolution 5 during the coming months to understand their concerns. In accordance with the UK Corporate Governance Code, we will provide a website update in due course and a final summary in the next Annual Report & Accounts.

C&C confirms that Resolutions 8,9,10,11 and 12, which constitute special business, were passed.
