(i) Where shareholders appointed the Chairman as their proxy with discretion as to voting, their votes were cast in favour of the resolutions and their shares have been included in the "votes for" column.
(ii) A "vote withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the percentages of the votes cast for and against a resolution.
(iii) Resolutions 1 and 3 to 13 were passed as ordinary resolutions. Resolutions 15 to 19 were passed as special resolutions.
