In the case of resolution 2, the Board recognises that there were significant votes cast against.  The Remuneration Committee will engage with shareholders to better understand their concerns as it develops its revised Remuneration Policy.  It will then, as already planned, consult with shareholders on the revised Remuneration Policy ahead of it being put forward for shareholder approval at the 2020 AGM.

In respect to resolutions 15 and 16, the Board notes that, whilst these resolutions are consistent with the latest Pre-emption Group Principles and with the resolutions approved in previous years, there were significant votes against, and accordingly it will consult with shareholders voting against these resolutions to better understand their views in relation to the specific authorities sought.

NOTES:

1.    The 'For' vote includes those giving the Chairman discretion.

2.    Votes 'Withheld' are not counted in the calculation of the proportion of votes 'For' or 'Against' a resolution.

3.    Resolutions 15 to 18 are special resolutions.

4.    As at Tuesday, 16 April 2019 the total number of ordinary shares in issue was 32,534,237.
