* As previously communicated by an RNS announcement this morning, the resolution to declare a final dividend for the year ended 31 December 2022 of 1.88 pence per share ("2022 Final Dividend") (Resolution 3) was withdrawn prior to, and was not presented to, the AGM. This will ensure shareholders receive 212 pence per share in full without any reduction in respect of the previously proposed 2022 Final Dividend as opposed to two separate payments and in accordance with the terms of the recommended cash acquisition for the Company by Moonlight Bidco Limited (once effected).
