Notes:

1.   A "vote withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the proportion of the votes "for" and "against" a resolution.

2.   The issued share capital figure used to calculate the percentage voted is 277,870,803.  This is the figure as at close of business on 2 May 2017 and excludes the number of ordinary shares held in treasury at that date.

3.   The Directors note the proportion of votes cast against Resolution 2. In consultation prior to the proposal of Resolution 2, all shareholders consulted were supportive of the proposed changes to the Remuneration Policy. In line with best practice, the Board will make relevant disclosures, if appropriate, in the 2017 Annual Report.

4.   In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.3R, a copy of the resolutions passed as Special Business at the AGM have been submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will be available in due course for viewing at http://www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/NSM
