Annual General Meeting held on 4 April 2024

At the AGM held on 4 April 2024 all resolutions were passed, including those detailed below:

·     An ordinary resolution renewing the Directors' general authority to issue shares up to an aggregate nominal amount of £14,858,175.75 (representing approximately 33% of the total issued share capital of the Company). This authority will expire at the conclusion of the next AGM of the Company or on 3 July 2025, whichever is the earlier (unless previously varied, revoked or renewed).

·     A special resolution renewing the Directors' authority to issue shares and sell treasury shares on a non-pre-emptive basis up to an aggregate nominal amount of £4,457,898.50 (representing 10% of the total issued share capital of the Company). This authority will expire at the conclusion of the next AGM of the Company or on 3 July 2025, whichever is the earlier (unless previously varied, revoked or renewed). This authority will only be used to issue shares or re-sell shares from treasury at a premium to net asset value and only when the Directors believe it would be in the best interests of the Company to do so.

·     An ordinary resolution that the Directors be authorised for the purposes of LR15.4.11 of the Listing Rules of the UK Listing Authority to issue further ordinary shares (including selling treasury shares) for cash at a price below the net asset value per share of those shares (with borrowings valued at book) without first offering those shares pro rata to existing Shareholders.

·     A special resolution renewing the Company's authority to make market purchases of up to 14.99% of the Company's issued share capital, being 26,729,559 ordinary shares of 25p. This authority will expire at the conclusion of the AGM to be held in 2025, unless previously varied, revoked or renewed.
