General Meeting - Record Date Clarification

The Company confirms that, as set out at Note 4 in the Form of Proxy sent to shareholders on 22 June 2020 and pursuant to Regulation 41 of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001, entitlement to attend and vote at the general meeting of the Company to be held as a closed meeting on 9 July 2020 at 11.00 a.m. (the "General Meeting") and the number of votes which may be cast at it will be determined by reference to the register of members of the Company at close of business on 7 July 2020 (being the day which is two business days before the day of the General Meeting).

The Company notes that Note 12 to the notice of General Meeting contained in the combined prospectus and circular dated 19 June 2020 incorrectly stated that to be entitled to vote at the General Meeting, shareholders must be registered in the register of members of the Company at 6 p.m. on 17 June 2020. This note is incorrect and should be disregarded by shareholders.
