Notes:

1.    Any proxy arrangement which gave discretion to the Chairman has been included in the "for" totals.

2.    A "Vote withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the percentage of shares voted "For" or "Against" any resolution.

3.    As set out in the AGM Notice, the Directors did not vote on resolution 17, and their shares are therefore recorded as votes withheld in respect of that resolution.
