1. I am planning to attend the AGM. Do I need to complete the Proxy Form or bring it with me? No. Please bring the attached Attendance Card with you, as this is necessary for your admission to the AGM. If you do not bring the Attendance Card with you then proof of ID will be required for you to gain admittance to the AGM. 2. I am unable to come to the AGM and would like someone else to attend in my place. What do I do? Please enter the name of the person you would like to attend the AGM in your place (your ‘Proxy’) in the space provided on the form, sign and date the form, and return it to Computershare in the envelope provided, to arrive with them no later than 2.30pm on Monday 2 May 2022. Should you want the chairman of the meeting to be your proxy you need not enter their name. If the Proxy is being appointed in relation to part of your holding only, please enter in the box next to the Proxy’s name the number of shares in relation to which they are authorised to act as your Proxy. If this box is left blank they will be authorised in respect of your full voting entitlement. Your Proxy does not have to be a shareholder of the Company. You may appoint more than one Proxy if you wish, and for further information please see question 3. 3. How do I appoint more than one Proxy? You may appoint more than one Proxy in relation to your shareholding provided that each Proxy is appointed to exercise the rights attached to a different share or shares. To do this you must complete a separate form for each Proxy. You can either copy this form, or obtain additional copies from Computershare on 0370 600 3977. Please indicate the Proxy’s name in the space provided and state the number of shares for which you are authorising them to act on your behalf in the box to the right of their name. Please also remember to put an ‘X’ in the box to the right to make clear that the appointment is one of a multiple and return all of the Proxy appointments together in the same envelope. 4. Can I tell my Proxy how they should cast my votes? As a shareholder, you are entitled to appoint a Proxy (who need not be a shareholder) to exercise all or any of your rights to attend, speak and vote at a general meeting. If you wish your Proxy to vote in a particular way or withhold a vote, please put an ‘X’ in the appropriate ‘For’, ‘Against’ or ‘Vote withheld’ box for each Resolution. 5. What if I do not give my Proxy instructions on how to vote? You should note that if you do not give any voting instructions in relation to a Resolution, your Proxy will have authority to vote or to withhold a vote on that Resolution as he/she thinks fit. A Proxy will also have authority to vote or to withhold a vote on any other business (including amendments to Resolutions) which properly comes before the AGM, as he/she thinks fit. 6. What is the effect of a ‘Vote withheld’ instruction? If you wish to have the fact that you prefer not to vote on a Resolution recorded, you should instruct your Proxy to withhold such vote. A ’Vote withheld’ is not a vote in law and will not be counted in the calculation of the proportion of votes ‘For’ and ‘Against’ the relevant Resolution. 7. I am unable to attend the AGM or to send someone else in my place. Can I still cast my votes? Yes. The Proxy Form provides for you to appoint the Chairman of the AGM as your Proxy. Just leave the space blank, and sign and return the form, as in 2 above. You can either indicate your voting instructions (see 4 above), or allow the Chairman to vote at his discretion. Your vote will then be counted in the event of a poll on any of the Resolutions. 8. Must I cast all my votes in one way? No. An ‘X’ in the box will indicate that your total holding should be voted in one way. However, if you wish to vote on a Resolution with some shares ‘For’, some shares ‘Against’ and register a ’Vote withheld’ with others, please write the appropriate number of shares in each box. 9. We are registered as joint holders of the shares. What happens? Any or all joint holders may attend the AGM, although only one holder may vote in person or by Proxy. Only one holder need sign the Proxy Form. If more than one holder is present at the AGM, or if more than one Proxy Form is received in respect of a joint holding, only the vote or ’Vote withheld’ of the ‘senior’ holder will be accepted. Seniority is determined by the order in which the joint holders’ names appear on the Register of Shareholders. 10. Can I change my proxy appointment? Yes. When two or more valid but differing appointments of a Proxy are received in respect of the same share for use at the same meeting, the one which is last received (regardless of its date or the date of its signature) shall be treated as replacing and revoking the others as regards that share. If the Company is unable to determine which was last received, none of them shall be treated as valid in respect of that share. 11. I may be able to come to the AGM at the last minute. What happens if I have already appointed a proxy? You are still entitled to attend the AGM and vote in person. Any instructions given to your Proxy will then be ineffective. 12. I am completing and signing the Proxy Form on behalf of the shareholder under a power of Attorney (or other authority). What should I do? Please put an ‘X’ where requested in the relevant box next to your signature on the Proxy Form. When you return the Proxy Form, you must include the Power of Attorney or authority, or a copy certified by a notary. Certified copies will not be returned to you. 13. The registered shareholder is a limited company. How does it appoint a Proxy? In the case of a shareholder which is a company, the Proxy Form must be executed either (i) under its common seal or (ii) signed on its behalf by an attorney or officer duly authorised. All signatories must state their capacity (eg director, secretary). Alternatively, the company may appoint an individual or individuals to attend the AGM as its corporate representative(s) who may exercise on its behalf all of its powers as a shareholder provided that they do not do so in relation to the same shares, by providing a letter to that effect, duly signed by an authorised officer of the company. 14. I have recently sold/am planning to sell my shares. What is the cut-off date for attending the AGM? You are entitled to attend and vote at the AGM, or to appoint a Proxy, in respect of the number of shares registered in your name in the Register of Shareholders as at 8.00pm on Monday 2 May 2022. Any changes to the Register of Shareholders after that time are disregarded for the purposes of the AGM. 15. I hold my shares in CREST. How may I appoint a Proxy? If you are a user of the CREST system (including a CREST Personal Shareholder), you may appoint one or more Proxies or give an instruction to a Proxy by having an appropriate CREST message transmitted. To appoint a Proxy or to give an instruction to a Proxy (whether previously appointed or otherwise) via the CREST system, the CREST message must be received by the issuer’s agent (ID number 3RA50) no later than 2.30pm on Monday 2 May 2022. For this purpose, the time of receipt will be taken to be the time (as determined by the timestamp generated by the CREST system) from which the issuer’s agent is able to retrieve the message. CREST Personal Shareholders or other CREST sponsored shareholders should contact their CREST sponsor for assistance with appointing Proxies via CREST. For further information on CREST procedures, limitations and systems timings please refer to the CREST Manual. The Company may treat as invalid a Proxy appointment sent by CREST in the circumstances set out in Regulation 35(5)(a) of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001.
