*Votes "For" include votes giving the Chairman discretion.

**A 'Vote Withheld' is not a vote in law and has not been counted in the calculation of the proportion of the votes 'For' and 'Against' a resolution.

 

Whilst resolution 2 was passed with the necessary majority, the Board notes the voting in relation to this resolution. The Board has considered this and does not believe that any further actions are required to understand the reasons behind this voting result or otherwise.

 

Following resolution 6 not being passed, the Directors do not currently have the authority to allot ordinary shares in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") for cash or for other purposes, or grant rights to subscribe for or convert any securities into Ordinary Shares. Following the voting on resolution 6, where it is able to, the Board will seek to engage with those shareholders who are understood to have voted against this resolution in order to understand their views and/or any specific concerns.
