Notes:
1. A "vote withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the proportion of the votes "for" and "against" a resolution.
2. The issued share capital (ISC) figure used to calculate the percentage voted is 175,157,600. This is the figure as at the close of business on 3 March 2025.
The timetable for the remaining principal events is as follows:
· Expected date of initial directions hearing of the Court: | 14 March 2025 |
· Expected date of Court Hearing to confirm the Capital Reduction: | 25 March 2025 |
· Registration of Court Order and expected effective date for the Capital Reduction: |
By 31 March 2025
|
The expected dates for the confirmation of the Capital Reduction by the Court and the Capital Reduction becoming effective are based on provisional dates that have been obtained for the required Court hearings of the Company's application. These provisional hearing dates are subject to change and are dependent on the Court's timetable. If the expected dates of the Court hearings are changed (and consequently the expected effective date for the Capital Reduction changes), the Company will give notice of this to the extent practicable by announcement via the Regulatory News Service of the London Stock Exchange.
