Notes
1. Any proxy appointments which gave discretion to the Chairman have been included in the "For" total.
2. The proxy votes shown reflect the position as at 11.00am on Friday 16 July 2010, being 48 hours (and excluding non-working days) before the time of the meeting and conforming to Regulation 41 of the Uncertified Securities Regulations 2001. Voting instructions could be changed at any time prior to a poll being demanded and a shareholder having lodged a proxy was entitled to attend the meeting and vote their shares themselves as they saw fit.
3. A "Vote Withheld" is not a vote in law and was not counted in the calculation of the proportion of the votes "For" or "Against" a resolution.
