*Please note that 'vote withheld' is not a vote under English
law and is not counted in the calculation of votes 'for' or
'against' a resolution, or in the 'votes cast as a percentage of
issued share capital'.
The Board has considered the results of the AGM today and notes
the level of votes cast against Resolution 14, which authorises the
Directors to allot shares up to a value of approximately one third
of the issued share capital. It is standard market practice for UK
listed companies to retain this type of authority and the amount
sought under this resolution is lower than the maximum recommended
levels contained within the UK Investment Association's share
capital management guidelines.
The results of the vote on Resolution 14 were primarily driven
by one major shareholder and, following the outcome of today's
vote, we will continue our engagement with them and provide the
required updates in-line with the requirements of the UK Governance
Code.
The issued share capital of the Company comprises 553,060,741
shares. Resolutions 16, 17, 18 and 19 were passed as special
resolutions.
The Company has sent copies of the resolutions passed at the
AGM, other than those concerning ordinary business, and the new
Articles of Association to the FCA's National Storage Mechanism and
they are available for inspection at
https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism
Details of proxy votes lodged will be available shortly on the
Company's website at
