1              Includes discretionary votes.

2              The total voting rights of the Company as at 6.30 p.m. on 13 May 2024 (the time by which shareholders wanting to attend, speak and vote at the AGM were required to be entered on the register) was 793,538,858 ordinary shares of £0.00005 each. The Company does not hold any shares in treasury, and so the total voting rights in the Company were 793,538,858.

3              A "Vote Withheld" is not a vote in law and is not included in the calculation of votes "For" or "Against" a resolution.

 

In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2, a copy of the resolutions that do not constitute ordinary business at an AGM have been submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will be available for inspection at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism.
