Notes:

  • 1. Any proxy arrangement which gave discretion to the Chairman has been included in the "for" totals.

  • 2. A "Vote withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the percentage of shares 'For' or 'Against' any resolution. In accordance with Listing Rule 9.2.2, the votes of the shareholders and the independent shareholders are set out separately in the above table.

3.

The number of shares in issue at 6.00pm on 15 June 2020 was 68,346,970 (the "Share Capital"). The Company does not hold any shares in treasury.

Resolution 2 and 3

The Board is pleased that the Directors' Remuneration Report and the Directors' Remuneration Policy were approved but notes the number of votes against these resolutions exceeded 20% in both cases. The Company will now undertake a full independent review of its remuneration policy and reporting overseen by the Remuneration Committee and will report on this later in the year. Until a full review has been completed, and the business is fully reopened, the Board do not intend to award any LTIPs in respect of 2020.

Resolution 4

The re-election of Nick Basing received votes in favour of over 77%. As required by the Corporate Governance Code the Board thought very carefully about Nick's independence and specifically considered his tenure and previous roles in the Group and were satisfied that these have not compromised his independence in any way. This is laid out in detail in the Annual Report.

In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2, copies of resolutions passed at the Annual General Meeting concerning items other than ordinary business will shortly be available for inspection on the National Storage Mechanism which can be accessed athttps://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism
