Resolutions 2, 13 and 17

In relation to resolutions 2, to approve the Directors' Remuneration Report, 13, to authorise the directors to allot shares and 17, to call general meetings on 14 days' notice, the Board acknowledges that, while these resolutions were passed with a clear majority, there was a significant vote against.

The Board is committed to continuing an open and transparent dialogue with the Company's shareholders and engaged extensively with shareholders both prior to the publication of the Annual Report and ahead of the AGM on the matters set out in our Remuneration Report. We will continue that engagement, in particular to understand the views of those shareholders who voted against these resolutions to understand any specific concerns on executive pay, allotment authorities and notice periods. We will publish an update on this engagement, in accordance with the UK Corporate Governance Code, within six months of the 2022 AGM as well as a final summary in the Company's Annual Report for the 2022 Financial Year.

In relation to resolution 13, the Board further notes that the allotment authority under resolution 13 granted today by shareholders falls within the Investment Association's Share Capital Management Guidelines.
