The Board is pleased that all resolutions were duly passed but notes the proportion of votes against resolutions 16 and 17 was over 20%. The Board considers both the Rule 9 Waiver and the ICG Management Incentive Plan to be in the best interests of shareholders a whole and is pleased that Resolutions 16 and 17 were passed with the support of the majority of the Company's shareholders. However, the Board notes the level of dissent and, given the importance of the views of all the Company's shareholders to the Board, it will continue to engage with investors on the above matters. An update will be published on that engagement within six months.

Notes
