Notes:
1. Any proxy appointments which gave discretion to the Chairman have been included in the 'For' total.
2. A vote 'Withheld' is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the proportion of the votes for or against
   a resolution.
3. The total issued share capital and total number of voting rights is: 1,953,178,138 ordinary shares. Every shareholder
   has one vote for every ordinary share held. This figure includes 128,350,793 ordinary shares held by a Group entity, of
   which 127,008,786 are held as security under the terms of the £275 million exchangeable bond. The 128,350,793
   ordinary shares will not vote whilst they are held by a group entity (the "Security Shares"). On average 76.07%
   (1,485,869,541 ordinary shares) of the total number of voting rights voted. The percentage of shares voted once the
   Security Shares have been excluded was approximately 81.43%.

In accordance with 6.4.2 of the Listing Rules, copies of the resolutions passed at the Annual General Meeting, other than
resolutions concerning ordinary business, will be submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available
for inspection at: https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism.
