The Board of the Company notes that the level of votes against three of the resolutions put to the AGM exceeded 20%. The Company understands that this has been driven mainly by concerns raised by certain shareholders around Board diversity and historical directors' remuneration policy issues. In line with the UK Corporate Governance Code, the Board will reflect on the feedback received and publish an update on these matters in due course.

A copy of the resolutions passed at the AGM relating to special business has been submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection at: https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism.
