Statement in connection with Resolutions 3 and 12
The Company is pleased that all resolutions were supported by a significant majority of shareholders. However, the Board recognises that there were meaningful votes against Resolution 3, approval of the Directors' Remuneration Policy, and Resolution 12 to re-elect the Chair as a Director of the Company. The Remuneration Committee Chair and the Senior Independent Director have engaged with shareholders before the meeting today and will continue to engage with shareholders following today's meeting to understand their concerns. The Board is committed to giving an update on these matters promptly.
