A vote withheld is not a vote in law and, therefore, is not counted in the calculation of the proportion of votes for and against a resolution.

The Company notes that resolution 15 (approving the terms of the waiver of mandatory offer provisions set out in Rule 9 of the Takeover Code (the “Waiver”), received a vote of 77.06 per cent in favour. Resolution 15 was an ordinary resolution voted on by shareholders other than Olive, which was not entitled to cast a vote on that resolution. The Company will continue a dialogue with shareholders and advisory services around the rationale for seeking the Waiver with a view to addressing any related concerns.

In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2, copies of the resolutions that do not constitute ordinary business at an annual general meeting will be submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection at www.hemscott.com⁄nsm.do
