Notes FORM OF PROXY 1. As a Scheme Shareholder you are entitled to appoint one or more proxies to exercise all or any of your rights to attend, speak and vote on your behalf at the Court Meeting. You can only appoint a proxy using the procedures set out in these notes. If the proxy is being appointed in relation to part of your holding only, please enter in the box next to the proxy’s name (headed “Number of Scheme Shares”) the number of Scheme Shares in relation to which they are authorised to act as your proxy. If this box is left blank they will be authorised in respect of your full voting entitlement. This form of proxy confers authority to demand or join in demanding a poll. 2. Appointment of a proxy does not preclude you from attending the Court Meeting and voting in person. If you have appointed a proxy and attend the Court Meeting, in person and vote, your proxy appointment will automatically be terminated. APPOINTMENT 3. A proxy needs not be a registered shareholder of the Company but they must attend the Court Meeting to represent you. If you wish to appoint a proxy other than the Chairman of the Court Meeting, insert their full name in the box (headed “Name of proxy”). If you leave this space blank, the Chairman of the Court Meeting will be appointed your proxy. Where you appoint as your proxy someone other than the Chairman, you are responsible for ensuring that they attend the Court Meeting and are aware of your voting intentions. If you wish your proxy to make any comments on your behalf, you will need to appoint someone other than the Chairman and give them the relevant instructions directly. 4. If you are appointing more than one proxy, please indicate in the box next to the proxy holder’s name the number of Scheme Shares in relation to which they are authorised to act as your proxy (which, in aggregate, should not exceed the number of Scheme Shares held by you) and indicate by ticking the relevant box that the proxy appointment is one of multiple appointments being made. You may not appoint more than one proxy to exercise rights attached to any one Scheme Share. If you require additional proxy forms, please contact the Company’s registrars, Equiniti, on +44 (0) 317 384 2050 (if calling from outside the U.K. international rates apply) or by submitting a request in writing to Equiniti at Freepost RTHJ-CLLL-KBKU, Equiniti, Aspect House, Spencer Road, Lancing, West Sussex BN99 8LU, United Kingdom.
