Corporate shareholders are referred to the guidance issued by the Institute of Chartered Secretaries and Administrators on proxies and corporate representatives www.icsa.org.uk for further details of this procedure. The guidance includes a sample form of representation letter if the Chairman is being appointed as described in (a) above. 4.

Biographical details for Dominique De La Roche, George Bennett and Grant Lowman are set out on pages 6 and 7 of this annual report to which this notice is appended. Explanatory notes to certain of the resolutions to be proposed at the AGM (1) Resolution 7 Renewal of Directors authority to allot shares. By virtue of Article 3.2 of the Articles, the Directors require the authority of Members of the Company to allot shares or other relevant securities in the Company. This resolution authorises the Directors to make allotments not exceeding the number of shares the Company is authorised to issue. The Directors have no present intention of exercising the authority given by this resolution. (2) Resolution 8 Authority to the Company to make market purchases of its issued share capital. This resolution seeks authority for the Company to make market purchases of its Common Shares and is proposed as an ordinary resolution. If passed, the resolution gives authority for the Company to purchase up to 10% of its Common Shares, as at the date upon which a purchase is to be made. The resolution specifies the minimum and maximum prices which may be paid for any Common Shares purchased under this authority. The authority will expire on the earlier of the date falling 15 months after the AGM and the Company's next annual general meeting. (3) Resolution 9 Disapplication of pre-emption rights. By virtue of Article 3.3 of the Articles, any issue by the Company of equity capital for cash made otherwise than to existing shareholders on a proportional basis requires the consent of shareholders of the Company unless the Company has obtained the authority of the shareholders under Article 3.4 of the Articles. This resolution is for that purpose. It authorises the Directors to allot shares by way of rights or pursuant to an open offer or otherwise than strictly pro rata when the Directors consider that it is expedient to do so other than on a pre-emptive basis. 3
