^*Special resolution

The full text of Resolutions 17 to 23 (inclusive) is set out in the Notice of Annual General Meeting and explanation of business dated 23 April 2026.

As at 6.00pm BST, or 4.00pm Hong Kong time for the Hong Kong branch register, on 26 May 2026, the number of issued shares of the Company (excluding any shares that were bought back and pending cancellation) was 2,521,145,867 ordinary shares. This was the total number of shares entitling the holders to attend and vote at the AGM. In accordance with the Company's Articles of Association, on a poll every member present in person or by proxy has one vote for every share held.

There were no restrictions on shareholders to cast votes on any of the resolutions proposed at the AGM, with the exception of the Chair and the Chief Executive Officer (and their respective associates) who were required to abstain, and have abstained from voting on Resolution 18, which affected a total of 340,237 voting rights. Votes withheld are not votes in law and therefore have not been counted in the calculation of the proportion of the votes for and against a resolution. Proxy appointments which gave discretion to the Chair have been included in the total of votes 'for' the respective resolutions. The scrutineer of the poll was Computershare Investor Services PLC, the Company's Share Registrar.

All Directors of the Company attended the AGM.

Pursuant to Listing Rule 6.4.2 of the UK Listing Rules, a copy of all resolutions, other than those concerning ordinary business, passed at the AGM on 28 May 2026, will shortly be available to view on the National Storage Mechanism at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism.
