Where shareholders appointed the Chairman as their proxy with discretion as to voting, their votes were cast in favour of the resolutions and their shares have been included in the "votes for" column.

The total number of ordinary shares of 10p each in issue is 69,463,343. The total held in treasury is 1,712,118.  The total number of voting rights is 67,751,225.
