* Special Resolution

 

Any proxy appointments giving discretion to the Chair of the meeting have been included in the "For" total. A vote "Withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the votes "For" or "Against" a resolution. The Company's total number of ordinary shares in issue as at close of business on 5 May 2026, being the time at which a person had to be registered in the Company's register of members in order to be eligible to vote at the AGM, was 379,817,126 ordinary shares of 10 pence each, with no shares held in treasury. Shareholders are entitled to one vote per ordinary share held. Total voting rights as at close of business on 5 May 2026 were therefore 379,817,126.

 

A copy of the resolutions passed at the AGM concerning items other than ordinary business will be submitted to the National Storage Mechanism for inspection at: https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism.

 

A copy of the AGM results will also be made available on the Company's website at: https://www.jsg.com/investor-relations/.
