While all resolutions were passed, the Board notes the voting

Committee, and the advisory resolution on the Report of the
Remuneration Committee. As part of ongoing engagement with
shareholders ahead of the AGM, the Board received feedback from
some shareholders concerning Board gender diversity and certain
aspects of executive director remuneration. The Board has a clear
understanding of those shareholder views and expectations and will
continue its programme of engagement with shareholders on this and
other matters.
