*Special resolution

Shareholder Engagement

The Board notes that, while the resolution to re-elect Peter Dubens was passed
with a majority, a material proportion of votes were cast against it. While
the Board composition complies with the independence requirements of the UK
Listing Rules and the AIC Code, the Board understands from its shareholder
engagement that certain investors have policies of voting against the
re-election of directors whom they consider not to be independent.

The Board respects these views and has engaged, and will continue to engage,
with shareholders who voted against the resolution this year to better
understand their perspectives. Notwithstanding this feedback, the Board
remains firmly of the view that Mr Dubens, as Founder Director, brings
invaluable experience, continuity and insight to the Company, which is in the
best interests of all shareholders.
