Dividend Re-investment Plan

With effect from the Company's half year dividend, which will be paid on 15 March 2024 to shareholders on the register on 16 February 2024, the Company will be introducing the option for shareholders to invest their dividend in a Dividend Reinvestment Plan ("DRIP"). Participation in the DRIP is optional and will not affect shareholders' cash dividends unless they elect to participate in the DRIP.

Shareholders will have the option to elect for their cash dividend payment to be automatically reinvested through the purchase of additional ordinary shares in the Company.

Shareholders wishing to receive their dividends via the DRIP should complete the online DRIP election form, which can be accessed at www.investorcentre.co.uk, or if a CREST Member, shareholders can submit their election using the CREST system before 23 February 2024.
