Resolutions 18, 19 and 20 were passed as special resolutions requiring a majority of not less than 75% of votes cast. All other resolutions were proposed as ordinary resolutions. A vote Withheld is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the proportion of votes "For" and "Against" a resolution. Resolution 2 (Remuneration Report) is an advisory vote only. Percentages are calculated as a proportion of total votes cast excluding withheld votes and are rounded to two decimal places. The votes "For" include those giving the Chair of the AGM discretion.
Independent Shareholder Vote - Independent Director Elections (Resolutions 4, 6, 7 and 11-13) Resolutions 4, 6, 7 and 11 to 13 related to the election and re-election of Independent Non-Executive Directors. Under the UK Listing Rules (LR 6.4.6R), because PSC Marlin Holdco Limited and Marlinbass Limited each control more than 30 per cent. of the voting rights of the Company, the re-election of an Independent Director must be approved by a majority of both: (i) the shareholders of the Company; and (ii) the independent shareholders of the Company (that is, the shareholders of the Company entitled to vote on the election of Independent Directors who are not PSC Marlin Holdco Limited or Marlinbass Limited). The votes cast by all shareholders on each of these resolutions are set out in the main table above. The Company has separately counted the number of votes cast by independent shareholders in favour of each of these resolutions. The results of the independent shareholder count are set out below.
