Notes:

1. Any proxy votes which were at the discretion of the Chairman have been included in the "for" total.

2. "Total Votes Cast" is the total number of shares voted and excludes shares on which votes were withheld.

3. "Percentage of ISC voted", and the percentages of votes cast "for" and "against" are calculated based on the Total Votes Cast and therefore exclude any shares on which votes were withheld.

4. The issued share capital as at 12 noon 9 May 2017 was 209,378,414 ordinary shares of 25p each and the number of votes per share is one. This figure has been used to calculate the percentage of issued share capital voted.
