The results of the poll votes was as follows:
Resolution | For & at Chairman discretion | % | Against | % | Withheld |
1. To authorise the Directors to allot shares.
| 14,072,936 | 98.74 | 178,921 | 1.26 | 31,964 |

Following the authorities granted at the General Meeting the Company announces that an application has been made to the Financial Conduct Authority and the London Stock Exchange for a block listing of 6,438,978 ordinary shares of 5 pence each ("Ordinary Shares") in the capital of the Company (the "Block Listing"). The Block Listing is in addition to the Company's existing block listing which has 671,199 Ordinary Shares remaining and will enable the Company to satisfy market demand in the Company's Ordinary Shares. It is expected that the Block Listing will become effective on 4th February 2025.
Any Ordinary Shares issued in connection with the Block Listing application:
· Will be issued at prices which shall be at a premium to the latest net asset value per Ordinary Share prior to the issue and, therefore, will not result in any dilution of the net asset value per existing Ordinary Shares; and
· Will rank, when issued, pari passu with the Ordinary Shares already in issue.
Notes:
1. Any proxy appointments giving discretion to the Chairman of the Meeting have been included in the "For" total.
2. Votes "For" and "Against" any resolution are expressed as a percentage (rounded to two decimal places) of votes validly cast for that resolution.
3. A vote "Withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the votes "For" or "Against" a resolution.
4. The Company's total ordinary shares in issue (total voting rights) as at 3rd February 2025 is 37,962,663 ordinary shares of 5 pence each. Ordinary shareholders are entitled to one vote per ordinary share held.
5. In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2R, a copy of the resolutions passed at the AGM will be submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism
