You can appoint another person (a proxy) to attend, speak, and/or vote at the AGM, whether in person, or online through the Lumi website, on your behalf. Regardless of whether or not you intend to attend the AGM in person or online, we strongly encourage you to appoint the Chair of the AGM to act as your proxy to ensure your vote is counted.

You can appoint a proxy to attend the AGM, speak, and/or vote, whether in person or online through the Lumi website, on your behalf. Your proxy does not need to be a shareholder and appointing a proxy will not prevent you from attending, speaking and voting at the AGM in person or online. Regardless of whether or not you intend to attend the AGM in person or online, we strongly encourage you to appoint the Chair of the AGM, as opposed to any other person, to act as your proxy to ensure your vote is counted (if, for instance, you or that other person are not able to attend the AGM in person or online).
The Chair of the AGM will be appointed as your proxy unless you delete the words 'Adam Crozier' or failing him the correctly appointed Chair of the AGM' and insert the name and address of your proxy in the box below.
Please submit your proxy appointment and voting instructions online (or by post) to our share registrar, Equiniti, by 2:00pm on Tuesday 11 July 2023.
I/we appoint Adam Crozier or failing him the correctly appointed Chair of the AGM
(Please leave this box blank if you have selected the Chair of the AGM. Do not insert your own name(s).)
to act as my/our proxy at this year's AGM (or any adjournment) and vote as indicated on this Card.
You can get additional proxy cards by calling our share registrar, Equiniti, on Freefone +44 (0)808 100 4141 or you can copy this Card. If you decide to appoint more than one proxy, please write against the proxy's name the number of shares they can vote as your proxy.
Please show how your proxy should vote by placing a cross in the appropriate boxes in black ink X Please mark inside the boxes.
A vote withheld is not a vote in law. We will not count a vote withheld in calculating the proportion of votes for or against a resolution.
