The reverse side of this page contains details on accessing that broadcast.
The Directors and members of the Executive Committee will appear at the AGM by video-link and the Chairman and the CEO will each make a presentation. Shareholders will be able to ask questions, either in writing via the meeting website, or by telephone.

The Board would like to thank all shareholders for their understanding and we look forward to engaging with as many of you as possible at the AGM.
