The Annual General Meeting ("AGM") is scheduled for 20 May 2022 and the Notice of Annual General Meeting will be mailed to shareholders on or around 12 April 2022.

Caroline Brown will not be seeking re-election to the Board at the forthcoming AGM and therefore will cease to be a Director of the Company from the conclusion of the AGM on 20 May 2022. The Board of Directors would like to thank Caroline for her invaluable contribution, in particular as a member of the Audit and Valuation Committee.

As a consequence of Caroline's forthcoming departure, independent Non-Executive Director Kim Bradley will join the Audit and Valuation Committee effective from the AGM on 20 May 2022.

Following the expiration of Ernst & Young LLP's three-year term for 2019, 2020 and 2021, the Audit and Valuation Committee conducted a full tender amongst appropriate firms for the statutory audit and related services for the three years 2022, 2023 and 2024 which has resulted in PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP being put forward at this AGM for appointment as Auditor of the Company. Full details of the tender exercise are set out on page 141 of the Company's Annual Report 2021.

This announcement has been made in accordance with the requirements of Listing Rule 9.6.11.
