Memorandum are available from the Tabulation Agent as set out below. Capitalised terms used in this

Results of the Proposals
The Meetings to consider the Proposals were held earlier today, and NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN to
Securityholders that:
(a) the Meeting in relation to the 2021 Securities was not quorate and has therefore been adjourned until

(c) pursuant to the terms of the Consent Solicitation Memorandum, the Company hereby announces that
the Consent Deadline in respect of the Securities will be extended to 4.00 p.m. (London time) on 7

in order for such Securityholder to participate in, or (in the limited circumstances in which revocation is
permitted) to validly revoke their instruction to participate in, the Consent Solicitation and/or vote in respect
of either or both of the Proposals before the deadlines specified above. The deadlines set by any such
intermediary and each Clearing System for the submission and (where permitted) revocation of Solicitation
Instructions will be earlier than the relevant deadlines above and in the Consent Solicitation Memorandum.
