 **2. Changes to Board and Committee Composition**

Changes to the Board and Committee composition, which took effect from the conclusion of the AGM, were announced on 6 May 2026.

 **3. Other**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ● Computershare Investor Services PLC, the Company's Share Registrar, acted as scrutineer of the poll on all resolutions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ● A copy of the resolutions passed at the AGM (other than resolutions concerning ordinary business) has been submitted to the UK Financial Conduct Authority for publication, and will shortly be available for inspection via the National Storage Mechanism which is located at <u>https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ● As at 12.01am (London time) on Thursday 7 May 2026, the total number of issued ordinary shares of US$0.50 each entitling the holders to attend and vote on all the resolutions at the AGM was 17,183,563,842. The Company held no ordinary shares in treasury. A vote 'withheld' is not a vote in law and is therefore not counted in the calculation of the proportion of the votes 'for' and 'against' a resolution.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ● In accordance with Rule 13.39(5A) of the Hong Kong Listing Rules all Directors attended the AGM.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ● In accordance with Rule 13.40 of the Hong Kong Listing Rules there were no shares entitling the holder to attend and abstain from voting in favour of any of the resolutions. No shareholder was required under the Hong Kong Listing Rules to abstain from voting.

As at the time of this announcement, the following are Directors of the Company: Brendan Robert Nelson<sup>\*</sup>, Georges Bahjat Elhedery, Geraldine Joyce Buckingham<sup>†</sup>, Wei Sun Christianson<sup>†</sup>, Rachel Duan<sup>†</sup>, Dame Carolyn Julie Fairbairn<sup>†</sup>, James Anthony Forese<sup>†</sup>, Steven Craig Guggenheimer<sup>†</sup>, Manveen (Pam) Kaur, Dr José Antonio Meade Kuribreña<sup>†</sup>, Richard Henry Meddings<sup>†</sup>, Kalpana Jaisingh Morparia<sup>†</sup>, Eileen K Murray<sup>†</sup> and Swee Lian Teo<sup>†</sup>.
