* Robin assumed the role as the Chair of the Audit and Risk Committee in January 2026. The Board has determined that Robin is an independent non-executive director, notwithstanding that he is appointed by a significant shareholder.  The Board is satisfied that Robin acts with independence of character and judgement, as evidenced by the way in which he has discharged his duties as a Director. The Board is therefore satisfied that the Company is compliant with the FCA’s Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rule (DTR) 7.1, which provides that provides that the majority of members (including the committee chair) should be independent non-executive directors. The Board does not believe that his appointment through Macquarie compromises his independence or the effectiveness of his contributions and he has no other material commercial or business relationships with National Gas.
