- NOTICE TO US HOLDERS
The Company’s shareholders ordinarily resident in the United States or with a registered addresses in the United States (and any custodian, nominee or trustee holding Company shares for persons in the United States or with a registered addresses in the United States) (“US Holders”) should note that the Offer relates to the securities of an English company with a listing on the London Stock Exchange’s main market and is proposed to be made by means of a scheme of arrangement provided for under, and governed by, English company law. Accordingly, the Offer is subject to the disclosure and procedural requirements and practices applicable in the United Kingdom to schemes of arrangement which differ from the disclosure requirements of United States tender offer and proxy solicitation rules.
Neither the United States Securities and Exchange Commission nor any other US federal or state securities commission or regulatory authority has reviewed, approved or disapproved the Information, any of the proposals described in the Information or passed an opinion on the accuracy or the adequacy of the Information.
Financial information included in the Information has been prepared, unless specifically stated otherwise, in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and thus may not be comparable to the financial information of US companies or companies whose financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.
A US Holder should be aware that the transactions contemplated herein may have tax consequences for US federal income tax purposes and under applicable US state and local, as well as foreign and other, tax laws. Each US Holder is therefore urged to consult with legal, tax and financial advisers in connection with making a decision regarding the Offer.
It may be difficult for US Holders of Company shares to enforce their rights and claims arising out of US federal securities laws since the Company is organised in a country other than the United States and some or all of its officers and directors may be residents of, and some or all of its assets may be located in, jurisdictions other than the United States. US Holders may have difficulty effecting service of process within the United States upon those persons or recovering against judgments of US courts, including judgments based upon the civil liability provisions of the US federal securities laws. US Holders may not be able to sue a non-US company or its officers or directors in a non-US court for violations of US securities laws. Further, it may be difficult to compel a non-US company and its affiliates to subject themselves to a US court’s judgment.
- BASIS OF ACCESS TO INFORMATION
The Information is being made available in good faith and for information purposes only and is subject to these terms and conditions. Any person seeking access to the Information represents and warrants to the Company that they are doing so legally and for information purposes only. Making the Information available in electronic format is not intended to and does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to subscribe for or buy or an invitation to purchase or subscribe for any securities or the solicitation of any vote or approval in any jurisdiction pursuant to the Offer or otherwise, nor shall there be any sale, issuance or transfer of the securities in any jurisdiction in contravention of applicable law.
Company shareholders should seek advice from an independent financial adviser as to the suitability of any action for the individual concerned. If you are a Company shareholder you should take no action based on the Information. The Offer will be made solely by means of either a scheme document (as the Offer is to be implemented by means of a scheme of arrangement pursuant to Part 26 of the Companies Act 2006 (the ”Act“)) or an offer document (if the Offer is to be implemented by way of a takeover offer pursuant to Part 28 of the Act), which will contain the full terms and conditions of the Offer, including details on how it may be accepted. Any action required by Company shareholders in connection with an Offer will only be set out in documents sent to or made available to Company shareholders and any decision made by such shareholders should be made solely and only on the basis of information provided in those documents.
The Information is subject to, and must be read in conjunction with, all other publicly available information and, where relevant, any further disclosure document(s) published by the Company.

Such forward-looking statements include statements about the expected effects of the Offer on the Company or the offeror and all other statements other than historical facts.

These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and have not been reviewed by the auditors of the Company or the offeror. Neither the Company nor any of its respective members, directors, officers, employees, advisers and any person acting on behalf of one or more of them assumes any obligation to update or correct the Information (whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise) except as required by applicable law.
