Disclaimer

This announcement contains forward-looking statements. These forward-looking
statements include all matters that are not historical facts. These
forward-looking statements are made based upon the Company's expectations and
beliefs concerning future events impacting the Company and therefore involve a
number of risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements are not
guarantees of future performance, and the Company's actual results of
operations, financial condition and liquidity may differ materially and
adversely from the forward-looking statements contained in this announcement.
Forward-looking statements speak only as of the day they are made and the
Company does not undertake to update its forward-looking statements unless
required by law.

The distribution of this announcement in certain jurisdictions may be
restricted by law. It is the responsibility of all Overseas Shareholders to
satisfy themselves as to the observance of any legal requirements in their
jurisdiction, including, without limitation, any relevant requirements in
relation to the ability of such holders to participate in the Tender Offer.

The Tender Offer is not available to Shareholders with registered or mailing
addresses in a Restricted Territory, or who are citizens or nationals of, or
resident in, a Restricted Territory.

Certain Overseas Shareholders are being excluded from the Tender Offer in
order to avoid breaching applicable local laws relating to the implementation
of the Tender Offer.                      It is the responsibility of all
Overseas Shareholders to satisfy themselves as to the observance of any legal
requirements in their jurisdiction, including, without limitation, any
relevant requirements in relation to the ability of such holders to
participate in the Tender Offer.

Winterflood Securities Limited (“                     Winterflood           
        ”), which is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct
Authority in the United Kingdom, is acting exclusively for the Company and
no-one else in connection with the Proposals and will not be responsible to
anyone other than the Company for providing the protections afforded to
customers of Winterflood or for providing advice in relation to the Tender
Offer or any matter referred to in the Circular or herein.                   
  Nothing herein                     shall serve to exclude or limit any
responsibilities which Winterflood may have under the FSMA or the regulatory
regime established thereunder.

Any decision to participate in the Tender Offer should only be made on the
basis of an independent review by an Eligible Shareholder of the Company's
publicly available information. Neither Winterflood nor any of its affiliates
accept any liability arising from the use of, or make           any
representation           as to the accuracy or completeness of, this
announcement or the Company's publicly available information.

Notice for U.S. Shareholders

The Tender Offer relates to securities in a non-U.S. company registered in
England and Wales and listed on the London Stock Exchange and is subject to
the disclosure requirements, rules and practices applicable to companies
listed in the United Kingdom, which differ from those of the United States in
certain material respects. A circular has been prepared in accordance with UK
style and practice for the purpose of complying with the laws of England and
Wales and the rules of the FCA and of the London Stock Exchange, and U.S.
Shareholders should read the entire circular. The Tender Offer is not subject
to the disclosure and other procedural requirements of Regulation 14D under
the U.S. Exchange Act. The Tender Offer will be made in the United States
pursuant to Section 14(e) of, and Regulation 14E under, the U.S. Exchange Act,
subject to the exemptions provided by Rule 14d-1 thereunder and otherwise in
accordance with the requirements of the rules of the FCA and the London Stock
Exchange. Accordingly, the Tender Offer will be subject to disclosure and
other procedural requirements that are different from those applicable under
U.S. domestic tender offer procedures and law. The Company is not listed on a
U.S. securities exchange, is not subject to the periodic reporting
requirements of the U.S. Exchange Act and is not required to, and does not,
file any reports with the SEC thereunder.

It may be difficult for U.S. Shareholders to enforce certain rights and claims
arising in connection with the Tender Offer under U.S. federal securities laws
since the Company is located outside the United States and its officers and
directors reside outside the United States. It may not be possible to sue a
non-U.S. company or its officers or directors in a non-U.S. court for
violations of U.S. securities laws. It also may not be possible to compel a
non-U.S. company or its affiliates to subject themselves to a U.S. court’s
judgment.

To the extent permitted by applicable law and in accordance with normal UK
practice, the Company, Winterflood or any of their affiliates, may make
certain purchases of, or arrangements to purchase, Ordinary Shares outside the
United States during the period in which the Tender Offer remains open for
acceptance, including purchases of Ordinary Shares effected by Winterflood
acting as market maker in the Ordinary Shares.
