                        votes validly cast for that resolution.

 4.                     A "Vote withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation
                        of the percentage of shares voted "For" or "Against" any resolution nor in the
                        calculation of the proportion of "Total issued share capital instructed" for
