listed in Box 4 - Silchester International Investors International Value
Equity Trust. No other client holds more than 5% of voting rights. In acting
for our Clients, Silchester is given full discretion over their investments
and is empowered to vote on their behalf. However, we do not act as our
Clients' custodian and therefore shares are not held in our name but in the
