out in the 2013 audited accounts which have been prepared in
accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). There have been no changes to the accounting policies
described in the 2013 audited accounts except for the adoption of the following amendments and interpretation: 
 
 Amendments to IAS 32Amendments to IAS 36Amendments to IAS 39IFRIC 21  Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial LiabilitiesRecoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-Financial AssetsNovation of Derivatives and Continuation of Hedge AccountingLevies  
 
 
The adoption of these amendments and interpretation did not have any impact on the results of the Group. 
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates.
It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Group's accounting policies.  Estimates
and judgments used in preparing the financial statements are regularly evaluated and are based on historical experience and
other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.  The
resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results.
