The Company will purchase the above Ordinary Shares through the Broker on the

except on a resolution relating to the winding up of the Company.
Once the Ordinary Shares are cancelled, the total number of voting rights in
the Company will be 176,981,247. This figure may be used by shareholders of
the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they can
determine if they are required to notify their interest, or a change to their
