2.5.      Terms of offer

 

(a)        On page 41of the Original Bidder's Statement, in Section 13.1 'Offer', delete subparagraph (i) and replace with the following:

 

(i)         If you require additional assistance and you are a
Shareholder on the MCM United Kingdom Register (as you hold your MCM Shares in
CREST), please call the Goldway UK Offer Information Line on +44 (0) 370 707
4040. Calls are charged at the standard geographic rate and will vary by
provider. Calls from outside the United Kingdom will be charged at the
applicable international rate.

 

(b)        On page 46 of the Original Bidder's Statement, in Section 13.3 'How to accept this Offer', delete subparagraph (i) and replace with the following:

(i)          MCM Shares held in uncertificated form (i.e. in CREST)

(i)       If your MCM Shares are in uncertificated form, you should take
(or procure to be taken) the action set out below to transfer the MCM Shares
in respect of which you wish to accept the Offer to an escrow balance (that
is, issue a "TTE Instruction"), specifying 3RA26 as the Escrow Agent, as soon
as possible and in any event so that the transfer to escrow settles no later
than 1.00 pm on the date prior to the Closing Date. Note that settlement
cannot take place on weekends or public holidays (or other times at which the
CREST system is non-operational) - you should therefore ensure you time the
input of any TTE Instruction(s) accordingly.

(ii)      If you hold MCM Shares in uncertificated form, but under
different member account IDs you should complete a separate TTE Instruction in
respect of each member account ID.

(iii)     The input and settlement of a TTE Instruction in accordance with
this section will constitute an acceptance of the Offer in respect of the
number of MCM Shares so transferred to escrow.

(iv)     If you are a CREST Sponsored Member, you should refer to your
CREST Sponsor before taking any action. Your CREST Sponsor will be able to
confirm details of your participant ID and the member account ID under which
your MCM Shares are held. In addition, only your CREST Sponsor will be able to
send the TTE Instruction to Euroclear in relation to your MCM Shares.

(v)      After settlement of the TTE Instruction, you will not be able to
access the MCM Shares concerned in CREST for any transaction or charging
purposes. If the Offer becomes or is declared unconditional, the Escrow Agent
will withdraw the MCM Shares which will be transferred to Goldway.

(vi)     You are recommended to refer to the CREST Manual published by
Euroclear for further information on the CREST procedures outlined above.

(vii)    You should note that Euroclear does not make available special
procedures in CREST for any particular corporate action. Normal system timings
and limitations will therefore apply in connection with a TTE instruction and
its settlement. You should therefore ensure that all necessary action is taken
by you (or by your CREST sponsor) to enable a TTE instruction relating to your
MCM Shares to settle prior to 1.00pm on the date prior to the Closing Date. In
this regard, you are referred in particular to those sections of the CREST
Manual concerning practical limitations of the CREST system and timings.

(viii)    Goldway will make an appropriate announcement if any of the
details contained in this section alter for any reason that is material to MCM
Shareholders.

(j)      To accept the Offer

(i)         To accept the Offer in its basic form in respect of MCM
Shares held in uncertificated form, you should send (or, if you are a CREST
Sponsored Member, procure that your CREST Sponsor sends) a TTE Instruction to
Euroclear in relation to such shares. A TTE Instruction must be properly
authenticated in accordance with Euroclear's specifications and must contain,
in addition to the other information that is required for a TTE Instruction to
settle in CREST, the following details:

(A)        the number of MCM Shares to be transferred to an escrow
balance;

(B)        your member account ID;

(C)        your participant ID;

(D)       the participant ID of the Receiving Agent. This is 3RA26;

(E)        the member account ID of the Escrow Agent. This is MCMGOL01;

(F)        the intended settlement date. This should be as soon as
possible and in any event not later than 1.00 pm on the date prior to the
Closing Date;

(G)       the Corporate Action ISIN. This is MCMGOL01;

(H)        the Corporate Action Number for the Offer is allocated by
Euroclear and can be found by reviewing the relevant corporate action details
in CREST;

(I)         input with standard TTE Instruction of 80; and

(J)        your name and contact telephone number in the shared note
field.

(k)      Deposit of MCM Shares into, and withdrawals of MCM Shares from,
CREST

(i)         Normal CREST procedures (including timings) apply in
relation to any MCM Shares that are, or are to be, converted from
uncertificated to certificated form, or from certificated to uncertificated
form, during the course of the Offer (whether any such conversion arises as a
result of a transfer of MCM Shares or otherwise). MCM Shareholders who are
proposing to convert any such shares are recommended to ensure that the
conversion procedures are implemented in sufficient time to enable the person
holding or acquiring the MCM Shares as a result of the conversion to take all
necessary steps in connection with an acceptance of the Offer (in particular,
as regards delivery of share certificate(s) and/or other document(s) of title
or transfers to an escrow balance as described above) prior to 1.00pm on the
date prior to the Closing Date.

(l)      Validity of acceptances

(i)         Holders of MCM Shares in uncertificated form who wish to
accept the Offer should note that a TTE Instruction will only be valid
acceptance of that Offer as at the relevant closing date if it has settled on
or before 1.00pm on the date prior to the Closing Date. An Acceptance Form
which is received in respect of MCM Shares held in uncertificated form will
not constitute a valid acceptance and will be disregarded.

(m)      Withdrawal of acceptances

(i)         In the case of MCM Shares held in uncertificated form, an
accepting MCM Shareholder may, if permitted in accordance with Section 13.5(a)
withdraw their acceptance through CREST by sending (or, if a CREST Sponsored
Member, procuring that their CREST Sponsor sends) an ESA Instruction to settle
in CREST in relation to each Electronic Acceptance to be withdrawn. Each ESA
Instruction must, in order for it to be valid and settle, include the
following details:

(A)        the number of MCM Shares to be withdrawn, together with
their ISIN number (this is AU000000MCM9);

(B)        the member account ID of the accepting MCM Shareholder,
together with their participant ID;

(C)        the Escrow Agent's participant ID (this is 3RA26) and the
member account ID of the Escrow Agent included in the relevant Electronic
Acceptance (this is MCMGOL01);

(D)       the CREST transaction ID of the Electronic Acceptance to be
withdrawn;

(E)        the intended settlement date for the withdrawal;

(F)        the corporate action number for the Offer allocated by
Euroclear which can be found by viewing the relevant corporate action details
in CREST; and

(G)       input with a standard delivery instruction priority of 80.

(ii)        Any such withdrawal will be conditional upon the Escrow
Agent verifying that the withdrawal request is validly made. Accordingly, the
Escrow Agent will on behalf of Goldway either reject the withdrawal by
transmitting in CREST a receiving agent reject (AEAD) message or accept the
withdrawal by transmitting in CREST a receiving agent accept (AEAN) message.

(iii)          MCM Shares in respect of which acceptances have been
validly withdrawn may subsequently be re-assented to the Offer following one
of the procedures described in of this Bidder's Statement at any time while
the Offer remains open for acceptance.

(iv)          Any question as to the validity (including time of
receipt) of any notice of withdrawal will be determined by Goldway whose
determination will be final and binding. None of Goldway, MCM, the Receiving
Agent or any other person will be under any duty to give notification of any
defect or irregularity in any notice of withdrawal or will incur any liability
for failure to do so.

(n)      General

(i)            For the purposes of this Bidder's Statement, the
time of receipt of a TTE Instruction, an ESA Instruction or an Electronic
Acceptance shall be the time at which the relevant instruction settles in
CREST.

(ii)           Neither Goldway nor any person acting on behalf of
Goldway, shall have any liability to any person for any loss or alleged loss
arising from any decision as to the treatment of acceptances of the Offer or
otherwise in connection therewith.

(iii)          If you are in any doubt as to the procedures for
acceptance, please contact the UK Receiving Agent, Computershare Investor
Services PLC by post at The Pavilions, Bridgwater Road, Bristol BS13 8AE,
United Kingdom or by telephone on +44 (0) 370 707 4040. Calls are charged at

taking any action.

13.5 'The effect of acceptance', add the following new subparagraphs:
