as Non-Executive Directors.

The Company now has approximately 7,550 people in 33 countries with
approximately 80% of net revenue across the Americas, 15% across Europe, the
Middle East and Africa and 5% across Asia-Pacific. The longer-term objective
is a geographic split of 60%:20%:20%. Content currently accounts for
approximately 60% of net revenue, Data&Digital Media 25% and Technology
Services 15%. The long-term objective for the practices is a split of
50%:25%:25%.

million 'shell' company in 1985 into the world's largest advertising and
