Disclosure requirements

Under Rule 8.3(a) of the Code, any person who is interested in 1% or more of any class of relevant securities of an
offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror (being any offeror other than an offeror in respect of which it has
been announced that its offer is, or is likely to be, solely in cash) must make an Opening Position Disclosure following
the commencement of the offer period and, if later, following the Announcement in which any securities exchange offeror
is first identified. An Opening Position Disclosure must contain details of the person's interests and short positions in,
and rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities of each of (i) the offeree company and (ii) any securities exchange
offeror(s). An Opening Position Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(a) applies must be made by no later than 3.30
p.m. (London time) on the 10th Business Day following the commencement of the offer period and, if appropriate, by no
later than 3.30 p.m. (London time) on the 10th Business Day following the announcement in which any securities
exchange offeror is first identified. Relevant persons who deal in the relevant securities of the offeree company or of a

Disclosure.

Under Rule 8.3(b) of the Code, any person who is, or becomes, interested in 1% or more of any class of relevant
securities of the offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror must make a Dealing Disclosure if the person
deals in any relevant securities of the offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror. A Dealing Disclosure must
contain details of the dealing concerned and of the person's interests and short positions in, and rights to subscribe for,
any relevant securities of each of (i) the offeree company and (ii) any securities exchange offeror(s), save to the extent
that these details have previously been disclosed under Rule 8. A Dealing Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(b)
applies must be made by no later than 3.30 p.m. (London time) on the Business Day following the date of the relevant
dealing.

If two or more persons act together pursuant to an agreement or understanding, whether formal or informal, to acquire
or control an interest in relevant securities of an offeree company or a securities exchange offeror, they will be deemed
to be a single person for the purpose of Rule 8.3.

Opening Position Disclosures must also be made by the offeree company and by any offeror and Dealing Disclosures
must also be made by the offeree company, by any offeror and by any persons acting in concert with any of them (see
Rules 8.1, 8.2 and 8.4).
Details of the offeree and offeror companies in respect of whose relevant securities Opening Position Disclosures and
Dealing Disclosures must be made can be found in the Disclosure Table on the Takeover Panel's website at
www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk, including details of the number of relevant securities in issue, when the offer period
commenced and when any offeror was first identified. You should contact the Panel's Market Surveillance Unit on +44
(0)20 7638 0129 if you are in any doubt as to whether you are required to make an Opening Position Disclosure or a
Dealing Disclosure.
