Shares, and setting out the arrangements made by the Company in that respect,
has been submitted to the UK Listing Authority. In addition, an accompanying C
Share guidance booklet, a C Share Evergreen Mandate form and a booklet setting
out the terms and conditions relating to operation by the Company's Registrar
of the C Share Reinvestment Plan have also been submitted.
