The New Shares will, when issued, be credited as fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing ordinary shares.

The above figure of 85,452,024 may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
