The net proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes.

Application has been made for the New Shares to be admitted to the Official List of the UK Listing Authority and admitted to trading on the London Stock Exchange, which is expected on 6 September 2010.

As a result of the above issue, the Company has reduced the number of shares in respect of which it has made a block listing application to 34,241,816 Ordinary Shares of 0.01p each.

The Ordinary Shares may be issued for cash from time to time for the general corporate purposes of the Company. Any such issues will be made at a price above the net asset value per share as at the time of issue. New Ordinary Shares will be issued fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing issued Ordinary Shares of the Company.

As at today's date, the Company may issue up to a further 34,241,816 Ordinary Shares without the need to produce a prospectus pursuant to the requirements of Prospectus Rule 1.2.3R(1).

TOTAL VOTING RIGHTS

As a result of the issue of equity set out above, the Company will have 468,918,171 issued ordinary shares admitted to trading on a regulated or prescribed market. Each ordinary share carries the right to one vote in relation to all circumstances at general meetings of the Company. The Company does not hold any ordinary shares in treasury. The total voting rights figure may be used by shareholders (and others with notification obligations) as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine whether they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the FSA's Disclosure Rules and Transparency Rules.
