foreign securities. The rule requires the issuer to provide the SEC with
information that it 1) has made or is required to make public pursuant to the
law of the country of its domicile or in which it is incorporated or organised;
2) has filed or is required to file with a stock exchange on which its
securities are traded and that were made public by such exchange; and/or 3) has
distributed or it is required to distribute to its security holders.
Accordingly, the Company files hard copies of its UK regulatory filings and
shareholder circulars with the US Securities and Exchange Commission.
