Re: Section 67 Notification
Please find enclosed a Notification of Interests filed pursuant to Section 67 of
the Companies Act, 1990. This Notice is filed by The Capital Group Companies,
Inc. ('CGC').
The Capital Group Companies, Inc. ('CGC') is a holding company for several
subsidiary companies engaged in investment management business. The investment
management business is divided into two operational groups, represented by
Capital Research and Management Company ('CRMC') and Capital Group International
Inc. ('CGII'). CRMC is a U.S.-based investment adviser that manages The American
Funds Group of mutual funds. CGII is the parent company of five companies that
serve as investment managers to various institutional clients around the globe:
Capital Guardian Trust Company in the U.S.. Capital International, Inc. in the
U.S. and Singapore, Capital International Limited in the United Kingdom, Capital
International S.A. in Switzerland and Capital International K.K. in Japan. For
a more complete description of our organization, please visit our Web site at
www.capgroup.com
Neither CGC nor any of its subsidiaries own shares of your company for their own
account. Rather, the shares reported in this Notification are owned by accounts
under the discretionary investment management of one or more of the investment
management companies described above. Furthermore, CRMC and CGII act separately
from one another and from CGC in exercising investment discretion over their
managed accounts.
For the purposes of this Notification an outstanding share balance of
754,316,084 shares was used to calculate the percentages of holdings of the
relevant share capital which determine the notifiable interest. We believe this
outstanding share balance is current; however, if this number is not accurate,
please contact us as soon as possible so we may make the necessary revisions to
this Notification.
Should you have questions or require additional information, please contact Inmo
Khang or Gina Martinez at (213) 615-0469, or send a fax message to (213)
486-9698. Alternatively, you may contact us via E-mail at
