DISCLAIMER: This announcement must be read in conjunction with the
Tender Offer Memorandum. This announcement and the Tender Offer
Memorandum contain important information which should be read carefully
before any decision is made with respect to the Tender Offers. If any
Securityholder is in any doubt as to the contents of the Tender Offer
Memorandum or the action it should take, it is recommended to seek its
own financial advice, including in respect of any tax consequences, from
its stockbroker, bank manager, solicitor, tax advisor, accountant or
other appropriately authorised independent financial adviser. Any
individual or company whose Securities are held on its behalf by a
broker, dealer, bank, custodian, trust company or other nominee must
contact such entity if it wishes to tender such Securities pursuant to
the relevant Tender Offer. None of the Issuer, the Dealer Managers or
the Tender Agent or any of their respective directors, employees or
affiliates expresses any opinion about the terms or merits of the Tender
Offers or makes any recommendation whether Securityholders should tender
Securities pursuant to the Tender Offers, and the Dealer Managers and
the Tender Agent and their respective directors, employees and
affiliates do not accept any responsibility for the accuracy or
completeness of the information contained in this announcement or the
Tender Offer Memorandum including (without limitation) information
concerning the Issuer or its subsidiaries and affiliates or for any
failure by the Issuer to disclose events that may have occurred and may
affect the significance or accuracy of such information.
OFFER AND DISTRIBUTION RESTRICTIONS: The distribution of this
announcement and the Tender Offer Memorandum in certain jurisdictions
may be restricted by law. Persons into whose possession this
announcement and/or the Tender Offer Memorandum comes are required by
each of the Issuer, the Dealer Managers and the Tender Agent to inform
themselves about, and to observe, any such restrictions. Neither this
announcement nor the Tender Offer Memorandum constitutes an offer to buy
or a solicitation of an offer to sell the Securities (and tenders of
Securities in the Tender Offers will not be accepted from
Securityholders) in any circumstances in which such offer or
solicitation is unlawful. In those jurisdictions where the securities,
blue sky or other laws require the Tender Offers to be made by a
licensed broker or dealer and any Dealer Manager or any of the Dealer
Managers' affiliates is such a licensed broker or dealer in any such
jurisdiction, the relevant Tender Offer shall be deemed to be made by
such Dealer Manager or such affiliate, as the case may be, on behalf of
the Issuer in such jurisdiction.
In addition to the representations referred to below in respect of the
United States, each holder of Securities participating in the Tender
Offers will also be deemed to give certain representations in respect of
the other jurisdictions referred to below and generally as set out in
the Tender Offer Memorandum. Any tender of Securities for purchase
pursuant to the relevant Tender Offer from a Securityholder that is
unable to make these representations will not be accepted. Each of the
Issuer, the Dealer Managers and the Tender Agent reserves the right, in
its absolute discretion, to investigate, in relation to any tender of
Securities for purchase pursuant to the relevant Tender Offer, whether
any such representation given by a Securityholder is correct and, if
such investigation is undertaken and as a result the Issuer determines
(for any reason) that such representation is not correct, such tender
shall not be accepted.
UNITED STATES: The Tender Offers are not being made, and will not be
made, directly or indirectly in or into, or by use of the mail of, or by
