Notice for US Shareholders

The tender offer relates to securities of a non-U.S. company organized in England and Wales and listed on the London Stock Exchange and is subject to the disclosure requirements, rules and practices applicable to companies listed in the United Kingdom, which differ from those of the United States in certain material respects. A circular will be prepared in accordance with U.K. style and practice for the purpose of complying with the laws of England and Wales and the rules of the FCA and of the London Stock Exchange. The tender offer is not subject to the disclosure or other procedural requirements of Regulation 14D under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The tender offer will be made in the United States pursuant to Section 14(e) of, and Regulation 14E under, the Exchange Act, subject to the exemptions provided by Rule 14d-1(d) thereunder, and otherwise in accordance with the requirements of the rules of the FCA and the London Stock Exchange. Accordingly, the tender offer will be subject to disclosure and other procedural requirements that are different from those applicable under U.S. domestic tender offer procedures and law. The Company is not listed on an American securities exchange, is not subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and is not required to, and does not, file any reports thereunder.

It may be difficult for U.S. shareholders to enforce certain rights and claims arising in connection with the tender offer under U.S. federal securities laws, because the Company is located outside the United States, and its officers and directors reside outside the United States. It may not be possible to sue a non-U.S. company or its officers or directors in a non-U.S. court for violations of U.S. securities laws. It also might not be possible to compel a non-U.S. company or its affiliates to subject themselves to a U.S. court's judgement.

To the extent permitted by applicable law and in accordance with normal U.K. practice, the Company or Investec or any of their affiliates may make certain purchases of, or arrangements to purchase, shares of the Company outside the United States during the period in which the tender offer remains open for acceptance, including shares and purchases of shares effected by Investec as market maker in the Shares.
