Save in respect of voting rights and subject to article 10, each Class A Ordinary Share shall rank pari passu in all respects with all other ordinary shares in the capital of the Company, including (but not limited to) as to rights to receive dividends and distributions, liquidation rights and proceeds upon a change of control.

(b)Class B Ordinary Shares: Each Class B Ordinary Share shall be non-redeemable and shall be issued with 15 votes attaching to it for voting purposes in respect of all matters on which ordinary shares in the capital of the Company have voting rights. Save in respect of voting rights and subject to article 10, each Class B Ordinary Share shall rank pari passu in all respects with all other ordinary shares in the capital of the Company, including (but not limited to) as to rights to receive dividends and distributions, liquidation rights and proceeds upon a change of control.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Deferred Shares shall have the rights and be subject to the restrictions set out in article 7 below only and shall be treated in all respects as a distinct class of shares in the capital of the Company to those of the Class A Ordinary Shares and the Class B Ordinary Shares.

5.Rights attaching to Class B Ordinary Shares

7

(ii)any dividend or other distribution to the Class A Ordinary Shares which is not made pro rata to the Class B Ordinary Shares; or

(iii)the shares of the Class A Ordinary Shares are proposed to be treated differently from Class B Ordinary Shares with respect to any consolidation, subdivision, recapitalisation or similar; or with respect to any consideration into which the shares are converted or any consideration paid or otherwise distributed to the Company's (or any successor’s) shareholders upon a change of control following a Listing Transaction,

in each case where such action would be reasonably likely to adversely affect the rights attaching to the Class B Ordinary Shares.

(b)To the extent that any matter referred to in article 5(a) would be given effect by way of special resolution, the majority referred to in the definition of "special resolution" shall be a majority comprising both: (i) 75 per cent. of the votes cast by such members present and entitled to vote (including, where proxies are allowed, votes cast by proxy) at the applicable meeting; and (ii) the positive vote of a member or members present and entitled to vote (including, where proxies are allowed, votes cast by proxy) who alone or together hold more than 50 per cent. of the issued Class B Ordinary Shares (which shall be deemed to constitute the prior approval of the holders of more than 50 per cent. of the issued Class B Ordinary Shares referred to above).

(c)Subject to the requirements of article 6, any rights attaching to the Class B Ordinary Shares may only be varied in accordance with the provisions of article 20.

6.Rights attaching to Class A Ordinary Shares

(a)The prior approval of holders of more than 50 per cent. of the issued Class A Ordinary Shares shall be required for the following matters:

(i)any amendment to the powers, preferences or other rights attached to the Class B Ordinary Shares, including (but not limited to) in respect of any subdivision, consolidation or conversion;

(ii)any dividend or other distribution to the Class B Ordinary Shares which is not made pro rata to the Class A Ordinary Shares; or

8



in each case where such action would be reasonably likely to adversely affect the rights attaching to the Class A Ordinary Shares, for which purpose, where the Class A Ordinary Shares are held by a single holder, that holder shall be entitled to specify the number of Class A Ordinary Shares in respect of which it gives its prior approval, and the reference above to the prior approval of holders of more than fifty percent (50 per cent.) of the issued Class A Ordinary Shares shall be deemed to be to the prior approval of the holder of the Class A Ordinary Shares in respect of more than fifty percent (50 per cent.) of the issued Class A Ordinary Shares.

(b)To the extent that any matter referred to in article 6(a) would be given effect by way of special resolution, the majority referred to in the definition of "special resolution" shall be a majority comprising both: (i) 75 per cent. of the votes cast by such members present and entitled to vote (including, where proxies are allowed, votes cast by proxy) at the applicable meeting; and (ii) the positive vote of a member or members present and entitled to vote (including, where proxies are allowed, votes cast by proxy) who alone or together are entitled to exercise more than 50 per cent. of the total voting rights exercisable by all of the Class A Ordinary Shares (which shall be deemed to constitute the prior approval of the holders of more than fifty percent (50 per cent.) of the issued Class A Ordinary Shares referred to above).

(c)Subject to the requirements of article 5, any rights attaching to the Class A Ordinary Shares may only be varied in accordance with the provisions of article 20.

(c)the Board may, and where required pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement the Board shall:

9

(ii)nominate any person to execute and do all such deeds, documents, acts and things as may be necessary to give effect to the actions contemplated by this article 7; and

(d)the rights attached to the Deferred Shares shall not be deemed to be varied or abrogated by the creation or issue of any new shares ranking in priority to or pari passu with or subsequent to such shares, any amendment or variation of the rights of any other class of shares of the Company, the Company reducing its share capital or surrender or purchase of any share, whether a Deferred Share or otherwise.

37



80.Provisions applicable to declarations of interest

For the purposes of article 79:

(a)the disclosure shall be made at the first meeting of the directors at which the transaction is considered after the director concerned becomes aware of the circumstances giving rise to such director's duty to make it or, if for any reason the director fails to do so at such meeting, as soon as practical after the meeting, by notice in writing delivered to the secretary;

(b)the secretary, where the disclosure is made to shall inform the directors that it has been made and shall in any event table the notice of the disclosure at the next meeting after it is made;

(c)a disclosure to the Company by a director in accordance with article 80(a) above that such director is to be regarded as interested in a transaction with a specified person is sufficient disclosure of that director's interest in any such transaction entered into after the disclosure is made; and

(d)any disclosure made at a meeting of the directors shall be recorded in the minutes of the meeting.

81.Directors' interests and voting

(a)Subject to the Statutes and to declaring any interest or interests in accordance with articles 79 and 80, a director may:

(i)enter into or be interested in any transaction or arrangement with the Company, either with regard to the director's tenure of any office or position in the management, administration or conduct of the business of the Company or as vendor, purchaser or otherwise;

(ii)hold any other office or place of profit with the Company (except that of auditor) in conjunction with the director's office of director for such period (subject to the Statutes) and upon such terms as the Board may decide and be paid such extra remuneration for so doing (whether by way of salary, commission, participation in profits or otherwise) as the Board may decide, either in addition to or in lieu of any remuneration under any other provision of these articles;

(iii)act personally or by the director's firm in a professional capacity for the Company (except as auditor) and be entitled to remuneration for professional services as if the director were not a director;

The Board may cause the voting rights conferred by the shares in any other company held or owned by the Company or exercisable by them as directors of that other company to be exercised in such manner in all respects as it thinks fit (including the exercise of voting rights in favour of any resolution appointing the directors or any of them as directors or officers of the other company or voting or providing for the payment of any benefit to the directors or officers of the other company); and
38


(i)be or become a director, manager or employee of, or a consultant to, or acquire or retain any direct or indirect interest in, any entity (whether or not a body corporate) in which the Company does not have an interest if that cannot reasonably be regarded as likely to give rise to a conflict of interest at the time of the director's appointment as a director of that other company.

(b)A director shall not, by reason of holding office as director (or of the fiduciary relationship established by holding that office), be liable to account to the Company for any remuneration, profit or other benefit resulting from any interest permitted under paragraph (a) above and no contract shall be liable to be avoided on the grounds of any director having any type of interest permitted under paragraph (a) above.

(c)A director shall not vote (or be counted in the quorum at a meeting) in respect of any resolution concerning that director's own appointment (including fixing or varying its terms), or the termination of that director's own appointment, as the holder of any office or place of profit with the Company or any other company in which the Company is interested but, where proposals are under consideration concerning the appointment (including fixing or varying its terms), or the termination of the appointment, of two or more directors to offices or places of profit with the Company or any other company in which the Company is interested, those proposals may be divided and a separate resolution may be put in relation to each director and in that case each of the directors concerned (if not otherwise debarred from voting under this article) shall be entitled to vote (and be counted in the quorum) in respect of each resolution unless it concerns that director's own appointment or the termination of that director's own appointment.

(d)A director shall also not vote (or be counted in the quorum at a meeting) in relation to any resolution relating to any transaction or arrangement with the Company in which the director has an interest which may reasonably be regarded as likely to give rise to a conflict of interest and, if the director purports to do so, the director's vote shall not be counted, but this prohibition shall not apply and a director may vote (and be counted in the quorum) in respect of any resolution concerning any one or more of the following matters:

(i)any transaction or arrangement in which the director is interested by virtue of an interest in shares, debentures or other securities of the Company or otherwise in or through the Company;

(ii)the giving of any guarantee, security or indemnity in respect of:

(A)money lent or obligations incurred by the director or by any other person at the request of, or for the benefit of, the Company or any of its subsidiary undertakings; or

(B)a debt or obligation of the Company or any of its subsidiary undertakings for which the director personally has assumed responsibility in whole or in part (either alone or jointly with others) under a guarantee or indemnity or by the giving of security;

(iii)indemnification (including loans made in connection with it) by the Company in relation to the performance of the director's duties on behalf of the Company or of any of its subsidiary undertakings;

39



(iv)any issue or offer of shares, debentures or other securities of the Company or any of its subsidiary undertakings in respect of which the director is or may be entitled to participate in the director's capacity as a holder of any such securities or as an underwriter or sub-underwriter;

(v)any transaction or arrangement concerning any other company in which the director does not hold, directly or indirectly as shareholder voting rights representing one per cent. or more of any class of shares in the capital of that company;

(vi)any arrangement for the benefit of employees of the Company or any of its subsidiary undertakings which does not accord to the director any privilege or benefit not generally accorded to the employees to whom the arrangement relates; and

(vii)the purchase or maintenance of insurance for the benefit of directors or for the benefit of persons including directors.

(e)If any question arises at any meeting as to whether an interest of a director (other than the chair of the meeting) may reasonably be regarded as likely to give rise to a conflict of interest or as to the entitlement of any director (other than the chair of the meeting) to vote in relation to a transaction or arrangement with the Company and the question is not resolved by the director voluntarily agreeing to abstain from voting, the question shall be referred to the chair of the meeting and the chair's ruling in relation to the director concerned shall be final and conclusive except in a case where the nature or extent of the interest of the director concerned, so far as known to the director concerned, has not been fairly disclosed. If any question shall arise in respect of the chair of the meeting and is not resolved by the chair voluntarily agreeing to abstain from voting, the question shall be decided by a resolution of the Board (for which purpose the chair shall be counted in the quorum but shall not vote on the matter) and the resolution shall be final and conclusive except in a case where the nature or extent of the interest of the chair of the meeting, so far as known to the chair, has not been fairly disclosed.

(f)Subject to the Statutes, the Company may by ordinary resolution suspend or relax the provisions of this article to any extent or ratify any transaction or arrangement not duly authorised by reason of a contravention of this article.

82.No duty of confidentiality to another person; waiver of corporate opportunity

(a)A director shall be under no duty to the Company with respect to any information which he obtains or has obtained otherwise than as a director of the Company and in respect of which he owes a duty of confidentiality to another person. In particular, the director shall not be in breach of the general duties he owes to the Company because he fails:

(i)to disclose any such information to the Board or to any director or other officer or employee of the Company; and/or

(ii)to use or apply any such information in performing his duties as a director of the Company.

40



(b)Where the existence of a director's relationship with another person gives rise to a conflict of interest or possible conflict of interest, the director shall not be in breach of the general duties he owes to the Company because he:

(i)absents himself from meetings of the Board at which any matter relating to the conflict of interest or possible conflict of interest will or may be discussed or from the discussion of any such matter at a meeting or otherwise; and/or

(ii)makes arrangements not to receive documents and information relating to any matter which gives rise to the conflict of interest or possible conflict of interest sent or supplied by the Company and/or for such documents and information to be received and read by a professional adviser,

for so long as he reasonably believes such conflict of interest or possible conflict of interest subsists.

(c)To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company hereby agrees that no director (excluding the Founder) (a relevant director) shall have any obligation to refrain from engaging, directly or indirectly and whether or not by or through his affiliates, in the same or similar business activities or lines of business as the Company or any of its subsidiaries. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company, on behalf of itself and its subsidiaries, renounces any interest or expectancy of the Company and its subsidiaries in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, business opportunities that are from time to time available to any relevant director or his affiliates, even if the opportunity is one that the Company or its subsidiaries might reasonably be deemed to have pursued or had the ability or desire to pursue if granted the opportunity to do so. The Company hereby further agrees that no relevant director shall have any duty to communicate or offer such business opportunity to the Company (and that there shall be no restriction on any relevant director or any of his affiliates using the general knowledge and understanding of the Company and the industry in which the Company operates that such relevant director has gained from occupying the position of a director) and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, shall not be liable to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or shareholders for breach of any fiduciary or other duty as a director solely by reason of the fact that the relevant director or his affiliates pursue or acquire such business opportunity, directs such business opportunity to another person or fails to present such business opportunity, or information regarding such business opportunity, to the Company or its subsidiaries, or uses such knowledge and understanding in the manner described herein.

(d)For the purposes of paragraph (c) above and article 11(c), an affiliate of a relevant director means an entity (whether or not a body corporate) of which the relevant director is a director, manager or employee, or to which the relevant director is a consultant, or in which the relevant director has any direct or indirect interest (an affiliated entity), and any other entity (whether or not a body corporate) in which an affiliated entity of the relevant director has any direct or indirect interest, but in each case excluding the Company and its subsidiaries.

(e)The provisions of paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) above are without prejudice to any equitable principle or rule of law which may excuse the director from:

(i)disclosing information, in circumstances where disclosure would otherwise be required under these articles; or

41



(ii)attending meetings or discussions or receiving documents and information as referred to in paragraph (b) above, in circumstances where such attendance or receiving such documents and information would otherwise be required under these articles or the law.

42


1.Telephone/electronic board meetings

(a)A board meeting may consist of a conference between directors some or all of whom are in different places provided that each director may participate in the business of the meeting whether directly, by telephone or by any other means (whether electronically or otherwise) which enables the director:

(i)to hear (or otherwise receive real time communications made by) each of the other participating directors addressing the meeting; and

(ii)if the director so wishes, to address all of the other participating directors simultaneously (or otherwise communicate in real time with them).

(b)A quorum is deemed to be present if at least the number of directors required to form a quorum, subject to the provisions of article 71, may participate in the manner specified above in the business of the meeting.

(c)A board meeting held in this way is deemed to take place at the place where the largest group of participating directors is assembled or, if no such group is readily identifiable, at the place from where the chair of the meeting participates.

(d)A resolution passed at any meeting held in the above manner, and signed by the chair of the meeting, shall be as valid and effectual as if it had been passed at a meeting of the Board (or committee of the Board, as the case may be) duly convened and held.

90.Resolutions without meetings

A resolution which is signed or approved by all the directors entitled to vote on that resolution (and whose vote would have been counted) shall be as valid and effectual as if it had been passed at a board meeting duly called and constituted. The resolution may be contained in one document or communication in electronic form or in several documents or communications in electronic form (in like form), each signed or approved by one or more of the directors concerned. For the purpose of this article the approval of a director shall be given in hard copy form or in electronic form.

91.Validity of acts of directors in spite of formal defect

All acts bona fide done by a meeting of the Board, or of a committee, or by any person acting as a director or a member of a committee, shall, notwithstanding that it is afterwards discovered that there was some defect in the appointment of any member of the Board or committee or of the person so acting, or that they or any of them were disqualified or had vacated office or were not entitled to vote, be as valid as if every such person had been duly appointed and qualified to be a director and had continued to be a director or member of the committee and had been entitled to vote.

92.Minutes

The Board shall cause minutes to be made and kept in books kept for the purpose:

(i)of all appointments of officers made by the Board;

(ii)of the names of all the directors present at each meeting of the Board and of any committee; and
43

SHARE CERTIFICATES

94.Issue of share certificates

(a)A person whose name is entered in the register as the holder of any certificated shares shall be entitled (unless the conditions of issue otherwise provide) within the time limits prescribed by the Statutes to receive one certificate for those shares, or one certificate for each class of those shares and, if that person transfers part of the shares represented by a certificate in that person's name, or elects to hold part in uncertificated form, to receive a new certificate for the balance of those shares, provided in all cases that there shall be no requirement to issue any certificate to Cede & Co. in respect of any shares held by it.

(b)In the case of joint holders, the Company shall not be bound to issue more than one certificate for all the shares in any particular class registered in their joint names, and delivery of a certificate for a share to any one of the joint holders shall be sufficient delivery to all.

(c)A share certificate shall be issued under seal or signed by at least one director and the secretary or by at least two directors (which may include any signature being applied mechanically or electronically). A share certificate shall specify the number and class of the shares to which it relates and the amount or respective amounts paid up on the shares and (where required by the Statutes), the distinguishing numbers of such shares. Any certificate so issued shall, as against the Company, be prima facie evidence of title of the person named in that certificate to the shares comprised in it.

(d)A share certificate may be given to a member in accordance with the provisions of these articles on notices and the Statutes.

95.Charges for and replacement of certificates

(a)Except as expressly provided to the contrary in these articles, no fee shall be charged for the issue of a share certificate.

(b)Any two or more certificates representing shares of any one class held by any member may at the member's request be cancelled and a single new certificate issued.

(c)If any member surrenders for cancellation a certificate representing shares held by that member and requests the Company to issue two or more certificates representing those shares in such proportions as that member may specify, the Board may, if it thinks fit, comply with the request on payment of such fee (if any) as the Board may decide.

44



(d)If a certificate is damaged or defaced or alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, a new certificate representing the same shares may be issued on compliance with such conditions as to evidence, indemnity and security for such indemnity as the Board may think fit and on payment of any exceptional expenses of the Company incidental to its investigation of the evidence and preparation of the indemnity and security and, if damaged or defaced, on delivery up of the old certificate.

(e)In the case of joint holders of a share a request for a new certificate under any of the preceding paragraphs of this article may be made by any one of the joint holders unless the certificate is alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

LIEN ON SHARES

96.Lien on partly paid shares

(a)The Company shall have a first and paramount lien on every share (not being a fully paid share) for all amounts payable (whether or not due) in respect of that share. The lien shall extend to every amount payable in respect of that share.

(b)The Board may at any time either generally or in any particular case declare any share to be wholly or partly exempt from this article. Unless otherwise agreed, the registration of a transfer of a share shall operate as a waiver of the Company's lien (if any) on that share.

97.Enforcement of lien

(a)The Company may sell any share subject to a lien in such manner as the Board may decide if an amount payable on the share is due and is not paid within 14 clear days after a notice has been given to the holder or any person entitled by transmission to the share demanding payment of that amount and giving notice of intention to sell in default.

(b)To give effect to any sale under this article, the Board may authorise some person to transfer the share sold to, or as directed by, the purchaser. The purchaser shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money nor shall the title of the new holder to the share be affected by any irregularity in or invalidity of the proceedings relating to the sale.

(c)The net proceeds of the sale, after payment of the costs of such sale, shall be applied in or towards satisfaction of the amount due and any residue shall (subject to a like lien for any amounts not presently due as existed on the share before the sale), on surrender, in the case of shares held in certificated form, of the certificate for the shares sold, be paid to the holder or person entitled by transmission to the share immediately before the sale.

CALLS ON SHARES

98.Calls

(a)Subject to the terms of these articles and the terms of which the shares are allotted, the Board may make calls on the members in respect of any moneys unpaid on their shares (whether in respect of nominal amount or premium) and not payable on a date fixed by or in accordance with the terms of issue. Each member shall (subject to receiving at least 14 clear days' notice specifying when and where payment is to be

45



made) pay to the Company as required by the notice the amount called on the member's shares. A call may be revoked or postponed as the Board may decide.

(b)Any call may be made payable in one sum or by instalments and shall be deemed to be made at the time when the resolution of the Board authorising that call is passed.

(c)A person on whom a call is made shall remain liable for it notwithstanding the subsequent transfer of the share in respect of which the call is made.

(d)The joint holders of a share shall be jointly and severally liable for the payment of all calls in respect of that share.

99.Interest on calls

If a call is not paid before or on the due date for payment, the person from whom it is due shall pay interest on the amount unpaid, from the due date for payment to the date of actual payment, at such rate as the Board may decide, but the Board may waive payment of the interest, wholly or in part.

100.Sums treated as calls

A sum which by the terms of allotment of a share is payable on allotment, or at a fixed time, or by instalments at fixed times, whether in respect of nominal value or premium, shall for all purposes of these articles be deemed to be a call duly made and payable on the date or dates fixed for payment and, in case of non-payment, these articles shall apply as if that sum had become due and payable by virtue of a call.

101.Power to differentiate

On any allotment of shares the Board may make arrangements for a difference between the allottees or holders of the shares in the amounts and times of payment of calls on their shares.

102.Payment of calls in advance

The Board may, if it thinks fit, receive all or any part of the moneys payable on a share beyond the sum actually called up on it if the holder is willing to make payment in advance and, on any moneys so paid in advance, may (until they would otherwise be due) pay interest at such rate as may be agreed between the Board and the member paying the sum in advance.

FORFEITURE OF SHARES

103.Notice of unpaid calls

(a)If the whole or any part of any call or instalment remains unpaid on any share after the due date for payment, the Board may give a notice to the holder requiring the holder to pay so much of the call or instalment as remains unpaid, together with any accrued interest.

(b)The notice shall state a further day, being not less than 14 clear days from the date of the notice, on or before which, and the place where, payment is to be made and shall state that, in the event of non-payment on or before the day and at the place appointed, the share in respect of which the call was made or instalment is payable will be liable to be forfeited.

46



(c)The Board may accept a surrender of any share liable to be forfeited.

104.Forfeiture on non-compliance with notice

(a)If the requirements of a notice given under article 103 are not complied with, any share in respect of which it was given may at any time thereafter (before the payment required by the notice is made) be forfeited by a resolution of the Board. The forfeiture shall include all dividends declared and other moneys payable in respect of the forfeited share and not actually paid before the forfeiture.

(b)If a share is forfeited, notice of the forfeiture shall be given to the person who was the holder of the share or (as the case may be) the person entitled to the share by transmission, and an entry that notice of the forfeiture has been given, with the relevant date, shall be made in the register; but no forfeiture shall be invalidated by any omission to give such notice or to make such entry.

105.Power to annul forfeiture or surrender

The Board may, at any time before the forfeited or surrendered share has been sold, re- allotted or otherwise disposed of, annul the forfeiture or surrender upon payment of all calls and interest due on or incurred in respect of the share and on such further conditions (if any) as it thinks fit.

106.Disposal of forfeited or surrendered shares

(a)Every share which is forfeited or surrendered shall become the property of the Company and (subject to the Statutes) may be sold, re-allotted or otherwise disposed of, upon such terms and in such manner as the Board shall decide either to the person who was before the forfeiture the holder of the share or to any other person and whether with or without all or any part of the amount previously paid up on the share being credited as so paid up. The Board may for the purposes of a disposal authorise some person to transfer the forfeited or surrendered share to, or in accordance with the directions of, any person to whom the same has been disposed of.

(b)A statutory declaration by a director or the secretary that a share has been forfeited or surrendered on a specified date shall, as against all persons claiming to be entitled to the share, be conclusive evidence of the facts stated in it and shall (subject to the execution of any necessary transfer) constitute a good title to the share. The person to whom the share has been disposed of shall not be bound to see to the application of the consideration for the disposal (if any) nor shall that person's title to the share be affected by any irregularity in or invalidity of the proceedings connected with the forfeiture, surrender, sale, re-allotment or disposal of the share.

107.Arrears to be paid notwithstanding forfeiture or surrender

A person any of whose shares have been forfeited or surrendered shall cease to be a member in respect of the forfeited or surrendered share and shall, in the case of shares held in certificated form, surrender to the Company for cancellation any certificate for the share forfeited or surrendered, but shall remain liable (unless payment is waived in whole or in part by the Board) to pay to the Company all moneys payable by that person on or in respect of that share at the time of forfeiture or surrender, together with interest from the time of forfeiture or surrender until payment at such rate as the Board shall decide, in the same manner as if the share had not been forfeited or surrendered. The Board may waive payment of interest wholly or in party and may enforce payment, without any reduction or allowance

47



for the value of the shares at the time of forfeiture or for any consideration received on their disposal. Such a person shall also be liable to satisfy all the claims and demands (if any) which the Company might have enforced in respect of the share at the time of forfeiture or surrender. No deduction or allowance shall be made for the value of the share at the time of forfeiture or surrender or for any consideration received on its disposal.

SEAL

108.Seal

(a)The Company may exercise the powers conferred by the Statutes with regard to having official seals and those powers shall be vested in the Board.

(b)The Board shall provide for the safe custody of every seal of the Company.

(c)A seal shall be used only by the authority of the Board or a duly authorised committee but that authority may consist of an instruction or approval given in hard copy form or in electronic form by a majority of the directors or of the members of a duly authorised committee.

(d)The Board may determine who shall sign any instrument to which a seal is applied, either generally or in relation to a particular instrument or type of instrument, and may also determine, either generally or in any particular case, that such signatures shall be dispensed with or affixed by some mechanical means.

(e)Unless otherwise decided by the Board:

(i)certificates for shares, debentures or other securities of the Company issued under seal need not be signed; and

(ii)every other instrument to which a seal is applied shall be signed by at least one director and the secretary or by at least two directors or by one director in the presence of a witness who attests the signature.

DIVIDENDS

109.Declaration of dividends by the Company

Subject to the provisions of the Companies Law, the Company may, by ordinary resolution, declare a dividend to be paid to the members, according to their respective rights and interests in the profits, and may fix the time for payment of such dividend, but no dividend shall exceed the amount recommended by the Board.

110.Fixed and interim dividends

Subject to the provisions of the Companies Law, the Board may pay interim dividends and may also pay any dividend payable at a fixed rate at intervals settled by the Board whenever the financial position of the Company, in the opinion of the Board, justifies its payment. If the Board acts in good faith, none of the directors shall incur any liability to the holders of shares conferring preferred rights for any loss such holders may suffer in consequence of the payment of an interim dividend on any shares having non-preferred or deferred rights.
48


1.Calculation and currency of dividends

(a)Except insofar as the rights attaching to, or the terms of issue of, any share otherwise provide:

(i)all dividends shall be declared and paid according to the amounts paid up on the shares in respect of which the dividend is paid, but no amount paid up on a share in advance of calls shall be treated for the purposes of this article as paid up on the share;

(ii)all dividends shall be apportioned and paid pro rata according to the amounts paid up on the shares during any portion or portions of the period in respect of which the dividend is paid; and

(iii)dividends may be declared or paid in any currency.

(b)The Board may agree with any member that dividends which may at any time or from time to time be declared or become due on that member's shares in one currency shall be paid or satisfied in another, and may agree the basis of conversion to be applied and how and when the amount to be paid in the other currency shall be calculated and paid and for the Company or any other person to bear any costs involved.

112.Method of payment

(a)The Company may pay any dividend or other sum payable in respect of a share by such method as the Board may decide. The Board may decide to use different methods of payment for different holders or groups of holders. Without limiting any other method of payment which the Board may decide upon, the Board may decide that payment can be made, wholly or partly and exclusively or optionally:

(i)by cheque or dividend warrant payable to the holder (or, in the case of joint holders, the holder whose name stands first in the register in respect of the relevant share) or to such other person as the holder (or, in the case of joint holders, all the joint holders) may notify to the Company for the purpose; or

(ii)by a bank or other funds transfer system or by such other electronic means as the Board may decide (including, in the case of an uncertificated share, a relevant system) to such account as the holder (or, in the case of joint holders, all the joint holders) may notify to the Company for the purpose; or

(iii)in such other way as may be agreed between the Company and the holder (or, in the case of joint holders, all such holders).

(b)If the Board decides that any dividend or other sum payable in respect of a share will be made exclusively by one or more of the methods referred to in paragraph (a)(ii) above to an account, but no such account is nominated by the holder (or, in case of joint holders, all the joint holders) or if an attempted payment into a nominated account is rejected or refunded, the Company may treat that dividend or other sum payable as unclaimed.

(c)Any such cheque or dividend warrant may be sent by post to the registered address of the holder (or, in the case of joint holders, to the registered address of that person whose name stands first in the register in respect of the relevant share) or to such
49


other address as the holder (or, in the case of joint holders, all the joint holders) may notify to the Company for the purpose.

(d)Every cheque or warrant is sent, and payment in any other way is made, at the risk of the person or persons entitled to it and the Company will not be responsible for any sum lost or delayed when it has sent or transmitted the sum in accordance with these articles. Clearance of a cheque or warrant or transmission of funds through a bank or other funds transfer system or by such other electronic means as is permitted by these articles shall be a good discharge to the Company.

(e)Any joint holder or other person jointly entitled to any share may give an effective receipt for any dividend or other sum paid in respect of the share.

(f)Any dividend, distribution or other sum payable in respect of any share may be paid to a person or persons entitled by transmission to that share as if that person or those persons were the holder or joint holders of that share and that person's address (or the address of the first named of two or more persons jointly entitled) noted in the register were the registered address.

113.Dividends not to bear interest

No dividend or other moneys payable by the Company on or in respect of any share shall bear interest as against the Company unless otherwise provided by the rights attached to the share.

114.Calls or debts may be deducted from dividends

The Board may deduct from any dividend or other moneys payable to any person (either alone or jointly with another) on or in respect of a share all such sums as may be due from that person (either alone or jointly with another) to the Company on account of calls or otherwise in relation to shares of the Company.

115.Unclaimed dividends etc.

(a)All unclaimed dividends, interest or other sums payable may be invested or otherwise made use of by the Board for the benefit of the Company until claimed. All dividends and any other such monies unclaimed for a period of 10 years after having been declared shall be forfeited and cease to remain owing by the Company.

(b)If the Company exercises its power of sale in accordance with article 129, all dividends and other such monies payable on that share shall be forfeited and cease to remain owing by the Company.

(c)The payment of any unclaimed dividend, interest or other sum payable by the Company on or in respect of any share into a separate account shall not constitute the Company a trustee in respect of it.

116.Uncashed dividends

If:

(i)a payment for a dividend or other sum payable in respect of a share sent by the Company to the person entitled to it in accordance with these articles is left uncashed or is returned to the Company or a payment has failed (including where the payment has been rejected or refunded) and, after

50



reasonable enquiries, the Company is unable to establish any new address or, with respect to a payment to be made by a funds transfer system, a new account, for that person; or

(ii)such a payment is left uncashed or returned to the Company or fails (including where the payment has been rejected or refunded) on two consecutive occasions,

the Company shall not be obliged to send any dividends or other sums payable in respect of that share to that person until that person notifies the Company of an address or, where the payment is to be made by a funds transfer system, details of the account, to be used for the purpose.

117.Dividends in specie

(a)With the authority of an ordinary resolution of the Company and on the recommendation of the Board, payment of any dividend may be satisfied wholly or in part by the distribution of specific assets and in particular of paid up shares or debentures of any other company.

(b)Where any difficulty arises with the distribution, the Board may settle the difficulty as it thinks fit and, in particular, may issue fractional certificates (or ignore fractions), fix the value for distribution of the specific assets or any part of them, determine that cash payments be made to any members on the basis of the value so fixed in order to secure equality of distribution and vest any of the specific assets in trustees on such trusts for the persons entitled to the dividend as the Board may think fit.

118.Scrip dividends

(a)The Board may, with the authority of an ordinary resolution of the Company, offer any holders of any particular class of shares the right to elect to receive further shares of that class, credited as fully paid, instead of cash in respect of all (or some part) of any dividend specified by the ordinary resolution (a scrip dividend) in accordance with the following provisions of this article.

(b)The ordinary resolution may specify a particular dividend (whether or not already declared) or may specify all or any dividends declared within a specified period, but such period may not end later than five years after the date of the meeting at which the ordinary resolution is passed.

(c)The basis of allotment shall be decided by the Board so that, as nearly as may be considered convenient, the value of the further shares, including any fractional entitlement, is equal to the amount of the cash dividend which would otherwise have been paid (disregarding the amount of any associated tax credit).

(d)For the purposes of paragraph (c) above the value of the further shares shall be:

(i)equal to the final reported per share closing price as quoted for a fully paid share of the relevant class, as shown in the NASDAQ Daily List for the day on which such shares are first quoted "ex" the relevant dividend and the four subsequent dealing days; or

(ii)calculated in such manner as may be determined by or in accordance with the ordinary resolution.

51



(e)The Board shall give notice to the holders of such shares of their rights of election in respect of the scrip dividend and shall specify the procedure to be followed in order to make an election.

(f)The dividend or that part of it in respect of which an election for the scrip dividend is made shall not be paid and instead further shares of the relevant class shall be allotted in accordance with elections duly made and the Board shall capitalise a sum equal to the aggregate nominal amount of the shares to be allotted out of such sums available for the purpose as the Board may consider appropriate.

(g)The further shares so allotted shall rank pari passu in all respects with the fully paid shares of the same class then in issue except as regards participation in the relevant dividend.

(h)The Board may decide that the right to elect for any scrip dividend shall not be made available to members resident in any territory where, in the opinion of the Board, compliance with local laws or regulations would be unduly onerous.

(i)The Board may do all acts and things as it considers necessary or expedient to give effect to the provisions of a scrip dividend election and the issue of any shares in accordance with the provisions of this article, and may make such provisions as it thinks fit for the case of shares becoming distributable in fractions (including provisions under which, in whole or in part, the benefit of fractional entitlements accrues to the Company rather than to the members concerned). To the extent that the entitlement of any holder of shares in respect of any dividend is less than the value of one new share of the relevant class (as determined for the basis of any scrip dividend) the Board may also from time to time establish or vary a procedure for such entitlement to be accrued and aggregated with any similar entitlement for the purposes of any subsequent scrip dividend.

(j)The Board may from time to time establish or vary a procedure for election mandates, under which a holder of shares may, in respect of any future dividends for which a right of election pursuant to this article is offered, elect to receive shares in lieu of such dividend on the terms of such mandate.

(k)The Board shall not make a scrip dividend available unless the Company has sufficient undistributed profits or reserves to give effect to elections which could be made to receive that scrip dividend.

(l)The Board may decide at any time before the further shares are allotted that such shares shall not be allotted and pay the relevant dividend in cash instead. Such decision may be made before or after any election has been made by holders of shares in respect of the relevant dividend.

CAPITALISATION OF RESERVES

119.Capitalisation of reserves

(a)The Board may, with the authority of an ordinary resolution of the Company or, if required by the Companies Law, a special resolution:

(i)subject to these articles, resolve to capitalise any sum standing to the credit of any reserve account of the Company (including share premium account and capital redemption reserve) or any sum standing to the credit of profit and

52



loss account not required for the payment of any preferential dividend (whether or not it is available for distribution); and

(ii)appropriate that sum as capital to the holders of ordinary shares in proportion to the nominal amount of the ordinary share capital held by them respectively and apply that sum on their behalf in paying up in full any shares or debentures of the Company of a nominal amount equal to that sum and allot the shares or debentures credited as fully paid to those members, or as they may direct, in those proportions or in paying up the whole or part of any amounts which are unpaid in respect of any issued shares in the Company held by them respectively, or otherwise deal with such sum as directed by the resolution provided that the share premium account, the capital redemption reserve, any redenomination reserve and any sum not available for distribution in accordance with the Statutes may only be applied in paying up shares to be allotted credited as fully paid up.

(b)Where any difficulty arises in respect of any distribution of any capitalised reserve or other sum, the Board may settle the difficulty as it thinks fit and in particular may make such provisions as it thinks fit in the case of shares or debentures becoming distributable in fractions (including provisions under which, in whole or in part, the benefit of fractional entitlements accrues to the Company rather than the members concerned) or ignore fractions and may fix the value for distribution of any fully paid up shares or debentures and may determine that cash payments be made to any members on the basis of the value so fixed in order to secure equality of distribution, and may vest any shares or debentures in trustees upon such trusts for the persons entitled to share in the distribution as the Board may think fit.

(c)The Board may also authorise any person to sign on behalf of the persons entitled to share in the distribution a contract for the acceptance by those persons of the shares or debentures to be allotted to them credited as fully paid under a capitalisation and any such contract shall be binding on all those persons.

120.Capitalisation of reserves – employees' share schemes

(a)This article (which is without prejudice to the generality of the provisions of article 119) applies where, pursuant to an employees' share scheme:

(i)a person is granted a right to acquire shares in the Company for no payment or at a price less than their nominal value; or

(ii)the terms on which any person is entitled to acquire shares in the Company are adjusted so that the price payable to acquire them is less than their nominal value,

and the relevant shares are to be subscribed.

(b)In any such case the Board:

(i)may, without requiring any further authority of the Company in general meeting, at any time transfer to a reserve account a sum (the reserve amount) which is equal to the amount required to pay up the nominal value of the shares in full, after taking into account the amount (if any) payable by the person from the profits or reserves of the Company which are available

53



for distribution and not required for the payment of any preferential dividend; and

(ii)(subject to paragraph (d) below) will not apply the reserve amount for any purpose other than paying up the nominal value on the allotment of the relevant shares.

(c)Whenever the Company allots shares to a person pursuant to a right described in article 120(a), the Board will (subject to the Statutes) appropriate to capital the amount of the reserve amount necessary to pay up the nominal value of those shares in full, after taking into account the amount (if any) payable by the person, apply that amount in paying up the nominal value of those shares in full and allot those shares credited as fully paid to the person entitled to them.

(d)If any person ceases to be entitled to acquire shares as described in article 120(a), the restrictions on the reserve amount will cease to apply in relation to the part of that amount (if any) applicable to those shares.

RECORD DATES

121.Fixing of record dates

(a)Notwithstanding any other of these articles, but without prejudice to any rights attached to any shares and subject always to the Companies Law, the Company or the Board may fix any date as the record date by reference to which a dividend will be declared or paid or a distribution, allotment or issue made, and that date may be before, on or after the date on which the dividend, distribution, allotment or issue is declared, paid or made.

(b)In the absence of a record date being fixed, entitlement to any dividend, distribution, allotment or issue shall be determined by reference to the date on which the dividend is declared or the distribution, allotment or issue is made.

ACCOUNTS

122.Accounting records

(b)Subject to the provisions of the Companies Law, the Company may keep an overseas branch register in any country, territory or place (other than in the United Kingdom).

54



The Board may (subject to the Companies Law and the requirement that no overseas branch register shall be kept in the United Kingdom) make and vary such regulations as it may think fit in relation to the keeping of any such overseas branch register, including any regulations regarding the transfer of shares from such overseas branch register to the register, the transfer of shares from the register to such overseas branch register or the inspection of the overseas branch register. For so long as the shares of the Company are listed on NASDAQ, the Company shall maintain a US branch register.

(c)For so long as the shares of the Company are listed on NASDAQ, all members shall have their shares registered on the US branch register unless the Board otherwise resolves. The Board may take such action as it deems necessary to transfer any shares from the principal register or any other register to the US branch register. Each director (acting alone) will be deemed to have been appointed as the agent of any holder with shares registered on any register other than the US branch register with full power to execute, complete and deliver, in the name of and on behalf of the holder, any transfer form or other documents necessary to transfer such shares from the relevant register to the US branch register. Such appointment is:

(i)made with effect from the later of (i) the holder becoming the holder of such shares and (ii) any share in the Company being listed on NASDAQ; and

(ii)irrevocable for a period of one year thereafter.

UNTRACED MEMBERS

129.Sale of shares of untraced members

(a)The Company may sell, in such manner as the Board may decide and at the best price it considers to be reasonably obtainable at that time, any share of a member, or any share to which a person is entitled by transmission if:

(c)To give effect to any sale, the Board may authorise some person to transfer the share to, or as directed by, the purchaser, who shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money; nor shall the title of the new holder to the share be affected by any irregularity in, or invalidity of, the proceedings relating to the sale.

130.Application of proceeds of sale

(a)The net proceeds of any sale made under article 129 will be forfeited and will belong to the Company. The Company will not be liable in any respect to the former member or members or other person who may or would have been entitled to the share or shares by law for the proceeds of sale, and the Company may use the proceeds of sale for any purpose as the Board may decide.

(e)References in this article to the destruction of any document include references to its disposal in any manner.

(a)Subject to the provisions of the Companies Law, but without prejudice to any indemnity to which the person concerned may otherwise be entitled, every director or other officer of the Company shall be indemnified out of the assets of the Company against any liability incurred by him for negligence, default, breach of duty, breach of trust or otherwise in relation to the affairs of the Company, provided that this article shall be deemed not to provide for, or entitle any such person to, indemnification to the extent that it would cause this article, or any element of it, to be treated as void under the Companies Law or otherwise unlawful under the Companies Law.

59



(b)Without prejudice to the foregoing, the board may exercise all the powers of the Company to purchase and maintain insurance for or for the benefit of any person who is or was:

(i)a director, officer, employee or auditor of the Company or any body which is or was the holding company or subsidiary undertaking of the Company, or in which the Company or such holding company or subsidiary undertaking has or had any interest (whether direct or indirect) or with which the Company or such holding company or subsidiary undertaking is or was in any way allied or associated; or
