these authorisations to expire at the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company (or, if earlier, on 30 September 2017) save that the Company may before such expiry make any offer or agreement which would or might require shares to be allotted, or rights to be granted, after such expiry and the directors may allot shares, or grant rights to subscribe for or to convert any security into shares, in pursuance of any such offer or agreement as if the authority conferred hereby had not expired.

a) allot equity securities (as defined in section 560 of the Act) of the Company for cash pursuant to the authorisation conferred by that resolution; and
b) sell ordinary shares (as defined in section 560(1) of the Act) held by the Company as treasury shares for cash,
as if section 561 of the Act did not apply to any such allotment or sale, provided that this power shall be limited to the allotment of equity securities for cash and the sale of treasury shares:
and this power shall expire at the conclusion of the next annual general meeting (or if earlier, on 30 September 2017), save that the Company may before the expiry of such power make an offer or agreement which would or might require equity securities to be allotted, or treasury shares to be sold, after such expiry and the directors may allot equity securities or sell treasury shares in pursuance of such offer or agreement as if the power conferred hereby had not expired.
