LISTING AND DEALINGS

The listing of the Shares on the Stock Exchange is expected to be withdrawn with effect from the close of business on Wednesday, 6 November 2002 and the dealings in the Newco Shares on the Stock Exchange will commence with effect from 9:30 a.m. on Thursday, 7 November 2002.

SHARE CERTIFICATES

Under the Scheme, each certificate for the Scheme Shares validly subsisting as at the Record Time will, subject to Newco having despatched the certificates for the Newco Shares falling to be allotted and issued under the Scheme to the persons entitled thereto, cease to be valid for any purpose as a certificate for the Scheme Shares. Certificates representing the appropriate number of the Newco Shares, in registered form, will be issued at the expense of Newco to the holders of the Scheme Shares whose names appear on the register of members of the Company as at the Record Time.

It is expected that certificates of the Newco Shares will be posted to the holders of the Scheme Shares entitled thereto at their own risk on or about Tuesday, 5 November 2002. Certificates for the Newco Shares will be posted to them at their respective registered addresses (or in the case of joint holders, at the address of that joint holder whose name stands first on the register of members of the Company in respect of joint holding).

The existing certificates for the Shares are golden green in colour. In order to distinguish between the existing and new certificates, certificates for the Newco Shares will be red in colour.

The Shareholders are recommended to consult their professional advisers if they are in any doubt as to the above procedures.
