in each case during the period beginning on the date of the passing of this resolution and expiring at the conclusion of the next Annual General Meeting of the Company, or at the close of business on 26 May 2017, whichever is earlier.

For the purpose of this resolution "political donation", "political party", "political organisation", "independent election candidate" and "political expenditure" are to be construed in accordance with sections 363, 364 and 365 of the Act.

  • $(i)$ to ordinary Shareholders in proportion (as nearly as may be practicable) to their existing holdings; and
  • $(ii)$ to holders of other equity securities as required by the rights of those securities or, subject to such rights, as the Directors otherwise consider necessary,

such authorities to expire at the conclusion of the Company's next Annual General Meeting after this resolution is passed or, if earlier, at the close of business on 26 May 2017, but, in each case, so that the Company may make offers or agreements before the authority expires which would or might require shares to be allotted, or Rights to be granted, after the authority expires, and so that the Directors may allot shares or grant Rights in pursuance of any such offer or agreement notwithstanding that the authority conferred by this resolution has expired.
