Terms: |
In connection with the offer of GDRs (the "Offer"), the Stabilising Manager, or any of its agents, may (but will be under no obligation to), to the extent permitted by applicable law, over-allot GDRs or effect other transactions with a view to supporting the market price of the GDRs at a level higher than that which might otherwise prevail in the open market. However, there is no assurance that the Stabilising Manager (or persons acting on its behalf) will undertake stabilisation action and there will be no obligation on the Stabilising Manager or any of its agents to effect stabilising transactions. In particular, the Stabilising Manager's ability to undertake stabilisation action depends on it being able to agree deferred settlement arrangements with one or more investors in order to allow it to over-allot GDRs. Any stabilisation action may begin on the date of adequate public disclosure of the final price of the GDRs and, if begun, may be ended at any time but must end no later than 30 calendar days thereafter (the "Stabilisation Period"). Any stabilisation action must be undertaken in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. Such stabilisation, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time without prior notice. Save as required by law or regulation, the Stabilising Manager does not intend to disclose the extent of any over-allotments made and/or stabilisation transactions concluded in relation to the Offer. In connection with the Offer, the Stabilising Manager may, for stabilisation purposes and subject to the deferred settlement arrangements described above, over-allot up to 2,380,000 GDRs. For the purposes of allowing it to cover short positions resulting from any such over-allotments and/or from sales of GDRs effected by it during the Stabilisation Period, the Stabilising Manager will enter into over-allotment arrangements pursuant to which the Stabilising Manager may purchase or procure purchasers for up to 2,380,000 additional GDRs (the "Over-allotment GDRs") at the Offer price. The over-allotment arrangements will be exercisable in whole or in part, upon notice by the Stabilising Manager, at any time on or before the 30th calendar day after the date of announcement of the Offer Price on the London Stock Exchange. Any Over-allotment GDRs made available pursuant to the over-allotment arrangements, including for all dividends and other distributions declared, made or paid on the GDRs, will be purchased on the same terms and conditions as the GDRs being issued or sold in the Offer and will form a single class for all purposes with the other GDRs. |
|
Number of GDRs covered by Over-allotment Option: |
2,380,000 GDRs |
|
Duration: |
The Over-allotment Option may be executed at any time during the Stabilisation Period. |
