UNDERWRITING AGREEMENT
The Rights Issue and the Underwriting Agreement became unconditional after 4 : 00 p.m. on Friday, 7 August 2020. As a result of the over-subscription of the Rights Issue by 42,787,550 Rights Shares, pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the obligations of the Underwriter in respect of the Underwritten Shares have been fully discharged and the Underwriter is not required to take up any Underwritten Shares.
