2

A shareholder of the Company who has not yet lodged the original proxy form with the Company's registrar is requested to lodge the revised proxy form if he or she wishes to appoint proxies to attend the EGM on his or her behalf. In this case, the original proxy form should not be lodged with the Company's registrar.

A shareholder who has already lodged the original proxy form with the Company's registrar should note that:

1. If no revised proxy form is lodged with the Company's registrar, the original proxy form will be treated as a valid proxy form lodged by him or her if correctly completed. The proxy so appointed by the shareholder will be entitled to vote at his or her discretion or to abstain on any resolution properly put to the EGM other than those referred to in the Original Notice and the original proxy form, including the newly-added resolutions as set out in this supplemental notice.
2. If the revised proxy form is lodged with the Company's registrar before the Closing Time, the revised proxy form will revoke and supersede the original proxy form previously lodged by the shareholder. The revised proxy form will be treated as a valid proxy form lodged by the shareholder if correctly completed.
3. If the revised proxy form is lodged with the Company's registrar after the Closing Time, the revised proxy form will be invalid. However, it will revoke the original proxy form previously lodged by the shareholder, and any vote that may be cast by the purported proxy (whether appointed under the original proxy form or the revised proxy form) will not be counted in any poll which may be taken on a proposed resolution.

Accordingly, shareholders of the Company are advised not to lodge the revised proxy form after the Closing Time. If such shareholders of the Company wish to vote at the EGM, they will have to attend in person and vote at the EGM themselves.
