In accordance with the Transparency Directive’s transitional provision 6 (the Directive) we would like to notify the market of the following:

The Company’s capital consists of 1,700,919,433 ordinary shares with voting rights.  The Company does not hold any shares in Treasury at the date of this disclosure.

Therefore, the total number of voting rights in the Company is 1,700,919,433.

The above figure can be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which to determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in the Company under the FSA’s Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
