Additional Information for U.S. Investors

The Tender Offer qualifies as a “Tier II” offer in accordance with Rule 14d-1(d) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and, as a result, is exempt from certain provisions of otherwise applicable U.S. statutes and rules relating to tender offers. U.S. and English law and practice relating to tender offers are different in certain material respects. The Company intends to rely on the Tier II exemption from Rule 14e-1(c) on prompt payment where the Company will follow English law and practice.

This communication is provided for informational purposes only and is neither an offer to purchase nor a solicitation of an offer to sell any securities of the Company pursuant to the Tender Offer or otherwise. The Tender Offer will only be made pursuant to the Circular and other related materials filed as part of the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO, in each case as may be amended or supplemented from time to time. The Company’s security holders are advised to carefully read these documents, and any amendments to these documents, in their entirety before making any decision with respect to the Tender Offer, because these documents will contain important information. The Company’s security holders may obtain copies of these documents and other documents filed with the SEC for free at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. In addition, the Company will provide copies of such documents free of charge to its security holders.

In accordance with normal market practice in the UK and pursuant to Rule 14e-5(b)(12) under the Exchange Act, the Company or its nominees or brokers or Jefferies or its affiliates may from time to time make certain purchases of, or arrangements to purchase Ordinary Shares outside the United States, otherwise than pursuant to the Tender Offer, before or during the period in which the Tender Offer remains open for acceptance, such as in open market purchases at prevailing prices or privately negotiated purchases at negotiated prices. Such purchases, or arrangements to purchase will comply with all applicable rules in the UK, including the Listing Rules of the FCA and the Admission and Disclosure Standards of the London Stock Exchange. Any information about such purchases will be disclosed as required in the UK and the US and, if required, will be reported via a Regulatory Information Service and will be available to all investors (including US investors) on the London Stock Exchange website at www.londonstockexchange.com.

The receipt of cash pursuant to the Tender Offer by a Shareholder who is a US person may be a taxable transaction for US federal income tax purposes. The Circular sets out a guide to certain US tax consequences of the Tender Offer for Shareholders under current US law. However, each such Shareholder should consult and seek individual advice from an appropriate professional adviser.

Neither the United States Securities and Exchange Commission nor any US state securities commission has approved or disapproved of this transaction or passed upon the merits of fairness of such transaction or passed upon the adequacy of the information contained in this announcement. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offence.
