(g)

it is not purchasing the Sale Shares as a result of any advertisement, article, notice or other communication regarding the securities of the Company published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio or presented at any seminar or any general advertisement;

Compliance with Regulation S

(h)

the Purchaser:

(i)

is domiciled and has its principal place of business outside the United States;

(ii)

is not a “U.S. Person” as defined under Rule 902 of Regulation S and is not acquiring the Sale Shares for the account or benefit of any U.S. Person;

(iii)

at the time of offering to the Vendor to purchase the Sale Shares and at the time of the Purchaser’s execution of this Agreement, the Purchaser was located outside the United States; and

(iv)

at the time of the Completion, the Purchaser or persons acting on the Purchaser’s behalf in connection therewith, will be located outside the United States;

(i)

it acknowledges that:

(i)

the Sale Shares sold to it pursuant to this Agreement have not been and will not be registered under the 1933 Act or the “blue sky” or securities laws of any state of the United States;

(ii)

in selling the Sale Shares to the Purchaser, the Vendor is relying upon the exemption from registration provided by Regulation S; and

(iii)

it is a condition to the availability of the Regulation S safe harbour that the Sale Shares not be offered or sold in the United States or to a U.S. Person until the expiration of a period of six months after the Completion Date (the “Distribution Compliance Period”);

(j)

it acknowledges that until the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period:

(i)

it and its agents or representatives have not and will not solicit offers to buy, offer for sale or sell any of the Sale Shares or any beneficial interest therein in the United States or to or for the account of a U.S. Person;

(ii)

notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, the Sale Shares may be offered and sold by the holder thereof only if such offer and sale is made:

(A)

within the United States or to or for the account of a U.S. Person, pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act; or

(B)

outside the United States and to a person other than a U.S. Person.

The foregoing restrictions are binding upon subsequent transferees of the Sale Shares, except for transferees pursuant to an effective registration statement. The Purchaser agrees that after the Distribution Compliance Period, the Sale Shares may be offered or sold within the United States or to or for the account of a U.S. Person only in accordance with this Agreement and pursuant to applicable securities laws;

(k)

it is not a “distributor” (as defined in Regulation S) or a “dealer” (as defined in the 1933 Act);

(l)

it understands that the Sale Shares constitute “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Vendor in a transaction pursuant to Regulation S. Under applicable laws and regulations, the Sale Shares may be resold without registration under the 1933 Act only in certain limited circumstances. In this connection, the Purchaser represents that it understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the 1933 Act. The Purchaser understands that under Rule 144, except as otherwise provided by section (k) of that Rule, the limitations include, among other things:

(i)

the availability of certain current public information about the Company;

(ii)

the resale occurring not less than six months after the Purchaser has purchased and paid for the Sale Shares to be sold; and

limitations on the amount of Sale Shares to be sold and the manner of sale.

The Purchaser acknowledges that in the event all of the requirements of Rule 144 are not met, registration under the Act or compliance with another exemption from registration will be required for any disposition of the Sale Shares. The Purchaser understands that although Rule 144 is not exclusive, the SEC has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell restricted Sale Shares received in a private offering other than in a registered offering or pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales and that such persons and the brokers who participate in the transactions do so at their own risk;

(m)

it hereby acknowledges that during the Distribution Compliance Period, no deposit of the Sale Shares sold pursuant to this Agreement will be accepted into its American Depositary Shares program, and the Sale Shares may not be offered or sold in the United States or to U.S. Persons unless the Sale Shares are registered under the 1933 Act, or an exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act is available. The Purchaser further acknowledges that, for so long as the Sale Shares are held by “affiliates” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(1) under the 1933 Act or are “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the 1933 Act, the Sale Shares will not be eligible for deposit under any unrestricted depositary receipt facility;

(n)

it has not engaged or cause any third party to engage in any directed selling efforts (as such term is defined in Regulation S) in the United States with respect to the Sale Shares;

(o)

it has not engaged in hedging transactions (within the meaning of Rule 903(b)(3)(iii)(B)(4) of Regulation S) with regard to the Sale Shares unless in compliance with the 1933 Act;

No public sale or distribution

(p)

it is acquiring the Sale Shares for its own account and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted under the 1933 Act. The Purchaser does not presently have any agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute any of the Sale Shares. The Purchaser is not a broker-dealer registered with the SEC under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”) or an entity engaged in a business that would require it to be so registered as a broker-dealer;

Reliance on exemptions

(q)

it understands that the Sale Shares are being offered and sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of United States federal and state securities laws and that the Vendor is relying upon the truth and accuracy of, and its compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of it set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of it to acquire the Sale Shares;

Transfer or resale

(r)

it understands that:

(i)

the Sale Shares have not been registered under the 1933 Act or any state securities laws, and may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred within the United States or to or for the account or benefit of a U.S. Person unless subsequently registered or otherwise exempted from the registration requirement thereunder;

(ii)

any sale of the Sale Shares made in reliance on Rule 144 may be made only in accordance with the terms of Rule 144 and further, if Rule 144 is not applicable, any resale of the Sale Shares under circumstances in which the seller (or the person through whom the sale is made) may be deemed to be an underwriter (as that term is defined in the 1933 Act) may require compliance with some other exemption under the 1933 Act or the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder; and

(iii)

neither the Vendor nor any other person is under any obligation to register the Sale Shares under the 1933 Act or any state securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder;

Legends

(s)

the Purchaser understands that the certificates or other instruments representing the Sale Shares, until such time as the resale of the Sale Shares have been registered under the 1933 Act, shall bear any legend as required by the “blue sky” laws of any state and a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of such stock certificates):

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE ACT, AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD WITHIN THE UNITED STATES OR TO, OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OR BENEFIT OF, U.S. PERSONS, EXCEPT AS SET FORTH BELOW.

IN CONNECTION WITH ANY TRANSFER OF THESE SHARES PURSUANT TO CLAUSES (2)(C), (D), (E) OR (F) ABOVE, THE HOLDER MUST, PRIOR TO SUCH TRANSFER, FURNISH TO THE COMPANY SUCH CERTIFICATIONS, LEGAL OPINIONS, OR OTHER INFORMATION AS THE COMPANY MAY REASONABLY REQUIRE TO CONFIRM THAT SUCH TRANSFER IS BEING MADE PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE ACT. AS USED HEREIN, THE TERMS ‘OFFSHORE TRANSACTION’, ‘UNITED STATES’, AND ‘U.S. PERSON’ HAVE THE MEANING GIVEN TO THEM BY REGULATION S UNDER THE ACT.”;

Prohibited transactions

(t)

(i)

the transactions contemplated hereby being publicly announced; and

(ii)

the Completion Date,

(the above collectively referred to as the “Purchaser Warranties”); and

Purchaser Nominee

that each of the warranties set out in Clause 6.2(a) to (t) in respect of itself are also given by the Purchaser in respect of the Purchaser Nominee (as though references to the Purchaser were replaced with references to the Purchaser Nominee and that references to this Agreement with replaced with references to this Agreement and any other document entered into in connection with this Agreement by the Purchaser Nominee).

6.3.

Each of (a) the Vendor Warranties given by the Vendor, and (b) the Purchaser Warranties given by the Purchaser, shall be separate and independent and, save as expressly provided to the contrary in this Agreement, shall not be limited by reference to or inference from any other warranty or anything in this Agreement.

6.4.

In the event of it being found prior to Completion that:

(a)

any of the Vendor Warranties are untrue, misleading or incorrect or have not been fully carried out in any respect, or in the event of any matter or thing arising or becoming known or being notified to the Purchaser which is inconsistent with Vendor Warranties, the Purchaser shall not be bound to complete the purchase of the Sale Shares and the Purchaser may by notice rescind its obligations under this Agreement without liability on its part; or

(b)

any of the Purchaser Warranties are untrue, misleading or incorrect or have not been fully carried out in any respect, or in the event of any matter or thing arising or becoming known or being notified to the Vendor which is inconsistent with Purchaser Warranties, the Vendor shall not be bound to complete the sale of the Sale Shares and the Vendor may by notice rescind its obligations under this Agreement without liability on its part.

6.5.

The right conferred upon the Parties in Clause 6.4 is in addition to and without prejudice to any other rights of the Parties (including any rights to claim damages or compensation from the other Party by reason of any such breach or non-fulfilment) and failure to exercise it shall not constitute a waiver of any such rights.

6.6.
