Registered holders are those shareholders whose shares are registered directly in their names with our transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company, N.A.

We have sent our shareholders of record who are “beneficial owners” at the close of business on May 2, 2024 a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (“Notice and Access Card”). Beneficial owners are those shareholders whose shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other holder of record; such shareholders are also sometimes referred to as “street name” holders. The Notice and Access Card contains instructions on how to access our Proxy Statement and vote. If you would like to receive a printed copy of our proxy materials from us instead of downloading a printable version from the Internet, please follow the instructions for requesting such materials included in the Notice and Access Card, as well as in the attached Proxy Statement.

Please promptly vote your shares electronically over the Internet, or, if you receive a paper copy of the proxy card by mail, by returning your signed proxy card in the envelope provided.

PROXY STATEMENT
FOR THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
TO BE HELD ON JUNE 28, 2024

This proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) is being furnished by and on behalf of the board of directors (the “Board” or the “Board of Directors”) of IHS Holding Limited (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), in connection with our Annual General Meeting of Shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “AGM”).

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE AGM AND VOTING

When and where will the AGM be held?

The AGM will be held at 1:00 pm, London time, on June 28, 2024 in person at the offices of Latham & Watkins LLP located at 99 Bishopsgate, London, EC2M 3XF, United Kingdom.

What is the purpose of the AGM?

The purpose of the AGM is to vote on the following items described in this Proxy Statement:

•

Proposal No. 1: To elect Frank Dangeard and Phuthuma Nhleko to serve as Class I Directors until the annual general meeting for the year ended December 31, 2027 (the “2027 AGM”) or, if the Restated Articles (as defined below) are adopted at this AGM, until the annual general meeting for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the “2025 AGM”), and in either case, or until their earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal.

•

Proposal No. 2: Subject to and effective upon the adoption of the Restated Articles (as defined below) at the AGM, the election of Mallam Bashir Ahmad El-Rufai and Nicholas Land as Class II Directors until the 2025 AGM, or until their earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal.

•

Proposal No. 3: To resolve as a special resolution that the existing Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company (the “Existing Articles”) be replaced in their entirety with the Second Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, in the form tabled at the AGM (the “Restated Articles”).

Are there any matters to be voted on at the AGM that are not included in this Proxy Statement?

At the date this Proxy Statement went to press, we did not know of any matters to be properly presented at the AGM other than those referred to in this Proxy Statement. If other matters are properly presented at the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof for consideration, and you are a shareholder of record and have submitted a proxy card, the persons named in your proxy card will have the discretion to vote on those matters for you.

Why did I receive a notice in the mail regarding the Internet availability of proxy materials instead of a paper copy of proxy materials?

We have elected to furnish proxy materials, including this Proxy Statement, to our shareholders who are beneficial owners by providing access to such documents on the Internet instead of mailing printed copies. Beneficial owners will not receive paper copies of the proxy materials unless they request them. Instead, on or about May 21, 2024, we mailed to our beneficial owners the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials and Proxy Card (the “Notice and Access Card”), which provides instructions on how to access and review on the Internet all of the proxy materials. The Notice and Access Card also instructs you as to how to authorize via the Internet your proxy to vote your shares according to your voting instructions. If you would like to receive a paper or email copy of our proxy materials, you should follow the instructions for requesting such materials described in the Notice and Access Card.

What does it mean if I receive more than one Notice and Access Card or more than one set of proxy materials?

It means that your ordinary shares, par value $0.30 per share (“Ordinary Shares”) are held in more than one account at the transfer agent and/or with banks or brokers. Please vote all of your shares. To ensure that all of your shares are voted, for each Notice and Access Card or set of proxy materials, please submit your proxy via the Internet, or, if you received printed copies of the proxy materials, by signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the enclosed envelope. See “How do I vote my shares and what are the voting deadlines?” below for more information, including how to vote your shares at the AGM.

Who is entitled to vote at the AGM?

Shareholders of record holding Ordinary Shares as of the close of business on May 2, 2024 (the “Record Date”) are entitled to receive notice of, attend, and vote at the AGM and any postponement or adjournment thereof.

At the close of business on the Record Date, there were 333,073,859 of our Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding and entitled to vote. On the basis that voting at the AGM will be conducted by way of a poll, other than in respect of certain limitations and exceptions as detailed in the Existing Articles, each Ordinary Share issued and outstanding as of the close of business on the Record Date is entitled to one (1) vote on each resolution at the AGM, subject to any limitations applicable to specific holders as set forth in the Existing Articles.

You will need to obtain your own Internet access if you choose to vote over the Internet.

Can I vote my shares by filling out and returning the Notice and Access Card?

No. The Notice and Access Card identifies the items to be voted on at the AGM, but you cannot vote by marking the Notice and Access Card and returning it. If you are a beneficial owner and would like a paper proxy card, you should follow the instructions in the Notice and Access Card. The paper proxy card you receive will also provide instructions as to how to authorize via the Internet your proxy to vote your shares according to your voting instructions. Alternatively, you can mark the paper proxy card with how you would like your shares voted, sign the proxy card and return it in the envelope provided. See “How do I vote my shares and what are the voting deadlines?” below for more information, including how to vote your shares at the AGM.

What is the difference between being a “registered holder” and a “beneficial owner” (holding shares in “street name”)?

A registered holder (also called a “record holder”) holds shares in his or her name. Beneficial owners holding in “street name” means that shares are held in the name of a bank, broker or other nominee on the holder’s behalf.

What do I do if my shares are held in “street name”?

If your shares are held in a brokerage account or by a bank or other holder of record, you are considered the “beneficial owner” of shares held in “street name.” The Notice and Access Card or the proxy materials, if you have elected to receive a hard copy, have been forwarded to you by your broker, bank or other nominee who is considered, with respect to those shares, the shareholder of record. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or other holder of record on how to vote your shares by following their instructions for voting. Please refer to information from your bank, broker or other nominee on how to submit your voting instructions.

How many shareholders must be present to hold the AGM?

A quorum must be present at the AGM in order for any business to be transacted. One or more shareholders holding at least one-third of the voting share capital of the Company present in person, or by proxy, and entitled to vote at the AGM shall form a quorum. If you sign and return your paper proxy card or authorize a proxy to vote electronically, your shares will be counted to determine whether we have a quorum even if you abstain or fail to vote as indicated in the proxy materials.

What is a “vote withheld” and an abstention and how will “votes withheld” and abstentions be treated?

A “vote withheld” in the case of Proposals No. 1 and 2, and an “abstention”, in the case of Proposal No. 3, represents a shareholder’s affirmative choice to decline to vote on a proposal. Votes withheld and abstentions are counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum. Votes withheld and abstentions have no effect on the proposals.

What are “broker non-votes” and do they count for determining a quorum?

A “broker non-vote” occurs when shares held by a broker in “street name” for a beneficial owner are not voted with respect to a proposal because (1) the broker has not received voting instructions from the shareholder who beneficially owns the shares and (2) the broker lacks the authority to vote the shares at their discretion. Under current stock exchange interpretations that govern broker non-votes, each of Proposal No. 1, Proposal No. 2 and Proposal No. 3 are considered non-routine matters, and a broker will lack the authority to vote uninstructed shares at their discretion on such proposals. Broker non-votes have no effect on the proposals and they will not be considered present for the purpose of determining whether there is a quorum for the AGM.

What if a quorum is not present at the AGM?

Under our Existing Articles, if a quorum of shareholders is not present in person or by proxy within 30 minutes of the commencement of the AGM, the members of the Board of Directors present at the AGM may adjourn the AGM to a time and place as they may determine. If the directors do not exercise the authority to specify a date or time for the adjourned meeting, the adjourned meeting shall take place one (1) week after, and at the same time and place as the meeting from which the adjournment took place.

How do I vote my shares and what are the voting deadlines?

If you are a shareholder of record, there are three ways to vote:

•

by Internet — You can vote over the Internet at www.proxyvote.com by following the instructions on the Notice and Access Card or proxy card;

•

by Mail — You can vote by mail by signing, dating and mailing the proxy card to Broadridge Investor Communications Services (“Broadridge”) at the address specified on the proxy card; or

•

at the AGM — You can vote your shares during the AGM in person.

Internet voting facilities for shareholders of record will be available 24 hours a day and will close at 11:59 pm, London time, on June 27, 2024. A proxy card sent by mail must be received prior to the time of the AGM. Even if you plan to attend the AGM, we encourage you to vote your shares by proxy. You may still vote your shares at the AGM even if you have previously voted by the methods described above or submitted your proxy.

If your shares are held in the name of a bank, broker or other holder of record, you will receive instructions on how to vote from the bank, broker or holder of record. You must follow the instructions of such bank, broker or holder of record in order for your shares to be voted.

How can I attend and vote at the AGM?

Shareholders of record holding Ordinary Shares as of the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to participate in the AGM by attending in person at the offices of Latham & Watkins LLP located at 99 Bishopsgate, London, EC2M 3XF, United Kingdom.

If you (or, if you are a corporation or other non-natural person, your duly authorized representative) plan to attend the AGM in person, please go to www.proxyvote.com, enter the control number found on your proxy card to access the voting page, then click “Attend the Meeting” link at the top of the page to have your name (or, if you are a corporation or other non-natural person, the name of your duly authorized representative) placed on the attendance list. Please note that the registration deadline is 5:00 pm, London time, on June 25, 2024. You should be prepared to provide a valid e-mail address, your name and control number.

If you hold your shares in “street name” and you plan to attend the AGM in person and vote your shares directly, you will need to notify your broker, bank or other holder of record of your intention to attend the AGM in person and to vote your shares directly, and they will send to you a legal proxy which gives you the authority to vote your shares directly at the AGM. In order to be admitted into the AGM and vote your shares directly, please go to http://www.proxyvote.com, enter the control number found on your legal proxy to access the voting page, then click “Attend the Meeting” link at the top of the page to have your name (or, if you are a corporation or other non-natural person, the name of your duly authorized representative) placed on the attendance list. Please note that the registration deadline is 5:00 pm, London time, on June 25, 2024. You should be prepared to provide a valid e-mail address, your name and control number listed on your legal proxy. Upon arriving at the AGM, you must present your legal proxy, along with a government-issued photo identification.

If you plan to attend the AGM in person and vote your shares directly but do not have a control number, you should register by emailing grouplegal@ihstowers.com and provide a valid e-mail address, your name and proof of ownership of ordinary shares as of the close of business on May 2, 2024, no later than 5:00 pm, London time, on June 25, 2024.

In order to be admitted into the AGM, individual shareholders must present government-issued photo identification (such as a driver’s license). In the case of a corporation, a resolution of the corporation’s directors or other governing body authorizing the attendance of the corporation’s representative should be presented, together with the representative’s government-issued photo identification. This is required so that it can be determined by reference to the register of members of the Company that you (or, if you are a corporation or other non-natural person, your duly authorized representative) are entitled to attend and vote at the AGM.

Check-in and registration for all in-person attendees on the day of the AGM will begin at 12:00 pm, London time. Please allow ample time for check-in.

How does the Board recommend that I vote?

The Board recommends that you vote:

•

FOR the election of Frank Dangeard and Phuthuma Nhleko to serve as Class I Directors until the 2027 AGM or, if the Restated Articles are adopted at this AGM, until the 2025 AGM, and in either case, until their earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal;

•

FOR the election of Mallam Bashir Ahmad El-Rufai and Nicholas Land as Class II Directors until the 2025 AGM, or until their earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal, subject to and effective upon the adoption of the Restated Articles at the AGM.

•

FOR the special resolution that the Existing Articles be replaced in their entirety with the Restated Articles in the form tabled at the AGM.

How many votes are required to approve each proposal?

The first two resolutions to be put to the vote at the AGM to elect directors will be approved by a plurality of votes cast, represented in person or by proxy at the AGM.

The third resolution to be put to the vote at the AGM to approve the amendment and restatement of the Company’s Existing Articles will be adopted by a special resolution (meaning a majority of not less than two-thirds of the votes cast, by or on behalf of, the shareholders of Ordinary Shares, represented in person or by proxy at the AGM).

What if I do not specify how my shares are to be voted?

If you submit a proxy but do not indicate any voting instructions, the persons named as proxies will vote in accordance with the recommendations of the Board. The Board’s recommendations are set forth above, as well as with the description of each proposal in this Proxy Statement.

Can I revoke or change my vote after I submit my proxy?

Yes. Whether you have voted by Internet, or mail, if you are a shareholder of record, you may change your vote and revoke your proxy by:

•

sending a written statement to that effect via electronic mail to IHSHolding@broadridge.com, provided such statement is received no later than June 27, 2024;

•

voting again by Internet at a later time before the closing of those voting facilities at the time for holding the AGM;

•

submitting a properly signed proxy card per the instructions detailed above with a later date that is received no later than the time of the AGM; or

•

attending the AGM in accordance with the procedures and requirements set forth herein, revoking your proxy and voting again.

If you hold shares in street name, you may submit new voting instructions by contacting your bank, broker or other nominee. You may also change your vote or revoke your proxy in person at the AGM if you obtain a signed legal proxy from the record holder (broker, bank or other nominee) giving you the right to vote the shares directly.

Your most recent proxy card or Internet proxy is the one that is counted. Your attendance at the AGM by itself will not revoke your proxy unless you give written notice of revocation to the Company before your proxy is voted or you vote in person at the AGM.

Who will count the votes?

Representatives of Broadridge will tabulate the votes, and representatives of Broadridge will act as inspectors of election.

Where can I find the voting results of the AGM?

The voting results will be published following the AGM in a Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K that will be furnished to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Who will pay for the cost of proxy solicitations for the AGM?

We will pay the cost of soliciting proxies. Proxies may be solicited on our behalf by directors, officers or employees (for no additional compensation) in person or by electronic transmission and facsimile transmission. Brokers and other nominees will be requested to solicit proxies or authorizations from beneficial owners and will be reimbursed for their reasonable expenses.

Will I be able to ask questions at the AGM?

As part of the AGM, we will hold a live Q&A session, during which we intend to answer appropriate questions submitted during the meeting and that relate solely to the matters to be voted on. We intend to reserve up to ten minutes before the closing of the polls to address questions submitted.

PROPOSAL NO. 1: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

It is proposed that Frank Dangeard and Phuthuma Nhleko be elected to serve as Class I Directors until the 2027 AGM or, if the Restated Articles are adopted at this AGM, until the 2025 AGM, and in either case, until their earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal.

We currently have nine (9) directors on our Board of Directors. Our current Class I Directors are Frank Dangeard and Phuthuma Nhleko, who have served on our Board since September 2020 and October 2021, respectively. The Board has nominated Frank Dangeard and Phuthuma Nhleko for election as Class I Directors at the AGM.

The proposal regarding the election of directors requires the approval of a plurality of the votes cast. This means that the two nominees receiving the highest number of affirmative “FOR” votes will be elected as Class I Directors. Votes withheld and broker non-votes are not considered to be votes cast and, accordingly, will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on this proposal.

As set forth in our Existing Articles, the Board is currently divided into three classes, Class I, Class II and Class III, with staggered, three-year terms. If the Restated Articles are not adopted at the AGM, at each future annual general meeting and in accordance with the Existing Articles, the successors to directors whose terms then expire will be elected to serve from the time of election and qualification until the third annual general meeting following election. The current class structure is as follows: Class I, whose current term will expire at the AGM, and, if elected at the AGM, whose subsequent term will expire at the 2027 AGM; Class II, whose term will expire at the 2025 AGM; and Class III, whose term will expire at the annual general meeting for the year ended December 31, 2026 (the “2026 AGM”). The current Class I Directors are Frank Dangeard and Phuthuma Nhleko; the current Class II Directors are John Ellis Bush, Mallam Bashir Ahmad El-Rufai and Nicholas Land; and the current Class III Directors are Sam Darwish, Ursula Burns, Maria Carolina Lacerda and Aniko Szigetvari. If the Restated Articles are adopted at the AGM, the Class I Directors will be elected for a one-year term to expire at the 2025 AGM. See Proposal No. 3 for more information regarding proposed changes to our class structure in the Restated Articles.

Election of Class I Directors

Our Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee and our Board recommend that we nominate each of our current Class I directors, Frank Dangeard and Phuthuma Nhleko, for election as a Class I director at the AGM.

Nominee’s Qualifications and Independence

Each of the nominees has consented to being named in this Proxy Statement and has advised the Company that he is willing, able and ready to serve as a Class I director if elected. Additionally, each of the nominees possesses the necessary qualifications and has sufficient time to fulfill his or her duties as a director of the Company, taking into account the size and needs of our Company. We do not have any arrangements, understandings or agreements with respect to the election of Frank Dangeard and Phuthuma Nhleko at the AGM. Each of Frank Dangeard and Phuthuma Nhleko is independent within the meaning of the independent director guidelines of the New York Stock Exchange.

Board Recommendation

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR the election of Frank Dangeard and Phuthuma Nhleko to be elected to serve as Class I Directors until the 2027 AGM or, if the Restated Articles are adopted at this AGM, until the 2025 AGM, and in either case, until their earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal.

PROPOSAL NO. 2: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

It is proposed that subject to and effective upon the adoption of the Restated Articles at the AGM, Mallam Bashir Ahmad El-Rufai and Nicholas Land be elected to serve as Class II Directors until the 2025 AGM, until their earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal.

We currently have nine (9) directors on our Board of Directors. Our current Class II Directors are John Ellis Bush, Mallam Bashir Ahmad El-Rufai and Nicholas Land, who have served on our Board since August 2019, June 2013 and August 2019, respectively. The Board has nominated Mallam Bashir Ahmad El-Rufai and Nicholas Land for election as Class II Directors at the AGM. John Ellis Bush will continue to serve as a Class II Director until the 2025 AGM without facing re-election at the AGM.

The proposal regarding the election of directors requires the approval of a plurality of the votes cast. This means that the two nominees receiving the highest number of affirmative “FOR” votes will be elected as Class II Directors. Votes withheld and broker non-votes are not considered to be votes cast and, accordingly, will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on this proposal.

As set forth in our Existing Articles, the Board is currently divided into three classes, Class I, Class II and Class III, with staggered, three-year terms. If the Restated Articles are not adopted at the AGM, at each future annual general meeting and in accordance with the Existing Articles, the successors to directors whose terms then expire will be elected to serve from the time of election and qualification until the third annual general meeting following election. The current class structure is as follows: Class I, whose current term will expire at the AGM, and, if elected at the AGM, whose subsequent term will expire at the 2027 AGM; Class II, whose term will expire at the 2025 AGM; and Class III, whose term will expire at the 2026 AGM.

If the Restated Articles are adopted at the AGM, two Class II Directors, Mallam Bashir Ahmad El-Rufai and Nicholas Land, will be elected at the AGM for a one-year term to expire at the 2025 AGM. Then, at the 2025 AGM, each of the Class I, Class II and Class III directors will be elected for a one-year term to expire at the Company’s 2026 AGM.

In either event, John Ellis Bush will continue to serve his term as a Class II Director until the 2025 AGM.

PROPOSAL NO. 3: AMENDMENT AND RESTATEMENT OF THE MEMORANDUM AND ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION OF THE COMPANY

It is proposed that the existing Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company (the “Existing Articles”) be amended and restated and replaced in their entirety with the Second Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association in the form attached as Annex A to this Proxy Statement (the “Restated Articles”), which reflects a comparison of the Existing Articles with the proposed Restated Articles.

The proposal regarding the amendment and restatement of the Company’s Existing Articles will be adopted by a special resolution (meaning a majority of not less than two-thirds of the votes cast, by or on behalf of, the shareholders of Ordinary Shares, represented in person or by proxy at the AGM). Abstentions and broker non-votes are not considered to be votes cast and, accordingly, will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on this proposal.

In addition to the matters described under Proposal 2, the principal changes to the Existing Articles set forth in the proposed Restated Articles are as follows:

(i)

To declassify the Board by eliminating its three classes and providing that, at the 2025 AGM, the terms of the Class I Directors and the Class II Directors will expire and, upon their respective election in accordance with the Restated Articles, such directors will serve for a one-year term to expire at the 2026 AGM. At the 2026 AGM, the term of each Class I Director, Class II Director, and Class III Director will expire and, upon their respective election in accordance with the Restated Articles, each will serve for a one-year term to expire at the next succeeding annual general meeting, or until their earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal.

(ii)

To allow a shareholder or group of shareholders collectively owning at least 25% in the aggregate of the issued Ordinary Shares to requisition in writing a general meeting of shareholders at any time after the 2025 AGM, in accordance with the terms of the Restated Articles. Under the Existing Articles, only directors may convene a general meeting of shareholders.

(iii)

Following the conclusion of the AGM, any shareholder owning more than ten percent of the issued Ordinary Shares and, at any time after the conclusion of the 2025 AGM, any shareholder or group of shareholders owning more than ten percent of the issued Ordinary Shares, may specify business to be transacted at any general meeting, or nominate directors at any general meeting or annual general meeting, in accordance with the terms of the Restated Articles. Under the Existing Articles, such threshold is 30% of the issued Ordinary Shares.

The aforementioned changes in (ii) and (iii) do not apply to Mobile Telephone Networks (Netherlands) B.V. or an affiliate of it or the MTN Group.

Board Recommendation

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR the approval of the special resolution to amend and restate the Existing Articles.

Resolution

“RESOLVED, as a special resolution that, the existing Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company be amended and restated and replaced in their entirety with the Second Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company in the form tabled at the AGM.”

MODIFICATION OF RIGHTS

With respect to any existing Class or sub-class and whenever the capital of the Company is divided into different Classes or sub-classes (and as otherwise determined by the Directors) the rights attached to any such Class or sub-class may, subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any Class or sub-class, only be materially adversely varied or abrogated, including with respect to any existing Class by the creation of a new Class or sub-class, with the consent in writing of the holders of not less than two-thirds of the issued Shares of the relevant Class or sub-class, or with the sanction of a resolution passed at a separate meeting of the holders of the Shares of such Class by a majority of two-thirds of the votes cast at such a meeting. To every such separate meeting all the provisions of these Articles relating to general meetings of the Company or to the proceedings thereat shall, mutatis mutandis, apply, except that the necessary quorum shall be one or more Persons at least holding or representing by proxy one-third in nominal or par value amount of the issued Shares of the relevant Class or sub-class and that, subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to the Shares of that Class or sub-class, every Shareholder of the Class or sub-class shall on a poll have one vote for each Share of the Class held by him. For the purposes of this Article the Directors may treat all the Classes or sub-class or any two or more Classes or sub-class as forming one Class or sub-class if they consider that all such Classes or sub-classes would be affected in the same way by the proposals under consideration, but in any other case shall treat them as separate Classes or sub-classes.

13.

The rights conferred upon the holders of the Shares of any Class or sub-class issued with preferred or any other rights shall not, subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to the Shares of that Class or sub-class, be deemed to be materially adversely varied or abrogated by, inter alia, the creation, allotment or issue of further Shares ranking pari passu with or subsequent to them or the redemption or purchase of any Shares of any Class by the Company.

CERTIFICATES

14.	No Person shall be entitled to a certificate for any or all of his Shares, unless the Directors shall determine otherwise.

15.

Every share certificate of the Company shall bear any legends required under applicable laws, including the Securities Act. If any share certificate is lost, destroyed or stolen, the Directors may require the holder or holders of the relevant Share to provide an indemnity in a form acceptable to the Directors. Upon such indemnity being provided, a new share certificate may be issued to the holder or holders entitled to such lost, destroyed or stolen share certificate, unless the Directors determine otherwise.

A-8

FRACTIONAL SHARES

16.

The Directors may issue fractions of a Share and, if so issued, a fraction of a Share shall be subject to and carry the corresponding fraction of liabilities (whether with respect to nominal or par value, premium, contributions, calls or otherwise), limitations, preferences, privileges, qualifications, restrictions, rights (including, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, voting and participation rights) and other attributes of a whole Share. If more than one fraction of a Share of the same Class is issued to or acquired by the same Shareholder such fractions shall be accumulated.

LIEN

17.

The Company has a first and paramount lien on every Share (whether or not fully paid) for all amounts (whether presently payable or not) payable at a fixed time or called in respect of that Share. The Company also has a first and paramount lien on every Share (whether or not fully paid) registered in the name of a Person indebted or under liability to the Company (whether he is the sole registered holder of a Share or one of two or more joint holders) for all amounts owing by him or his estate to the Company (whether or not presently payable). The Directors may at any time declare a Share to be wholly or in part exempt from the provisions of this Article. The Company’s lien on a Share extends to any amount payable in respect of it.

18.

The Company may sell, in such manner as the Directors may determine, any Share on which the Company has a lien, but no sale shall be made unless an amount in respect of which the lien exists is presently payable nor until the expiration of fourteen (14) days after a notice in writing, demanding payment of such part of the amount in respect of which the lien exists as is presently payable, has been given to the registered holder for the time being of the Share, or the Persons entitled thereto by reason of his death or bankruptcy.

19.

For giving effect to any such sale, the Directors may authorise some Person to transfer the Shares sold to the purchaser thereof. The purchaser shall be registered as the holder of the Shares comprised in any such transfer and he shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, nor shall his title to the Shares be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings in reference to the sale.

20.

The proceeds of the sale after deduction of expenses, fees and commission incurred by the Company shall be received by the Company and applied in payment of such part of the amount in respect of which the lien exists as is presently payable, and the residue shall (subject to a like lien for sums not presently payable as existed upon the Shares prior to the sale) be paid to the Person entitled to the Shares immediately prior to the sale.

CALLS ON SHARES

21.

The Directors may from time to time make calls upon the Shareholders in respect of any moneys unpaid on their Shares, and each Shareholder shall (subject to receiving at least fourteen (14) days’ notice specifying the time or times of payment) pay to the Company at the time or times so specified the amount called on such Shares.

22.	The joint holders of a Share shall be jointly and severally liable to pay calls in respect thereof.

23.

If a sum called in respect of a Share is not paid before or on the day appointed for payment thereof, the Person from whom the sum is due shall pay interest upon the sum at the rate of eight per cent. (8%) per annum from the day appointed for the payment thereof to the time of the actual payment, but the Directors shall be at liberty to waive payment of that interest wholly or in part.

24.

The provisions of these Articles as to the liability of joint holders and as to payment of interest shall apply in the case of non-payment of any sum which, by the terms of issue of a Share, becomes payable at a fixed time, whether on account of the amount of the Share, or by way of premium, as if the same had become payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified.

25.	The Directors may make arrangements on the issue of partly paid Shares for a difference between the Shareholders, or the particular Shares, in the amount of calls to be paid and in the times of payment.

A-9

26.

The Directors may, if they think fit, receive from any Shareholder willing to advance the same all or any part of the moneys uncalled and unpaid upon any partly paid Shares held by him, and upon all or any of the moneys so advanced may (until the same would, but for such advance, become presently payable) pay interest at such rate (not exceeding without the sanction of an Ordinary Resolution, eight per cent. (8%) per annum) as may be agreed upon between the Shareholder paying the sum in advance and the Directors.

FORFEITURE OF SHARES

27.

If a Shareholder fails to pay any call or instalment of a call in respect of any Shares on the day appointed for payment, the Directors may, at any time thereafter during such time as any part of such call or instalment remains unpaid, serve a notice on him requiring payment of so much of the call or instalment as is unpaid, together with any interest which may have accrued.

28.

The notice shall name a further day (not earlier than the expiration of fourteen (14) days from the date of the notice) on or before which the payment required by the notice is to be made, and shall state that in the event of non-payment at or before the time appointed the Shares in respect of which the call was made will be liable to be forfeited.

29.	If the requirements of any such notice as aforesaid are not complied with, any Share in respect of which the notice has been given may at any time thereafter, before the payment required by notice has been made, be forfeited by a resolution of the Directors to that effect.

30.	A forfeited Share may be sold or otherwise disposed of on such terms and in such manner as the Directors think fit, and at any time before a sale or disposition the forfeiture may be cancelled on such terms as the Directors think fit.

31.

A Person whose Shares have been forfeited shall cease to be a Shareholder in respect of the forfeited Shares, but shall, notwithstanding, remain liable to pay to the Company all moneys which at the date of forfeiture were payable by him to the Company in respect of the Shares forfeited, but his liability shall cease if and when the Company receives payment in full of the amount unpaid on the Shares forfeited.

32.	A statutory declaration in writing that the declarant is a Director, and that a Share has been duly forfeited on a date stated in the declaration, shall be conclusive evidence of the facts in the declaration as against all Persons claiming to be entitled to the Share.

33.

The Company may receive the consideration, if any, given for a Share on any sale or disposition thereof pursuant to the provisions of these Articles as to forfeiture and may execute a transfer of the Share in favour of the Person to whom the Share is sold or disposed of and that Person shall be registered as the holder of the Share, and shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, if any, nor shall his title to the Shares be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings in reference to the disposition or sale.

34.

The provisions of these Articles as to forfeiture shall apply in the case of non-payment of any sum which by the terms of issue of a Share becomes due and payable, whether on account of the amount of the Share, or by way of premium, as if the same had been payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified.

TRANSFER OF SHARES

35.

Subject to these Articles and the rules or regulations of the Designated Stock Exchange or any relevant securities laws, any Member may transfer all or any Shares by an instrument of transfer in the usual or common form or in a form prescribed by the Designated Stock Exchange or in any other form approved by the Directors and may be under hand or, if the transferor or transferee is a clearing house or its nominee(s), by hand or by machine imprinted signature or by such other manner of execution as the Directors may approve from time to time.

A-19

Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the period following the conclusion of an annual general meeting and the conclusion of the next succeeding annual general meeting: (i) the number of nominees nominated by any Member or group of Members pursuant to this Article 84 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, nominees for the purpose of replacing a Director removed pursuant to Article 104(d) hereof) shall in no event exceed, in aggregate (taken together), a maximum of (x) three (3) or (y) if the board of Directors comprises fewer than ten members, 30% of the total number of Directors in office as of the last day on which notice of a nomination in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Article 84 may be received by the Secretary pursuant to this Article 84, or if such amount is not a whole number, the closest whole number below 30%; and (ii) any nomination made by a Member or Members pursuant to this Article 84 for election at a general meeting that is not an annual general meeting, shall only be for the purpose of replacing a Director removed pursuant to Article 104(d) hereof; provided, however, that subject to the foregoing, the maximum number of nominees that may be proposed pursuant to this Article 84 for a particular annual general meeting or general meeting shall be reduced by: (A) each nominee whose nomination is withdrawn by the nominating Member(s) or who becomes unwilling to serve on the board of Directors; (B) each nominee who the board of Directors itself decides to nominate for election at such general meeting; and (C) each individual whose name will be included in the Company’s proxy or meeting materials as a nominee recommended by the board of Directors pursuant to an agreement, arrangement or other understanding with a Member or group of Members (other than any such agreement with any Member or Members and the Company existing as of the date of adoption of these Articles or any such agreement, arrangement or understanding entered into in connection with an acquisition of shares from the Company by such Member or group of Members). In the event that one or more vacancies for any reason occurs on the board of Directors after the last day on which notice of a nomination in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Article 84 may be received by the Secretary pursuant to Article 84, but before the date of the particular annual general meeting or general meeting to which the nomination relates and the board of Directors resolves to reduce the size of the board of Directors in connection therewith, the maximum number of Member nominees nominated pursuant to this Article 84 included in the Company’s notice of annual general meeting or of any other general meeting shall be calculated based on the number of Directors in office as so reduced. Any Member or group of Members submitting more than one nominee for nomination pursuant to this Article 84 shall rank its nominees based on the order that such Member or group of Members desires such nominees to be selected for inclusion in the Company’s notice of annual general meeting or of any other general meeting in the event that the total number of Member nominees submitted by a Member or group of Members pursuant to this Article 84 exceeds the maximum number of Member nominees provided for in this Article 84.

In the event that the number of Member nominees submitted by a Member or group of Members pursuant to this Article 84 exceeds in aggregate the maximum number of Member nominees provided for in this Article 84, the highest ranking Member nominee who meets the requirements of this Article 84 from each Member or group of Members will be selected for inclusion in the Company’s notice of annual general meeting or other general meeting until the maximum number is reached, going in order of the amount (largest to smallest) of Shares disclosed as owned in such nominating Member’s (or Members’ group) respective notice(s) of a nomination submitted to the Company in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Article 84; provided that, if any Member or group of Members have an equal amount of Shares disclosed as owned, the board of Directors, in its sole discretion, shall determine the ranking order as between such Members. If the maximum number is not reached after the highest ranking Member nominee who meets the requirements of this Article 84 has been selected from each Member or group of Members making nominations for the relevant meeting, then this process will continue as many times as necessary, following the same order each time, until the maximum number is reached. Following such determination, if any Member nominee who satisfies the eligibility requirements of this Article 84 is thereafter (i) nominated by the board or (ii) not included in the Company’s notice of the relevant general meeting or is not otherwise presented for a vote as a director pursuant to this Article 84, as a result of (x) the Member or group of Members making the nomination becoming ineligible or withdrawing its nomination, or (y) the Member nominee becoming unwilling or unable to serve on the board, no other nominee shall be included in the Company’s notice of the relevant general meeting or otherwise presented for a vote as a Director pursuant to this Article 84 in substitution thereof.

Every such alternate shall be entitled to attend and vote at meetings of the Directors as the alternate of the Director appointing him and where he is a Director to have a separate vote in addition to his own vote.

A-24

113.

A resolution in writing signed by all the Directors or all the members of a committee of Directors entitled to receive notice of a meeting of Directors or committee of Directors, as the case may be (an alternate Director, subject as provided otherwise in the terms of appointment of the alternate Director, being entitled to sign such a resolution on behalf of his appointer), shall be as valid and effectual as if it had been passed at a duly called and constituted meeting of Directors or committee of Directors, as the case may be.

114.

The continuing Directors may act notwithstanding any vacancy in their body but if and for so long as their number is reduced below the number fixed by or pursuant to these Articles as the necessary quorum of Directors, the continuing Directors may act for the purpose of increasing the number, or of summoning a general meeting of the Company, but for no other purpose.

115.

The Directors may elect a chairman of their meetings and determine the period for which he is to hold office but if no such chairman is elected, or if at any meeting the chairman is not present within fifteen minutes after the time appointed for holding the meeting, the Directors present may choose one of their number to be chairman of the meeting.

116.

Subject to any regulations imposed on it by the Directors, a committee appointed by the Directors may elect a chairman of its meetings. If no such chairman is elected, or if at any meeting the chairman is not present within fifteen minutes after the time appointed for holding the meeting, the committee members present may choose one of their number to be chairman of the meeting.

117.

A committee appointed by the Directors may meet and adjourn as it thinks proper. Subject to any regulations imposed on it by the Directors, questions arising at any meeting shall be determined by a majority of votes of the committee members present and in case of an equality of votes the chairman shall not have a second or casting vote.

118.

All acts done by any meeting of the Directors or of a committee of Directors, or by any Person acting as a Director, shall notwithstanding that it be afterwards discovered that there was some defect in the appointment of any such Director or Person acting as aforesaid, or that they or any of them were disqualified, be as valid as if every such Person had been duly appointed and was qualified to be a Director.

120.	Subject to any rights and restrictions for the time being attached to any Shares, the Company by Ordinary Resolution may declare dividends, but no dividend shall exceed the amount recommended by the Directors.

121.

The Directors may determine, before recommending or declaring any dividend, to set aside out of the funds legally available for distribution such sums as they think proper as a reserve or reserves which shall be applicable for meeting contingencies, or for equalising dividends or for any other purpose to which those funds may be properly applied and pending such application may, at the determination of the Directors, either be employed in the business of the Company or be invested in such investments as the Directors may from time to time think fit.

122.

Any dividend may be paid in any manner as the Directors may determine. If paid by cheque it will be sent through the post to the registered address of the Shareholder or Person entitled thereto, or in the case of joint holders, to any one of such joint holders at his registered address or to such Person and such address as the Shareholder or Person entitled, or such joint holders as the case may be, may direct. Every such cheque shall be made payable to the order of the Person to whom it is sent or to the order of such other Person as the Shareholder or Person entitled, or such joint holders as the case may be, may direct.

A-25

123.

The Directors when paying dividends to the Shareholders in accordance with the foregoing provisions of these Articles may make such payment either in cash or in specie and may determine the extent to which amounts may be withheld therefrom (including, without limitation, any taxes, fees, expenses or other liabilities for which a Shareholder (or the Company, as a result of any action or inaction of the Shareholder) is liable).

124.

Subject to any rights and restrictions for the time being attached to any Shares, all dividends shall be declared and paid according to the amounts paid up on the Shares, but if and for so long as nothing is paid up on any of the Shares dividends may be declared and paid according to the par value of the Shares.

CAPITALISATION OF RESERVES

132.	Subject to the Companies Act and these Articles, the Directors may:

(a)

resolve to capitalise an amount standing to the credit of reserves (including a Share Premium Account, capital redemption reserve and profit and loss account), whether or not available for distribution;

appropriate the sum resolved to be capitalised to the Shareholders in proportion to the nominal amount of Shares (whether or not fully paid) held by them respectively and apply that sum on their behalf in or towards:

(i)

paying up the amounts (if any) for the time being unpaid on Shares held by them respectively, or

(ii)

paying up in full unissued Shares or debentures of a nominal amount equal to that sum, and allot the Shares or debentures, credited as fully paid, to the Shareholders (or as they may direct) in those proportions, or partly in one way and partly in the other, but the Share Premium Account, the capital redemption reserve and profits which are not available for distribution may, for the purposes of this Article, only be applied in paying up unissued Shares to be allotted to Shareholders credited as fully paid;

generally do all acts and things required to give effect to any of the actions contemplated by this Article.

There shall be debited to any Share Premium Account on the redemption or purchase of a Share the difference between the nominal value of such Share and the redemption or purchase price provided always that at the determination of the Directors such sum may be paid out of the profits of the Company or, if permitted by the Companies Act, out of capital.

NOTICES

135.

WINDING UP

144.

If the Company shall be wound up, the liquidator may, with the sanction of an Ordinary Resolution divide amongst the Shareholders in specie or kind the whole or any part of the assets of the Company (whether they shall consist of property of the same kind or not) and may, for such purpose set such value as he deems fair upon any property to be divided as aforesaid and may determine how such division shall be carried out as between the Shareholders or different Classes. The liquidator may, with the like sanction, vest the whole or any part of such assets in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of the Shareholders as the liquidator, with the like sanction shall think fit, but so that no Shareholder shall be compelled to accept any assets whereon there is any liability.

AMENDMENT OF ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION

145.	Subject to the Companies Act and the rights attaching to the various Classes, the Company may at any time and from time to time by Special Resolution alter or amend these Articles in whole or in part.

CLOSING OF REGISTER OR FIXING RECORD DATE

146.

For the purpose of determining those Shareholders that are entitled to receive notice of, attend or vote at any meeting of Shareholders or any adjournment thereof, or those Shareholders that are entitled to receive payment of any dividend, or in order to make a determination as to who is a Shareholder for any other purpose, the Directors may provide that the Register shall be closed for transfers for a stated period which shall not exceed in any case forty (40) days.

147.

In lieu of or apart from closing the Register, the Directors may fix in advance a date as the record date for any such determination of those Shareholders that are entitled to receive notice of, attend or vote at a meeting of the Shareholders and for the purpose of determining those Shareholders that are entitled to receive payment of any dividend the Directors may, at or within ninety (90) days prior to the date of declaration of such dividend, fix a subsequent date as the record date for such determination.

148.

If the Register is not so closed and no record date is fixed for the determination of those Shareholders entitled to receive notice of, attend or vote at a meeting of Shareholders or those Shareholders that are entitled to receive payment of a dividend, the date on which notice of the meeting is posted or the date on which the resolution of the Directors declaring such dividend is adopted, as the case may be, shall be the record date for such determination of Shareholders. When a determination of those Shareholders that are entitled to receive notice of, attend or vote at a meeting of Shareholders has been made as provided in this Article, such determination shall apply to any adjournment thereof.

REGISTRATION BY WAY OF CONTINUATION

149.

The Company may by Special Resolution resolve to be registered by way of continuation in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands or such other jurisdiction in which it is for the time being incorporated, registered or existing. In furtherance of a resolution adopted pursuant to this Article, the Directors may cause an application to be made to the Registrar of Companies to deregister the Company in the Cayman Islands or such other jurisdiction in which it is for the time being incorporated, registered or existing and may cause all such further steps as they consider appropriate to be taken to effect the transfer by way of continuation of the Company.

A-32

(iii)

has any agreement, arrangement or understanding for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting (except voting pursuant to a revocable proxy or consent as described in Article 152(m)(ii)(2)), or disposing of such shares with any other Person that beneficially Owns, or whose Affiliates or Associates beneficially Own, directly or indirectly, such shares.
