DEFINITION OF ASSOCIATE

It is not practicable to define associate in terms which would cover all the
different relationships which may exist in an offer. The term associate is
intended to cover all persons (whether or not acting in concert) who directly
or indirectly own or deal in the shares of an offeror or the offeree company in
an offer and who have (in addition to their normal interests as shareholders)
an interest or potential interest, whether commercial, financial or personal,
in the outcome of the offer.

Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, the term associate will
normally include the following:-

(1) an offeror's or the offeree company's parent, subsidiaries and fellow
subsidiaries, and their associated companies, and companies of which such
companies are associated companies (for this purpose ownership or control of
20% or more of the equity share capital of a company is regarded as the test of
associated company status);

(2) banks and financial and other professional advisers (including
stockbrokers)* to an offeror, the offeree company or any company covered in
(1), including persons controlling#, controlled by or under the same control as
such banks, financial and other professional advisers;

(3) the directors (together with their close relatives and related trusts) of
an offeror, the offeree company or any company covered in (1);

(4) the pension funds of an offeror, the offeree company or any company covered
in (1);

(5) any investment company, unit trust or other person whose investments an
associate manages on a discretionary basis, in respect of the relevant
investment accounts;

(6) a person who owns or controls 5% or more of any class of relevant
securities (as defined in paragraphs (a) to (d) in Note 2 on Rule 8) issued by
an offeror or an offeree company, including a person who as a result of any
transaction owns or controls 5% or more. When two or more persons act pursuant
to an agreement or understanding (formal or informal) to acquire or control
such securities, they will be deemed to be a single person for the purpose of
this paragraph. Such securities managed on a discretionary basis by an
investment management group will, unless otherwise agreed by the Panel, also be
deemed to be those of a single person (see Note 8 on Rule 8); and

(7) a company having a material trading arrangement with an offeror or the
offeree company.

Paragraphs (1)-(7) are typical cases. Paragraph (8) below is a category to
cover associate status not within (1)-(7).

 8. Other.
   
Notes

* References to a "bank" do not apply to a bank whose sole relationship with a
party to an offer is the provision of normal commercial banking services or
such activities in connection with the offer as confirming that cash is
available, handling acceptances and other registration work.

References to "financial and other professional advisers (including
stockbrokers)", in relation to a party to an offer, do not include an
organisation which has stood down, because of a conflict of interest or
otherwise, from acting for that party in connection with the offer if the
organisation is to have a continuing involvement with that party during the
offer, the Panel must be consulted. Unless the Panel is satisfied that the
involvement is entirely unconnected with the offer, the above exclusion will
not normally apply.

# The normal test for whether a person is controlled by, controls or is under
the same control as another person will be by reference to the definition of
control contained in the Code. There may be other circumstances which the Panel
will regard as giving rise to such a relationship (eg where a majority of the
equity share capital is owned by another person who does not have a majority of
the voting rights); in cases of doubt, the Panel should be consulted.
