In acting for their Clients, Silchester are given full discretion over their investments and are empowered to vote on their behalf. However, Silchester do not act as their Client's custodian and therefore shares are not held in Silchester's name but in the name of each Client's custodian bank.

Details of the number of shares held before the change (shown in Section A 'Situation previous to the Triggering transaction' above), represent the shares held by Silchester's clients as of the date of the last Notice of Substantial Shareholder's Interest and not as of the last trading day before which this disclosure level was triggered.
