     wholly-owned subsidiary nominee company, Schroder Nominees Limited         
    (Schroder Nominees).

(ii)  14,850,900 shares held in (a) unit trust(s) operated and managed by       
     another wholly-owned subsidiary, Schroder Unit Trusts Limited (SUTL), and  
    registered or to be registered in the name of Chase Nominees Limited.

(iii) 15,106,609 shares neither registered nor to be registered in the name of  
     Schroder Nominees Limited.  The registration details are shown on

An affiliated company, SIM North America Inc (SIMNA Inc), is managing (a)
portfolio(s) on a discretionary basis holding a further 2,850,000 shares.  The

18.711% of the total number of shares in issue, namely 307,380,913 shares.

This notification is made to you: -

    treated as having respectively under the Companies Act 1985 (the Act), and

(c)  on behalf of Schroders plc., our holding company, which is treated as      
    having an interest in all of the above shares under the Act by virtue of    
   its ownership of SIMNA Inc and ourselves.

We shall be grateful if you will kindly let us have a copy of your notification
to the Stock Exchange and if you will also confirm the total number of shares
currently in issue.

In addition please let us know whether your company or any of its subsidiaries
