GENERAL INFORMATION
PLEASE NOTE THAT ALTHOUGH THE NOTE TRUSTEE MAY HAVE CERTAIN
DISCRETIONS UNDER THE NOTE TRUST DEED TO DETERMINE THAT ANY
PROPOSED MODIFICATION(S) WILL NOT BE MATERIALLY PREJUDICIAL TO THE
INTERESTS OF THE HOLDER OF ANY SERIES AND CLASS OF NOTES, THERE IS
NO OBLIGATION ON THE NOTE TRUSTEE TO EXERCISE ANY SUCH DISCRETION
AND THE NOTE TRUSTEE MAY NOT EXERCISE ANY SUCH DISCRETION. EXISTING
NOTEHOLDERS ARE THEREFORE URGED TO EXERCISE THEIR RIGHT TO
VOTE.
The attention of Existing Noteholders is drawn, in particular,
to the quorum required for the Adjourned Meeting and for any
adjourned meeting which is set out in paragraphs A, B and C of
"Voting and Quorum" below. Having regard to such requirements,
Existing Noteholders are strongly urged either to attend the
Adjourned Meeting or to take steps to be represented at the
Adjourned Meeting, as referred to below, as soon as possible.
VOTING AND QUORUM
The following is a summary of the arrangements which have been
made for the purpose of Existing Noteholders voting in respect of
the Extraordinary Resolutions to be proposed at the Adjourned
Meetings as set out above. These arrangements satisfy the
requirements of the provisions contained in the Note Trust Deed
relating to the meetings of Noteholders convened for the purpose of
passing Extraordinary Resolutions. Full details of these
arrangements are set out in Schedule 4 (Provisions for Meetings of
Noteholders) to the Note Trust Deed. The voting procedures for the
adjourned meetings are different depending on whether Notes are
held through Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg (each as defined
below and each a Clearing System). The procedures are described
below.
In the event that any of the Existing Notes are held through DTC
then the Existing Noteholders should refer to the information
contained in the "Voting and Quorum" section of the Original
Notice.
Copies of the Note Trust Deed are available for inspection by
the Existing Noteholders during usual business hours at the
specified offices of the Principal Paying Agent on any weekday
(public holidays excepted) and in the Data Room up to and including
the date of the Adjourned Meeting and at the Adjourned Meeting.
All the Existing Notes are represented by a global note and are
held by a common depositary or common safekeeper for Euroclear Bank
S.A./N.V. (Euroclear) and Clearstream Banking, societe anonyme
(Clearstream, Luxembourg).
Any Existing Noteholder who wishes to vote in respect of the
Extraordinary Resolutions should: (i) in the case of a beneficial
owner whose Notes are held in book-entry form by a custodian,
request such beneficial owner's custodian to vote on the relevant
Extraordinary Resolution(s) in accordance with the procedures set
out below, or (ii) in the case of an Existing Noteholder whose
Notes are held in book-entry form directly in the relevant Clearing
System, vote on the relevant Extraordinary Resolution(s) in
accordance with the procedures set out below.
Existing Noteholders should note that the timings and procedures
set out below reflect the requirements for Noteholder meetings set
out in Schedule 4 (Provisions for meetings of Noteholders) to the
Note Trust Deed, but that the Clearing Systems may have their own
additional requirements as to timings and procedures for voting on
the Extraordinary Resolutions. Accordingly, Existing Noteholders
wishing to vote in respect of the Extraordinary Resolutions are
strongly urged either to contact their custodian (in the case of a
beneficial owner whose Notes are held in book-entry form by a
custodian) or the relevant Clearing System (in the case of an
Existing Noteholder whose Notes are held in book-entry form
directly in the relevant Clearing System), as soon as possible.
A. For Notes held through Euroclear or Clearstream,
Luxembourg:
Each person who is the owner of a particular nominal amount of
the Notes, as shown in the records of Euroclear, Clearstream,
Luxembourg or their respective accountholders (an Accountholder)
should note that they are not the legal holders of the Notes for
the purposes of the adjourned meeting and will only be entitled to
attend and vote at the adjourned meetings in accordance with the
procedures set out below.
1. An Accountholder wishing to attend and vote at an Adjourned
Meeting in person should contact the relevant Clearing System to
make arrangements for the issue of a voting certificate in respect
of the Notes in which they have an interest for the purpose of
attending and voting at the adjourned meeting in person.
2. If an Accountholder wishes to obtain a voting certificate
from the Principal Paying Agent, he must deposit or block his Note
at least 48 hours before the time fixed for the relevant Adjourned
Meeting with or to the order of the Principal Paying Agent with a
bank or other depository nominated by the Principal Paying Agent
for the purpose.
3. If an Accountholder wishes the votes attributable to his Note
to be included in a block voting instruction, (a) he must make
arrangements for the votes relating to such Notes to be included in
a block voting instruction with the relevant Clearing System in
time for the relevant Clearing System to arrange for the Tabulation
Agent to be appointed as a proxy (proxy) not later than 48 hours
before the time fixed for the relevant Adjourned Meeting; (b) he
must deposit or block his Note at least 48 hours before the time
fixed for the relevant Adjourned Meeting with or to the order of
the Principal Paying Agent with a bank or other depository
nominated by the Principal Paying Agent for the purpose; and (c) he
or a duly authorised person on his behalf must direct the
Tabulation Agent how those votes are to be cast.
4. Each block voting instruction shall be deposited at such
place as the Note Trustee shall designate or approve at least 24
hours before the time appointed for holding the relevant Adjourned
Meeting and in default the block voting instruction shall not be
treated as valid unless the chairman of the relevant Adjourned
Meeting decides otherwise before the relevant Adjourned Meeting
proceeds to business. A copy of each block voting instruction shall
be deposited with the Note Trustee before the commencement of the
relevant Adjourned Meeting but the Note Trustee shall not be
obliged to investigate or be concerned with the validity or the
authority of the proxy appointed.
5. An Accountholder whose Note(s) are held at the relevant
Clearing System who wishes to obtain a voting certificate or give a
voting instruction instructing the Principal Paying Agent in
respect of such Note(s) to appoint a proxy to attend and vote at
the relevant Adjourned Meeting on his behalf should not less than
48 hours before the time appointed for the holding of the Adjourned
Meeting and within the relevant time limit specified by the
relevant Clearing System, request the relevant Clearing System to
block his Note(s) in his own account and hold the same to the order
or under the control of the Principal Paying Agent in respect of
such Note(s).
An Accountholder whose Note(s) have been so blocked will thus be
able to obtain a voting certificate from, or procure that a voting
instruction is given in accordance with the procedures of,
Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg, to the Principal Paying
Agent. Notes so blocked will be released in accordance with the
procedures of Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case
may be.
B. General provisions relating to the Adjourned Meetings:
1. You may vote on the proposed Extraordinary Resolutions by
either requesting a voting certificate in the manner described
above which will allow you to attend and vote at the adjourned
meeting as the bearer of a voting certificate or arranging to
deliver voting instructions through the Clearing Systems or a form
of proxy with respect to your Notes.
2. The quorum for each Adjourned Meeting shall be two or more
persons present holding or representing Notes or voting
certificates or being proxies or representatives whatever the
aggregate Principal Amount Outstanding of the Notes then
outstanding of the relevant Series and Class or of any one or more
Series of the same Class, as applicable so held or represented.
