11

6.4 | Sub-division or consolidation

Where during the Option Period the Company subdivides or consolidates its Shares, the Options must be subdivided or consolidated {as the case may be) in the same ratio as the Shares and the Exercise Price must be amended in inverse proportion to that ratio.

Where during the Option Period the Company makes a cancellation of any paid up share capital that is lost or not represented by available assets, the number of Options and the Exercise Price of each Option is unaltered.

6.12 | Rounding

Before an Option is exercised under clause 5.1, ail adjustment calculations are to be carried out including all fractions (in relation to both the Shares and the Exercise Price of the Option), but on exercise the number of Shares issued is rounded down to the next lower whole number and the Exercise Price rounded up to the next higher cent.

12
