The term "liquidation preference" when used in the Tender Offer
Memorandum refers to the nominal or paid up amount of the relevant
Securities.&#xA0; It does not include any premium amount which may
be payable on a winding up or liquidation of the Issuer.&#xA0; The
liquidation preference of each of the Securities is therefore
&#xA3;1.00.&#xA0; In accordance with the terms and conditions of
the Offers set out in the Tender Offer Memorandum, a holder whose
Securities are validly tendered and accepted for purchase pursuant
to the relevant Offer would receive a cash purchase price of
&#xA3;1.02 for each 5.50 per cent. Cumulative Preference Share, and
&#xA3;1.55 in respect of each 11.00 per cent. Cumulative Preference
Share, as applicable, in each case together with the relevant
Accrued Dividend Payment.</font></div>
