Forward looking statements 

 This Microsite and the Information contained in it contains certain statements which are, or may be deemed to be, forward looking statements with respect to the financial condition, results of operations and business of the Company and certain plans and objectives of the boards of directors of the Company. These forward looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate to historical or current facts. Forward looking statements often use words such as “anticipate”, “target”, “expect”, “estimate”, “intend”, “plan”, “goal”, “believe”, “will”, “may”, “should”, “would”, “could” or other words of similar meaning. These statements are based on assumptions and assessments made by the board of directors of the Company in the light of their experience and their perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors they believe appropriate. By their nature, forward looking statements involve risk and uncertainty and the factors described in the context of such forward looking statements could cause actual results and developments to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by such forward looking statements. 

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialise, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in this Microsite and the Information contained herein. Except as required by applicable law or regulation, the Company assumes no obligation to update or correct the Information contained in this Microsite and the Information contained herein.

Additional US information

 The Formal Sales Process relates to the securities of a UK company and is subject to UK procedural and disclosure requirements that are different from those of the United States. Any financial statements or other financial information included in this Microsite may have been prepared in accordance with non-US accounting standards that may not be comparable to the financial statements of US companies or companies whose financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. It may be difficult for US holders of shares to enforce their rights and any claims they may have arising under the US federal securities laws in connection with the Formal Sales Process, since the Company is located in a country other than the United States, and some or all of their officers and directors may be residents of countries other than the United States. US holders of shares may not be able to sue the Company or its officers or directors in a non-US court for violations of the US securities laws. Further, it may be difficult to compel the Company and its respective affiliates to subject themselves to the jurisdiction or judgment of a US court.
