transfer. Even though delivery of Clearnet Shares may be effected through book-entry transfer in<strong>to</strong> the<br />
Depositary’s account at the Book-Entry Transfer Facility, a properly completed and duly executed Letter of<br />
Transmittal, with any required signature guarantees, or an Agent’s Message (as defined below), <strong>to</strong>gether in each<br />
case with any other required documents must, in any case, be transmitted <strong>to</strong> and received by the Depositary<br />
prior <strong>to</strong> the Expiry Time, or the guaranteed delivery procedure set forth below must be followed. Delivery of a<br />
Letter of Transmittal, a Notice of Guaranteed Delivery or any other document <strong>to</strong> the Book-Entry Transfer<br />

received by the Depositary forming a part of a confirmation (the ‘‘Book-Entry Confirmation’’) which states that<br />
(i) the Book-Entry Transfer Facility has received from the participant in the Book-Entry Transfer Facility an<br />
express acknowledgement of the particulars of such participant’s tender of the Clearnet Shares that are the<br />
subject of the Book-Entry Confirmation, (ii) the participant in the Book-Entry Transfer Facility has received and<br />
agrees <strong>to</strong> be bound by the terms of the Letter of Transmittal, and (iii) the <strong>Offer</strong>ors may enforce such agreement<br />
against the participant in the Book-Entry Transfer Facility.<br />

regards <strong>to</strong> these procedures.<br />
