DEALING DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS 
 
Under Rule 8.3(a) of the Code, any person who is interested in 1% or more of any 
class of relevant securities of an offeree company or of any paper offeror 
(being any offeror other than an offeror in respect of which it has been 
announced that its offer is, or is likely to be, solely in cash) must make an 
Opening Position Disclosure following the commencement of the offer period and, 
if later, following the announcement in which any paper offeror is first 
identified. 
 
An Opening Position Disclosure must contain details of the person's interests 
and short positions in, and rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities of 
each of (i) the offeree company and (ii) any paper offeror(s). An Opening 
Position Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(a) applies must be made by no 
later than 3.30 pm (London time) on the 10th business day following the 
commencement of the offer period and, if appropriate, by no later than 3.30 pm 
(London time) on the 10th business day following the announcement in which any 
paper offeror is first identified. Relevant persons who deal in the relevant 
securities of the offeree company or of a paper offeror prior to the deadline 
for making an Opening Position Disclosure must instead make a Dealing 
Disclosure. 
 
Under Rule 8.3(b) of the Code, any person who is, or becomes, interested in 1% 
or more of any class of relevant securities of the offeree company or of any 
paper offeror must make a Dealing Disclosure if the person deals in any relevant 
securities of the offeree company or of any paper offeror. A Dealing Disclosure 
must contain details of the dealing concerned and of the person's interests and 
short positions in, and rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities of each 
of (i) the offeree company and (ii) any paper offeror, save to the extent that 
these details have previously been disclosed under Rule 8. A Dealing Disclosure 
by a person to whom Rule 8.3(b) applies must be made by no later than 3.30 pm 
(London time) on the business day following the date of the relevant dealing. 
 
If two or more persons act together pursuant to an agreement or understanding, 
whether formal or informal, to acquire or control an interest in relevant 
securities of an offeree company or a paper offeror, they will be deemed to be a 
single person for the purpose of Rule 8.3.  Opening Position Disclosures must 
also be made by the offeree company and by any offeror and Dealing Disclosures 
must also be made by the offeree company, by any offeror and by any persons 
acting in concert with any of them (see Rules 8.1, 8.2 and 8.4). Details of the 
offeree and offeror companies in respect of whose relevant securities Opening 
Position Disclosures and Dealing Disclosures must be made can be found in the 
Disclosure Table on the Takeover Panel's website at www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk, 
including details of the number of relevant securities in issue, when the offer 
period commenced and when any offeror was first identified. If you are in any 
doubt as to whether you are 
required to make an Opening Position Disclosure or a Dealing Disclosure, you 
should contact the Panel's Market Surveillance Unit on +44 (0)20 7638 0129.
