payment date. Where the transfer secretaries do not have the banking details of any certificated shareholders, the cash dividend will
be held in trust by the transfer secretaries pending receipt of the relevant certificated shareholder's banking details after which the
cash dividend will be paid via electronic transfer into the personal bank account of the certificated shareholder.
