Additionally, with regard to the amendments to the Income Tax Act
relating to dividend withholding tax, which became effective 1
April 2012, shareholders are advised that since the resolutions
for the odd-lot offer and specific offer were unconditionally
passed by Mpacta''s board prior to 1 April 2012, the new dividend
definition is not applicable to this transaction, and hence there will be no dividend withholding tax applied. Melrose Arch 9 July 2012 Merchant bank and sponsor
