Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company or the Group, or industry results, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are based on numerous assumptions regarding the present and future business strategies of the Company and the Group and the environment in which the Company and the Group will operate in the future.

Accordingly, the Placing Shares are being offered and sold only (i) outside of the United States in offshore transactions in reliance in Regulation S under the Securities Act and otherwise in accordance with applicable laws and (ii) in the United States to a limited number of “qualified institutional buyers” (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act) in transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act. There will be no public offering of the Placing Shares in the United States. The Placing Shares have not been approved or disapproved by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, any state securities commission in the United States or any U.S. regulatory authority, nor have any of the foregoing authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of any proposed offering of the securities of the Company, or the accuracy or adequacy of this presentation. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offence in the United States. This presentation is being distributed only to and directed only at (i) in member states of the European Economic Area, persons who are "qualified investors" within the meaning of Article 2(E) of the Prospectus Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 as amended from time to time ("Qualified Investors"), or (ii) Qualified Investors in the UK who are (a) persons who have professional experience in matters relating to investments who fall within the definition of "investment professionals" in Article 19(5) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotion) Order 2005 (the “Order”), (b) persons who are high net worth entities falling within Article 49(2)(a) to (d) of the Order or (c) otherwise, persons to whom it may otherwise lawfully be distributed (all such persons together being referred to as “Relevant Persons”). The presentation is directed only at Relevant Persons and must not be acted on or relied on by persons who are not Relevant Persons. Any investment or investment activity to which this presentation relates is available only to Relevant Persons and will be engaged in only with Relevant Persons. This presentation may only be communicated to persons in the UK in circumstances where section 21(1) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 does not apply to the Company. Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements contained within: (a) EU Directive 2014/65/EU on markets in financial instruments, as amended ("MiFID II"); (b) Articles 9 and 10 of Commission Delegated Directive (EU) 2017/593 supplementing MiFID II; and (c) local implementing measures (together, the "MiFID II Product Governance Requirements"), and disclaiming all and any liability, whether arising in tort, contract or otherwise, which any "manufacturer" (for the purposes of the Product Governance Requirements) may otherwise have with respect thereto, the Placing Shares have been subject to a product approval process, which has determined that the Placing Shares are: (i) compatible with an end target market of (a) retail investors, (b) investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and (c) eligible counterparties, each as defined in MiFID II; and (ii) eligible for distribution through all distribution channels as are permitted by MiFID II (the "Target Market Assessment"). Notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, distributors should note that: the price of the Placing Shares may decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment; the Placing Shares offer no guaranteed income and no capital protection; and an investment in the Placing Shares is compatible only with investors who do not need a guaranteed income or capital protection, who (either alone or in conjunction with an appropriate financial or other adviser) are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such an investment and who have sufficient resources to be able to bear any losses that may result therefrom. The Target Market Assessment is without prejudice to the requirements of any contractual, legal or regulatory selling restrictions in relation to the Placing. Furthermore, it is noted that, notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, the Joint Bookrunners will only procure investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties. For the avoidance of doubt, the Target Market Assessment does not constitute: (a) an assessment of suitability or appropriateness for the purposes of MiFID II; or (b) a recommendation to any investor or group of investors to invest in, or purchase, or take any other action whatsoever with respect to the Placing Shares. Each distributor is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the Placing Shares and determining appropriate distribution channels. The Joint Bookrunners, their group undertakings or Affiliates may in the course of their engagement be solicited by investment clients for whom the Joint Bookrunners, their group undertakings or Affiliates provide other services. The Joint Bookrunners, their group undertakings or Affiliates may also decide to allocate certain of the Placing Shares to their respective proprietary books. This represents a potential conflict of interest. The Joint Bookrunners, their group undertakings or Affiliates have internal arrangements designed to ensure that the Joint Bookrunners would give unbiased and full advice to a corporate finance client about valuation and pricing of an offering as well as internal systems, controls, and procedures to identify and to manage potential conflicts of interest.
