Additional information for US investors
The Offer relates to the securities of a company incorporated in England and Wales and is subject to UK procedural and disclosure requirements that are different from those of the United States ("US"). Any financial statements or other financial information included in this Microsite may have been prepared in accordance with non-US accounting standards that may not be comparable to the financial statements of US companies or companies whose financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the US. It may be difficult for US holders of shares to enforce their rights and any claims they may have arising under the US federal securities laws in connection with the Offer, since the Company is located in a country other than the US, and some or all of its officers and directors may be residents of countries other than the US.
Forward Looking Statements
The Information on the Microsite (including any information incorporated by reference) may contain statements which are, or may be deemed to be, “forward-looking statements”. These forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate only to historical or current facts. Forward-looking statements often use words such as "anticipate", "target", "believe", "intend", "plan", "goal", "hope", "aim", "can", "continue", "could", "may", "should", "estimate", "expect", "opportunity", "will" and "would", and other words of similar meaning.
Any such forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and assessments of the directors of the Company based on their respective experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions, business strategies, operating environment, future developments and other factors and involve risks and uncertainties because they relate to future events and circumstances. Although it is believed that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, the actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in forward-looking statements as certain factors, surrounding risks and uncertainties may be beyond the Company's knowledge and/or control such as market conditions, global, political and economic events, and the performance of competitors. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to future events and circumstances, and you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements.
Any forward-looking statements contained in the Information on the Microsite speak only as of the date of the respective documents and are qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained in this disclaimer. The Company expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of subsequent events or developments, except to the extent legally required.
