DECISION MAKING BY DIRECTORS 6 Directors to take decisions collectively 6.1 The general rule about decision-making by Directors is that any decision of the Directors must be either a majority decision at a meeting or a decision taken in accordance with article 7. 6.2 If:- 6.2.1 the Company only has one Director for the time being; and 6.2.2 no provision of the Articles requires it to have more than one Director, the general rule does not apply, and the Director may (for so long as he remains the sole Director) take decisions without regard to the provisions of articles 6 to 15 inclusive (but with the benefit of article 13.3). 7 Unanimous decisions 7.1 A decision of the Directors is taken in accordance with this article when all Eligible Directors indicate to each other by any means that they share a common view on a matter. 7.2 Such a decision may take the form of a resolution in Writing where each Eligible Director has signed one or more copies of it or to which each Eligible Director has otherwise indicated agreement in Writing. 7.3 A decision may not be taken in accordance with this article if the Eligible Directors would not have formed a quorum at such a meeting. 8 Calling a Directors meeting 8.1 Any Director may call a Directors meeting by giving notice of the meeting to the Directors or by authorising the company secretary (if any) to give such notice.

6 8.2 Notice of any Directors meeting must indicate:- 8.2.1 its proposed date and time; 8.2.2 where it is to take place; and 8.2.3 if it is anticipated that Directors Participating in the meeting will not be in the same place, how it is proposed that they should communicate with each other during the meeting. 8.3 Notice of a Directors meeting must be given to each Director, but need not be in Writing. 8.4 Notice of a Directors meeting need not be given to Directors who waive their entitlement to notice of that meeting, by giving notice to that effect to the Company not more than 7 days after the date on which the meeting is held. Where such notice is given after the meeting has been held, that does not affect the validity of the meeting, or of any business conducted at it. 9 Participation in Directors' meetings 9.1 Subject to the Articles, Directors participate in a Directors meeting, or part of a Directors meeting ("Participate") when:- 9.1.1 the meeting has been called and takes place in accordance with the Articles; and 9.1.2 they can each communicate to the others any information or opinions they have on any particular item of the business of the meeting. 9.2 In determining whether Directors are Participating in a Directors meeting, it is irrelevant where any Director is or how they communicate with each other. 9.3 If all the Directors Participating in a meeting are not in the same place, they may decide that the meeting is to be treated as taking place wherever any of them is. 10 Quorum for Directors' meetings 10.1 At a Directors meeting, unless a quorum is participating, no proposal is to be voted on, except a proposal to call another meeting. 10.2 The quorum for Directors meetings may be fixed from time to time by a decision of the Directors, but where the Company has two or more Directors it must never be less than two, and unless otherwise fixed it is three. 10.3 For the purposes of any meeting (or part of a meeting) held pursuant to article 16 to authorise a Director's conflict, if there is only one Eligible Director in office other than the Interested Directors (as defined in that article), the quorum for such meeting (or part of a meeting) shall be one Eligible Director.

7 10.4 If the total number of Directors for the time being is less than the quorum required, the Directors must not take any decision other than a decision:- 10.4.1 to appoint further Directors; or 10.4.2 to call a general meeting so as to enable the Members to appoint further Directors. 11 Chairing of Directors' meetings 11.1 The Directors may appoint a Director to chair their meetings. 11.2 The person so appointed for the time being is known as the Chairman. 11.3 The Directors may terminate the Chairman s appointment at any time. 11.4 If the Chairman is not participating in a Directors meeting within ten minutes of the time at which it was to start, the participating Directors must appoint one of themselves to chair it. 12 Casting vote 12.1 If the numbers of votes for and against a proposal are equal, the Chairman or other Director chairing the meeting has a casting vote. 12.2 Article 12.1 does not apply if, in accordance with the Articles, the Chairman or other Director is not to be counted as Participating in the decision-making process for quorum or voting purposes. 13 Directors' conflicts of interest in transactions or arrangements 13.1 If a proposed decision of the Directors is concerned with an existing or proposed transaction or arrangement with the Company in which a Director is interested (whether directly or indirectly), that Director shall disclose the nature and extent of that interest to the other Directors in accordance with sections 177 or 182 of the Act as applicable. 13.2 A Director who has complied with article 13.1:- 13.2.1 is to be counted as Participating in the decision-making process for quorum and voting purposes (this includes any Directors' meeting or part of a Directors' meeting); 13.2.2 may be a party to, or otherwise interested in, any transaction or arrangement: 13.2.2.1 with the Company; 13.2.2.2 with any Group Undertaking or with any other body corporate in which the Company is otherwise interested; or 13.2.2.3 in which the Company is otherwise interested, directly or indirectly;

8 13.2.3 may be a director or other officer of, or employed by, or otherwise interested in, any Group Undertaking or in any other body corporate in which the Company is otherwise interested; and 13.2.4 shall not, save as he otherwise may agree, be accountable to the Company for any remuneration or other benefit which he (or a person connected with him as defined in section 252 of the Act) derives from any of the matters described in articles 13.2.2 and 13.2.3. No such transaction or arrangement shall be liable to be avoided on the ground of any such interest or benefit nor shall the receipt of any such remuneration or other benefit constitute a breach of his duty under section 176 of the Act. 13.3 Where article 6.2 applies, the sole Director of the Company is authorised in terms of articles 13.2.2 to 13.2.4 and shall be deemed to have complied with article 13.1. 14 Minutes of meetings 14.1 The Directors shall ensure that the Company records minutes of proceedings at any Directors' meetings and that such records are kept for at least 10 years from the date of the relevant meeting. 15 Directors' discretion to make further rules Subject to the Articles, and provided it does not conflict with the Articles, the Directors may make any rule which they think fit about how they take decisions, and about how such rules are to be recorded or communicated to Directors. DIRECTORS' SITUATIONAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST 16 Board authorisation of situational conflicts 16.1 For the purposes of section 175 of the Act, the Directors shall have the power to authorise any matter which would or might otherwise constitute or give rise to a breach of the duty of a Director under that section to avoid a situation in which he has, or can have, a direct or indirect interest that conflicts, or possibly may conflict, with the interests of the Company. 16.2 Authorisation of a matter under this article shall be effective only if:- 16.2.1 the matter in question shall have been proposed in Writing for consideration by the Directors in accordance with the board's normal procedures or in such other manner as the Directors may approve; 16.2.2 where the matter is to be considered at a Directors' meeting, any requirement as to the quorum at such meeting is met without counting the Director in question and any other interested Director (together "Interested Directors"); and

9 16.2.3 the matter was agreed to without the Interested Directors voting or would have been agreed to if the votes of the Interested Directors had not been counted. 16.3 Any authorisation of a matter under this article (whether at the time of giving the authorisation or subsequently) may:- 16.3.1 extend to any actual or potential conflict of interest which may reasonably be expected to arise out of the matter so authorised; 16.3.2 be for such duration and subject to such terms, conditions or limitations as the Directors may determine (including, without limitation, as to the Director's entitlement to receive information on the matter, and his entitlement to Participate in any subsequent decision-making process relating to the matter); and 16.3.3 be varied or terminated by the Directors at any time. 16.4 In authorising a matter under this article, the Directors may decide that if a Director has obtained any information through his involvement in the matter otherwise than as a Director of the Company and in respect of which he owes a duty of confidentiality to another person, then the Director is under no obligation to:- 16.4.1 disclose such information to all or any of the Directors or other officer or employee of the Company; or 16.4.2 use or apply any such information in performing his duties as a Director 16.4.3 where to do so would amount to a breach of that confidence. 16.5 Where the Directors authorise a matter under this article, the Director will:- 16.5.1 conduct himself in accordance with any terms imposed by the Directors in relation to the matter; and 16.5.2 not infringe any duty he owes to the Company by virtue of sections 171 to 177 of the Act provided he acts in accordance with such terms, conditions and limitations (if any) which the Directors have imposed in respect of its authorisation. 16.6 A Director is not required, by reason of being a director (or because of the fiduciary relationship established by reason of being a director) to account to the Company for any remuneration, profit or other benefit which he (or a person connected with him as defined in section 252 of the Act) derives from or in connection with any matter authorised:- 16.6.1 by the Directors under this article; or 16.6.2 by the Company in general meeting

10 16.6.3 subject in each case to any terms, limits or conditions attaching to that authorisation. Any contract, transaction or arrangement relating thereto shall not be liable to be avoided on such grounds. APPOINTMENT OF DIRECTORS 17 Methods of appointing Directors 17.1 Any person who is willing to act as a director, and is permitted by law to do so, may be appointed to be a Director:- 17.1.1 by Ordinary Resolution; or 17.1.2 by a decision of the Directors. In such circumstances the appointed Director shall stand for election at the immediately succeeding annual general meeting of the Company. 17.2 In any case where, as a result of death, the Company has no Members and no Directors, the personal representatives of the last Member to have died have the right, by notice in Writing, to appoint a person to be a Director. 18 Termination of director's appointment 18.1 A person ceases to be a Director as soon as:- 18.1.1 that person ceases to be a Director by virtue of any provision of the Act or is prohibited from being a Director by law; 18.1.2 a Bankruptcy order is made against that person; 18.1.3 a composition is made with that person s creditors generally in satisfaction of that person s debts; 18.1.4 a registered medical practitioner who is treating that person gives a written opinion to the Company stating that that person has become physically or mentally incapable of acting as a Director and may remain so for more than three months; 18.1.5 notification is received by the Company from the Director that the Director is resigning from office, and such resignation has taken effect in accordance with its terms; 18.1.6 that person is guilty of conduct which has or is likely to have a serious adverse effect on the Company or bring the Company or any or all of the Members and directors into disrepute; or 18.1.7 that person has served two terms of three years as a Director.
