Issue of shares with special rights:	3	Subject to the Law and without prejudice to any special rights previously conferred on the holders of existing shares, any shares in the capital of the Company (whether forming part of the original capital or not) may be issued with such preferred, deferred or other special rights or such restrictions, whether in regard to dividends, voting, return of share capital, payment of calls or otherwise, as the Directors may from time to time determine and the rights attaching to shares of a class other than ordinary shares shall be expressed at the date of issue. Any preference share may be issued on the terms that it is, or, at the option of the Company is, liable to be redeemed out of profits or otherwise and any preference share may be issued so as to rank in any respect equally with, or in priority to, any other preference share of the Company already on issue.
Shares at the disposal of Directors:	4	Save as provided by contract or this Constitution to the contrary, all unissued shares shall be under the control of the Directors who may in their discretion grant calls or options thereon, issue option certificates in respect thereof, allot or otherwise dispose of the same to such persons on such terms and conditions and

3

		for such consideration and for or at such time as they think fit. The Company shall maintain a register of options in accordance with the Law.
Power to pay commission & brokerage:	5	The Company may at any time pay a commission to any person in consideration of his subscribing or agreeing to subscribe, whether absolutely or conditionally, for any shares in the Company, or procuring or agreeing to procure subscriptions, whether absolute or conditional, for any shares in the Company. The commission may be paid or satisfied in cash or in shares, debentures or debenture stock of the Company or otherwise. The Company may in addition to or in lieu of the commission pay such brokerage as is permitted by law.
Surrender of shares:	6	The Directors may, in their discretion, accept a surrender of shares by way of compromise of any question as to whether or not such shares have been validly issued or in any other case where the surrender is within the powers of the Company. Any shares surrendered may be sold or re-issued in the same manner as forfeited shares.
Joint holders of shares:	7	Where two or more persons are registered as the holders of any share they shall be deemed to hold the share as joint tenants with benefits of survivorship subject to the following provisions:
Not more than three persons to be registered:		(a)	the Company shall not be bound to register more than three persons (not being the personal representatives of a deceased holder) as the holders of any share;
Liability for payments:		(b)	the joint holders of any share shall be liable severally as well as jointly in respect of all payments which ought to be made in respect of the share;
Death of joint holder:		(c)	on the death of any one joint holder, the survivor or survivors shall be the only person or persons recognised by the Company as having any title to the share, but the Directors may require such evidence of death as they may deem fit and the estate of the deceased shareholder is not released from any liability in respect of the shares;
Power to give receipt:		(d)	any one of the joint holders may give effectual receipts for any dividend, bonus or return of capital payable to the joint holders;
Notices to joint holders:		(e)	only the person whose name stands first in the Register or Branch Register as one of the joint holders of any share shall be entitled, where the Company is required by the Law to issue certificates for shares, to delivery of the certificate relating to the share or to receive notices from the Company, and any notice given to the person shall be deemed notice to all the joint holders; and

4

Votes of joint holders:		(f)	at any meeting of the Company any one of the joint holders may vote either personally or by duly authorised representative or by attorney or proxy in respect of the share as if he were solely entitled thereto but if more than one of the joint holders is present personally or by duly authorised representative, proxy or attorney the holder who is present whose name stands first in the Register or Branch Register in respect of the share shall alone be entitled to vote in respect of the share.
Non-recognition of equitable interests etc:	8	Except as otherwise provided in this Constitution, the Company shall be entitled to treat the registered holder of a share as the absolute owner and accordingly shall not, except as ordered by a Court of competent jurisdiction or as required by statute, be bound to recognise (even when having notice thereof) any equitable or other claim to or interest in the share on the part of any other person.
		MODIFICATION OF RIGHTS
How special rights may be varied:	9	Subject to the Law, whenever the capital of the Company is divided into different classes of shares, all or any of the rights and privileges attached to any class may be varied or abrogated, and any repayment of capital in respect of any class of shares may be effected, by a special resolution approving the proposed variation, abrogation or repayment passed at a special meeting of the holders of shares of that class or (if a quorum is not present at the special meeting or if the resolution is not passed by the necessary majority) by consent in writing signed by the holders of at least three-fourths of the issued shares of that class within two calendar months from the date of such special meeting; provided that no approval or consent shall be required in respect of the redemption of any redeemable shares in accordance with the terms of their issue. All the provisions in this Constitution as to general meetings shall mutatis mutandis apply to a special meeting held in accordance with this Rule. For the purposes of this Rule any member who votes at a special meeting in favour of a resolution approving a proposed variation, abrogation or repayment shall be deemed to have consented in writing to the variation, abrogation or repayment.
		SHARE CERTIFICATES
	10	When the Company is required by the Law to issue certificates for shares, the certificates shall be issued under the Seal or a Duplicate Seal (which may have the addition of the words “Certificate Seal”) and shall otherwise be executed in the form and contain such matters as the Directors may from time to time prescribe.

5

11	Subject to paragraph (e) of Rule 7, where the Company is required by the Law to issue certificates every member shall be entitled, without payment, to one certificate for the shares registered in his name or to several certificates in reasonable denominations each for a part of the shares.
12	The Company may send any certificate to a member by pre-paid post addressed to the member at his registered place of address or as may be otherwise directed by the member and every certificate sent shall be at the risk of the member entitled thereto.
13	Subject to the Law, where a certificate is lost, stolen, destroyed, worn out or defaced the Directors may order it to be cancelled and upon the giving of such indemnity (if any) as the Directors think fit and the payment of such fee (if any) as the Directors may from time to time determine, a new certificate may be given to the party entitled thereto.
	CALLS
14	Subject to the Law, and the terms upon which any shares may have been issued the Directors may, from time to time, make calls upon the members in respect of all moneys unpaid on their shares and may in their discretion revoke or postpone those calls. Each member shall pay the amount of the call to the Company at the time or times and place specified by the Directors.
15	Without limiting the generality of Rule 3, the Directors may make arrangements on the issue of shares for a difference between the holders of the shares the subject of the issue, in the amount of calls to be paid and the time for payment of the calls.
16	A call shall be deemed to have been made at the time when the resolution of the Directors authorising the call was passed and may be required to be paid by instalments.
17	If any sum (or part thereof) payable in respect of a call is not paid on or before the due date the member from whom the sum is due shall pay interest on the amount unpaid from the due date to the date of payment at a rate as the Directors from time to time determine. The Directors may waive payment of interest wholly or in part.
18	If, by the terms of an issue of shares, any amount is payable in respect of any shares by instalments every instalment shall be payable as if it were a call duly made by the Directors of which due notice has been given, and all provisions of this

6

		Constitution with respect to the payment of calls and interest, or to the forfeiture of shares for non-payment of calls or with respect to liens or charges shall apply to the instalment and to the shares in respect of which it is payable.
	19	The Directors may, if they think fit, receive from any member all or any part of the moneys uncalled and unpaid on all or any of the shares held by him and the Company may pay interest on the moneys advanced at such rate and on such terms as may be agreed by the Directors and that member. Subject to any contract to the contrary the Directors may, if they think fit, repay to such member all or any part of the money so paid in advance or so much thereof as for the time being exceeds the amount of the calls then made and due on such shares.
	20	The non-receipt of a notice of any call by, or the accidental omission to give notice of a call to, any of the members shall not invalidate the call.
		TRANSFER AND TRANSMISSION OF SECURITIES
Form of instrument of transfer:	21	No transfer of shares, rights to shares or options to acquire shares shall be registered unless a proper instrument of transfer, in writing in the usual form or in any other form the Directors may from time to time prescribe or in particular cases accept, duly stamped (if necessary), is delivered to the Company.
Execution of instrument of transfer:	22	If required by the Law or the Directors, the instrument of transfer shall be signed by or on behalf of the transferor and if required by the Law or the Directors, the transferee. The transferor shall be deemed to remain the holder of the shares, rights to shares or options to acquire shares until the name of the transferee is entered in the Register in respect thereof.
Instrument of transfer and certificate to be left at office:	23	Every instrument of transfer shall be left at the Office (or in the case of securities on a Branch Register either at the Office or at the Branch Office) for registration accompanied by the certificate for the securities to be transferred or such other evidence (if any) as the Directors may require to prove the title of the transferor, his right to transfer the securities, the due execution of the transfer or the due compliance with any law relating to stamp duty.
No transfer to infant, lunatic or person of unsound mind:	24	No transfer shall be made to an infant, a person of unsound mind or to a person whose person or estate is liable to be dealt with in any way under laws relating to mental health but the Company shall not be bound to inquire as to the age or soundness of mind of any transferee.

7

Directors may refuse to register:	25	The Directors may in their absolute discretion refuse to register any transfer of securities. The decision of the Directors to refuse to register any transfer of securities shall be absolute. Where required to do so by the Law the Company shall give written notice of the refusal to register the transfer in accordance with the requirements of the Law, but failure to give such notice shall not invalidate the decision of the Directors.
Co. to retain instrument of transfer:	26	Every instrument of transfer which is registered shall, for any period determined by the Directors, be retained by the Company after which the Company may destroy it.
Closing Register & Branch Register:	27	Subject to the Law, the transfer books, the Register and each Branch Register may be closed during such time as the Directors think fit.
Cancellation of old and issue of new certificate:	28	Subject to Rules 23 and 25, on every application to register the transfer of any securities or to register any person as a member in respect of any securities transmitted to the person by operation of law or otherwise, the certificate (if any) specifying the securities in respect of which registration is required shall be delivered up to the Company for cancellation, and upon registration, the certificate is deemed to have been cancelled. Where the Company is required by the Law to issue certificates for securities, a new certificate specifying the securities transferred or transmitted shall be issued and sent to the transferee or transmittee. If the registration of any transfer is required in respect of only some of the specified securities where the Company is required by the Law to issue certificates for securities and upon the payment of such fee (if any) as the Directors may from time to time determine a new certificate specifying the securities remaining untransferred shall be issued and sent to the transferor.
Transmission upon death:	29	The personal representatives of a deceased member (not being one of several joint holders) shall be the only person recognised by the Company as having any title to the securities registered in the name of the member; provided that the Directors may, subject to compliance by the transferee with this Constitution and subject to any contrary statutory requirement, register any transfer signed by a member prior to the member’s death notwithstanding that the Company has notice of the member’s death.
Transmission by operation of law:	30	A person (a “transmittee”) who establishes to the satisfaction of the Directors that the right to any securities has devolved on the transmittee by will or by operation of law may be registered as a holder in respect of the securities or may (subject to the provisions in this Constitution relating to transfers) transfer the

8

		securities. However, the Directors have the same right to refuse to register the transmittee as if the transmittee was the transferee named in an ordinary transfer presented for registration.
	FORFEITURE AND LIEN
Notice requiring payment of sums payable:	31	If any member fails to pay any sum payable on or in respect of any shares, either for allotment money, calls or instalments, on or before the day appointed for payment, the Directors may, at any time thereafter whilst any part of the sum remains unpaid, serve a notice on the member requiring him to pay the sum or so much of the sum as remains unpaid together with interest accrued and all expenses incurred by the Company by reason of the non-payment.
Time and place for payment:	32	The notice shall name a day (not being less than fourteen days after the date of the notice) on or before which the sum, interest and expenses (if any) are to be paid and the place or places where payment is to be made. The notice shall also state that, in the event of non-payment at or before the time and at the place appointed, the shares in respect of which the sum is payable will be liable to be forfeited.
Forfeiture on non compliance with notice:	33	If the requirements of the notice are not complied with, any shares in respect of which the notice has been given may, at any time thereafter before payment of the sums due pursuant to the notice, be forfeited by a resolution of the Directors. Forfeiture shall include forfeiture of the right to receive all dividends, interest and other moneys payable by the Company in respect of the forfeited shares and not actually paid before the forfeiture.
Notice of forfeiture:	34	When any share is forfeited, notice of the resolution shall be given to the member and an entry of the forfeiture and the date of the forfeiture shall forthwith be made in the Register or Branch Register as the case may be. Failure to give notice or make the entry as required by this Rule shall not invalidate the forfeiture.
Disposal of forfeited shares:	35	Any forfeited share shall be deemed to be the property of the Company and the Directors may sell, re-allot or otherwise dispose of the share in such manner as they think fit and, in the case of re-allotment, with or without any money paid on the share by any former holder thereof being credited as paid up.
Annulment of forfeiture:	36	The Directors may, at any time before any forfeited share is sold, re-allotted or otherwise disposed of, annul the forfeiture on any condition they think fit.

9

Liability notwith- standing forfeiture:	37	Any member whose shares have been forfeited shall notwithstanding the forfeiture, be liable to pay and shall forthwith pay to the Company all sums of money owing upon or in respect of the shares at the time of forfeiture, together with interest thereon from that time until payment at a rate that the Directors may from time to time determine and expenses, and the Directors may enforce the payment of the whole or part of any sum payable under this Rule as they think fit.
Company’s lien or charge:	38	The Company shall have a first and paramount lien or charge for unpaid calls and instalments and for interest due in relation to any calls or instalments upon shares in respect of which calls and instalments are due and unpaid (whether presently payable or not) and upon the proceeds of sale of the shares and also for such amounts as the Company may be called upon by law to pay in respect of the shares of the members or deceased members, and the lien or charge shall extend to all dividends and bonuses from time to time declared in respect of the shares, provided always that if the Company registers any transfer of any shares upon which it has a lien or charge without giving to the transferee notice of its claim, the shares shall be freed and discharged from the lien or charge of the Company.
Sale of shares to enforce lien:	39	For the purpose of enforcing a lien or charge, the Directors may sell or otherwise dispose of the shares subject to the lien or charge in such manner as they think fit, and with or without giving any notice to the member in whose name the shares are registered.
Title to shares forfeited or sold to enforce lien or charge: Application of proceeds of sale:	40	(a)    In the case of a sale or a re-allotment of forfeited shares or of the sale or disposal of shares to enforce a lien or charge an entry in the minute book of the Directors that the shares have been duly forfeited, re-allotted, sold or disposed of in accordance with this Constitution shall be sufficient evidence of that fact as against all persons entitled to the shares immediately before their forfeiture or sale. The Company may receive the purchase money or consideration (if any) given for the shares on any sale, disposal or re-allotment. (b)    In the case of a re-allotment, a certificate under the hand of a Director or the Secretary to the effect that the shares have been duly forfeited or such other evidence of title as the Directors may determine is sufficient and the receipt by the Company of the price of the shares shall constitute a good title to the shares. (c)    In the case of a sale the Company may appoint a person to execute a transfer in favour of the person to whom the shares are sold. Upon the issue of the receipt or the execution of the transfer the person to whom the shares

10

		have been sold or re-allotted shall be registered as the holder of the shares discharged from all calls or other money due in respect of the shares prior to the purchase or allotment and he shall not be bound to see to the regularity of the proceedings or to the application of the purchase money or consideration nor shall his title to the shares be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings in reference to the sale, forfeiture or re-allotment. (d)    The net proceeds of any sale or allotment shall be applied first in payment of all costs of or in relation to the enforcement of the lien or charge or the forfeiture (as the case may be) and of the sale or re-allotment, next in satisfaction of the amount in respect of which the lien or charge exists as is then payable to the Company (including interest) and the residue (if any) paid to the person registered as the holder of the shares immediately prior to the sale or re-allotment or his personal representatives or assigns or as he shall direct upon production of such evidence as to title, including the production of the certificate for the shares, as the Directors may require. (e)    If, at a time when the Company is required by the Law to issue certificates, the certificate for such shares is not produced to the Company the Directors may issue a new certificate distinguishing it as they think fit from the certificate not produced.
	ALTERATION OF SHARE CAPITAL
	41	The Company by resolution passed in general meeting may from time to time alter its share capital in one or more of the ways provided for, and in the manner prescribed, by the Law.
	42	The Directors may do all acts and things required to give effect to any resolution authorising alteration of the Company’s share capital and, without limitation, may make such provision for the issue of fractional certificates or sale of fractions of shares and distribution of net proceeds as they think fit.
	43	Subject to this Constitution, the Company may from time to time reduce its share capital in any manner allowed by the Law.

Every debenture or security created by the Company may be framed so that it shall be assignable free from any equities between the Company and the original or any intermediate holders.
Assignment to trustees:	46	The Directors may, for the purposes of securing the payment of any debentures, bonds or other securities or the payment with interest of any borrowed moneys or moneys payable under any contract whatsoever or otherwise howsoever, make and carry into effect any arrangement which they may deem expedient by assigning or conveying any property of the Company (including uncalled capital) to trustees.
Conditions of issue of debentures etc:	47	Any bonds, debentures, or other securities may be issued at a discount or premium or otherwise and with or without the right of or obligation on the holders thereof to exchange them in whole or in part for shares in the Company at a certain or uncertain time or with any special privilege as to redemption, surrender, drawings, allotment of shares, attending and voting at general meetings of the Company, appointment of Directors and otherwise and generally with such rights and options and upon such conditions in all respects as the Directors shall think fit.
Power to authorise debenture holders etc to collect calls in certain circumstances:	48	If any uncalled capital of the Company is included in or charged by any debenture, mortgage or other security, the Directors may by instrument, authorise the person in whose favour the debenture, mortgage or other security is executed or any person in trust for him, to make calls on the members in respect of the uncalled capital and to sue in the name of the Company or otherwise for the recovery of moneys becoming due in respect of calls so made and to give valid receipts for such moneys, and the authority shall subsist during the continuance of the debenture, mortgage or other security, notwithstanding any change in the Directors, and shall be assignable if expressed to be.
		GENERAL MEETINGS
	49	The Board may convene general meetings of the Company to be held at the times and places and in the manner determined

		by the Board. No shareholder or individual Director may convene a general meeting of the Company except where entitled under the Law to do so.
	50	By resolution of the Board any general meeting may be cancelled or postponed prior to the date on which it is to be held, except where the cancellation or postponement would be contrary to the Law. The Board may give notice (if any) of the cancellation or postponement as it thinks fit but any failure to give such notice does not invalidate the cancellation or postponement or any resolution passed at a postponed meeting.
	51	Subject to the Law, notice of a general meeting that has been convened by the Board may be given in the form and in the manner in which the Board thinks fit.
Omission to give and non-receipt of notice:	52	Non-receipt of a notice of a general meeting by, or the accidental omission to give notice to, any person entitled to notice of that general meeting shall not invalidate any resolution passed at that meeting.
	PROCEEDINGS AT MEETINGS
Quorum:	53	If there is only one member the quorum for a general meeting shall be one member present in person, or by proxy or attorney or by representative. If there is more than one member, the quorum for a general meeting shall be two members present in person, or by proxy or attorney or by representative.

Upon the conclusion of the item of business the Acting Chairman shall withdraw and the Chairman shall again take the chair. (b)    The Chairman shall be responsible for the general conduct of meetings of the Company and for the procedures to be adopted. The Chairman of any general meeting may at any time he considers it necessary or desirable for the proper and orderly conduct of the meeting demand the cessation of debate or discussion on any business, question, motion or resolution being considered by the meeting and require the business, question, motion or resolution to be put to a vote of the members present in which case a vote shall be taken on the business, question, motion or resolution without further debate or discussion by the members present. The Chairman may require the adoption of such procedures as in his opinion are necessary or desirable for the proper and orderly casting or recording of votes at any general meeting of the Company whether on a show of hands or on a poll.
Adjournment:	56	The Chairman of a general meeting or of an adjournment thereof may at any time during the course of the meeting adjourn from time to time and place to place the meeting or any business, motion, question or resolution being considered or remaining to be considered by the meeting or any debate or discussion and may adjourn any business, motion, question, resolution, debate or discussion either to a later time at the same meeting or to an adjourned meeting. If the Chairman exercises his rights of adjournment of a meeting pursuant to this Rule it shall be in the Chairman’s sole discretion to decide whether to seek the approval of the members present to the adjournment and, unless otherwise required by the Chairman, no vote shall be taken by the members present in respect of the adjournment.

14

Voting: Chairman’s casting vote:	57	Every question submitted to a general meeting shall be decided in the first instance by a show of hands of the members present and entitled to vote. In the case of an equality of votes, the Chairman shall, both on a show of hands and at a poll, have a casting vote in addition to the vote or votes to which he may be entitled as a member or proxy.
Demand for poll: Declaration of vote on show of hands:	58	At any general meeting unless a poll is (before or upon the declaration of the result of a show of hands) demanded by the Chairman or by a member or members in accordance with the Law, a declaration by the Chairman that a resolution has been passed or lost, having regard to the majority required, and an entry to that effect in the book to be kept of the proceedings of the Company, signed by the Chairman of that or the next succeeding meeting, shall be conclusive evidence of the fact, without proof of the number or proportion of the votes recorded in favour of or against the resolution.
