Resolution 9
That the directors are authorised generally and without conditions
under Section 80 of the Companies Act 1985 ('1985 Act') to allot
relevant securities:
(a) up to an amount of £127 million;
(b) comprising equity securities up to a further amount of £127
million in connection with a rights issue.
These authorities supersede any previous ones under Section 80 of the
1985 Act and expire at the end of the next AGM. The Board can make
offers, or enter into agreements which would, or might, need relevant
securities to be allotted after that expiry. In this Resolution
'relevant securities' and 'equity securities' are as defined in the
1985 Act; 'amounts' refer to the face value (which is the nominal
value) of the relevant securities; and 'rights issue' is as defined in
Article 74 of
the Company's articles of association.

Resolution 10
That subject to the passing of Resolution 9, the directors have power
to allot equity securities (within the meaning of Section 94 of the
1985 Act) entirely paid for in cash
(a) under the authority given by paragraph (a) of
Resolution 9:
in connection with a pre-emptive offer; except in connection with a
pre-emptive offer, up to an aggregate nominal amount of
£20 million; and
(b) under the authority given by paragraph (b) of Resolution 9 in
connection with a rights issue as if Section 89(1) of the 1985 Act did
not apply to any such allotment. This power expires at the end of the
next AGM but the Board can make offers, or enter into agreements which
would, or might, need equity securities to be allotted after that
expiry. In this Resolution all the words defined in Resolution 9 have
the same meaning and:
'pre-emptive offer' means an offer of equity securities open for a
period fixed by the Board to holders (other than the Company) of
ordinary shares in proportion to their holdings, subject to the limits
or
restrictions which the directors think are necessary;
references to an allotment of equity securities include a sale of
treasury shares; and
in working out any maximum amounts of securities, the face value of
rights to subscribe for shares, or to convert any securities into
shares, will be taken as the face value of the shares which would be
allotted if the subscription or conversion takes place.

of 5p each in the Company, subject to the following
conditions:
(a) the maximum number of shares which may be purchased is 774 million
shares;
(b) the minimum price (excluding expenses) which may be paid for each
share is 5p;
(c) the maximum price (excluding expenses) which the Company may pay

(i) 105% of the average market value of a share in the Company for the
five business days prior to the day the purchase is made; and
(ii) the value of a share in the Company calculated on the basis of the
higher of the price quoted for: (a) the last independent trade of; or
(b) the highest current independent bid for, any number of shares in
the Company on the trading venues where the purchase is carried out;
and
(d) this authority will expire at the end of the next AGM of the
Company held in 2010, or if earlier, 14 October 2010, except in
relation to the purchase of shares, the contract for which was
concluded before the expiry of this authority and which might be
