The Depositary shall direct the Custodian with respect to delivery of Deposited Securities and may charge the surrendering Owner a fee and its expenses for giving that direction by cable (including SWIFT) or facsimile transmission. If Deposited Securities are delivered physically upon surrender of American Depositary Shares for the purpose of withdrawal, that delivery will be made at the Custodian’s office, except that, at the request, risk and expense of the surrendering Owner, and for the account of that Owner, the Depositary shall direct the Custodian to forward any cash or other property comprising, and forward a certificate or certificates, if applicable, and other proper documents of title, if any, for, the Deposited Securities represented by the surrendered American Depositary Shares to the Depositary for delivery at the Depositary’s Office or to another address specified in the order received from the surrendering Owner.

Counterparty Share Repurchases Counterparty agrees not to repurchase, directly or indirectly, any Shares if, immediately following such purchase, the Outstanding Share Percentage would be equal to or greater than 4.5%.

Shareholder Account The Transfer Agent shall cause each Sub-transfer Agent to apply the foregoing rule to each Sub-shareholder Account based on the records maintained by such Sub-transfer Agent; provided, that until the Sub-transfer Agent in respect of the ML Omnibus Account develops the data processing capability to conform to the foregoing requirements, such Sub-transfer Agent shall apply the foregoing rules to each Sub-shareholder Account with respect to the Date of Original Purchase of any Commission Share as though each such date were a separate Month of Original Purchase.
