Whenever the Custodian or Depositary shall receive any distribution other than cash, rights or Shares upon any Deposited Securities, the Depositary shall, after consultation with the Company to the extent practicable, and provided that the Depositary shall have received satisfactory documentation within the terms of Section 5.7 of the Deposit Agreement, cause the securities or property received by such Custodian to be distributed to the Holders entitled thereto after deduction or upon payment of the expenses of the Depositary, in proportion to the number of ADSs representing such Deposited Securities held by them respectively, in any manner that the Depositary, with the consent of the Company, deems equitable and practicable for accomplishing such distribution; provided, however, that if in the opinion of the Depositary such distribution cannot be made proportionately among the Holders entitled thereto, or if for any other reason (including but not limited to any requirement that the Company or the Depositary withhold an amount on account of taxes or other governmental charges or that such securities must be registered under the Securities Act in order to be distributed to the Holders) the Depositary deems such distribution not to be reasonably practicable, the Depositary may, with the approval of the Company, adopt such method as it deems equitable and practicable for the purpose of effecting such distribution, including the sale (at public or private sale, at such place or places and upon such terms as it may deem proper) of the securities or property thus received, or any part thereof, and, in such case, the net proceeds of any such sale shall be distributed by the Depositary to the Holders entitled thereto as in the case of a distribution received in cash. Subject to the last sentence of Section 4.4 of the Deposit Agreement, if any distribution upon any Deposited Securities consists of a dividend in, or free distribution of, Shares, the Depositary may, and shall, if the Company so requests, distribute to the Holders of outstanding ADSs entitled thereto, in proportion to the number of ADSs representing such Deposited Securities held by them respectively, additional ADSs representing the number of Shares received as such dividend or free distribution subject to the terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement with respect to the deposit of Shares and the issuance of ADSs, including the withholding of any tax or other governmental charge as provided in Section 4.13 of the Deposit Agreement.

In lieu of issuing fractional ADSs in any such case, the Depositary will sell the number of Shares or ADSs, as the case may be, represented by the aggregate of such fractions and distribute the net proceeds to Holders, all in the manner and subject to the conditions described in Section 4.2 of the Deposit Agreement. If additional ADSs are not so distributed (except as pursuant to the preceding sentence), each ADS shall thenceforth also represent the additional Shares distributed upon the Deposited Securities represented thereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Company in the fulfillment of its obligation under Section 5.7 of the Deposit Agreement has furnished an opinion of U.S. counsel determining that Shares must be registered under the Securities Act or other laws in order to be distributed to Holders (and no such registration has been declared effective), the Depositary may sell such Shares and remit the proceeds thereof to the Holders entitled thereto as in the case of a distribution in cash. In the event that the Company shall offer or cause to be offered to the holders of any Deposited Securities any rights to subscribe for additional Shares or any rights of any other nature, the Depositary, after consultation with the Company, shall have discretion as to the procedure to be followed in making such rights available to the Holders of ADSs or in disposing of such rights on behalf of such Holders and making the net proceeds available in dollars to such Holders; provided, however, that the Depositary will, if requested by the Company, take action as follows:
