Preference Shares) plus such further sums as may be payable pursuant to
Clause 8.02";
(B) Clause 8.2 is hereby deleted and replaced by the following:-
"8.2(a) The Vendor shall on exercise of the Option sell or procure the sale
of the Option Shares and the Purchaser shall purchase the Option Shares,
free from all rights of pre-emption, options, liens, claims, equities,
charges, mortgages, pledges and encumbrances or third party rights of
whatsoever nature and with all rights attached,
accrued or accruing or becoming attached thereto on and after date of such
exercise at the Exercise Price, payable as to the first US$10,000,000

8.2(b) in cash).
8.02(b) In addition to the sum of US$10,000,000 referred to in Clause 8.02,
the Purchaser shall, as part of the Exercise Price, pay to the Vendor an

financial year referred to in the definition of "N" above and (b) does not
declare a dividend of at least 50% thereof, then all dividend(s) declared
after the adoption of its audited accounts for the year in question shall
be deemed declared in respect of that financial year until the Purchaser

of the distributable gains or profits for the relevant year, multiplied by
N/365 attributable to the Option Shares.
