Such Receipts shall be executed and dated by the Depositary by the manual signature of a duly authorized officer of the Depositary; provided, however, that such signature may be a facsimile if a Registrar for the Receipts shall have been appointed and such Receipts are countersigned by the manual signature of a duly authorized officer of the Registrar and dated by such officer.

The Depositary shall maintain books in which each Receipt so executed and delivered as hereinafter provided and the transfer of each such Receipt shall be registered. Receipts bearing the facsimile signature of a duly authorized officer of the Depositary, who was at any time a proper officer of the Depositary, shall bind the Depositary, notwithstanding the fact that such officer has ceased to hold such office prior to the execution of such Receipts by the Registrar and their delivery or such officer did not hold such office at the date of such Receipts.

Section 4.1 Power of Attorney. Each Holder upon acceptance of a Receipt issued in accordance with the terms hereof, thereby appoints the Depositary its agent, with power to delegate, to act on its behalf and to take any and all steps or action provided for or contemplated herein with respect to the Deposited Securities, including but not limited to those set forth in Article IV, and to take such further steps or action as the Depositary in its sole discretion may deem necessary or appropriate to carry out the purposes of this Deposit Agreement.

Section 4.2 Cash Distributions; Withholding. Whenever the Custodian shall receive any cash dividend or other cash distribution by the Company on any Deposited Securities, the Custodian shall, subject to the provisions of Section 4.06, convert such dividend or distribution into dollars and shall remit the amount thus received to the Depositary which shall distribute such amount to the Holders of Receipts entitled thereto in proportion to the number of American Depositary Shares representing such Deposited Securities held by them respectively; provided, however, that in the event that the Company, the Custodian or the Depositary shall be required to withhold and does withhold from any cash dividend or other cash distribution in respect of any Deposited Securities an amount on account of taxes, the amount distributed to the Holder of Receipts for American Depositary Shares representing such Deposited Securities shall be reduced accordingly.

The Depositary will promptly forward to the Company or its agent such information from its records as the Company way reasonably request to enable the Company or its agent to file necessary reports with governmental authorities or agencies.

-8-

Section 4.3 Distributions Other Than Cash or Ordinary Shares. Whenever the Custodian shall receive any distribution other than cash or Ordinary Shares upon any Deposited Securities, the Depositary shall cause the securities or property received by the Custodian to be distributed to the Holders of Receipts entitled thereto, in proportion to the number of American Depositary Shares representing such Deposited Securities held by them respectively, in any manner that the Depositary may deem equitable and practicable for accomplishing such distribution; provided, however, that if in the opinion of the Depositary it cannot cause such securities or property to be distributed or such distribution cannot be made proportionately among the Holders of Receipts entitled thereto, or if for any other reason (including any requirement that the Company or the Depositary withhold an amount on account of taxes) the Depositary deems such distribution not to be feasible, the Depositary may adopt such lawful method as it may deem equitable and practicable for the purpose of effecting such distribution, including the, sale (at public or private sale) of the securities or property thus received, or any part thereof, and the net proceeds of any such sale shall be distributed by the Depositary to the Holders of Receipts entitled thereto as in the case of a distribution received in cash.

Section 4.4 Distributions in Ordinary Shares. If any distribution upon any Deposited Securities consists of a dividend in, or free distribution of, Ordinary Shares, the Depositary may, with the Company’s approval, and shall, if the Company shall so request, distribute to the Holders of outstanding Receipts entitled thereto, in proportion to the number of American Depositary Shares representing such Deposited Securities held by them respectively, additional Receipts for an aggregate number of American Depositary Shares representing the number of Ordinary Shares received as such dividend or free distribution. In lieu of delivering Receipts for fractional American Depositary Shares in any such case, the Depositary shall sell the number of Ordinary Shares represented by the aggregate of such fractions and distribute the net proceeds, all in the manner and subject to the conditions described in Section 4.02. If additional Receipts are not so distributed (except as pursuant to the preceding sentence), each American Depositary Share shall thenceforth also represent the additional Ordinary Shares distributed upon the Deposited Securities represented thereby.

Section 4.5 Rights. 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 Ordinary Shares or any rights of any other nature, the Depositary shall have discretion as to the procedure to be followed in making such rights available to the Holders of Receipts 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:

(i)

if at the time of the offering of any rights the Depositary determines that it is lawful and feasible to make such rights available to Holders of Receipts by means of warrants or otherwise, the Depositary shall distribute warrants or other instruments therefor in such form as it may determine to the Holders entitled thereto, in proportion to the number of American Depositary Shares representing such Deposited Securities held by them respectively, or employ such other method as it may deem feasible in order to facilitate the exercise, sale or transfer of rights by such Holders; or

-9-

(ii)

if at the time of the offering of any rights the Depositary determines that it is not lawful or not feasible to make such rights available to Holders of Receipts by means of warrants or otherwise, or if the rights represented by such warrants or such other instruments are not exercised and appear to be about to lapse, the Depositary in its discretion may sell such rights or such warrants or other instruments at public or private sale, at such place or places and upon such terms as it may deem proper, and allocate the proceeds of such sales for account of the Holders of Receipts otherwise entitled to such rights, warrants or other instruments upon an averaged or other practicable basis without regard to any distinctions among such Holders because of exchange restrictions or the date of delivery of any Receipt or Receipts, or otherwise.

If registration under the Securities Act of 1933 of the securities to which any rights relate is required in order for the company to offer such rights to Holders of Receipts and to sell the represented by such rights, the Depositary will not offer such rights to the Holders of Receipts unless and until an appropriate registration statement under such Act is in effect, or unless the offering and sale of such securities to the Holders of such Receipts are exempt from registration under the provisions of such Act.

Section 4.6 Conversion of Foreign Currency. Whenever the Depositary shall receive foreign currency, by way of dividends or other distributions or the net proceeds from the sale of securities, property or rights, and if at the time of the receipt thereof the foreign currency so received can in the judgment of the Depositary be converted on a reasonable basis into dollars distributable to the Holders of the Receipts entitled thereto and the resulting dollars transferred to the United States, the Depositary shall convert or cause to be converted, by sale or in any other manner that it may determine, such foreign currency into dollars, and such dollars (less any reasonable and customary expenses incurred by the Depositary in the conversion of the foreign currency) shall be distributed to the Holders of Receipts entitled thereto or, if the Depositary shall have distributed any warrants or other instruments which entitle the holders thereof to such dollars, then to the holders of such warrants and/or instruments upon surrender thereof for cancellation. Such distribution may be made upon an averaged or other practicable basis without regard to any distinctions among Holders on account of any application of exchange restrictions or otherwise.

If such conversion with regard to a particular Holder or distribution can be effected only with the approval or license of any government or agency thereof, the Depositary shall file such application for approval or license, if any, as it may deem desirable.

-10-

If at any time the Depositary shall determine that in its judgment any foreign currency received by the Depositary is not convertible on a reasonable basis into dollars distributable to the Holders of Receipts entitled thereto, or if any approval or license of any government or authority or agency thereof which is required for such conversion is denied or in the opinion of the Depositary is not obtainable, or if any such approval or license is not obtained within a reasonable period as determined by the Depositary, the Depositary may distribute the foreign currency (or an appropriate document evidencing the right to receive such foreign currency) received by the Depositary to, or in its discretion may hold such foreign currency for the respective accounts of, the Holders of Receipts entitled to receive the same.

SUMMARY OF CERTAIN ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS

OF THE DEPOSIT AGREEMENT

(11) Dividends and Distributions; Rights. Whenever the Depositary shall receive any cash dividend or other cash distribution on the Deposited Securities, the Depositary will, if at the time of receipt thereof any amounts received in a foreign currency can in the judgment of the Depositary be converted on a reasonable basis into United States dollars distributable to the Holders of Receipts entitled thereto and, subject to the provisions of the Deposit Agreement, convert such dividend or distribution into United States dollars and will distribute the amount thus received (less any reasonable expenses incurred by the Depositary in converting such foreign currency) to the Holders of Receipts entitled thereto, in proportion to the number of American Depositary Shares representing such Deposited Securities held by them respectively; provided, however, that the amount distributed will be reduced by any amounts required to be withheld by the Company or the Depositary in respect of taxes. If in the judgment of the Depositary amounts received in foreign currency may not be converted on a reasonable basis into United States dollars distributable to the Holders of Receipts entitled thereto, or may not be so convertible for all of the Holders of Receipts entitled thereto, the Depositary may in its discretion make such conversion, if any, and distribution in United States dollars to the extent permissible to the Holders of Receipts entitled thereto and may distribute the balance of the foreign currency received and not so convertible by the Depositary to, or hold such balance for the account of, the Holders of Receipts entitled thereto. If in the opinion of the Depositary any distribution other than cash or Ordinary Shares upon any Deposited Securities cannot be made proportionately among the Holders of Receipts entitled thereto, or if for any other reason the Depositary deems such distribution not to be feasible, the Depositary may adopt such lawful method as it may deem equitable for the purpose of effecting such distribution, including the sale (at public or private sale) of the securities or property thus received, or any part thereof, and the net proceeds of any such sale will be distributed by the Depositary to the Holders of Receipts entitled thereto as in the case of a distribution received in cash. If any distribution upon any Deposited Securities consists of a dividend in, of free distribution of, Ordinary Shares, the Depositary may with the Company’s approval, and shall if the Company shall so request, distribute to the Holders of outstanding Receipts entitled thereto, in proportion to the number of American Depositary Shares representing such Deposited Securities held by them respectively, additional Receipts for an aggregate number of American Depositary Shares representing the number of Ordinary Shares received as such dividend or free distribution. In lieu of delivering Receipts for fractional American Depositary Shares in any such case, the Depositary will sell the number of Ordinary Shares represented by the aggregate of such fractions and distribute the net proceeds, converted into United States dollars if not in such dollars (if such conversion may in the judgment of the Depositary be achieved on a reasonable basis), to the Holders of Receipts entitled thereto. If additional Receipts are not so distributed (except as pursuant to the preceding sentence), each American Depositary Share shall thenceforth also represent the additional Ordinary Shares distributed upon the Deposited Securities represented thereby. 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 Ordinary Shares or any rights of any other nature, the Depositary will have discretion as to whether such rights are to be made available to the Holders of Receipts; provided, however, that the Depositary will, if requested by the Company, either (a) make such rights available to Holders of Receipts by means of warrants or otherwise, if lawful and feasible, or (b) if making such rights available is not lawful or not feasible, or if the rights represented by such warrants or other instruments are not exercised and appear to be about to lapse, sell such rights or warrants or other instruments at public or private sale, at such place or places and upon such terms as the Depositary may deem proper, and allocate the proceeds of such sales for account of the Holders of Receipts otherwise entitled thereto upon an averaged or other practicable basis without regard to any distinctions among such Holders because of exchange restrictions or the date of delivery of any Receipt or Receipts, or otherwise.

(12) Record Dates. Whenever any cash dividend or other cash distribution shall become payable or any distribution other than cash shall be made, or whenever rights shall be issued, with respect to the Deposited Securities, or whenever the Depositary shall receive notice of any meeting of holders of Ordinary Shares or other Deposited Securities, the Depositary will fix a record date for the determination of the Holders of Receipts who will be entitled to receive such dividend, distribution or rights, or the net proceeds of the sale thereof, or to give instructions for the exercise of voting rights at any such meeting, subject to the provisions of the Deposit Agreement.

(13) Voting of Deposited Securities. Upon receipt of notice of any meeting of holders of Ordinary Shares, the Depositary shall, as soon as practicable after fixing a record date for determining the record Holders entitled to give instructions for the exercise of voting rights, mail to the Holders of Receipts a notice which shall contain: (a) such information as is contained in such notice of meeting, (b) a statement that the Holders of Receipts at the close of business on a specified record date will be entitled to instruct the Depositary as to the exercise of voting rights, if any, pertaining to the Deposited Securities evidenced by their respective American Depositary Shares, and (c) a brief statement as to the manner in which such instructions may be given. Upon the written request of a Holder of a Receipt on such record date, received on or before the date established by the Depositary for such purpose, the Depositary will endeavor insofar as practicable to vote or cause to be voted the Deposited Securities evidenced by such Receipt in accordance with such instructions. The Depositary agrees not to vote the Ordinary Shares or other Deposited Securities evidenced by a Receipt unless it receives instructions from the Holder of such Receipts.

(14) Changes Affecting Deposited Securities. Upon any change in par value, split-up, consolidation or, any other reclassification of Deposited Securities, or upon any recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation or sale of assets affecting the Company or to which it is a party, any securities which shall be received by the Depositary in exchange for or in conversion of or in respect of Deposited Securities shall be treated as new Deposited Securities under the Deposit Agreement, and American Depositary Shares shall thenceforth represent the new Deposited Securities so received in exchange or conversion, unless additional or new Receipts are delivered pursuant to the following sentence. In any such case the Depositary may with the Company’s approval, and shall if the Company shall so request, execute and deliver additional Receipts as in the case of a stock dividend, or call for the surrender of outstanding Receipts to be exchanged for new Receipts.

A-7

(15) Reports; Inspection of Transfer Books. The Depositary will make available for inspection by Holders of receipts at its Principal Office any reports and communications received, including any proxy soliciting material, from the Company which are both (a) received by the Depositary as the holder of the Deposited Securities, and (b) made generally available to the holders of such Deposited Securities by the Company. The Depositary will also send to Holders of Receipts copies of such reports when furnished by the Company as provided in the Deposit Agreement. The Depositary will keep books for the registration of Receipts and their transfer which at all reasonable times will be open for inspection by the Company and Holders of Receipts, provided that such inspection shall not be for the purpose of communicating with Holders of Receipts in the interest of a business or object other than the business of the Company or a matter related to the Deposit Agreement or the Receipts.

(16) Withholding. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Deposit Agreement, in the event that the Depositary determines that any distribution in property (including Ordinary Shares or rights to subscribe therefor) is subject to any tax which the Depositary is obligated to withhold, the Depositary may dispose of all or a portion of such property (including Ordinary Shares and rights to subscribe therefor) in such amounts and in such manner as the Depositary deems necessary and practicable to pay such taxes, by public or private sale, and the Depositary shall distribute the net proceeds of any such sale after deduction of such taxes to the Holders of Receipts entitled thereto.

(17) Liability of the Company and Depositary. Neither the Depositary nor the Company will incur any liability to any Holder of this Receipt, if by reason of any provision of any present or future law of any country or any other governmental authority, or by reason of any provision, present or future, of the Articles of Association of the Company, or by reason of any act of God or war or other circumstance beyond its control, the Depositary or the Company shall be prevented or forbidden from, or delayed, in doing or performing any act or thing which by the terms of the Deposit Agreement it is provided shall be done or performed. Neither the Company nor the Depositary assumes any obligation or shall be subject to any liability under the Deposit Agreement to Holders of Receipts, except that each of them agrees to use its best judgment and to act in good faith in the performance of such duties as are specifically set forth in the Deposit Agreement. Neither the Depositary nor the Company will be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any action, suit or other proceeding in respect of any Deposited Securities or in respect of the Receipts, which in its opinion may involve it in expense and liability, unless indemnity satisfactory to it against all expense and liability be furnished as often as may be required, and no Custodian will be under any obligation whatsoever with respect to such proceedings, the responsibility of the Custodian being solely to the Depositary. Neither the Depositary nor the Company will be liable for any action or non-action by it in reliance upon the advice of or information from legal counsel, accountants, any person presenting Ordinary Shares for deposit, any Holder of a Receipt, or any other person believed by it in good faith to be competent to give such advice or information. The Depositary will not be responsible for any failure to carry out any instructions to vote any of the Deposited Securities, or for the manner in which any such vote is cast or effect of any such vote, provided that any such action or non-action is in good faith. The Depositary may own and deal in any class of securities of the Company (and its affiliates) and in Receipts. The Company agrees to indemnify the Depositary and each Custodian against, and hold each of them harmless from, any liability or expense which may arise out of acts performed or omitted, in accordance with the provisions of the Deposit Agreement and of the Receipts, as the same may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, (i) by either the Depositary or any Custodian except for any liability or expense arising out of the negligence or bad faith of either of them, or (ii) by the Company or any of its agents.

Every Holder of a Receipt at the time any amendment so becomes effective shall be deemed, by continuing to hold such Receipt, to consent and agree to such amendment and to be bound by the Deposit Agreement as amended thereby.
