part. A person upon whom a call is made shall remain liable for
calls made upon him notwithstanding the subsequent transfer of the

having been made.

to pay all calls and other moneys due in respect thereof.

day appointed for payment thereof the person from whom the sum is
due shall pay interest upon the sum at a rate fixed by the Directors
from the day appointed for the payment thereof to the time of the
actual payment but the Directors shall be at liberty to waive the
payment of that interest wholly or in part.
(5) Any sum or premium which by the terms of allotment of a share is
made payable upon allotment or at any fixed date shall for all the

articles as to payment of interest and expenses forfeiture and the
like and all other relevant provisions of these articles shall apply

issue of a share becomes payable at a fixed time whether on account
of the amount of the share or by way of premium as if the same had
become payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified.
(7) The Company may if the Directors think fit receive from any member
willing to advance the same all or any part of the money uncalled
and unpaid upon any shares held by him and upon all or any of the
moneys so advanced may (until the same would but for such advance
become presently payable) pay interest at such rate (not exceeding
without the sanction of the Company in general meeting ten per
centum per annum) as may be agreed upon between the member paying
the sum in advance and the Directors.
7. TRANSFER AND TRANSMISSION OF SHARES
(1) Save as otherwise permitted under the provisions of the Law all
transfers of shares shall be effected using an instrument of
transfer. The instrument of transfer of any fully paid share shall

alone and in the case of any partly paid share the instrument of

until the name of the transferee is entered in the Register in
respect thereof.

usual common form or any form approved by the Directors and shall
specify the full name and address of the transferee.

any transfer of any share (whether fully paid or not). Without
prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, the Directors may
refuse to register a transfer unless the instrument of transfer:
(a) is lodged at the office or at such other place as the
Directors may appoint and is accompanied by the certificate
for the shares to which it relates and such other evidence as
the Directors may reasonably require to show the right of the
transferor to make the transfer; and
(b) is in respect of only one class of shares.
(4) If the Directors refuse to register any transfer of any share they
shall give notice thereof to the proposed transferor and transferee
within two months after the date on which the instrument of transfer
of such share is lodged with the Company.
(5) The registration of transfers of shares or of transfers of any class
of shares may be suspended at such times and for such periods as the
Directors may determine.
(6) No fee shall be charged for the registration of any instrument of
transfer or other document relating to or affecting the title to any
share.

of any share which is registered, but any instrument of transfer of
any share which the Directors refuse to register shall be returned
to the person lodging it when notice of the refusal is given.
(8) If a member dies, the survivor or survivors, where the deceased was
a joint holder, and the executors, administrators or other legal
personal representatives of the deceased, where the deceased was a
sole or only surviving holder, shall be the only persons recognised
by the Company as having any title to the interest of the deceased<
in the shares; but nothing herein contained shall release the estate
of a deceased member from any liability in respect of any share
which had been jointly held by him.
(9) A minor or an interdict may not become a member of the Company
unless the shares were transmitted to him on the death of the holder
thereof.
(10) Any guardian of a minor member and any curator appointed by the
Royal Court or other person appointed by a court of competent
jurisdiction to administer to the affairs of any member of unsound
mind, and any person becoming entitled to a share in consequence of
the death or bankruptcy of a member may, upon such evidence being
produced as the Directors may properly require, elect either to
become the registered holder of the share or to have some person
nominated by him registered as the holder thereof. If he elects to
become the holder he shall give notice to the Company to that
effect. If he elects to have another person registered he shall
execute an instrument of transfer of the share to that person. All
the limitations restrictions and provisions of these articles
relating to the transfer of shares shall apply to the notice or
instrument of transfer as if it were an instrument of transfer
executed by the member and as if the member had been a person of
full age or not of unsound mind or as if the death or bankruptcy of
the member had not occurred.
5
(11) A person becoming entitled to a share in consequence of the death or
bankruptcy of a member shall have the rights to which he would be
entitled if he were the registered holder of the share, except that
he shall not, before being registered as the holder thereof, be
entitled in respect of the share to vote at any meeting of the
Company or at any separate meeting of the holders of any class of
shares in the Company.
8. FORFEITURE OF SHARES
(1) If a member fails to pay any call or instalment of a call on the day
appointed for payment thereof the Company may at any time thereafter
during such time as any part of such call or instalment remains
unpaid serve a notice on him requiring payment of so much of the
call or instalment as is unpaid together with any interest which may
have accrued and any expenses that may have been incurred by reason
of such non-payment.
(2) The notice shall name a further day (not earlier than the expiration
of fourteen days from the date of the notice) on or before which the
payment required by the notice is to be made and shall state that in
the event of non-payment at or before the time and at the place
appointed the shares in respect of which the call or instalment is
unpaid will be liable to be forfeited.
(3) If the requirements of any such notice as aforesaid are not complied
with any share in respect of which the notice has been given may at
any time thereafter before the payment required by the notice has
been made be forfeited by a resolution of the Directors to that
effect.
(4) Any share forfeited shall become the property of the Company and may
be re-allotted sold or otherwise disposed of on such terms and in
such manner as the Directors think fit and notwithstanding any such
forfeiture as aforesaid the Directors may at any time before the
forfeited share has been disposed of permit the share so forfeited
to be redeemed upon the terms of payment of all calls and interest
due upon and expenses incurred in respect of the share and upon such
further terms (if any) as they shall think fit. The Directors may if
necessary authorise some person to transfer a forfeited share to the
purchaser thereof.
(5) A record in the minute book of the Company to the effect that a
share has been duly forfeited in pursuance of these articles and
stating the time when it was forfeited shall as against all persons
claiming to be entitled to the share adversely to the forfeiture
thereof be conclusive evidence of the facts therein stated and such
record together with a certificate of proprietorship of the share
under the Seal (or whether the Company has no Seal signed or other
executed by any Director or the Secretary) delivered to the
purchaser or allottee thereof shall constitute a good title to the
share and the new holder thereof shall be discharged from all calls
made prior to such purchase or allotment and shall not be bound to
see to the application of the purchase money nor shall his title to
the share be affected by any past omission or irregularity relating
to or connected with the proceedings in reference to the forfeiture
re-allotment sale or other disposal of the share.
(6) A person whose shares have been forfeited shall cease to be a member
in respect of the forfeited shares but shall notwithstanding remain
liable to pay to the Company all moneys which at the date of the
forfeiture were presently payable to the Company by him in respect
of the shares.
(7) The provisions of these articles as to forfeiture shall apply in the
case of non-payment of any sum which by the terms of issue of a
share becomes payable at a fixed time whether
6
on account of the amount of the share or by way of premium as if the
same had been payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified.

at the meeting. If at any time there are not within the Island of
Jersey sufficient Directors capable of acting to form a quorum any
Director or any member of the Company may convene an Extraordinary
General Meeting in the same manner as nearly as possible as that in

consent of all the members for the time being entitled to be present

convened on a shorter notice than twenty-one days and in the case of
any other general meeting with the consent of a majority in number

the case of a meeting at which a resolution will be proposed as a

to business. Two persons entitled to vote upon the business to be
transacted, each being a member or a proxy for a member or a duly

provided that if at any time all of the issued shares in the Company
are held by or by a nominee for a
7
holding company, such single member present in person by duly
authorised representative of a body corporate or by proxy shall
constitute a quorum.
(4) Any member may participate in a general meeting by means of a

or more notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given as in the
case of an original meeting. Save as aforesaid it shall not be
necessary to give any notice of an adjournment or of the business to
be transacted at an adjourned meeting.
(9) At any general meeting a resolution put to the vote of the meeting
shall be decided on a show of hands unless a poll is (before or on
the declaration of the result of the show of hands) decided upon by
the chairman or demanded by at least five members having the right
to vote on the question or by any member or members representing at
least one-tenth of the total voting rights of all members having a
right to vote on the question and unless a poll is so demanded a
declaration by the chairman that a resolution has on a show of hands
been carried or carried unanimously or by a particular majority or
lost and an entry to that effect in the minutes of the proceedings
of the meeting shall be conclusive evidence of the fact without
proof of the number or proportion of the votes recorded in favour of
or against such resolution.
(10) A resolution in writing signed by all the members of the Company for
the time being entitled to receive notice of and to attend and vote
at general meetings or their duly appointed attorneys shall be as
valid and effectual as if it had been passed at a meeting of the
members duly convened and held. Any such resolution may consist of
several documents in the like form signed by one or more of the
members or their attorneys and signature in the case of a corporate
body which is a member shall be sufficient if made by a director
thereof or its duly appointed attorney.
(11) If at any time the Company has only one member, a decision of such
single member of which a record in writing is provided to the
Company in accordance with Article 95A of the Law shall be as valid
and effectual as if it had been agreed by the Company in general
meeting.
8

at a meeting of the Directors or (as the case may be) at a meeting
of such a committee duly convened and held and may consist of
several documents in the like form each signed by one or more
Directors or (as the case may be) committee members.

travelling and other expenses properly and necessarily expended by
them in attending meetings of the Directors (or of committees
appointed pursuant to article 18 (6) hereof) or members or otherwise
on the affairs of the Company. They shall also be paid by way of
remuneration for their services such sum as the Directors shall
determine subject to any rates or limits (if any) fixed by the
Company in general meeting. If any of the Directors shall be
appointed agent or to perform extra services or to make any special
exertions or to go or reside abroad for any of the purposes of the
Company the Directors may remunerate such Director therefor either
by a fixed sum or by commission or participation in profits or
otherwise or partly in one way and partly in another as they think
fit. Such remuneration may be either in addition to or substitution
for his remuneration hereinbefore provided.

otherwise interested in any company promoted by the Company or in
which the Company may be interested as member or otherwise and no
such Director shall be accountable to the Company for any
remuneration or other benefits received by him as a director or
officer of or from his interests in such other company unless the
Company otherwise directs.
(2) No Director shall be disqualified by his office from contracting
with the Company either as vendor purchaser or otherwise nor subject
to the provisions of the Law and article 19 (3) hereof shall any
such contract or any contract or arrangement entered into by or on
behalf of the Company in which any Director shall be in any way
interested be avoided or liable to be set aside.
(3) A Director who has directly or indirectly an interest in a
transaction entered into or proposed to be entered into by the
Company or by a subsidiary of the Company which to a material extent
conflicts or may conflict with the interests of the Company and of
which he has actual knowledge shall disclose to the Company (by
notice to the Directors) the nature and extent of his interest.
Subject thereto any such Director shall not be liable to account to
the Company for any profit or gain realised by him on such
transaction.
(4) A notice in writing given to the Company by a Director that he is to
be regarded as interested in a transaction with a specified person
is sufficient disclosure of his interest in any such transaction
entered into after the notice is given.

any such transaction and if he does so vote his vote shall be
counted and he shall be capable of being counted towards the quorum

Law.

subject to such conditions as they may think fit and any Secretary so

14
22. DIVIDENDS AND RESERVE
(1) The Company in general meeting may declare dividends but no dividend
shall exceed the amount recommended by the Directors in accordance
with the respective rights of the members and the declaration of the
Directors as to the amount of the profits shall be conclusive.
(2) The Directors may from time to time pay to the members such interim
dividends as appear to the Directors to be justified by the profits
of the Company. If the share capital is divided into different
classes, the Directors may pay interim dividends on shares which
confer deferred or non-preferred rights with regard to dividend as
well as on shares which confer preferential rights with regard to
dividend, but no interim dividend shall be paid on shares carrying
deferred or non-preferred rights if, at the time of payment, any
preferential dividend is in arrear. The Directors may also pay at
intervals settled by them any dividend payable at a fixed rate if it
appears to them that the profits available for distribution justify
the payment. Provided the Directors act in good faith, they shall
not incur any liability to the holders of shares conferring
preferred rights for any loss they may suffer by the lawful payment
of an interim dividend on any shares having deferred or
non-preferred rights.
(3) No dividend shall be paid otherwise than out of profits and in
accordance with the provisions of Article 114 of the Law.

any shares in the capital of the Company having preferential
deferred or other special rights in regard to dividends the profits
of the Company which it shall from time to time be determined to
distribute by way of dividend shall be applied in payment of
dividends upon the shares of the Company in proportion to the
amounts paid up thereon respectively otherwise than in advance of
calls.
(5) All dividends shall be apportioned and paid pro rata according to
the amounts paid up on the shares during any portion or portions of
the period in respect of which the dividend is paid except that if
any share is issued on terms providing that it shall rank for
dividend as if paid up (in whole or in part) as from a particular
date (either past or future) such share shall rank for dividend
accordingly.
(6) The Directors may before recommending any dividend set aside out of
the profits of the Company such sums as they think proper as a
reserve or reserves which shall at their discretion be applicable
for any purpose to which the profits of the Company may be properly
applied and pending such application may at the like discretion
either be employed in the business of the Company or be invested in
such investments as the Directors may from time to time think fit.
The Directors may also without placing the same to reserve carry
forward any profits which they may think prudent not to divide.
(7) The Directors may deduct from any dividend payable to any member all
such sums of money (if any) as may be due and payable by him to the
Company on account of calls or otherwise.
(8) If several persons are registered as joint holders of any share any
one of them may give effectual receipts for any dividend payable on
the share.
(9) Notice of any dividend that may have been declared shall be given in
manner hereinafter mentioned to the person entitled to share
therein.
15
(10) No dividend shall bear interest against the Company.
(11) Unless otherwise directed any dividend may be paid by cheque or
warrant sent through the post to the registered address of the
member entitled or in the case of joint holders to that one whose
name stands first on the Register in respect of their joint holding
and every cheque or warrant so sent shall be made payable to the
order of the person to whom it is sent and the Company shall not be
responsible for any loss in transmission and payment by cheque or
warrant as provided herein shall be a good discharge to the Company.
23. CAPITALISATION OF RESERVES ETC.
Subject to any necessary sanction or authority being obtained the Company
in general meeting may at any time and from time to time pass a resolution
that any sum not required for the payment or provision of a fixed dividend
with or without further participation in profits and (a) for the time
being standing to the credit of any reserve fund of the Company including
premiums received on the issue of any shares or debentures of the Company
or (b) being undivided profits in the hands of the Company be capitalised
and that such sum be appropriated as capital to and amongst the members in
the shares and proportions in which they would have been entitled thereto
if the same had been distributed by way of dividend and in such manner as
the resolution may direct and the Directors shall in accordance with such
resolution apply such sum in paying up in full or in part (where permitted
by the Law) any unissued shares or debentures of the Company on behalf of
such members and appropriate such shares or debentures to and distribute
the same credited as fully paid up or partly paid up (where permitted by
the Law) amongst them in the proportions aforesaid in satisfaction of
their shares and interests in the said capitalised sum or shall apply such
sum or any part thereof on behalf of such members in paying up the whole
or part of any uncalled balance which shall for the time being be unpaid
in respect of any issued shares or debentures held by them. Where any
difficulty arises in respect of any such distribution the Directors may
settle the same as they think expedient and in particular they may fix the
value for distribution of any fully paid up shares or debentures make cash
payments to any members on the footing of the value so fixed in order to
adjust rights and vest any such shares or debentures in trustees upon such
trusts for or for the benefit of the persons entitled to share in the
appropriation and distribution as may seem just and expedient to the
Directors.

loss account beginning at the end of the period covered by the most
recent account or (c) if the Company has not prepared such an
account for a period ending within twelve months before the entry
into force of Article 104 of the Law beginning on a date to be
determined by the Directors not later than the date of entry into
force of Article
16

accepted accounting principles and show a true and fair view of the
profit or loss of the Company for the period and of the state of the
Company's affairs at the end of the period and comply with any other
requirements of the Law.
