Directors' shares vested in the EBT

On 20 June 2013 certain awards under the Company's long term incentive plan came to their third anniversary. On the third anniversary the beneficiary of the award has the right to exercise his or her option and receive delivery of the ordinary shares or carry them forward in the Company's Employee Benefit Trust (EBT). Tee Kiam Poon and Li Ching, two directors of the Company, were on this date unable to exercise their option as the Company was in a close period. The Company now being in an open period, they have decided to exercise their options.

The following table details the individual ordinary share interest movements as a result of these decisions made today.
