Result of Placing of up to 24,589,050 new Ordinary Shares of Talvivaara Mining
Company Plc

Talvivaara Mining Company Plc ("Talvivaara" or the "Company") announces that it
has raised £68.8 million (?83.0 million) before commissions and expenses by the
Placing completed today of 24,589,050 new Ordinary Shares representing
approximately 10 per cent of the number of the existing shares of the Company
(the "Placing") to both new and existing institutional shareholders (the
"Placees") at 280 pence (?3.38) per share (the "Placing Price"). Merrill Lynch
International ("BofA Merrill Lynch") acted as Sole Bookrunner and Joint Lead
Manager and Liberum Capital Limited ("Liberum") and Pohjola Corporate Finance
Ltd. ("Pohjola") acted as Joint Lead Managers in relation to the Placing.

The Placing Shares will be issued credited as fully paid and will rank pari
passu with the existing ordinary shares, including the right to receive all
dividends and other distributions declared in respect of such shares after the
date of issue of the Placing Shares.

The Company will apply for admission of the Placing Shares to the premium
segment of the Official List of the UK Financial Services Authority and to
trading on the main market of the London Stock Exchange and listing on the
Helsinki Stock Exchange (collectively the "Admission"). It is expected that
Admission will take place and that trading will commence on 14 March 2012.

The Placing is conditional upon, inter alia, Admission becoming effective and
upon the passing of the resolution (without amendment) at the EGM scheduled for
12 March 2012. The Placing is also conditional on the placing agreement made
between the Company, BofA Merrill Lynch, Liberum and Pohjola becoming
unconditional and not being terminated. It is anticipated that the settlement
date will be 14 March 2012.

The Company has received irrevocable undertakings from its four largest
shareholders, Pekka Perä, Varma Mutual Pension Insurance Company, Solidium Oy
and Ilmarinen Mutual Pension Insurance Company, to vote in favour of the issue
of the Placing Shares in respect of approximately 111.1 million Talvivaara
Shares in aggregate, representing approximately 45.2 per cent of the existing
issued share capital of Talvivaara.

The Board of Directors of the Company will shortly convene the EGM to resolve
upon the issue of the Placing Shares.

Capitalised terms used, but not defined in this announcement have the same
meanings as set out in the announcement of the Placing made earlier today.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
This Announcement contains (or may contain) certain forward-looking statements
with respect to certain of the Company's plans and its current goals and
expectations relating to its future financial condition and performance and
which involve a number of risks and uncertainties.  The Company cautions readers
that no forward-looking statement is a guarantee of future performance and that
actual results could differ materially from those contained in the forward-
looking statements. These forward-looking statements can be identified by the
fact that they do not relate only to historical or current facts. Forward-
looking statements sometimes use words such as "aim", "anticipate", "target",
"expect", "estimate", "intend", "plan", "goal", "believe", or other words of
similar meaning. Examples of forward-looking statements include, amongst others,
statements regarding or which make assumptions in respect of the future
continued operation of the Group's producing assets, the timing of the
commencement of future production and the sustainability of that production, the
ability of the Group to discover new resources, the prices achievable by the
Group in respect of its production, the costs of exploration, development or
production, future foreign exchange rates, interest rates and currency controls,
the future political and fiscal regimes in the overseas markets in which the
Group operates, the Group's future financial position, plans and objectives for
future operations of the Company and other statements that are not historical
fact. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty
because they relate to future events and circumstances, including, but not
limited to, economic and business conditions, the effects of continued
volatility in credit markets, market-related risks such as changes in the price
of commodities or changes in interest rates and foreign exchange rates, the
policies and actions of governmental and regulatory authorities, changes in
legislation, the further development of standards and interpretations under
International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") applicable to past, current
and future periods, evolving practices with regard to the interpretation and
application of standards under IFRS, the outcome of pending and future
litigation or regulatory investigations, the success of future explorations,
acquisitions and other strategic transactions and the impact of competition. A
number of these factors are beyond the Company's control. As a result, the
Company's actual future results may differ materially from the plans, goals, and
expectations set forth in the Company's forward-looking statements. Given these
risks and uncertainties, prospective investors are cautioned not to place undue
reliance on forward-looking statements which are not guarantees of future
performance. Any forward-looking statements made in this Announcement by or on
behalf of the Company speak only as of the date they are made. Except as
required by the Financial Services Authority (the "FSA"), the FFSA, the London
Stock Exchange, the Helsinki Stock Exchange or applicable law, the Company
expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any
updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements contained in this
Announcement to reflect any changes in the Company's expectations with regard
thereto or any changes in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such
statement is based.
This Announcement is for information purposes only and shall not constitute an
offer to buy, sell, issue, or subscribe for, or the solicitation of an offer to
buy, sell, issue, or subscribe for any securities, nor shall there be any sale
of securities in any jurisdiction (a "Prohibited Jurisdiction") in which such
offer, solicitation or sale is or may be unlawful prior to registration or
qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction, including,
without limitation and subject to certain exceptions, the United States, Canada,
Australia, South Africa and Japan. This Announcement and the information
contained herein are not for publication or distribution, directly or
indirectly, to persons in a Prohibited Jurisdiction unless permitted pursuant to

information made available to or publicly available to any interested party or
its advisers, and any responsibility or liability therefor is expressly
disclaimed.

required. Persons into whose possession this Announcement comes are required by

The price of shares and the income from them (if any) may go down as well as up
and the Placees may not get back the full amount invested on disposal of the

Ordinary Shares have been bought or sold in the past cannot be relied upon as a
guide to future performance.  No statement in this Announcement is intended to
be a profit forecast or profit estimate and no statement in this Announcement
should be interpreted to mean that earnings per share of the Company for the

APPENDIX:  TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE PLACING
IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR PLACEES ONLY REGARDING THE PLACING.
THIS ANNOUNCEMENT, INCLUDING THE APPENDIX AND THE INFORMATION CONTAINED HEREIN
IS RESTRICTED AND IS NOT FOR PUBLICATION, RELEASE OR DISTRIBUTION, DIRECTLY OR
INDIRECTLY, IN OR INTO THE UNITED STATES, AUSTRALIA, CANADA, JAPAN, SOUTH AFRICA
OR ANY JURISDICTION IN WHICH THE SAME WOULD BE UNLAWFUL.
EACH PLACEE SHOULD CONSULT WITH ITS OWN ADVISORS AS TO LEGAL, TAX, BUSINESS AND
RELATED ASPECTS OF A PURCHASE OF THE PLACING SHARES.
Details of the Placing
The Joint Lead Managers have entered into a placing agreement with the Company
(the "Placing Agreement") under which, subject to the conditions set out in the
Placing Agreement, the Joint Lead Managers have agreed to use reasonable
endeavours to procure subscribers for Placing Shares at a price determined
following completion of the bookbuilding process in respect of the Placing (the
"Bookbuild"), described in this Announcement and set out in the Placing
Agreement, and to the extent that any such Placees procured by any of the Joint
Lead Managers, fails to pay for the Placing Shares it had agreed to subscribe
for, the relevant Joint Lead Manager has agreed (itself or through an Affiliate,
as the case may be) to subscribe for such Placing Shares at the agreed price.
The Placing Shares have been duly authorised and will, when issued, be credited
as fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing issued
Ordinary Shares including the right to receive all dividends and other
distributions declared, made or paid in respect of such Ordinary Shares after
the date of issue of the Placing Shares. The Placing Shares will be issued free
of any pre-emption rights, encumbrance, lien or other security interest.
As part of the Placing, the Company has agreed that it will not issue or sell
any Ordinary Shares for a period of 180 days after the Placing Shares have been
issued, without the prior consent of the Joint Lead Managers. This agreement is
subject to customary exceptions and does not, however, prevent the Company from
granting or satisfying exercises of options granted pursuant to the terms of
existing employee share schemes of the Company or issuing Ordinary Shares upon
conversion of the convertible bonds of the Company as disclosed in publicly
available information.  Additionally, the Company's largest shareholder, Pekka
Perä (c. 22.9% shareholder), has confirmed that he does not intend to sell any
Ordinary Shares for a period of 180 days after Admission. This confirmation does
not prevent Pekka Perä from selling options granted to him (and which do not
form part of his existing shareholding) under existing employee share schemes of
the Company as disclosed in publicly available information.
Application for listing and admission to trading
Application will be made to the FSA as competent authority for listing (subject
to the passing of the proposed Resolution at the EGM) for admission of the
Placing Shares to the premium segment of the Official List of the FSA (the
"Official List") and to the London Stock Exchange plc (the "London Stock
Exchange") for admission to trading of the Placing Shares on its main market for
listed securities.  Application will be made to the Helsinki Stock Exchange for
admission (subject to the passing of proposed Resolution at the EGM) of the
Placing Shares on the Helsinki Stock Exchange. It is expected that Admission on
the London Stock Exchange and the Helsinki Stock Exchange will become effective
on or around 14 March 2012 and that dealings in the Placing Shares will commence
at that time.
Bookbuild
The Joint Lead Managers will today commence the Bookbuild to determine demand
for participation in the Placing by Placees. This Appendix gives details of the
terms and conditions of, and the mechanics of participation in, the Placing. No
fees or commissions will be paid to Placees or by Placees in respect of any
Placing Shares.
The Joint Lead Managers and the Company shall be entitled to effect the Placing
by such alternative method to the Bookbuild as they may, in their sole
discretion, determine.
Participation in, and principal terms of, the Placing
1.     BofA Merrill Lynch is acting as sole bookrunner and the Joint Lead
Managers are acting as joint lead managers and agents of the Company.
2.     Participation in the Placing will only be available to persons who may
lawfully be, and are, invited to participate by the Joint Lead Managers. The
Joint Lead Managers and their Affiliates are each entitled to enter bids in the
Bookbuild as principal.
3.     The Bookbuild will establish a single price payable to the Joint Lead
Managers by all Placees whose bids are successful (the "Placing Price"). The
Placing Price and the number of Placing Shares to be issued will be agreed
between the Joint Lead Managers and the Company following completion of the
Bookbuild. Any discount to the market price of the Ordinary Shares will be
determined in accordance with the Listing Rules. The Placing Price and the
number of Placing Shares will be announced on a Regulatory Information Service
and as a stock exchange release pursuant to Finnish Securities Law following the
completion of the Bookbuild.
4.     To bid in the Bookbuild, Placees should communicate their bid by
telephone to their usual sales contact at either of the Joint Lead Managers.
Each bid should state the number of Placing Shares which the prospective Placee
wishes to subscribe for at either the Placing Price, which is ultimately
established by the Company and the Joint Lead Managers, or at prices up to a
price limit specified in its bid. Bids may be scaled down by the Joint Lead
Managers on the basis referred to in paragraph 9 below.  The Joint Lead Managers
reserve the right not to accept bids or to accept bids in part rather than in
whole. The acceptance of bids shall be at each Joint Lead Manager's absolute
discretion.
5.     The Bookbuild is expected to close no later than 4.30 p.m. (London time)
on 16 February 2012 but may be closed earlier or later at the discretion of the
Joint Lead Managers. The Joint Lead Managers may, in agreement with the Company,
accept bids that are received after the Bookbuild has closed. The Company
reserves the right (upon the agreement of the Joint Lead Managers) to reduce or
seek to increase the amount to be raised pursuant to the Placing, in its
absolute discretion.
6.     Each prospective Placee's allocation will be agreed between the Joint
Lead Managers and the Company and will be confirmed orally by one of the Joint
Lead Managers as agent of the Company following the close of the Bookbuild. That
oral confirmation will constitute an irrevocable legally binding commitment upon
that person (who will at that point become a Placee) in favour of the Company
and the Joint Lead Managers to subscribe for the number of Placing Shares
allocated to it at the Placing Price on the terms and conditions set out in this
Appendix and in accordance with the Company's articles of association.
7.     Each prospective Placee's allocation and commitment will be evidenced by
a contract note issued to such Placee by one of the Joint Lead Managers. The
terms of this Appendix will be deemed incorporated in that contract note.
8.     Each Placee will also have an immediate, separate, irrevocable and
binding obligation, owed to the relevant Joint Lead Manager as agent of the
Company to pay in cleared funds, an amount equal to the product of the Placing
Price and the number of Placing Shares such Placee has agreed to subscribe and
the Company has agreed to allot and issue to that Placee.
9.     The Joint Lead Managers may choose to accept bids, either in whole or in
part, on the basis of allocations determined in agreement with the Company and
may scale down any bids for this purpose on such basis as they may determine.
The Joint Lead Managers may also, notwithstanding paragraphs 4 and 5 above,
subject to the prior consent of the Company (i) allocate Placing Shares after
the time of any initial allocation to any person submitting a bid after that
time and (ii) allocate Placing Shares after the Bookbuild has closed to any
person submitting a bid after that time.
10.     A bid in the Bookbuild will be made on the terms and subject to the
conditions in this Announcement and will be legally binding on the Placee on
behalf of which it is made and except with the consent of either of the Joint
Lead Managers will not be capable of variation or revocation after the time at
which it is submitted.
11.     Irrespective of the time at which a Placee's allocation pursuant to the
Placing is confirmed, settlement for all Placing Shares to be subscribed for
pursuant to the Placing will be required to be made at the same time, on the
basis explained below under "Registration and Settlement".
12.     All obligations under the Bookbuild and Placing will be subject to
fulfilment of the conditions referred to below under "Conditions of the Placing"
and to the Placing not being terminated on the basis referred to below under
"Termination of the Placing Agreement".
13.     By participating in the Bookbuild, each Placee will agree that its
rights and obligations in respect of the Placing will terminate only in the
circumstances described below and will not be capable of rescission or
termination by the Placee.
14.     To the fullest extent permissible by law, none of the Joint Lead
Managers nor any of their Affiliates nor any person acting on their behalf shall
have any responsibility or liability to any Placee (or to any other person
whether acting on behalf of a Placee or otherwise). In particular, none of the
Joint Lead Managers nor any of their Affiliates nor any person acting on their
behalf shall have any responsibility or liability (including to the fullest
extent permissible by law, any fiduciary duties) in respect of the Joint Lead
Managers's conduct of the Bookbuild or of such alternative method of effecting
the Placing as the Joint Lead Managers and the Company may agree.
15.                 In addition, certain of the Joint Lead Managers or their
Affiliates may enter into financing arrangements and swaps with investors in
connection with which such Joint Lead Managers (or their Affiliates) may from
time to time acquire, hold or dispose of Ordinary Shares.
Conditions of the Placing
The Placing is conditional upon the Placing Agreement becoming unconditional and
not having been terminated in accordance with its terms. The obligations of the
Joint Lead Managers under the Placing Agreement are conditional on, amongst
other things:
(a)     agreement being reached between the Company and the Joint Lead Managers
on the Placing Price and the number of Placing Shares;
(b)     the representations and warranties contained in the Placing Agreement
being true, accurate and complete on the date of the Placing Agreement and
remaining so at all times down to and including Admission (by reference to the
facts and circumstances then existing);
(c)     the Company complying with its obligations under the Placing Agreement
to the extent the same fall to be performed or satisfied prior to Admission;
(d)     Admission taking place by 8.00 a.m. (London time) on 14 March 2012 (or
such later date as the Joint Lead Managers may otherwise determine);
(e)    in the opinion of BofA Merrill Lynch, acting in good faith, there not
having been and BofA Merrill Lynch not having become aware of a material adverse
change in, or any development involving a prospective material adverse change
in, the condition, financial, operational  or otherwise, or in the management,
prospects, results of operations or business of the Company and its subsidiaries
taken as a whole; and
(f)     the passing of the Resolution (without amendment) at the EGM (and not,
save with the written consent of the Joint Lead Managers, at any adjournment
thereof).
If (i) any of the conditions contained in the Placing Agreement in relation to
the Placing Shares are not fulfilled or, where permitted, waived by BofA Merrill
Lynch, by the respective time or date where specified (or such later time and/or
date as the Company and BofA Merrill Lynch may agree), or (ii) the Placing
Agreement is terminated in the circumstances specified below, the Placing will
not proceed and each Placee's rights and obligations hereunder in relation to
the Placing Shares shall cease and terminate at such time and each Placee agrees
that no claim can be made by the Placee in respect thereof.
BofA Merrill Lynch may, at its discretion and upon such terms as it thinks fit,
extend the time for satisfaction of any condition or waive compliance by the
Company with the whole or any part of any of the Company's obligations in
relation to the conditions in the Placing Agreement save that the condition in
the Placing Agreement relating to Admission taking place may not be waived. Any
such extension or waiver will not affect Placees' commitments as set out in this
Announcement.
None of BofA Merrill Lynch, the Company or any other person shall have any
responsibility or liability to any Placee (or to any other person whether acting
on behalf of a Placee or otherwise) in respect of any decision they may make as
to whether or not to waive or to extend the time and /or the date for the
satisfaction of any condition to the Placing nor for any decision they may make
as to the satisfaction of any condition or in respect of the Placing generally,
and by participating in the Placing each Placee agrees that any such decision is
within the absolute discretion of BofA Merrill Lynch.
By participating in the Bookbuild, each Placee agrees that its rights and
obligations hereunder terminate only in the circumstances described above and
under "Termination of the Placing Agreement" below, and will not be capable of
rescission or termination by the Placee.
Termination of the Placing Agreement
BofA Merrill Lynch on behalf of the Joint Lead Managers is  entitled, at any
time before Admission, to terminate the Placing Agreement in relation to their
obligations in respect of the Placing Shares by giving notice to the Company if,
amongst other things:
(a)     any of the conditions to the Joint Lead Managers' obligations under the
Placing Agreement have not been satisfied by the Company or waived by BofA
Merrill Lynch; or
(b)                 there has been a breach of any of the warranties and
representations contained in the Placing Agreement or any material failure to
perform any of the undertakings or agreements in the Placing Agreement; or
(c)     it shall come to the notice of BofA Merrill Lynch that any statement
contained in this Announcement, or any other document or announcement issued or
published by or on behalf of the Company in connection with the Placing
(together, the "Placing Documents"), is or has become untrue, incorrect or
misleading in any material respect, or any matter has arisen, which would, if
the Placing were made at that time, constitute a material omission from the
Placing Documents or a material omission from or misleading inaccuracy in
publicly available information made public by the Company previously, or any of
them, and which BofA Merrill Lynch, acting in good faith, considers to be
material in the context of the Placing or the underwriting of the Placing
Shares, Admission or any of the transactions contemplated by the Placing
Agreement; or
(d)     there has occurred (i) any material adverse change in the financial
markets in the United States, the United Kingdom, Finland, any member states of
the European Union or in the international financial markets, (ii) any outbreak
or escalation of hostilities, or other calamity or crisis or (iii) any change or
development involving a prospective change in national political, financial or
economic conditions, or currency exchange rates in such countries or
internationally, in each case the effect of which is such as to make it, in the
judgement of BofA Merrill Lynch acting in good faith, impracticable or
inadvisable to market the Placing Shares or to enforce contracts for the sale of
the Placing Shares; or
(e)   if trading in the Ordinary Shares is suspended or limited or there are
certain other disruptions, limitations or suspensions in respect of the
operations of certain stock exchanges or a banking moratorium is declared by
certain authorities, or if there is an announcement of intended withdrawal from
the Euro, or of intended redomination of any obligation, private or public, by
any EEA member state which is such to make it, in the judgement of BofA Merrill
Lynch acting in good faith, impracticable or inadvisable to market the Placing
Shares or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Placing Shares.
Upon such termination, the parties to the Placing Agreement shall be released
and discharged (except for any liability arising before or in relation to such
termination) from their respective obligations under or pursuant to the Placing
Agreement subject to certain exceptions.
By participating in the Placing, Placees agree that the exercise by BofA Merrill
Lynch of any right of termination or other discretion under the Placing
Agreement shall be within the absolute discretion of BofA Merrill Lynch and that
it need not make any reference to Placees and that it shall have no
responsibility or liability to Placees whatsoever in connection with any such
exercise or failure so to exercise.

Joint Lead Managers or their Affiliates (other than the amount of the relevant
Placing participation in the oral confirmation given to Placees and the contract
note referred to below) or any other person and none of the Joint Lead Managers,
their Affiliates, any persons acting on their behalf or the Company nor any
other person will be liable for any Placee's decision to participate in the
Placing based on any other information, representation, warranty or statement
which the Placees may have obtained or received (regardless of whether or not
such information, representation, warranty or statement was given or made by or
on behalf of any such persons). Each Placee acknowledges and agrees that it has
relied on its own investigation of the business, financial or other position of
the Company in accepting a participation in the Placing. Nothing in this
paragraph shall exclude the liability of any person for fraudulent
misrepresentation.
Registration and settlement
Settlement of transactions in the Placing Shares following Admission will take
place within the Book-entry System.
Placees outside of the Republic of Finland who wish to hold their Placing Shares
in uncertificated form in CREST will not be issued with Ordinary Shares but will
receive their interest in the Company by means of the CREST International
Settlement Links Service and, in particular, the link with Euroclear Finland and
SIX SIS AG.  The Placing Shares will be issued by the Company and incorporated
within the Book-entry System and then transferred to CREST International
Nominees Limited ("CINL"), a subsidiary of CRESTCo, which will hold them on
trust and will be subject to the existing depositary arrangements between the
Company and the depositary.
The Company reserves the right to require settlement for and delivery of the
Placing Shares (or a portion thereof) to Placees who are outside of the Republic
of Finland in certificated form if, in the Joint Lead Managers' opinion,
delivery or settlement is not possible or practicable within the CREST system or
would not be consistent with the regulatory requirements in the Placee's
jurisdiction.
Following the close of the Bookbuild for the Placing, each Placee allocated
Placing Shares in the Placing will be sent a contract note stating the number of
Placing Shares to be allocated to it at the Placing Price and settlement
instructions.
Each Placee agrees that it will do all things necessary to ensure that delivery
and payment is completed within the Book-entry System maintained by Euroclear
Finland and in respect of CREST.
It is expected that settlement will be on 14 March 2012 in accordance with the
instructions given to the Joint Lead Managers.
Interest is chargeable daily on payments not received from Placees on the due
date in accordance with the arrangements set out above at the rate of two
percentage points above LIBOR as determined by the Joint Lead Managers.
Each Placee agrees that, if it does not comply with these obligations, any or
all of the Placing Shares allocated to that Placee may be sold on such Placee's
behalf and an amount equal to the aggregate amount owed by the Placee plus any
interest due will be retained from the proceeds for the Company's account and
benefit. The relevant Placee will, however, remain liable for any shortfall
below the aggregate amount owed by it and shall be required to bear any stamp
duty, stamp duty reserve tax or other stamp, securities, transfer, registration,
execution, documentary or other similar impost, duty or tax (together with any
interest or penalties) which may arise upon the sale of such Placing Shares on
such Placee's behalf.
If Placing Shares are to be delivered to a custodian or settlement agent,
Placees should ensure that the contract note is copied and delivered immediately
to the relevant person within that organisation. Insofar as Placing Shares are
registered in a Placee's name or that of its nominee or in the name of any
person for whom a Placee is contracting as agent or that of a nominee for such
person, such Placing Shares should, subject to as provided below, be so
registered free from any liability to UK stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax.
Placees will not be entitled to receive any fee or commission in connection with
the Placing.  If there are any circumstances in which any other stamp duty or
stamp duty reserve tax (together with interest and penalties) is payable in
respect of the issue of the Placing Shares, neither the Joint Lead Managers nor
the Company shall be responsible for the payment thereof.

registration as holder, of Placing Shares is, or is acting as nominee or agent
for, and that the Placing Shares will not be allotted to, a person whose
business either is or includes issuing depositary receipts or the provision of
clearance services). If there are any such arrangements, or the settlement
relates to any other dealing in the Placing Shares, stamp duty or stamp duty
reserve tax may be payable. In that event the Placee agrees that it shall be
responsible for such stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax, and neither the
Company nor the Joint Lead Managers shall be responsible for such stamp duty or
stamp duty reserve tax. If this is the case, each Placee should seek its own
advice and notify the Joint Lead Managers accordingly;

more than ten per cent. to the middle market price of the Ordinary Shares at the
time of agreeing the Placing unless such Placing Price is approved by the
Shareholders. In such a situation, the Resolution will be amended and
Shareholders will be asked to consider and, if thought fit, approve the Placing
Price. Each Placee and any person acting on behalf of each Placee acknowledges
and agrees that the Joint Lead Managers or any of their Affiliates may, at their
absolute discretion, agree to become a Placee in respect of some or all of the
Placing Shares.
When a Placee or person acting on behalf of the Placee is dealing with the Joint
Lead Managers, any money held in an account with any of the Joint Lead Managers
on behalf of the Placee and/or any person acting on behalf of the Placee will
not be treated as client money within the meaning of the rules and regulations
of the FSA made under FSMA. The Placee acknowledges that the money will not be
subject to the protections conferred by the client money rules; as a
consequence, this money will not be segregated from the relevant Joint Lead
Managers' money in accordance with the client money rules and will be used by
the relevant Joint Lead Managers in the course of their own business; and the
Placee will rank only as a general creditor of the Joint Lead Managers.
All times and dates in this Announcement may be subject to amendment. The Joint
Lead Managers shall notify the Placees and any person acting on behalf of the
Placees of any changes.
Past performance is no guide to future performance and persons needing advice
should consult an independent financial adviser.
The rights and remedies of the Joint Lead Managers and the Company under these
Terms and Conditions are in addition to any rights and remedies which would
otherwise be available to each of them and the exercise or partial exercise of
one will not prevent the exercise of others.
Each Placee may be asked to disclose in writing or orally to the Joint Lead
Managers:
if he is an individual, his nationality; or
if he is a discretionary fund manager, the jurisdiction in which the funds are
managed or owned.
