Purchase of Our Own Shares

Under the Companies Act and our Articles of Incorporation, we may acquire our own shares:

• by purchase on any stock exchange on which our shares are listed or by way of a tender offer, pursuant to a resolution of our board of directors subject to certain requirements;

• by purchase from a specific party other than any of our subsidiaries, pursuant to a special resolution of a general meeting of shareholders; and

• by purchase from any of our subsidiaries, pursuant to a resolution of the board of directors or determination of an individual director to whom the authority to make such determination has been delegated by resolution of the board of directors.

If we acquire our own shares from a specific party other than any of our subsidiaries as specified above at a price higher than the greater of (i) (a) the closing price of the shares at the market trading such shares on the day immediately preceding the day on which the relevant special resolution of a general meeting of shareholders is made or (b) if no sale takes place at such a market on that day, the price at which the sale of the shares is effected on such a market immediately thereafter and (ii) in the event that such shares are subject to a tender offer, the price set in the contract regarding such a tender offer on that day, shareholders may request that we include him or her as the seller of his or her shares in the proposed purchase. Any such acquisition of shares must satisfy certain requirements, such as that we may only acquire our own shares in an aggregate amount up to the amount that we may distribute as a Surplus. See “ - Distribution of Surplus” above for more details regarding this amount.
