 beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual beneficial owners of the Depositary Shares; DTC’s records reflect only the identity of the direct participants to whose accounts the Depositary Shares are credited, which may or may not be the beneficial owners. The direct and indirect participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers. Any notices required to be delivered to you will be given by the depositary to DTC for communication to its participants. Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to direct participants, by direct participants to indirect participants, and by direct and indirect participants to beneficial owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. If the depositary receipts are issued in certificated form, notices to you also will be given by mail to the addresses of the holders as they appear on the security register. Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to Depositary Shares unless authorized by a direct participant in accordance with DTC’s procedures. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an omnibus proxy to the issuer as soon as possible after the record date. The omnibus proxy assigns Cede & Co.’s consenting or voting rights to those direct participants to whose accounts Depositary Shares are credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the omnibus proxy). DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities depositary with respect to the Depositary Shares at any time by giving reasonable notice to the issuer or its agent. Under these circumstances, or (i) if DTC ceases to be registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act, in the event that a successor securities depositary is not obtained within 90 days, or (ii) if we elect to issue certificates for the Depositary Shares as discussed above, we will print and deliver certificates for the Depositary Shares. As long as DTC or its nominee is the registered owner of the global depositary receipts representing the Depositary Shares, DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner and holder of all global depositary receipts and all Depositary Shares represented by those receipts for all purposes under the instruments governing the rights and obligations of holders of the Depositary Shares. Except in the limited circumstances referred to above, owners of beneficial interests in the Depositary Shares
