ucturing Plan. The General Meeting will consider and, if thought fit, approve a waiver of Rule 9 of the Takeover Code, such approval being a condition of the Restructuring Plan. A circular, incorporating the notice of General Meeting has been posted to shareholders.

The implementation of the Restructuring Plan will result in Growler acquiring interests in shares carrying more than 30% of the Company's voting rights. Under the Takeover Code, Growler's acquisition would trigger an obligation on Growler to make a mandatory offer to the remaining shareholders in Argo. The Restructuring Plan is, therefore, conditional upon the Takeover Panel agreeing to a waiver of the obligation under Rule 9 to make a mandatory offer, subject to independent shareholders approving that waiver. If shareholders do not approve the Rule 9 waiver, Argo intends to apply to the Panel to request that the Panel permit a dispensation under section 2(c) of the Introduction of the Takeover Code from the obligation that would otherwise arise on Growler to make a mandatory offer under Rule 9 in order to facilitate the rescue of Argo which is in serious financial difficulty.

The Restructuring Plan has been structured to enable the Company to rely on the exemption from registration provided by Section 3(a)(10) of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and certain other available exemptions under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 and applicable state securities laws, in each case with respect to securities expected to be issued under the plan.
