Receipt to the contrary, the Depositary may, in its discretion, issue ADRs
(including Restricted ADRs) in definitive form and Holders of ADRs (other than
any Holders of Restricted ADRs who shall be required to hold ADRs in definitive
form) shall only be entitled to receive definitive Receipts, except and to the
extent the Depositary has made definitive Receipts available at the expense of
the Company (i) in its sole discretion or (ii) (a) during a continuous period
lasting at least 14 days during which DTC ceases to operate as a book-entry
clearing house and settlement system (other than by reason of holidays,
statutory or otherwise) or (b) DTC announces an intention permanently to cease
and subsequently ceases business as a book-entry clearing house and settlement
system and no alternative book-entry clearing house and settlement system
satisfactory to the Depositary is available within 45 days. Holders and
Beneficial Owners shall be bound by the terms and conditions of this Deposit
Agreement and of the form of Receipt, regardless of whether their Receipts are
certificated or issued through book-entry registration.

          (b)  Legends. The ADRs may be endorsed with, or have incorporated in
the text thereof, such legends or recitals not inconsistent with the provisions
of the Deposit Agreement as may be (i) necessary to enable the Depositary and
the Company to perform their respective obligations hereunder, (ii) required to
comply with any applicable laws or regulations, or with the rules and
regulations of any securities exchange or market upon which ADSs may be traded,
listed or quoted, or to conform with any usage with respect thereto, (iii)
necessary to indicate any special limitations or restrictions to which any
particular ADRs or ADSs are subject by reason of the date of issuance of the
Deposited Securities or otherwise, or (iv) required by any book-entry system in
which the ADSs are held. Holders and Beneficial Owners shall be deemed, for all
purposes, to have notice of, and to be bound by, the terms and conditions of the
legends set forth, in the case of Holders, on the ADR registered in the name of
the applicable Holders or, in the case of Beneficial Owners, on the ADR
representing the ADSs owned by such Beneficial Owners.

                                       5
<PAGE>

          (c)  Subject to the limitations contained herein and in the form of
Receipt, title to a Receipt (and to the ADSs evidenced thereby), when properly
endorsed (in the case of certificated Receipts) or upon delivery to the
Depositary of proper instruments of transfer, shall be transferable by delivery
with the same effect as in the case of a negotiable instrument under the laws of
the State of New York; provided, however, that the Depositary, notwithstanding
any notice to the contrary, may treat the Holder thereof as the absolute owner
thereof for the purpose of determining the person entitled to distribution of
dividends or other distributions or to any notice provided for in this Deposit
Agreement and for all other purposes and neither the Depositary nor the Company
will have any obligation or be subject to any liability under the Deposit
Agreement to any holder of a Receipt, unless such holder is the Holder thereof.

     SECTION 2.3 Deposits. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Deposit Agreement and applicable law, Shares or evidence of rights to receive
Shares (including Restricted Securities provided that any such Restricted
Securities shall be held fully segregated from Shares otherwise deposited
hereunder) may be deposited by any person (including the Depositary in its
individual capacity but subject, however, in the case of the Company or any
Affiliate of the Company, to Section 5.7 and Section 2.11 hereof). Every deposit
of Shares shall be accompanied by the following: (A) in the case of Shares
issued in registered form, appropriate instruments of transfer or endorsement,
in a form satisfactory to the Custodian, (B) such certifications and payments
(including, without limitation, the Depositary's fees and related charges) and
evidence of such payments (including, without limitation, stamping or otherwise
marking such Shares by way of receipt) as may be required by the Depositary or
the Custodian in accordance with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement,
(C) if the Depositary so requires, a written order directing the Depositary to
execute and deliver to, or upon the written order of, the person or persons
stated in such order a Receipt or Receipts for the number of American Depositary
Shares representing the Shares so deposited, (D) evidence satisfactory to the
Depositary (which may include an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to
the Depositary provided at the cost of the person seeking to deposit Shares)
that all conditions to such deposit have been met and all necessary approvals
have been granted by, and there has been compliance with the rules and
regulations of, any applicable governmental agency in Bermuda, and (E) if the
Depositary so requires, (i) an agreement, assignment or instrument satisfactory
to the Depositary or the Custodian which provides for the prompt transfer by any
person in whose name the Shares are or have been recorded to the Custodian of
any distribution, or right to subscribe for additional Shares or to receive
other property in respect of any such deposited Shares or, in lieu thereof, such
indemnity or other agreement as shall be satisfactory to the Depositary or the
Custodian and (ii) if the Shares are registered in the name of the person on
whose behalf they are presented for deposit, a proxy or proxies entitling the
Custodian to exercise voting rights in respect of the Shares for any and all
purposes until the Shares so deposited are registered in the name of the
Depositary, the Custodian or any nominee. No Share shall be accepted for deposit
unless accompanied by confirmation or such additional evidence, if any is
required by the Depositary, that is reasonably satisfactory to the Depositary or
the Custodian that all conditions to such deposit have been satisfied by the
person depositing such Shares under the laws and regulations of Bermuda and any
necessary approval has been granted by any governmental body in Bermuda , if
any, which is then performing the function of the regulator of currency
exchange. The Depositary may issue Receipts against evidence of rights to
receive Shares from the Company, any agent of the Company or any custodian,
registrar, transfer agent, clearing agency or other entity involved in ownership
or transaction records in respect of the Shares. Without limitation of the
foregoing and subject to Section 2.11 hereof, the Depositary shall not knowingly
accept for deposit under this Deposit Agreement any Shares or other Deposited
Securities required to be registered under the provisions of the Securities Act,
unless a registration statement is in effect as to such Shares or other
Deposited Securities, or any Shares or other Deposited Securities the deposit of
which would violate any provisions of the Memorandum and Bye-laws of the
Company. The Depositary shall use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with
reasonable written instructions of the Company that

                                       6
<PAGE>

the Depositary shall not accept for deposit hereunder any Shares specifically
identified in such instructions at such times and under such circumstances as
may reasonably be specified in such instructions in order to facilitate the
Company's compliance with the securities laws in the United States and other
jurisdictions; provided that the Company shall indemnify the Depositary and the
Custodian for any claims and losses arising from not accepting the deposit of
any Shares identified in the Company's instructions.

          (b)  As soon as practicable after receipt of any permitted deposit
hereunder and compliance with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement, the
Custodian shall present the Shares so deposited, together with the appropriate
instrument or instruments of transfer or endorsement, duly stamped, to the
Foreign Registrar for transfer and registration of the Shares (as soon as
transfer and registration can be accomplished and at the expense of the person
for whom the deposit is made) in the name of the Depositary, the Custodian or a
nominee of either. Deposited Securities shall be held by the Depositary or by a
Custodian for the account and to the order of the Depositary or a nominee, in
each case for the account of the Holders and Beneficial Owners, at such place or
places as the Depositary or the Custodian shall determine.

          (c)  In the event any Shares are deposited which entitle the holders
thereof to receive a per-share distribution or other entitlement in an amount
different from the Shares then on deposit, the Depositary is authorized to take
any and all actions as may be necessary (including, without limitation, making
the necessary notations on Receipts) to give effect to the issuance of such ADSs
and to ensure that such ADSs are not fungible with other ADSs issued hereunder
until such time as the entitlement of the Shares represented by such
non-fungible ADSs equals that of the Shares represented by ADSs prior to the
original such deposit. The Company agrees to give timely written notice to the
Depositary if any Shares issued or to be issued contain rights different from
those of any other Shares theretofore issued and shall assist the Depositary
with the establishment of procedures enabling the identification of such
non-fungible Shares upon Delivery to the Custodian.

     SECTION 2.4 Execution and Delivery of Receipts. After the deposit of any
Shares pursuant to Section 2.3, the Custodian shall notify the Depositary of
such deposit and the person or persons to whom or upon whose written order a
Receipt or Receipts are deliverable in respect thereof and the number of
American Depositary Shares to be evidenced thereby. Such notification shall be
made by letter, first class airmail postage prepaid, or, at the request, risk
and expense of the person making the deposit, by cable, telex, SWIFT, facsimile
or electronic transmission. After receiving such notice from the Custodian, the
Depositary, subject to this Deposit Agreement (including, without limitation,
the payment by the Company of the fees, expenses, taxes and other charges owing
hereunder), shall issue the ADSs representing the Shares so deposited to or upon
the order of the person or persons named in the notice delivered to the
Depositary and shall execute and deliver a Receipt registered in the name or
names requested by such person or persons evidencing in the aggregate the number
of American Depositary Shares to which such person or persons are entitled.
Nothing herein shall prohibit any Pre-Release Transaction upon the terms set
forth in this Deposit Agreement.

     SECTION 2.5 Transfer of Receipts; Combination and Split-up of Receipts.

          (a)  Transfer. The Depositary, or, if a Registrar (other than the
Depositary) for the Receipts shall have been appointed, the Registrar, subject

Depositary of a Receipt by the Holder thereof in person or by duly authorized
attorney, properly endorsed in the case of a certificated Receipt or accompanied

instruments of transfer (including signature guarantees in accordance

                                       7

with standard industry practice) and duly stamped as may be required by the laws
of the State of New York and of the United States and any other applicable law.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, including payment
of the applicable fees and charges of the Depositary set forth in Section 5.9
and Article (9), the Depositary shall execute a new Receipt or Receipts and
deliver the same to or upon the order of the person entitled thereto evidencing
the same aggregate number of American Depositary Shares as those evidenced by
the Receipts surrendered.

          (b)  Combination and Split Up. The Depositary, subject to the terms
and conditions of this Deposit Agreement shall, upon surrender of a Receipt or
Receipts for the purpose of effecting a split-up or combination of such Receipt
or Receipts and upon payment to the Depositary of the applicable fees and
charges set forth in Section 5.9 and Article (9), execute and deliver a new
Receipt or Receipts for any authorized number of American Depositary Shares
requested, evidencing the same aggregate number of American Depositary Shares as
the Receipt or Receipts surrendered.

          (c)  Co-Transfer Agents. The Depositary may appoint one or more
co-transfer agents for the purpose of effecting transfers, combinations and
split-ups of Receipts at designated transfer offices on behalf of the
Depositary. In carrying out its functions, a co-transfer agent may require
evidence of authority and compliance with applicable laws and other requirements
by Holders or persons entitled to such Receipts and will be entitled to
protection and indemnity, in each case to the same extent as the Depositary.
Such co-transfer agents may be removed and substitutes appointed by the
Depositary. Each co-transfer agent appointed under this Section 2.5 (other than
the Depositary) shall give notice in writing to the Depositary accepting such
appointment and agreeing to be bound by the applicable terms of this Deposit
Agreement.

          (d)  At the request of a Holder, the Depositary shall, for the purpose
of substituting a certificated Receipt with a Receipt issued through
DRS/Profile, or vice versa, execute and deliver a certificated Receipt or
DRS/Profile statement, as the case may be, for any authorized number of ADSs
requested, evidencing the same aggregate number of ADSs as those evidenced by
the certificated Receipt or DRS/Profile statement, as the case may be,
substituted.

     SECTION 2.6 Surrender of Receipts and Withdrawal of Deposited Securities.
Upon surrender, at the Corporate Trust Office of the Depositary, of American
Depositary Shares for the purpose of withdrawal of the Deposited Securities
represented thereby, and upon payment of (i) the fees and charges of the

(ii) all applicable taxes and governmental charges payable in connection with
such surrender and withdrawal, and subject to the terms and conditions of this

the American Depositary Shares so surrendered. American Depositary Shares may be
surrendered for the purpose of withdrawing Deposited Securities by delivery of a
Receipt evidencing such American Depositary Shares (if held in certificated
form) or by book-entry delivery of such American Depositary Shares to the
Depositary.

          A Receipt surrendered for such purposes shall, if so required by the
Depositary, be properly endorsed in blank or accompanied by proper instruments
of transfer in blank, and if the Depositary so requires, the Holder thereof
shall execute and deliver to the Depositary a written order directing the
Depositary to cause the Deposited Securities being withdrawn to be Delivered to
or upon the written order of a person or persons designated in such order.
Thereupon, the Depositary shall direct the Custodian to Deliver (without
unreasonable delay) at the designated office of the Custodian or through a

                                       8

book-entry delivery of the Shares (in either case, subject to Sections 2.7, 3.1,
3.2, 5.9, and to the other terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, to
the Company's Bye-laws, to the provisions of or governing the Deposited
Securities and to applicable laws, now or hereafter in effect) to or upon the
written order of the person or persons designated in the order delivered to the
Depositary as provided above, the Deposited Securities represented by such
American Depositary Shares, together with any certificate or other proper
documents of or relating to title of the Deposited Securities as may be legally
required, as the case may be, to or for the account of such person.

          The Depositary may, in its discretion, refuse to accept for surrender
a number of American Depositary Shares representing a number other than a whole
number of Shares. In the case of surrender of a Receipt evidencing a number of
American Depositary Shares representing other than a whole number of Shares, the
Depositary shall cause ownership of the appropriate whole number of Shares to be
Delivered in accordance with the terms hereof, and shall, at the discretion of
the Depositary, either (i) issue and deliver to the person surrendering such
Receipt a new Receipt evidencing American Depositary Shares representing any
remaining fractional Share, or (ii) sell or cause to be sold the fractional
Shares represented by the Receipt surrendered and remit the proceeds of such
sale (net of (a) applicable fees and charges of, and expenses incurred by, the
Depositary and (b) taxes withheld) to the person surrendering the Receipt.

          At the request, risk and expense of any Holder so surrendering a
Receipt, and for the account of such Holder, the Depositary shall direct the
Custodian to forward (to the extent permitted by law) any cash or other property
(other than securities) held in respect of, and any certificate or certificates
and other proper documents of or relating to title to, the Deposited Securities
represented by such Receipt to the Depositary for delivery at the Corporate
Trust Office of the Depositary, and for further delivery to such Holder. Such
direction shall be given by letter or, at the request, risk and expense of such
Holder, by cable, telex or facsimile transmission. Upon receipt by the
Depositary, the Depositary may make delivery to such person or persons entitled
thereto at the Corporate Trust Office of the Depositary of any dividends or cash
distributions with respect to the Deposited Securities represented by such
American Depositary Shares, or of any proceeds of sale of any dividends,
distributions or rights, which may at the time be held by the Depositary.

     SECTION 2.7 Limitations on Execution and Delivery, Transfer, etc. of
Receipts; Suspension of Delivery, Transfer, etc.

          (a)  Additional Requirements. As a condition precedent to the
execution and delivery, registration, registration of transfer, split-up,
subdivision, combination or surrender of any Receipt, the delivery of any
distribution thereon or withdrawal of any Deposited Securities, the Depositary
or the Custodian may require (i) payment from the Company on behalf of any
depositor of Shares or presenter of the Receipt (or with respect to the
surrender of any Receipt or withdrawal of any Deposited Securities, from the
depositor of Shares or presenter of the Receipt) of a sum sufficient to
reimburse it for any tax or other governmental charge and any stock transfer or
registration fee with respect thereto (including any such tax or charge and fee
with respect to Shares being deposited or withdrawn) and payment of any
applicable fees and charges of the Depositary as provided in Section 5.9 and
Article (9), or as separately agreed from time to time between the Company and
the Depositary, (ii) the production of proof satisfactory to it as to the
identity and genuineness of any signature or any other matter contemplated by
Section 3.1 hereof and (iii) compliance with (A) any laws or governmental
regulations relating to the execution and delivery of Receipts or American
Depositary Shares or to the withdrawal or delivery of Deposited Securities and
(B) such reasonable regulations as the Depositary may establish consistent with
the provisions of this Deposit Agreement and applicable law.

                                       9
<PAGE>

          (b)  Additional Limitations. The issuance of ADSs against deposits of
Shares generally or against deposits of particular Shares may be suspended, or
the issuance of ADSs against the deposit of particular Shares may be withheld,
or the registration of transfer of Receipts in particular instances may be
refused, or the registration of transfers of Receipts generally may be
suspended, during any period when the transfer books of the Depositary are
closed or if any such action is deemed necessary or advisable by the Depositary
or the Company, in good faith, at any time or from time to time because of any
requirement of law, any government or governmental body or commission or any
securities exchange on which the Receipts or Shares are listed, or under any
provision of this Deposit Agreement or provisions of, or governing, the
Deposited Securities, or any meeting of shareholders of the Company or for any
other reason, subject, in all cases, to Section 7.10 hereof.

     SECTION 2.8 Lost Receipts, etc. To the extent the Depositary has issued
Receipts in physical certificated form, in case any Receipt shall be mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen, unless the Depositary has notice that such ADR has
been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, subject to Section 5.9 hereof, the
Depositary shall execute and deliver a new Receipt (which, in the discretion of
the Depositary may be issued through DRS/Profile unless specifically requested
otherwise) in exchange and substitution for such mutilated Receipt upon
cancellation thereof, or in lieu of and in substitution for such destroyed, lost
or stolen Receipt. Before the Depositary shall execute and deliver a new Receipt
in substitution for a destroyed, lost or stolen Receipt, the Holder thereof
shall have (a) filed with the Depositary (i) a request for such execution and
delivery before the Depositary has notice that the Receipt has been acquired by
a bona fide purchaser and (ii) a sufficient indemnity bond in form and amount
acceptable to the Depositary and (b) satisfied any other reasonable requirements
imposed by the Depositary.

     SECTION 2.9 Cancellation and Destruction of Surrendered Receipts;
Maintenance of Records. All Receipts surrendered to the Depositary shall be
cancelled by the Depositary. The Depositary is authorized to destroy Receipts so
cancelled in accordance with its customary practices. Cancelled Receipts shall
not be entitled to any benefits under this Deposit Agreement or be valid or
obligatory for any purpose.

     SECTION 2.10 Pre-Release. Subject to the further terms and provisions of
this Section 2.10, the Depositary, its Affiliates and their agents, on their own
behalf, may own and deal in any class of securities of the Company and its
Affiliates and in ADSs. In its capacity as Depositary, the Depositary may
(i) issue ADSs prior to the receipt of Shares (each such transaction a
"Pre-Release Transaction") as provided below and (ii) deliver Shares upon the
receipt and cancellation of ADSs that were issued in a Pre-Release Transaction,
but for which Shares may not yet have been received. The Depositary may receive
ADSs in lieu of Shares under (i) above and receive shares in lieu of ADSs under
(ii) above. Each such Pre-Release Transaction will be (a) subject to a written
agreement whereby the person or entity (the "Applicant") to whom ADSs or Shares
are to be delivered (1) represents that at the time of the Pre-Release
Transaction the Applicant or its customer owns the Shares or ADSs that are to be
delivered by the Applicant under such Pre-Release Transaction, (2) agrees to
indicate the Depositary as owner of such Shares or ADSs in its records and to
hold such Shares or ADSs in trust for the Depositary until such Shares or ADSs
are delivered to the Depositary or the Custodian, (3) unconditionally guarantees
to deliver to the Depositary or the Custodian, as applicable, such Shares or
ADSs, and (4) agrees to any additional restrictions or requirements that the
Depositary deems appropriate, (b) at all times fully collateralized with cash,
United States government securities or such other collateral as the Depositary
deems appropriate, (c) terminable by the Depositary on not more than five (5)
business days' notice (save for a prescribed termination event in which case any
such Pre-Release Transaction may be immediately terminable by the Depositary)
and (d) subject to such further indemnities and credit regulations as the
Depositary deems appropriate. The Depositary will normally limit the number of
ADSs involved in such Pre-Release Transactions at any one time to thirty percent
(30%) of the ADSs outstanding (without giving

                                       10
<PAGE>

effect to ADSs outstanding pursuant to any Pre-Release Transaction), provided,
however, that the Depositary reserves the right to disregard such limit from
time to time as it deems appropriate. The Depositary may also set limits with
respect to the number of ADSs involved in Pre-Release Transactions with any one
person on a case by case basis as it deems appropriate.

          The Depositary may retain for its own account any compensation
received by it in conjunction with the foregoing. Collateral provided pursuant
to (b) above, but not the earnings thereon, shall be held for the benefit of the
Holders (other than the Applicant).

     SECTION 2.11 Restricted ADSs. The Depositary shall, at the request and
expense of the Company, establish procedures enabling the deposit hereunder of
Shares that are Restricted Securities in order to enable the holder of such
Shares to hold its ownership interests in such restricted Shares in the form of
ADSs issued under the terms hereof (such Shares, "Restricted Shares").
Restricted ADSs shall only be issued in physical form, registered in the name of
the Holder of Restricted ADSs. Upon receipt of a written request from the
Company to accept Restricted Shares for deposit hereunder, the Depositary agrees
to establish procedures permitting the deposit of such Restricted Shares and the
issuance of ADSs representing such deposited Restricted Shares (such ADSs, the
"Restricted AdSs," and the ADRs evidencing such Restricted ADSs, the "Restricted
ADRs"). The Company shall assist the Depositary in the establishment of such
procedures and agrees that it shall take all steps necessary and reasonably
satisfactory to the Depositary to insure that the establishment of such
procedures does not violate the provisions of the Securities Act or any other
applicable laws. The depositors of such Restricted Shares and the holders of the
Restricted ADSs may be required prior to the deposit of such Restricted Shares,
the transfer of the Restricted ADRs and the Restricted ADSs evidenced thereby or
the withdrawal of the Restricted Shares represented by Restricted ADSs to
provide such written certifications or agreements as the Depositary or the
Company may require. The Company shall provide to the Depositary in writing the
legend(s) to be affixed to the Restricted ADRs, which legends shall (i) be in a
form reasonably satisfactory to the Depositary and (ii) contain the specific
circumstances under which the Restricted ADRs and the Restricted ADSs
represented thereby may be transferred or the Restricted Shares withdrawn. The
Restricted ADSs issued upon the deposit of Restricted Shares shall be separately
identified on the books of the Depositary and the Restricted Shares so deposited
shall be held separate and distinct from the other Deposited Securities held
hereunder. The Restricted Shares and the Restricted ADSs shall not be eligible
for Pre-Release Transactions. The Restricted ADSs shall not be eligible for
inclusion in any book-entry settlement system, including, without limitation,
DTC, and shall not in any way be fungible with the ADSs issued under the terms
hereof that are not Restricted ADSs. The Restricted ADRs and the Restricted ADSs
evidenced thereby shall be transferable only by the Holder thereof upon delivery
to the Depositary of (i) all documentation otherwise contemplated by this
Deposit Agreement and (ii) an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
Depositary setting forth, inter alia, the conditions upon which the Restricted
ADR presented is, and the Restricted ADSs evidenced thereby are, transferable by
the Holder thereof under applicable securities laws and the transfer
restrictions contained in the legend set forth on the Restricted ADR presented
for transfer. Except as set forth in this Section 2.11 and except as required by
applicable law, the Restricted ADRs and the Restricted ADSs evidenced thereby
shall be treated as ADRs and ADSs issued and outstanding under the terms of the
Deposit Agreement. In the event that, in determining the rights and obligations
of parties hereto with respect to any Restricted ADSs, any conflict arises
between (a) the terms of this Deposit Agreement (other than this Section 2.11)
and (b) the terms of (i) this Section 2.11 or (ii) the applicable Restricted
ADR, the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 2.11 and of the
Restricted ADR shall be controlling and shall govern the rights and obligations
of the parties to this Deposit Agreement pertaining to the deposited Restricted
Shares, the Restricted ADSs and Restricted ADRs.

                                       11
<PAGE>

          If any of the Restricted ADRs, the Restricted ADSs and the Restricted
Shares are no longer Restricted Securities, the Depositary, upon receipt of (x)
an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Depositary setting forth,
inter alia, that such Restricted ADRs, Restricted ADSs and Restricted Shares are
not as of such time Restricted Securities, and (y) instructions from the Company
to remove the restrictions applicable to such Restricted ADRs, Restricted ADSs
and the Restricted Shares, shall (i) eliminate the distinctions and separations
between such Restricted Shares held on deposit under this Section 2.11 and the
other Shares held on deposit under the terms of the Deposit Agreement that are
not Restricted Shares, (ii) treat such newly unrestricted ADRs and ADSs on the
same terms as, and fully fungible with, the other ADRs and ADSs issued and
outstanding under the terms of the Deposit Agreement that are not Restricted
ADRs or Restricted ADSs, (iii) take all actions necessary to remove any
distinctions, limitations and restrictions previously existing under this
Section 2.11 between such Restricted ADRs and Restricted ADSs, respectively, on
the one hand, and the other ADRs and ADSs that are not Restricted ADRs or
Restricted ADSs, respectively, on the other hand, including, without limitation,
by making the newly unrestricted ADSs eligible for Pre-Release Transactions and
for inclusion in the applicable book-entry settlement systems.

                                  ARTICLE III.

                         CERTAIN OBLIGATIONS OF HOLDERS
                        AND BENEFICIAL OWNERS OF RECEIPTS

     SECTION 3.1 Proofs, Certificates and Other Information. Any person
presenting Shares for deposit, any Holder and any Beneficial Owner may be
required, and every Holder and Beneficial Owner agrees, from time to time to
provide to the Depositary or the Custodian such proof of citizenship or
residence, taxpayer status, payment of all applicable taxes or other
governmental charges, exchange control approval, legal or beneficial ownership
of ADSs and Deposited Securities, compliance with applicable laws and the terms
of this Deposit Agreement and the provisions of, or governing, the Deposited
Securities or other information; to execute such certifications and to make such
representations and warranties, and to provide such other information and
documentation as the Depositary may deem necessary or proper or as the Company
may reasonably require by written request to the Depositary consistent with its
obligations hereunder. The Depositary and the Registrar, as applicable, may
withhold the execution or delivery or registration of transfer of any Receipt or
the distribution or sale of any dividend or distribution of rights or of the
proceeds thereof, or to the extent not limited by the terms of Section 7.10
hereof, the delivery of any Deposited Securities, until such proof or other
information is filed or such certifications are executed, or such
representations and warranties are made, or such other documentation or
information provided, in each case to the Depositary's and the Company's
satisfaction. The Depositary shall from time to time on the written request
advise the Company of the availability of any such proofs, certificates or other
information and shall, at the Company's sole expense, provide or otherwise make
available copies thereof to the Company upon written request thereof by the
Company, unless such disclosure is prohibited by law. Each Holder and Beneficial
Owner agrees to provide any information requested by the Company or the
Depositary pursuant to this paragraph. Nothing herein shall obligate the
Depositary to (i) obtain any information for the Company if not provided by the
Holders or Beneficial Owners or (ii) verify or vouch for the accuracy of the
information so provided by the Holders or Beneficial Owners.

     SECTION 3.2 Liability for Taxes and Other Charges. If any present or future
tax or other governmental charge shall become payable by the Depositary or the
Custodian with respect to any ADR or any Deposited Securities or American
Depositary Shares, such tax or other governmental charge shall be payable by the
Holders and Beneficial Owners to the Depositary and such Holders and Beneficial
Owners shall be deemed liable therefor. The Company, the Custodian and/or the
Depositary may withhold or deduct from any distributions made in respect of
Deposited Securities and may sell for the

                                       12
<PAGE>

account of a Holder and/or Beneficial Owner any or all of the Deposited
Securities and apply such distributions and sale proceeds in payment of such
taxes (including applicable interest and penalties) or charges, with the Holder
and the Beneficial Owner remaining fully liable for any deficiency. In addition
to any other remedies available to it, the Depositary and the Custodian may
refuse the deposit of Shares, and the Depositary may refuse to issue ADSs, to
deliver ADRs, register the transfer, split-up or combination of ADRs and
(subject to Section 7.10) the withdrawal of Deposited Securities, until payment
in full of such tax, charge, penalty or interest is received. Every Holder and
Beneficial Owner agrees to indemnify the Depositary, the Company, the Custodian,
and each of their respective agents, officers, directors, employees and
Affiliates for, and to hold each of them harmless from, any claims with respect
to taxes (including applicable interest and penalties thereon) arising from any
tax benefit obtained for such Holder and/or Beneficial Owner. The obligations of
Holders and Beneficial Owners of Receipts under this Section 3.2 shall survive
any transfer of Receipts, any surrender of Receipts and withdrawal of Deposited
Securities, or the termination of this Deposit Agreement.

     SECTION 3.3 Representations and Warranties on Deposit of Shares. Each
depositor depositing Shares under the Deposit Agreement shall be deemed thereby
to represent and warrant that (i) such Shares and the certificates therefor are
duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, non-assessable and were legally
obtained by such person, (ii) all preemptive (and similar) rights, if any, with
respect to such Shares have been validly waived or exercised, (iii) the person
making such deposit is duly authorized so to do, (iv) the Shares presented for
deposit are free and clear of any lien, encumbrance, security interest, charge,
mortgage or adverse claim, and are not, and the American Depositary Shares
issuable upon such deposit will not be, Restricted Securities (except as
contemplated by Section 2.11) and (v) the Shares presented for deposit have not
been stripped of any rights or entitlements. Such representations and warranties
shall survive the deposit and withdrawal of Shares, the issuance and
cancellation of American Depositary Shares in respect thereof and the transfer
of such American Depositary Shares. If any such representations or warranties
are false in any way, the Company and the Depositary shall be authorized, at the
cost and expense of the person depositing Shares, to take any and all actions
necessary to correct the consequences thereof.

     SECTION 3.4 Compliance with Information Requests. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Deposit Agreement, the Bye-laws of the Company and applicable
law, each Holder and Beneficial Owner agrees to (a) provide such information as
the Company or the Depositary may request pursuant to law (including, without
limitation, relevant Bermuda law, any applicable law of the United States, the
Bye-laws of the Company, any resolutions of the Company's Board of Directors
adopted pursuant to such Bye-laws, the requirements of any markets or exchanges
upon which the Shares, ADSs or Receipts are listed or traded, or to any
requirements of any electronic book-entry system by which the ADSs or Receipts
may be transferred, and (b) be bound by and subject to applicable provisions of
the laws of Bermuda, the Bye-laws of the Company and the requirements of any
markets or exchanges upon which the ADSs, Receipts or Shares are listed or
traded, or pursuant to any requirements of any electronic book-entry system by
which the ADSs, Receipts or Shares may be transferred, to the same extent as if
such Holder and Beneficial Owner held Shares directly, in each case irrespective
of whether or not they are Holders or Beneficial Owners at the time such request
is made. The Depositary agrees to use its reasonable efforts to forward upon the
request of the Company, and at the Company's expense, any such request from the
Company to the Holders and to forward to the Company any such responses to such
requests received by the Depositary.

                                       13
<PAGE>

                                   ARTICLE IV.

                            THE DEPOSITED SECURITIES

     SECTION 4.1 Cash Distributions. Whenever the Depositary receives
confirmation from the Custodian of receipt of any cash dividend or other cash
distribution on any Deposited Securities, or receives proceeds from the sale of
any Shares, rights, securities or other entitlements under the terms hereof,
received in Dollars, the Depositary will distribute promptly the amount thus
received (net of taxes and governmental charges withheld) to the Holders of
record as of the ADS Record Date in proportion to the number of American
Depositary Shares held by such Holders respectively as of the ADS Record Date.
The Depositary shall distribute only such amount, however, as can be distributed
without attributing to any Holder a fraction of one cent. Any such fractional
amounts shall be rounded to the nearest whole cent and so distributed to Holders
entitled thereto. If at the time of receipt thereof any amounts received are
received in a Foreign Currency and can, in the judgment of the Depositary
(pursuant to Section 4.6 hereof) be converted on a practicable basis into
Dollars transferable to the United States, the Depositary will promptly convert
or cause to be converted such cash dividend, distribution or proceeds into
Dollars (on the terms described in Section 4.6) and will distribute in
accordance with the first two sentences of this Section 4.1. Holders and
Beneficial Owners understand that in converting Foreign Currency, amounts
received on conversion are calculated at a rate which exceeds three or four
decimal places (the number of decimal places used by the Depositary to report
distribution rates). The excess amount may be retained by the Depositary as an
additional cost of conversion, irrespective of any other fees and expenses
payable or owing hereunder and shall not be subject to escheatment.

          If the Company, the Custodian or the Depositary is required to
withhold and does withhold from any cash dividend or other cash distribution in
respect of any Deposited Securities an amount on account of taxes, duties or
other governmental charges, the amount distributed to Holders on the American
Depositary Shares representing such Deposited Securities shall be reduced
accordingly. Such withheld amounts shall be forwarded by the Company, the
Custodian or the Depositary to the relevant governmental authority. Evidence of
payment thereof by the Company shall be forwarded by the Company to the
Depositary upon request. The Depositary shall forward to the Company or its
agent such information from its records as the Company may reasonably request to
enable the Company or its agent to file necessary reports with governmental
agencies, such reports necessary to obtain benefits under the applicable tax
treaties for the Holders and Beneficial Owners of Receipts.

     SECTION 4.2 Distribution in Shares. If any distribution upon any Deposited
Securities consists of a dividend in, or free distribution of, Shares, the
Company shall cause such Shares to be deposited with the Custodian and
registered, as the case may be, in the name of the Depositary, the Custodian or
any of their nominees. Upon receipt of confirmation of such deposit from the
Custodian, the Depositary shall establish the ADS Record Date upon the terms
described in Section 4.7 and shall, subject to Section 5.9 hereof, either
(i) distribute to the Holders as of the ADS Record Date in proportion to the
number of American Depositary Shares held as of the ADS Record Date, additional
American Depositary Shares, which represent in the aggregate the number of
Shares received as such dividend, or free distribution, subject to the other
terms of this Deposit Agreement (including, without limitation, taxes), or
(ii) if additional American Depositary Shares are not so distributed, each
American Depositary Share issued and outstanding after the ADS Record Date
shall, to the extent permissible by law, thenceforth also represent rights and
interests in the additional Shares distributed upon the Deposited Securities
represented thereby (net of taxes and governmental charges). In lieu of
delivering fractional American Depositary Shares, the Depositary shall sell the
number of Shares represented by the aggregate of such fractions and distribute
the proceeds upon the terms described in Section 4.1. The Depositary may
withhold any such distribution of Receipts if it has not received satisfactory
assurances from the

                                       14
<PAGE>

Company (including an opinion of counsel to the Company furnished at the expense
of the Company) that such distribution does not require registration under the
Securities Act or is exempt from registration under the provisions of the
Securities Act. To the extent such distribution may be withheld, the Depositary
may dispose of all or a portion of such distribution in such amounts and in such
manner, including by public or private sale, as the Depositary deems necessary
and practicable, and the Depositary shall distribute the net proceeds of any
such sale (after deduction of applicable (a) taxes and (b) fees and charges of,
and expenses incurred by, the Depositary) to Holders entitled thereto upon the
terms described in Section 4.1.

     SECTION 4.3 Elective Distributions in Cash or Shares. Whenever the Company
intends to distribute a dividend payable at the election of the holders of
Shares in cash or in additional Shares, the Company shall give notice thereof to
the Depositary at least 30 days prior to the proposed distribution stating
whether or not it wishes such elective distribution to be made available to
Holders of ADSs. Upon receipt of notice indicating that the Company wishes such
elective distribution to be made available to Holders of ADSs, the Depositary
shall consult with the Company to determine, and the Company shall assist the
Depositary in its determination, whether it is lawful and reasonably practicable
to make such elective distribution available to the Holders of ADSs. The
Depositary shall make such elective distribution available to Holders only if
(i) the Company shall have timely requested that the elective distribution is
available to Holders of ADRs, (ii) the Depositary shall have determined that
such distribution is reasonably practicable and (iii) the Depositary shall have
received satisfactory documentation within the terms of Section 5.7. If the
above conditions are not satisfied, the Depositary shall, to the extent
permitted by law, distribute to the Holders, on the basis of the same
determination as is made in the local market in respect of the Shares for which
no election is made, either (x) cash upon the terms described in Section 4.1 or
(y) additional ADSs representing such additional Shares upon the terms described
in Section 4.2. If the above conditions are satisfied, the Depositary shall
establish an ADS Record Date (on the terms described in Section 4.7) and
establish procedures to enable Holders to elect the receipt of the proposed
dividend in cash or in additional ADSs. The Company shall assist the Depositary
in establishing such procedures to the extent necessary. Subject to Section 5.9
hereof, if a Holder elects to receive the proposed dividend (x) in cash, the
dividend shall be distributed upon the terms described in Section 4.1, or (y) in
ADSs, the dividend shall be distributed upon the terms described in Section 4.2.
Nothing herein shall obligate the Depositary to make available to Holders a
method to receive the elective dividend in Shares (rather than ADSs). There can
be no assurance that Holders generally, or any Holder in particular, will be
given the opportunity to receive elective distributions on the same terms and
conditions as the holders of Shares.

     SECTION 4.4 Distribution of Rights to Purchase Shares.

          (a)  Distribution to ADS Holders. Whenever the Company intends to
distribute to the holders of the Deposited Securities rights to subscribe for
additional Shares, the Company shall give notice thereof to the Depositary at
least 60 days prior to the proposed distribution stating whether or not it
wishes such rights to be made available to Holders of ADSs. Upon receipt of a
notice indicating that the Company wishes such rights to be made available to
Holders of ADSs, the Depositary shall consult with the Company to determine, and
the Company shall determine, whether it is lawful and reasonably practicable to
make such rights available to the Holders. The Depositary shall make such rights
available to Holders only if (i) the Company shall have timely requested that
such rights be made available to Holders, (ii) the Depositary shall have
received satisfactory documentation within the terms of Section 5.7, and (iii)
the Depositary shall have determined that such distribution of rights is lawful
and reasonably practicable. In the event any of the conditions set forth above
are not satisfied, the Depositary shall proceed with the sale of the rights as
contemplated in Section 4.4(b) below or, if timing or market conditions may not
permit, do nothing thereby allowing such rights to lapse. In the event all
conditions

                                       15
<PAGE>

set forth above are satisfied, the Depositary shall establish an ADS Record Date
(upon the terms described in Section 4.7) and establish procedures (x) to
distribute such rights (by means of warrants or otherwise) and (y) to enable the
Holders to exercise the rights (upon payment of applicable (a) fees and charges
of, and expenses incurred by, the Depositary and (b) taxes and other
governmental charges). Nothing herein shall obligate the Depositary to make
available to the Holders a method to exercise such rights to subscribe for
Shares (rather than ADSs).

          (b)  Sale of Rights. If (i) the Company does not timely request the
Depositary to make the rights available to Holders or requests that the rights
not be made available to Holders, (ii) the Depositary fails to receive
satisfactory documentation within the terms of Section 5.7 or determines it is
not lawful or reasonably practicable to make the rights available to Holders, or
(iii) any rights made available are not exercised and appear to be about to
lapse, the Depositary shall determine whether it is lawful and reasonably
practicable to sell such rights, in a riskless principal capacity or otherwise,
at such place and upon such terms (including public or private sale) as it may
deem proper. The Company shall assist the Depositary to the extent necessary to
determine such legality and practicability. The Depositary shall, upon such
sale, convert and distribute proceeds of such sale (net of applicable (a) fees
and charges of, and expenses incurred by, the Depositary and (b) taxes) upon the
terms set forth in Section 4.1.

          (c)  Lapse of Rights. If the Depositary is unable to make any rights
available to Holders upon the terms described in Section 4.4(a) or to arrange
for the sale of the rights upon the terms described in Section 4.4(b), the
Depositary shall allow such rights to lapse.

          The Depositary shall not be responsible for (i) any failure to
determine that it may be lawful or practicable to make such rights available to
Holders in general or any Holders in particular, (ii) any foreign exchange
exposure or loss incurred in connection with such sale, or exercise, or (iii)
the content of any materials forwarded to the Holders on behalf of the Company
in connection with the rights distribution.

          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.4, if
registration (under the Securities Act or any other applicable law) of the
rights or the securities to which any rights relate may be required in order for
the Company to offer such rights or such securities to Holders and to sell the
securities represented by such rights, the Depositary will not distribute such
rights to the Holders (i) unless and until a registration statement under the
Securities Act covering such offering is in effect or (ii) unless the Company
furnishes at its expense the Depositary with opinion(s) of counsel for the
Company in the United States and counsel to the Company in any other applicable
country in which rights would be distributed, in each case satisfactory to the
Depositary, to the effect that the offering and sale of such securities to
Holders and Beneficial Owners are exempt from, or do not require registration
under, the provisions of the Securities Act or any other applicable laws. In the
event that the Company, the Depositary or the Custodian shall be required to
withhold and does withhold from any distribution of property (including rights)
an amount on account of taxes or other governmental charges, the amount
distributed to the Holders shall be reduced accordingly. In the event that the
Depositary determines that any distribution in property (including Shares and
rights to subscribe therefor) is subject to any tax or other governmental
charges which the Depositary is obligated to withhold, the Depositary may
dispose of all or a portion of such property (including Shares and rights to
subscribe therefor) in such amounts and in such manner, including by public or
private sale, as the Depositary deems necessary and practicable to pay any such
taxes or charges.

          There can be no assurance that Holders generally, or any Holder in
particular, will be given the opportunity to exercise rights on the same terms
and conditions as the holders of Shares or be

                                       16
<PAGE>

able to exercise such rights. Nothing herein shall obligate the Company to file
any registration statement in respect of any rights or Shares or other
securities to be acquired upon the exercise of such rights.

     SECTION 4.5 Distributions Other Than Cash, Shares or Rights to Purchase
Shares.

          (a)  Whenever the Company intends to distribute to the holders of
Deposited Securities property other than cash, Shares or rights to purchase
additional Shares, the Company shall give notice thereof to the Depositary at
least 30 days prior to the proposed distribution and shall indicate whether or
not it wishes such distribution to be made to Holders of ADSs. Upon receipt of a
notice indicating that the Company wishes such distribution be made to Holders
of ADSs, the Depositary shall determine whether such distribution to Holders is
lawful and practicable. The Depositary shall not make such distribution unless
(i) the Company shall have timely requested the Depositary to make such
distribution to Holders, (ii) the Depositary shall have received satisfactory
documentation within the terms of Section 5.7, and (iii) the Depositary shall
have determined that such distribution is reasonably practicable.

          (b)  Upon receipt of satisfactory documentation and the request of the
Company to distribute property to Holders of ADSs and after making the requisite
determinations set forth in (a) above, the Depositary may distribute the
property so received to the Holders of record as of the ADS Record Date, in
proportion to the number of ADSs held by such Holders respectively and in such
manner as the Depositary may deem practicable for accomplishing such
distribution (i) upon receipt of payment or net of the applicable fees and
charges of, and expenses incurred by, the Depositary, and (ii) net of any taxes
and other governmental charges withheld. The Depositary may dispose of all or a
portion of the property so distributed and deposited, in such amounts and in
such manner (including public or private sale) as the Depositary may deem
practicable or necessary to satisfy any taxes (including applicable interest and
penalties) or other governmental charges applicable to the distribution.

          (c)  If (i) the Company does not request the Depositary to make such
distribution to Holders or requests not to make such distribution to Holders,
(ii) the Depositary does not receive satisfactory documentation within the terms
of Section 5.7, or (iii) the Depositary determines that all or a portion of such
distribution is not reasonably practicable or feasible, the Depositary shall
endeavor to sell or cause such property to be sold in a public or private sale,
at such place or places and upon such terms as it may deem proper and shall
distribute the net proceeds, if any, of such sale received by the Depositary
(net of applicable (a) fees and charges of, and expenses incurred by, the
Depositary and (b) taxes) to the Holders as of the ADS Record Date upon the
terms of Section 4.1. If the Depositary is unable to sell such property, the
Depositary may dispose of such property in any way it deems reasonably
practicable under the circumstances for nominal or no consideration and Holders
and Beneficial Owners shall have no rights thereto or arising therefrom.

     SECTION 4.6 Conversion of Foreign Currency. Whenever the Depositary or the
Custodian shall receive Foreign Currency from time to time, by way of dividends
or other distributions or the net proceeds from the sale of securities, property
or rights, and in the judgment of the Depositary such Foreign Currency can at
such time be converted on a practicable basis (by sale or in any other manner
that it may determine in accordance with applicable law) into Dollars
transferable to the United States and distributable to the Holders entitled
thereto, the Depositary shall convert or cause to be converted, by sale or in
any other manner that it may determine, such Foreign Currency into Dollars, and
shall distribute such Dollars (net of any fees, expenses, taxes or other
governmental charges incurred in the process of such conversion) in accordance
with the terms of the applicable sections of this Deposit Agreement. If the
Depositary shall have distributed warrants or other instruments that entitle the
holders thereof to such Dollars, the Depositary shall distribute such Dollars to
the holders of such warrants and/or instruments

                                       17
<PAGE>

upon surrender thereof for cancellation, in either case without liability for
interest thereon. Such distribution may be made upon an averaged or other
practicable basis without regard to any distinctions among Holders on account of
exchange restrictions, the date of delivery of any Receipt or otherwise.

          Holders understand that in converting Foreign Currency, amounts
received on conversion are calculated at a rate which may exceed the number of
decimal places used by the Depositary to report distribution rates (which in any
case will not be less than two decimal places). Any excess amount may be
retained by the Depositary as an additional cost of conversion, irrespective of
any other fees and expenses payable or owing hereunder and shall not be subject
to escheatment.

          If such conversion or distribution can be effected only with the
approval or license of any government or agency thereof, the Depositary may file
such application for approval or license, if any, as it may deem necessary,
practicable and at nominal cost and expense. Nothing herein shall obligate the
Depositary to file or cause to be filed, or to seek effectiveness of any such
application or license.

          If at any time the Depositary shall determine that in its judgment the
conversion of any Foreign Currency and the transfer and distribution of proceeds
of such conversion received by the Depositary is not practical or lawful, or if
any approval or license of any governmental authority or agency thereof that is
required for such conversion, transfer and distribution is denied, or not
obtainable at a reasonable cost, within a reasonable period or otherwise sought,
the Depositary shall, in its sole discretion but subject to applicable laws and
regulations, either (i) distribute the foreign currency (or an appropriate
document evidencing the right to receive such foreign currency) received by the
Depositary to the Holders entitled to receive such foreign currency, or (ii)
hold such foreign currency uninvested and without liability for interest thereon
for the respective accounts of the Holders entitled to receive the same.

     SECTION 4.7 Fixing of Record Date. Whenever necessary in connection with
any distribution (whether in cash, Shares, rights, or other distribution), or
whenever for any reason the Depositary causes a change in the number of Shares
that are represented by each American Depositary Share, or whenever the
Depositary shall receive notice of any meeting of or solicitation of holders of
Shares or other Deposited Securities, or whenever the Depositary shall find it
necessary or convenient, the Depositary shall fix a record date (the "ADS Record
Date"), as close as practicable to the record date fixed by the Company with
respect to the Shares, for the determination of the Holders who shall be
entitled to receive such distribution, to give instructions for the exercise of
voting rights at any such meeting, or to give or withhold such consent, or to
receive such notice or solicitation or to otherwise take action, or to exercise
the rights of Holders with respect to such changed number of Shares represented
by each American Depositary Share. Subject to applicable law and the provisions
of Sections 4.1 through 4.6 and to the other terms and conditions of this
Deposit Agreement, only the Holders of record at the close of business in New
York on such ADS Record Date shall be entitled to receive such distribution, to
give such voting instructions, to receive such notice or solicitation, or
otherwise take action.

     SECTION 4.8 Voting of Deposited Securities. Subject to the next sentence,
as soon as practicable after receipt of notice of any meeting at which the
holders of Shares are entitled to vote, or of solicitation of consents or
proxies from holders of Shares or other Deposited Securities, the Depositary
shall fix the ADS Record Date in respect of such meeting or solicitation of
consent or proxy. The Depositary shall, if requested by the Company in writing
in a timely manner (the Depositary having no obligation to take any further
action if the request shall not have been received by the Depositary at least
30 days prior to the date of such vote or meeting) and at the Company's expense
and provided no U.S. legal prohibitions exist, mail by regular, ordinary mail
delivery (or by electronic mail or as otherwise may be agreed between the
Company and the Depositary in writing from time to time) or otherwise distribute

                                       18
<PAGE>

to Holders as of the ADS Record Date: (a) such notice of meeting or solicitation
of consent or proxy; (b) a statement that the Holders at the close of business
on the ADS Record Date will be entitled, subject to any applicable law, the
Company's Memorandum of Association and Bye-laws and the provisions of or
governing the Deposited Securities (which provisions, if any, shall be
summarized in pertinent part by the Company), to instruct the Depositary as to
the exercise of the voting rights, if any, pertaining to the Shares or other
Deposited Securities represented by such Holder's American Depositary Shares;
and (c) a brief statement as to the manner in which such instructions may be
given. Voting instructions may be given only in respect of a number of American
Depositary Shares representing an integral number of Shares or other Deposited
Securities. Upon the timely receipt of written instructions of a Holder of
American Depositary Shares on the ADS Record Date of voting instructions in the
manner specified by the Depositary, the Depositary shall endeavor, insofar as
practicable and permitted under applicable law, the provisions of this Deposit
Agreement, the Company's Bye-laws and the provisions of or governing the
Deposited Securities, to vote or cause the Custodian to vote the Shares and/or
other Deposited Securities (in person or by proxy) represented by American
Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt in accordance with such voting
instructions.

          Neither the Depositary nor the Custodian shall, under any
circumstances exercise any discretion as to voting, and neither the Depositary
nor the Custodian shall vote, or attempt to exercise the right to vote, or in
any way make use of for purposes of establishing a quorum or otherwise, the
Shares or other Deposited Securities represented by ADSs except pursuant to and
in accordance with such written instructions from Holders.

          There can be no assurance that Holders or Beneficial Owners generally
or any Holder or Beneficial Owner in particular will receive the notice
described above with sufficient time to enable the Holder to return voting
instructions to the Depositary in a timely manner.

          Notwithstanding the above, save for applicable provisions of the law
of Bermuda , and in accordance with the terms of Section 5.3, the Depositary
shall not be liable for any failure to carry out any instructions to vote any of
the Deposited Securities or the manner in which such vote is cast or the effect
of any such vote.

     SECTION 4.9 Changes Affecting Deposited Securities. Upon any change in par
value, split-up, subdivision, cancellation, consolidation or any other
reclassification of Deposited Securities, or upon any recapitalization,
reorganization, amalgamation, merger or consolidation or sale of assets
affecting the Company or to which it is otherwise a party, any securities which
shall be received by the Depositary or the Custodian in exchange for, or in
conversion of or replacement or otherwise in respect of, such Deposited
Securities shall, to the extent permitted by law, be treated as new Deposited
Securities under this Deposit Agreement, and the Receipts shall, subject to the
provisions of this Deposit Agreement and applicable law, evidence American
Depositary Shares representing the right to receive such additional securities.
Alternatively, the Depositary may, with the Company's approval, and shall, if
the Company shall so request, subject to the terms of the Deposit Agreement and
receipt of an opinion of counsel to the Company furnished at the Company's
expense satisfactory to the Depositary that such distributions are not in
violation of any applicable laws or regulations, execute and deliver additional
Receipts as in the case of a stock dividend on the Shares, or call for the
surrender of outstanding Receipts to be exchanged for new Receipts, in either
case, as well as in the event of newly deposited Shares, with necessary
modifications to the form of Receipt contained in Exhibit A hereto, specifically
describing such new Deposited Securities and/or corporate change. The Company
agrees to, jointly with the Depositary, amend the Registration Statement on Form
F-6 as filed with the Commission to permit the issuance of such new form of
Receipts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any security so
received may not be lawfully distributed to some or all Holders, the Depositary
may, with the Company's approval, and

                                       19
<PAGE>

shall, if the Company requests, subject to receipt of an opinion of the
Company's counsel furnished at the Company's expense satisfactory to the
Depositary that such action is not in violation of any applicable laws or
regulations, sell such securities at public or private sale, at such place or
places and upon such terms as it may deem proper and may allocate the net
proceeds of such sales (net of (a) fees and charges of, and expenses incurred
by, the Depositary and (b) taxes) for the account of the Holders otherwise
entitled to such securities upon an averaged or other practicable basis without
regard to any distinctions among such Holders and distribute the net proceeds so
allocated to the extent practicable as in the case of a distribution received in
cash pursuant to Section 4.1. The Depositary shall not be responsible for
(i) any failure to determine that it may be lawful or feasible to make such
securities available to Holders in general or to any Holder in particular,
(ii) any foreign exchange exposure or loss incurred in connection with such
sale, or (iii) any liability to the purchaser of such securities.

     SECTION 4.10 Available Information. The Company is subject to the periodic
reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and accordingly files certain
information with the Commission. These reports and documents can be inspected
and copied at the public reference facilities maintained by the Commission
located at 100 F Street, N.E., Washington D.C. 20549, U.S.A.

     SECTION 4.11 Reports. The Depositary shall make available during normal
business hour on any Business Day for inspection by Holders at its Corporate
Trust Office any reports and communications, including any proxy soliciting
materials, received from the Company which are both (a) received by the
Depositary, the Custodian, or the nominee of either of them as the holder of the
Deposited Securities and (b) made generally available to the holders of such
Deposited Securities by the Company. The Company agrees to provide to the
Depositary, at the Company's expense, all documents that it provides to the
Custodian. The Depositary shall, at the expense of the Company and in accordance
with Section 5.6, also mail by regular, ordinary mail delivery or by electronic
transmission (if agreed by the Company and the Depositary) and unless otherwise
agreed in writing by the Company and the Depositary, to Holders copies of such
reports when furnished by the Company pursuant to Section 5.6.

     SECTION 4.12 List of Holders. Promptly upon written request by the Company,
the Depositary shall, at the expense of the Company, furnish to it a list, as of
a recent date, of the names, addresses and holdings of American Depositary
Shares by all persons in whose names Receipts are registered on the books of the
Depositary.

     SECTION 4.13 Taxation; Withholding. The Depositary will, and will instruct
the Custodian to, forward to the Company or its agents such information from its
records as the Company may reasonably request to enable the Company or its
agents to file necessary tax reports with governmental authorities or agencies.
The Depositary, the Custodian or the Company and its agents may, but shall not
be obligated to, file such reports as are necessary to reduce or eliminate
applicable taxes on dividends and on other distributions in respect of Deposited
Securities under applicable tax treaties or laws for the Holders and Beneficial
Owners. Holders and Beneficial Owners of American Depositary Shares may be
required from time to time, and in a timely manner, to file such proof of
taxpayer status, residence and beneficial ownership (as applicable), to execute
such certificates and to make such representations and warranties, or to provide
any other information or documents, as the Depositary or the Custodian may deem
necessary or proper to fulfill the Depositary's or the Custodian's obligations
under applicable law. The Holders and Beneficial Owners shall indemnify the
Depositary, the Company, the Custodian and any of their respective directors,
employees, agents and Affiliates against, and hold each of them harmless from,
any claims by any governmental authority with respect to taxes, additions to
tax, penalties or interest arising out of any refund of taxes, reduced rate of
withholding at source or other tax benefit obtained.

                                       20
<PAGE>

          The Company shall remit to the appropriate governmental authority or
agency any amounts required to be withheld by the Company and owing to such
governmental authority or agency. Upon any such withholding, the Company shall
remit to the Depositary information about such taxes or governmental charges
withheld or paid, and, if so requested, the tax receipt (or other proof of
payment to the applicable governmental authority) therefor, in each case, in a
form satisfactory to the Depositary. The Depositary shall, to the extent
required by U.S. law, report to Holders: (i) any taxes withheld by it; (ii) any
taxes withheld by the Custodian, subject to information being provided to the
Depositary by the Custodian; and (iii) any taxes withheld by the Company,
subject to information being provided to the Depositary by the Company. The
Depositary and the Custodian shall not be required to provide the Holders with
any evidence of the remittance by the Company (or its agents) of any taxes
withheld, or of the payment of taxes by the Company, except to the extent the
evidence is provided by the Company to the Depositary. Neither the Depositary
nor the Custodian shall be liable for the failure by any Holder or Beneficial
Owner to obtain the benefits of credits on the basis of non-U.S. tax paid
against such Holder's or Beneficial Owner's income tax liability.

          In the event that the Depositary determines that any distribution in
property (including Shares and rights to subscribe therefor) is subject to any
tax or other governmental charge which the Depositary is obligated to withhold,
the Depositary shall withhold the amount required to be withheld and may by
public or private sale dispose of all or a portion of such property (including
Shares and rights to subscribe therefor) in such amounts and in such manner as
the Depositary deems necessary and practicable to pay such taxes or charges and
the Depositary shall distribute the net proceeds of any such sale after
deduction of such taxes or charges to the Holders entitled thereto in proportion
to the number of American Depositary Shares held by them respectively.

          The Depositary is under no obligation to provide the Holders and
Beneficial Owners with any information about the tax status of the Company. The
Depositary shall not incur any liability for any tax consequences that may be
incurred by Holders and Beneficial Owners on account of their ownership of the
American Depositary Shares.

                                   ARTICLE V.

                  THE DEPOSITARY, THE CUSTODIAN AND THE COMPANY

     SECTION 5.1 Maintenance of Office and Transfer Books by the Registrar.
Until termination of this Deposit Agreement in accordance with its terms, the
Depositary or if a Registrar for the Receipts shall have been appointed, the
Registrar shall maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, an
office and facilities for the execution and delivery, registration, registration
of transfers, combination and split-up of Receipts, the surrender of Receipts
and the delivery and withdrawal of Deposited Securities in accordance with the
provisions of this Deposit Agreement.

          The Depositary or the Registrar as applicable, shall keep books for
the registration of Receipts and transfers of Receipts which at all reasonable
times shall be open for inspection by the Company and by the Holders of such
Receipts, provided that such inspection shall not be, to the Depositary's or the
Registrar's knowledge, for the purpose of communicating with Holders of such
Receipts in the interest of a business or object other than the business of the
Company or other than a matter related to this Deposit Agreement or the
Receipts.

          The Depositary or the Registrar, as applicable, may close the transfer
books with respect to the Receipts, at any time or from time to time, when
deemed necessary or advisable by it in connection with the performance of its
duties hereunder.

                                       21
<PAGE>

          If any Receipts or the American Depositary Shares evidenced thereby
are listed on one or more stock exchanges or automated quotation systems in the
United States, the Depositary shall act as Registrar or appoint a Registrar or
one or more co-registrars for registration of Receipts and transfers,
combinations and split-ups, and to countersign such Receipts in accordance with
any requirements of such exchanges or systems. Such Registrar or co-registrars
may be removed and a substitute or substitutes appointed by the Depositary.

          If any Receipts or the American Depositary Shares evidenced thereby
are listed on one or more securities exchanges, markets or automated quotation
systems, (i) the Depositary shall be entitled to, and shall, take or refrain
from taking such action(s) as it may deem necessary or appropriate to comply
with the requirements of such securities exchange(s), market(s) or automated
quotation system(s) applicable to it, notwithstanding any other provision of
this Deposit Agreement; and (ii) upon the reasonable request of the Depositary,
the Company shall provide the Depositary such information and assistance as may
be reasonably necessary for the Depositary to comply with such requirements, to
the extent that the Company may lawfully do so.

     SECTION 5.2 Exoneration. Neither the Depositary, the Custodian or the
Company shall be obligated to do or perform any act which is inconsistent with
the provisions of this Deposit Agreement or shall incur any liability (i) if the
Depositary, the Custodian or the Company or their respective controlling persons
or agents shall be prevented or forbidden from, or delayed in, doing or
performing any act or thing required by the terms of this Deposit Agreement, by
reason of any provision of any present or future law or regulation of the United
States or any state thereof, Bermuda, Ireland or any other country, or of any
other governmental authority or regulatory authority or stock exchange, or on
account of the possible criminal or civil penalties or restraint, or by reason
of any provision, present or future, of the Company's Memorandum of Association
or Bye-laws or any provision of or governing any Deposited Securities, or by
reason of any act of God or war or other circumstances beyond its control
(including, without limitation, nationalization, expropriation, currency
restrictions, work stoppage, strikes, civil unrest, revolutions, rebellions,
explosions and computer failure), (ii) by reason of any exercise of, or failure
to exercise, any discretion provided for in this Deposit Agreement or in the
Company's Memorandum of Association or Bye-laws or provisions of or governing
Deposited Securities, (iii) for any action or inaction of the Depositary, the
Custodian or the Company or their respective controlling persons or agents in
reliance upon the advice of or information from legal counsel, accountants, any
person presenting Shares for deposit, any Holder, any Beneficial Owner or
authorized representative thereof, or any other person believed by it in good
faith to be competent to give such advice or information, (iv) for the inability
by a Holder or Beneficial Owner to benefit from any distribution, offering,
right or other benefit which is made available to holders of Deposited
Securities but is not, under the terms of this Deposit Agreement, made available
to Holders of American Depositary Shares or (v) for any special, consequential,
indirect or punitive damages for any breach of the terms of this Deposit
Agreement or otherwise.

          The Depositary, its controlling persons, its agents, the Custodian and
the Company, its controlling persons and its agents may rely and shall be
protected in acting upon any written notice, request, opinion or other document
believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper
party or parties.

          No disclaimer of liability under the Securities Act is intended by any
provision of this Deposit Agreement.

     SECTION 5.3 Standard of Care. The Company and the Depositary and their
respective agents assume no obligation and shall not be subject to any liability
under this Deposit Agreement or any

                                       22
<PAGE>

Receipts to any Holder(s) or Beneficial Owner(s) or other persons, except in
accordance with Section 5.8 hereof, provided, that the Company and the
Depositary and their respective agents agree to perform their respective
obligations specifically set forth in this Deposit Agreement or the applicable
ADRs without gross negligence or bad faith.

          Without limitation of the foregoing, neither the Depositary, nor the
Company, nor any of their respective controlling persons, or agents, shall be
under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any action, suit or other
proceeding in respect of any Deposited Securities or in respect of the Receipts,
which in its opinion may involve it in expense or liability, unless indemnity
satisfactory to it against all expenses (including fees and disbursements of
counsel) and liabilities be furnished as often as may be required (and no
Custodian shall be under any obligation whatsoever with respect to such
proceedings, the responsibility of the Custodian being solely to the
Depositary).

          The Depositary and its agents shall not be liable for any failure to
carry out any instructions to vote any of the Deposited Securities, or for the
manner in which any vote is cast or the effects of any vote. The Depositary
shall not incur any liability for any failure to determine that any distribution
or action may be lawful or reasonably practicable, for the content of any
information submitted to it by the Company for distribution to the Holders or
for any inaccuracy of any translation thereof, for any investment risk
associated with acquiring an interest in the Deposited Securities, for the
validity or worth of the Deposited Securities or for any tax consequences that
may result from the ownership of ADSs, Shares or Deposited Securities, for the
credit-worthiness of any third party, for allowing any rights to lapse upon the
terms of this Deposit Agreement or for the failure or timeliness of any notice
from the Company, or for any action or non action by it in reliance upon the
opinion, advice of or information from legal counsel, accountants, any person
representing Shares for deposit, any Holder or any other person believed by it
in good faith to be competent to give such advice or information. The Depositary
and its agents shall not be liable for any acts or omissions made by a successor
depositary whether in connection with a previous act or omission of the
Depositary or in connection with any matter arising wholly after the removal or
resignation of the Depositary, provided that in connection with the issue out of
which such potential liability arises the Depositary performed its obligations
without gross negligence or bad faith while it acted as Depositary.

     SECTION 5.4 Resignation and Removal of the Depositary; Appointment of
Successor Depositary.The Depositary may at any time resign as Depositary
hereunder by written notice of resignation delivered to the Company, such
resignation to be effective on the earlier of (i) the 90th day after delivery
thereof to the Company (whereupon the Depositary shall, in the event no
successor depositary has been appointed by the Company, be entitled to take the
actions contemplated in Section 6.2 hereof), or (ii) upon the appointment by the
Company of a successor depositary and its acceptance of such appointment as
hereinafter provided, save that, any amounts, fees, costs or expenses owed to
the Depositary hereunder or in accordance with any other agreements otherwise
agreed in writing between the Company and the Depositary from time to time shall
be paid to the Depositary prior to such resignation.

          The Company shall use reasonable efforts to appoint such successor
depositary, and give notice to the Depositary of such appointment, not more than
90 days after delivery by the Depositary of written notice of resignation as
provided in this paragraph. In the event that notice of the appointment of a
successor depositary is not provided by the Company in accordance with the
preceding sentence, the Depositary shall be entitled to take the actions
contemplated in Section 6.2 hereof.

          The Depositary may at any time be removed by the Company by written
notice of such removal, which removal shall be effective on the later of (i) the
90th day after delivery thereof to the

                                       23
<PAGE>

Depositary (whereupon the Depositary shall be entitled to take the actions
contemplated in Section 6.2 hereof), or (ii) upon the appointment by the Company
of a successor depositary and its acceptance of such appointment as hereinafter
provided, save that, any amounts, fees, costs or expenses owed to the Depositary
hereunder or in accordance with any other agreements otherwise agreed in writing
between the Company and the Depositary from time to time shall be paid to the
Depositary prior to such removal.

          In case at any time the Depositary acting hereunder shall resign or be
removed, the Company shall use its best efforts to appoint a successor
depositary, which shall be a bank or trust company having an office in the
Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York. Every successor depositary shall be
required by the Company to execute and deliver to its predecessor and to the
Company an instrument in writing accepting its appointment hereunder, and
thereupon such successor depositary, without any further act or deed (except as
required by applicable law), shall become fully vested with all the rights,
powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor. The predecessor depositary,
upon payment of all sums due to it and on the written request of the Company,
shall (i) execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor all
rights and powers of such predecessor hereunder (other than as contemplated in
Sections 5.8 and 5.9), (ii) duly assign, transfer and deliver all right, title
and interest to the Deposited Securities to such successor, and (iii) deliver to
such successor a list of the Holders of all outstanding Receipts and such other
information relating to Receipts and Holders thereof as the successor may
reasonably request. Any such successor depositary shall promptly mail notice of
its appointment to such Holders.

          Any corporation into or with which the Depositary may be merged or
consolidated shall be the successor of the Depositary without the execution or
filing of any document or any further act.

     SECTION 5.5 The Custodian. The Custodian or its successors in acting
hereunder shall be subject at all times and in all respects to the direction of
the Depositary for the Deposited Securities for which the Custodian acts as
custodian and shall be responsible solely to it. If any Custodian resigns or is
discharged from its duties hereunder with respect to any Deposited Securities
and no other Custodian has previously been appointed hereunder, the Depositary
shall promptly appoint a substitute custodian. The Depositary shall require such
resigning or discharged Custodian to deliver the Deposited Securities held by
it, together with all such records maintained by it as Custodian with respect to
such Deposited Securities as the Depositary may request, to the Custodian
designated by the Depositary. Whenever the Depositary determines, in its
discretion, that it is appropriate to do so, it may appoint an additional entity
to act as Custodian with respect to any Deposited Securities, or discharge the
Custodian with respect to any Deposited Securities and appoint a substitute
custodian, which shall thereafter be Custodian hereunder with respect to the
Deposited Securities. After any such change, the Depositary shall give notice
thereof in writing to all Holders.

          Upon the appointment of any successor depositary, any Custodian then
acting hereunder shall, unless otherwise instructed by the Depositary, continue
to be the Custodian of the Deposited Securities without any further act or
writing and shall be subject to the direction of the successor depositary. The
successor depositary so appointed shall, nevertheless, on the written request of
any Custodian, execute and deliver to such Custodian all such instruments as may
be proper to give to such Custodian full and complete power and authority to act
on the direction of such successor depositary.

     SECTION 5.6 Notices and Reports. On or before the first date on which the
Company gives notice, by publication or otherwise, of any meeting of holders of
Shares or other Deposited Securities, or of any adjourned meeting of such
holders, or of the taking of any action by such holders other than at a meeting,
or of the taking of any action in respect of any cash or other distributions or
the offering of any rights in respect of Deposited Securities, the Company shall
transmit to the Depositary

                                       24
<PAGE>

and the Custodian a copy of the notice thereof in English but otherwise in the
form given or to be given to holders of Shares or other Deposited Securities.
The Company shall also furnish to the Custodian and the Depositary a summary, in
English, of any applicable provisions or proposed provisions of the Company's
Bye-laws that may be relevant or pertain to such notice of meeting or be the
subject of a vote thereat.

          The Company will also transmit to the Depositary (a) English language
versions of the other notices, reports and communications which are made
generally available by the Company to holders of its Shares or other Deposited
Securities and (b) English language versions of the Company's annual and other
reports prepared in accordance with the applicable requirements of the
Commission. The Depositary shall arrange, at the request of the Company and at
the Company's expense, for the mailing of copies thereof to all Holders, or by
any other means as agreed between the Company and the Depositary (at the
Company's expense) or make such notices, reports and other communications
available for inspection by all Holders, provided, that, the Depositary shall
have received evidence sufficiently satisfactory to it, including in the form of
an opinion of local and/or U.S. counsel or counsel of other applicable
jurisdiction, furnished at the expense of the Company, as the Depositary in its
discretion so requests, that the distribution of such notices, reports and any
such other communications to Holders from time to time is valid and does not or
will not infringe any local, U.S. or other applicable jurisdiction regulatory
restrictions or requirements if so distributed and made available to Holders.
The Company will timely provide the Depositary with the quantity of such
notices, reports, and communications, as requested by the Depositary from time
to time, in order for the Depositary to effect such mailings. The Company has
delivered to the Depositary and the Custodian a copy of the Company's Bye-laws
along with the provisions of or governing the Shares and any other Deposited
Securities issued by the Company or any Affiliate of the Company, in connection
with the Shares, and promptly upon any amendment thereto or change therein, the
Company shall deliver to the Depositary and the Custodian a copy of such
amendment thereto or change therein. The Depositary may rely upon such copy for
all purposes of this Deposit Agreement.

          The Depositary will make available a copy of any such notices, reports
or communications issued by the Company and delivered to the Depositary for
inspection by the Holders of the Receipts evidencing the American Depositary
Shares representing such Shares governed by such provisions at the Depositary's
Corporate Trust Office, at the office of the Custodian and at any other
designated transfer office.

     SECTION 5.7 Issuance of Additional Shares, ADSs etc. The Company agrees
that in the event it or any of its Affiliates proposes (i) an issuance, sale or
distribution of additional Shares, (ii) an offering of rights to subscribe for
Shares or other Deposited Securities, (iii) an issuance of securities
convertible into or exchangeable for Shares, (iv) an issuance of rights to
subscribe for securities convertible into or exchangeable for Shares, (v) an
elective dividend of cash or Shares, (vi) a redemption of Deposited Securities,
(vii) a meeting of holders of Deposited Securities, or solicitation of consents
or proxies, relating to any reclassification of securities, merger, amalgamation
or consolidation or transfer of assets or (viii) any reclassification,
recapitalization, reorganization, merger, amalgamation, consolidation or sale of
assets which affects the Deposited Securities, it will obtain U.S. legal advice
and take all steps necessary to ensure that the application of the proposed
transaction to Holders and Beneficial Owners does not violate the registration
provisions of the Securities Act, or any other applicable laws (including,
without limitation, the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, the Exchange
Act or the securities laws of the states of the United States). In support of
the foregoing, the Company will furnish to the Depositary, at its own expense,
(a) a written opinion of U.S. counsel (satisfactory to the Depositary)

                                       25
<PAGE>

stating whether or not application of such transaction to Holders and Beneficial
Owners (1) requires a registration statement under the Securities Act to be in
effect or (2) is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act
and (b) an opinion of Bermuda counsel (satisfactory to the Depositary) stating
that (1) making the transaction available to Holders and Beneficial Owners does
not violate the laws or regulations of Bermuda and (2) a written opinion of
Bermuda counsel (satisfactory to the Depositary) stating that all requisite
regulatory consents and approvals have been obtained in Bermuda. If the filing
of a registration statement is required, the Depositary shall not have any
obligation to proceed with the transaction unless it shall have received
evidence reasonably satisfactory to it that such registration statement has been
declared effective and that such distribution is in accordance with all
applicable laws or regulations. If, being advised by counsel, the Company
determines that a transaction is required to be registered under the Securities
Act, the Company will either (i) register such transaction to the extent
necessary, (ii) alter the terms of the transaction to avoid the registration
requirements of the Securities Act or (iii) direct the Depositary to take
specific measures, in each case as contemplated in this Deposit Agreement, to
prevent such transaction from violating the registration requirements of the
Securities Act.

          The Company agrees with the Depositary that neither the Company nor
any of its Affiliates will at any time (i) deposit any Shares or other Deposited
Securities, either upon original issuance or upon a sale of Shares or other
Deposited Securities previously issued and reacquired by the Company or by any
such Affiliate, or (ii) issue additional Shares, rights to subscribe for such
Shares, securities convertible into or exchangeable for Shares or rights to
subscribe for such securities, unless such transaction and the securities
issuable in such transaction are exempt from registration under the Securities
Act or have been registered under the Securities Act (and such registration
statement has been declared effective).

          Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Deposit Agreement,
nothing in this Deposit Agreement shall be deemed to obligate the Company to
file any registration statement in respect of any proposed transaction.

     SECTION 5.8 Indemnification. The Company agrees to indemnify the
Depositary, any Custodian and each of their respective directors, officers,
employees, agents and Affiliates against, and hold each of them harmless from,
any direct losses, liabilities, taxes, costs, demands and any charges or
expenses of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, reasonable
attorney's fees and expenses and, in each case, fees and expenses of counsel, in
each case, irrevocable value added tax and any similar tax charged or otherwise
imposed in respect thereof) (collectively referred to as "Losses") which the
Depositary or any agent thereof may incur or which may be made against it as a
result of or in connection with its appointment or the exercise of its powers
and duties under this Agreement or that may arise (a) out of or in connection
with any offer, issuance, sale, resale, transfer, deposit or withdrawal of
Receipts, American Depositary Shares, the Shares, or other Deposited Securities,
as the case may be, (b) out of or in connection with any offering documents in
respect thereof or (c) out of or in connection with acts performed or omitted,
including, but not limited to, any delivery by the Depositary on behalf of the
Company of information regarding the Company in connection with this Deposit
Agreement, the Receipts, the American Depositary Shares, the Shares, or any
Deposited Securities, in any such case (i) by the Depositary, the Custodian or
any of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and Affiliates,
except to the extent any such Losses are due to the gross negligence or bad
faith of any of them, or (ii) by the Company or any of its directors, officers,
employees, agents and Affiliates; provided, however, that the foregoing
indemnity shall not apply or be of any effect to the extent any such Losses
arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
or omission or alleged omission of information in any document or other
conveyance of information in connection with the offer, issuance, sale, resale,
transfer, deposit or withdrawal of any Receipts, American Depositary Shares,
Shares, or other Deposited Securities made in reliance upon and in conformity
with information regarding the Depositary provided by the Depositary. The
Depositary agrees to indemnify the Company and any of its respective directors,
officers, employees, agents and Affiliates against and hold each of them
harmless

                                       26
<PAGE>

from any direct Losses which may arise out of acts performed or omitted
to be performed by the Depositary due to the gross negligence or bad faith of
the Depositary or any of their respective directors, officers or employees,
agents and/or Affiliates. In no event shall the Depositary or any of its
directors, officers, employees, agents and/or Affiliates be liable for any
indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages to the Company, Holders,
Beneficial Owners or any other person.

          Any person seeking indemnification hereunder (an "Indemnified Person")
shall notify the person from whom it is seeking indemnification (the
"Indemnifying Person") of the commencement of any indemnifiable action or claim
promptly after such Indemnified Person becomes aware of such commencement
(provided that the failure to make such notification shall not affect such
Indemnified Person's rights to indemnification except to the extent the
Indemnifying Person is materially prejudiced by such failure) and shall consult
in good faith with the Indemnifying Person as to the conduct of the defense of
such action or claim that may give rise to an indemnity hereunder, which defense
shall be reasonable under the circumstances. No Indemnified Person shall
compromise or settle any action or claim that may give rise to an indemnity
hereunder without the consent of the Indemnifying Person, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld.

          The obligations set forth in this Section shall survive the
termination of this Deposit Agreement and the succession or substitution of any
party hereto.

     SECTION 5.9 Fees and Charges of Depositary. The Company, the Holders, the
Beneficial Owners, and persons surrendering ADSs for cancellation and withdrawal
of Deposited Securities shall be required to pay to the Depositary the
Depositary's fees and related charges identified as payable by them respectively
as provided for under Article (9). All fees and charges so payable may, at any
time and from time to time, be changed by agreement between the Depositary and
the Company, but, in the case of fees and charges payable by Holders and
Beneficial Owners, only in the manner contemplated in Section 6.1.

          The Depositary and the Company may reach separate agreement in
relation to the payment of any additional remuneration to the Depositary in
respect of any exceptional duties which the Depositary finds necessary or
desirable and agreed by both parties in the performance of its obligations
hereunder and in respect of the actual costs and expenses of the Depositary in
respect of any notices required to be given to the Holders in accordance with
Article (20).

          In connection with any payment by the Company to the Depositary:

               (i)  all fees, taxes, duties, charges, costs and expenses which
                    are payable by the Company shall be paid or be procured to
                    be paid by the Company (and any such amounts which are paid
                    by the Depositary shall be reimbursed to the Depositary by
                    the Company upon demand therefor);

               (ii) such payment shall be subject to all necessary applicable
                    exchange control and other consents and approvals having
                    been obtained. The Company undertakes to use its reasonable
                    endeavours to obtain all necessary approvals that are
                    required to be obtained by it in this connection; and

               (iii) the Depositary may request, in its sole but reasonable
                    discretion after reasonable consultation with the Company,
                    an opinion of counsel regarding U.S. law, the laws of
                    Bermuda or of any other relevant jurisdiction, to be
                    furnished at the expense of the Company, if at any

                                       27
<PAGE>

                    time it deems it necessary to seek such an opinion of
                    counsel regarding the validity of any action to be taken or
                    instructed to be taken under this Agreement.

          The Company agrees to promptly pay to the Depositary such other fees,
charges and expenses and to reimburse the Depositary for such properly
documented out-of-pocket expenses as the Depositary and the Company may agree to
in writing from time to time. Responsibility for payment of such charges may at
any time and from time to time be changed by agreement between the Company and
the Depositary.

          All payments by the Company to the Depositary under this Clause 5.9
shall be paid without set-off or counterclaim, and free and clear of and without
deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future taxes,
levies, imports, duties, fees, assessments or other charges of whatever nature,
imposed by Bermuda or by any department, agency or other political subdivision
or taxing authority thereof or therein, and all interest, penalties or similar
liabilities with respect thereto.

          The right of the Depositary to receive payment of fees, charges and
expenses as provided above shall survive the termination of this Deposit
Agreement. As to any Depositary, upon the resignation or removal of such
Depositary as described in Section 5.4 hereof, such right shall extend for those
fees, charges and expenses incurred prior to the effectiveness of such
resignation or removal.

     SECTION 5.10 Restricted Securities Owners/Ownership Restrictions. From time
to time or upon the reasonable request of the Depositary, the Company shall
provide to the Depositary a list setting forth, to the actual knowledge of the
Company, those persons or entities who beneficially own Restricted Securities
and the Company shall update that list on a regular basis. The Depositary may
rely on such a list or update but shall not be liable for any action or omission
made in reliance thereon. The Company agrees to advise in writing each of the
persons or entities who, to the knowledge of the Company, holds Restricted
Securities that such Restricted Securities are ineligible for deposit hereunder
(except under the circumstances contemplated in Section 2.11) and, to the extent
practicable, shall require each of such persons to represent in writing that
such person will not deposit Restricted Securities hereunder (except under the
circumstances contemplated in Section 2.11). Each Holder and Beneficial Owner
acknowledges and agrees that each Receipt, and the terms upon which it is held
by such Holder or Beneficial Owner, are subject to the Company's Memorandum of
Association and Bye-laws, and that so long as the Company's Memorandum of
Association or Bye-laws provide a means by which the Company may require Holders
or Beneficial Owners to take certain actions with respect to their holdings,
beneficial ownership or control over the Company's securities (including,
without limitation, obligations imposed on Competitors (as defined in the
Company's Bye-laws)), such Holders or Beneficial Owners will be bound by such
obligations. The Company and the Depositary may implement such other procedures
as necessary in order to conform the rights and responsibilities of Holders or
Beneficial Owners to ensure monitoring, compliance and enforcement of the
Company's Memorandum of Association or Bye-laws. The Company shall, in
accordance with Article (24), inform Owners and Beneficial Owners and the
Depositary of any other limitations on ownership of Shares that the Owners and
Beneficial Owners may be subject to by reason of the number of American
Depositary Shares held under the Memorandum of Association or Bye-laws of the
Company or applicable Bermuda law, as such restrictions may be in force from
time to time.

          The Company may, in its sole discretion, but subject to applicable
law, instruct the Depositary to take action with respect to the ownership
interest of any Holder or Beneficial Owner pursuant to the Company's Bye-laws,
including but not limited to, the removal or limitation of voting rights or the
mandatory sale or disposition on behalf of a Holder or Beneficial Owner of the
Shares

                                       28
<PAGE>

represented by the ADRs held by such Holder or Beneficial Owner in excess of
such limitations, if and to the extent such disposition is permitted by
applicable law and the Company's Memorandum of Association and Bye-laws;
provided that any such measures are practicable and can be undertaken without
undue burden or expense. The Depositary shall have no liability for any actions
taken in accordance with such instructions.

                                   ARTICLE VI.

                            AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

     SECTION 6.1 Amendment/Supplement. Subject to the terms and conditions of
this Section 6.1 and applicable law, the Receipts outstanding at any time, the
provisions of this Deposit Agreement and the form of Receipt attached hereto and
to be issued under the terms hereof may at any time and from time to time be
amended or supplemented by written agreement between the Company and the
Depositary in any respect which they may deem necessary or desirable and not
materially prejudicial to the Holders without the consent of the Holders or
Beneficial Owners. Any amendment or supplement which shall impose or increase
any fees or charges (other than charges in connection with foreign exchange
control regulations, and taxes and other governmental charges, delivery and
other such expenses payable by Holders or Beneficial Owners), or which shall
otherwise materially prejudice any substantial existing right of Holders or
Beneficial Owners, shall not, however, become effective as to outstanding
Receipts until 30 days after notice of such amendment or supplement shall have
been given to the Holders of outstanding Receipts. The parties hereto agree that
any amendments or supplements which (i) are reasonably necessary (as agreed by
the Company and the Depositary) in order for (a) the American Depositary Shares
to be registered on Form F-6 under the Securities Act or (b) the American
Depositary Shares or the Shares to be traded solely in electronic book-entry
form and (ii) do not in either such case impose or increase any fees or charges
to be borne by Holders, shall be deemed not to materially prejudice any
substantial rights of Holders or Beneficial Owners. Every Holder and Beneficial
Owner at the time any amendment or supplement so becomes effective shall be
deemed, by continuing to hold such American Depositary Share or Shares, to
consent and agree to such amendment or supplement and to be bound by the Deposit
Agreement as amended and supplemented thereby. In no event shall any amendment
or supplement impair the right of the Holder to surrender such Receipt and
receive therefor the Deposited Securities represented thereby, except in order
to comply with mandatory provisions of applicable law. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if any governmental body should adopt new laws, rules or regulations
which would require amendment or supplement of the Deposit Agreement to ensure
compliance therewith, the Company and the Depositary may amend or supplement the
Deposit Agreement and the Receipt at any time in accordance with such changed
laws, rules or regulations. Such amendment or supplement to the Deposit
Agreement in such circumstances may become effective before a notice of such
amendment or supplement is given to Holders or within any other period of time
as required for compliance with such laws, rules or regulations.

     SECTION 6.2 Termination. The Depositary shall, at any time at the written
direction of the Company, terminate this Deposit Agreement by mailing notice of
such termination to the Holders of all Receipts then outstanding at least 90
days prior to the date fixed in such notice for such termination, provided that,
the Depositary shall be reimbursed by the Company for any amounts, fees, costs
or expenses owed to it in accordance with the terms of this Deposit Agreement
and in accordance with any other agreements as otherwise agreed in writing
between the Company and the Depositary from time to time, prior to such
termination shall take effect. If 90 days shall have expired after (i) the
Depositary shall have delivered to the Company a written notice of its election
to resign, or (ii) the Company shall have delivered to the Depositary a written
notice of the removal of the Depositary, and in either case a successor
depositary shall not have been appointed and accepted its appointment as
provided in Section

                                       29
<PAGE>

5.4, the Depositary may terminate this Deposit Agreement by mailing notice of
such termination to the Holders of all Receipts then outstanding at least 30
days prior to the date fixed for such termination. On and after the date of
termination of this Deposit Agreement, the Holder will, upon surrender of such
Receipt at the Corporate Trust Office of the Depositary, upon the payment of the
charges of the Depositary for the surrender of Receipts referred to in Section
2.6 and subject to the conditions and restrictions therein set forth, and upon
payment of any applicable taxes or governmental charges, be entitled to
delivery, to him or upon his order, of the amount of Deposited Securities
represented by such Receipt. If any Receipts shall remain outstanding after the
date of termination of this Deposit Agreement, the Registrar thereafter shall
discontinue the registration of transfers of Receipts, and the Depositary shall
suspend the distribution of dividends to the Holders thereof, and shall not give
any further notices or perform any further acts under this Deposit Agreement,
except that the Depositary shall continue to collect dividends and other
distributions pertaining to Deposited Securities, shall sell rights or other
property as provided in this Deposit Agreement, and shall continue to deliver
Deposited Securities, subject to the conditions and restrictions set forth in
Section 2.6, together with any dividends or other distributions received with
respect thereto and the net proceeds of the sale of any rights or other
property, in exchange for Receipts surrendered to the Depositary (after
deducting, or charging, as the case may be, in each case, the charges of the
Depositary for the surrender of a Receipt, any expenses for the account of the
Holder in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement and
any applicable taxes or governmental charges or assessments). At any time after
the expiration of six months from the date of termination of this Deposit
Agreement, the Depositary may sell the Deposited Securities then held hereunder
and may thereafter hold uninvested the net proceeds of any such sale, together
with any other cash then held by it hereunder, in an unsegregated account,
without liability for interest for the pro rata benefit of the Holders of
Receipts whose Receipts have not theretofore been surrendered. After making such
sale, the Depositary shall be discharged from all obligations under this Deposit
Agreement with respect to the Receipts and the Shares, Deposited Securities and
American Depositary Shares, except to account for such net proceeds and other
cash (after deducting, or charging, as the case may be, in each case, the
charges of the Depositary for the surrender of a Receipt, any expenses for the
account of the Holder in accordance with the terms and conditions of this
Deposit Agreement and any applicable taxes or governmental charges or
assessments). Upon the termination of this Deposit Agreement, the Company shall
be discharged from all obligations under this Deposit Agreement except for its
obligations to the Depositary hereunder.

                                  ARTICLE VII.

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

     SECTION 7.1 Counterparts. This Deposit Agreement may be executed in any
number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of
such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Copies
of this Deposit Agreement shall be maintained with the Depositary and shall be
open to inspection by any Holder during business hours.

     SECTION 7.2 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Deposit Agreement is for the
exclusive benefit of the parties hereto (and their successors) and shall not be
deemed to give any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim whatsoever to any
other person, except to the extent specifically set forth in this Deposit
Agreement. Nothing in this Deposit Agreement shall be deemed to give rise to a
partnership or joint venture among the parties hereto nor establish a fiduciary
or similar relationship among the parties. The parties hereto acknowledge and
agree that (i) the Depositary and its Affiliates may at any time have multiple
banking relationships with the Company and its Affiliates, (ii) the Depositary
and its Affiliates may be engaged at any time in transactions in which parties
adverse to the Company or the Holders or Beneficial Owners may have interests
and (iii) nothing contained in this Agreement shall (a) preclude the

                                       30
<PAGE>

Depositary or any of its Affiliates from engaging in such transactions or
establishing or maintaining such relationships, or (b) obligate the Depositary
or any of its Affiliates to disclose such transactions or relationships or to
account for any profit made or payment received in such transactions or
relationships.

     SECTION 7.3 Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions
contained in this Deposit Agreement or in the Receipts should be or become
invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and
enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein or therein shall in
no way be affected, prejudiced or disturbed thereby.

     SECTION 7.4 Holders and Beneficial Owners as Parties; Binding Effect. The
Holders and Beneficial Owners from time to time of American Depositary Shares
shall be parties to the Deposit Agreement and shall be bound by all of the terms
and conditions hereof and of any Receipt by acceptance hereof or any beneficial
interest therein.

     SECTION 7.5 Notices. Any and all notices to be given to the Company shall
be deemed to have been duly given if personally delivered or sent by mail, air

the State of New York without reference to the principles of choice of law
thereof. Except as set forth in the following paragraph of this Section 7.6, the

                                       31
<PAGE>

and the Depositary agree that the federal or state courts in the City of
New York shall have non-exclusive jurisdiction to hear and determine any suit,
action or proceeding and to settle any dispute between them that may arise out
of or in connection with this Deposit Agreement and, for such purposes, each
irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of such courts. The
Company hereby irrevocably designates, appoints and empowers Puglisi &
Associates (the "Process Agent"), now at 850 Library Avenue, Suite 204, Newark,
DE 19711, United States of America, as its authorized agent to receive and
accept for and on its behalf, and on behalf of its properties, assets and
revenues, service by mail of any and all legal process, summons, notices and
documents that may be served in any suit, action or proceeding brought against
the Company in any federal or state court as described in the preceding sentence
or in the next paragraph of this Section 7.6. If for any reason the Process
Agent shall cease to be available to act as such, the Company agrees to
designate a new agent in The City of New York on the terms and for the purposes
of this Section 7.6 reasonably satisfactory to the Depositary. The Company
further hereby irrevocably consents and agrees to the service of any and all
legal process, summons, notices and documents in any suit, action or proceeding
against the Company, by service by mail of a copy thereof upon the Process Agent
(whether or not the appointment of such Process Agent shall for any reason prove
to be ineffective or such Process Agent shall fail to accept or acknowledge such
service), with a copy mailed to the Company by registered or certified air mail,
postage prepaid, to its address provided in Section 7.5 hereof. The Company
agrees that the failure of the Process Agent to give any notice of such service
to it shall not impair or affect in any way the validity of such service or any
judgment rendered in any action or proceeding based thereon.

          Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Depositary and the Company
unconditionally agree that in the event that a Holder or Beneficial Owner brings
a suit, action or proceeding against (a) the Company, (b) the Depositary in its
capacity as Depositary under this Deposit Agreement or (c) against both the
Company and the Depositary, in any state or federal court of the United States,
and the Depositary or the Company have any claim, for indemnification or
otherwise, against each other arising out of the subject matter of such suit,
action or proceeding, then the Company and the Depositary may pursue such claim
against each other in the state or federal court in the United States in which
such suit, action, or proceeding is pending, and for such purposes, the Company
and the Depositary irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of such
courts. The Company agrees that service of process upon the Process Agent in the
manner set forth in the preceding paragraph shall be effective service upon it
for any suit, action or proceeding brought against it as described in this
paragraph.

          The Company irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the
laying of venue of any actions, suits or proceedings brought in any court as
provided in this Section 7.6, and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally
waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action,
suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient
forum.

          The Company and the Depositary agree that, notwithstanding the
foregoing, with regard to any claim or dispute or difference of whatever nature
between the parties hereto arising directly or indirectly from the relationship
created by this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary, in its sole discretion, shall
be entitled to refer such dispute or difference for final settlement by
arbitration ("Arbitration") in accordance with the applicable rules of the
American Arbitration Association (the "Rules") then in force, by a sole
arbitrator appointed in accordance with the Rules. The seat and place of any
reference to Arbitration shall be New York, New York State. The procedural law
of any Arbitration shall be New York law and the language to be used in the
Arbitration shall be English. The fees of the arbitrator and other costs
incurred by the parties in connection with such Arbitration shall be paid by the
party that is unsuccessful in such Arbitration.

                              GENESIS LEASE LIMITED

                    (Incorporated under the laws of Bermuda)

          DEUTSCHE BANK TRUST COMPANY AMERICAS, as depositary (herein called the
"Depositary"), hereby certifies that ________________is the owner of
______________ American Depositary Shares (hereinafter "ADS"), representing
deposited common shares, each of Par Value of $0.001 including evidence of
rights to receive such common shares (the "Shares") of Genesis Lease Limited, a
company incorporated under the laws of Bermuda (the "Company"). As of the date
of the Deposit Agreement (hereinafter referred to), each ADS represents one
Share deposited under the Deposit Agreement with the Custodian which at the date
of execution of the Deposit Agreement is The Governer and Company of the Bank of
Ireland (the "Custodian"). The ratio of Depositary Shares to the Shares is
subject to subsequent amendment as provided in Article IV of the Deposit
Agreement. The Depositary's Corporate Trust Office is located at 60 Wall Street,
New York, New York 10005, U.S.A.

          (1) The Deposit Agreement. This American Depositary Receipt is one of
an issue of American Depositary Receipts ("Receipts"), all issued and to be
issued upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Deposit Agreement, dated
as of [o] (as amended from time to time, the "Deposit Agreement"), by and among
the Company, the Depositary, and all Holders and Beneficial Owners from time to
time of Receipts issued thereunder, each of whom by accepting a Receipt agrees
to become a party thereto and becomes bound by all the terms and conditions
thereof. The Deposit Agreement sets forth the rights and obligations of Holders
and Beneficial Owners of Receipts and the rights and duties of the Depositary in
respect of the Shares deposited thereunder and any and all other securities,
property and cash from time to time, received in respect of such Shares and held
thereunder (such Shares, other securities, property and cash are herein called
"Deposited Securities"). Copies of the Deposit Agreement are on file at the
Corporate Trust Office of the Depositary and the Custodian.

                                       A-1
<PAGE>

          Each owner and each Beneficial Owner, upon acceptance of any ADSs (or
any interest therein) issued in accordance with the terms and conditions of the
Deposit Agreement, shall be deemed for all purposes to (a) be a party to and
bound by the terms of the Deposit Agreement and applicable ADR(s), and (b)
appoint the Depositary its attorney-in-fact, with full power to delegate, to act
on its behalf and to take any and all actions contemplated in the Deposit
Agreement and the applicable ADR(s), to adopt any and all procedures necessary
to comply with applicable law and to take such action as the Depositary in its
sole discretion may deem necessary or appropriate to carry out the purposes of
the Deposit Agreement and the applicable ADR(s), the taking of such actions to
be the conclusive determinant of the necessity and appropriateness thereof.

          The statements made on the face and reverse of this Receipt are
derived from the relevant provisions of the Deposit Agreement and the Company's
Bye-laws (as in effect on the date of the Deposit Agreement) and are qualified
by and subject to the detailed provisions of the Deposit Agreement, to which
reference is hereby made. All capitalized terms used herein which are not
otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Deposit
Agreement. The Depositary makes no representation or warranty as to the validity
or worth of the Deposited Securities. The Depositary has made arrangements for
the acceptance of the American Depositary Shares into DTC. Each Beneficial Owner
of American Depositary Shares held through DTC must rely on the procedures of
DTC and the DTC Participants to exercise and be entitled to any rights
attributable to such American Depositary Shares. The Receipt evidencing the
American Depositary Shares held through DTC will be registered in the name of a
nominee of DTC. So long as the American Depositary Shares are held through DTC
or unless otherwise required by law, ownership of beneficial interests in the
Receipt registered in the name of DTC (or its nominee) will be shown on, and
transfers of such ownership will be effected only through, records maintained by
(i) DTC (or its nominee), or (ii) DTC Participants (or their nominees).

          (2) Surrender of Receipts and Withdrawal of Deposited Securities. Upon
surrender, at the Corporate Trust Office of the Depositary, of ADSs evidenced by
this Receipt for the purpose of withdrawal of the Deposited Securities
represented thereby, and upon payment of (i) the charges of the Depositary for
the making of withdrawals and cancellation of Receipts (as set forth in Section
5.9 of the Deposit Agreement and Article (9) hereto) and (ii) all fees, taxes
and governmental charges payable in connection with such surrender and
withdrawal, and, subject to the terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement,
the Company's Bye-laws, Section 7.10 of the Deposit Agreement, Article (22) of
this Receipt and the provisions of or governing the Deposited Securities and
other applicable laws, the Holder of the American Depositary Shares evidenced
hereby is entitled to delivery, to him or upon his order, of the Deposited
Securities represented by the ADS so surrendered. Subject to the last sentence
of this paragraph, such Deposited Securities may be delivered in certificated
form or, except for Shares, by electronic delivery. ADS may be surrendered for
the purpose of withdrawing Deposited Securities by delivery of a Receipt
evidencing such ADS (if held in registered form) or by book-entry delivery of
such ADS to the Depositary.

          A Receipt surrendered for such purposes shall, if so required by the
Depositary, be properly endorsed in blank or accompanied by proper instruments
of transfer in blank, and if the Depositary so requires, the Holder thereof
shall execute and deliver to the Depositary a written order directing the
Depositary to cause the Deposited Securities being withdrawn to be delivered to
or upon the written order of a person or persons designated in such order.
Thereupon, the Depositary shall direct the Custodian to Deliver (without
unreasonable delay) at the designated office of the Custodian (subject to the
terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement, to the Company's Bye-laws, and to
the provisions of or governing the Deposited Securities and applicable laws, now
or hereafter in effect), to or upon the written order of the person or persons
designated in the order delivered to the Depositary as provided above, the
Deposited Securities represented by such ADSs, together with any certificate or
other proper

                                       A-2
<PAGE>

documents of or relating to title for the Deposited Securities or evidence of
the electronic transfer thereof (if available) as the case may be to or for the
account of such person. The Depositary may make delivery to such person or
persons at the Corporate Trust Office of the Depositary of any dividends or
distributions with respect to the Deposited Securities represented by such
Receipt, or of any proceeds of sale of any dividends, distributions or rights,
which may at the time be held by the Depositary.

          The Depositary may, in its discretion, refuse to accept for surrender
a number of American Depositary Shares representing a number of Shares other
than a whole number of Shares. In the case of surrender of a Receipt evidencing
a number of ADSs representing other than a whole number of Shares, the
Depositary shall cause ownership of the appropriate whole number of Shares to be
delivered in accordance with the terms hereof, and shall, at the discretion of
the Depositary, either (i) issue and deliver to the person surrendering such
Receipt a new Receipt evidencing American Depositary Shares representing any
remaining fractional Share, or (ii) sell or cause to be sold the fractional
Shares represented by the Receipt so surrendered and remit the proceeds thereof
(net of (a) applicable fees and charges of, and expenses incurred by, the
Depositary and (b) taxes withheld) to the person surrendering the Receipt. At
the request, risk and expense of any Holder so surrendering a Receipt, and for
the account of such Holder, the Depositary shall direct the Custodian to forward
(to the extent permitted by law) any cash or other property (other than
securities) held in respect of, and any certificate or certificates and other
proper documents of or relating to title to, the Deposited Securities
represented by such Receipt to the Depositary for delivery at the Corporate
Trust Office of the Depositary, and for further delivery to such Holder. Such
direction shall be given by letter or, at the request, risk and expense of such
Holder, by cable, telex or facsimile transmission.

          (3)  Transfers, Split-Ups and Combinations of Receipts. Subject to the
terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement, the Registrar shall register
transfers of Receipts on its books, upon surrender at the Corporate Trust Office
of the Depositary of a Receipt by the Holder thereof in person or by duly
authorized attorney, properly endorsed or accompanied by proper instruments of
transfer (including signature guarantees in accordance with standard industry
practice) and duly stamped as may be required by the laws of the State of New
York and of the United States of America, of Bermuda and of any other applicable
jurisdiction. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement,
including payment of the applicable fees and expenses incurred by, and charges
of, the Depositary, the Depositary shall execute and deliver a new Receipt(s)
(and if necessary, cause the Registrar to countersign such Receipt(s)) and
deliver same to or upon the order of the person entitled to such Receipts
evidencing the same aggregate number of ADSs as those evidenced by the Receipts
surrendered. Upon surrender of a Receipt or Receipts for the purpose of
effecting a split-up or combination of such Receipt or Receipts upon payment of
the applicable fees and charges of the Depositary, and subject to the terms and
conditions of the Deposit Agreement, the Depositary shall execute and deliver a
new Receipt or Receipts for any authorized number of ADSs requested, evidencing
the same aggregate number of ADSs as the Receipt or Receipts surrendered.

          (4)  Pre-Conditions to Registration, Transfer, Etc. As a condition
precedent to the execution and delivery, registration of transfer, split-up,
combination or surrender of any Receipt or withdrawal of any Deposited
Securities, the Depositary or the Custodian may require (i) payment from the
depositor of Shares or presenter of the Receipt of a sum sufficient to reimburse
it for any tax or other governmental charge and any stock transfer or
registration fee with respect thereto (including any such tax or charge and fee
with respect to Shares being deposited or withdrawn) and payment of any
applicable fees and charges of the Depositary as provided in the Deposit
Agreement and in this Receipt, (ii) the production of proof satisfactory to it
as to the identity and genuineness of any signature or any other matters and
(iii) compliance with (A) any laws or governmental regulations relating to the
execution and

                                       A-3
<PAGE>

delivery of Receipts and ADSs or to the withdrawal of Deposited Securities and
(B) such reasonable regulations of the Depositary or the Company consistent with
the Deposit Agreement and applicable law.

          The issuance of ADSs against deposits of Shares generally or against
deposits of particular Shares may be suspended, or the issuance of ADSs against
the deposit of particular Shares may be withheld, or the registration of
transfer of Receipts in particular instances may be refused, or the registration
of transfer of Receipts generally may be suspended, during any period when the
transfer books of the Depositary are closed or if any such action is deemed
necessary or advisable by the Depositary or the Company, in good faith, at any
time or from time to time because of any requirement of law, any government or
governmental body or commission or any securities exchange upon which the
Receipts or Share are listed, or under any provision of the Deposit Agreement or
provisions of, or governing, the Deposited Securities or any meeting of
shareholders of the Company or for any other reason, subject in all cases to
Article (22) hereof. Notwithstanding any provision of the Deposit Agreement or
this Receipt to the contrary, the Holders of Receipts are entitled to surrender
outstanding ADSs to withdraw the Deposited Securities at any time subject only
to (i) temporary delays caused by closing the transfer books of the Depositary
or the Company or the deposit of Shares in connection with voting at a
shareholders' meeting or the payment of dividends, (ii) the payment of fees,
taxes and similar charges, (iii) compliance with any U.S. or foreign laws or
governmental regulations relating to the Receipts or to the withdrawal of the
Deposited Securities, and (iv) other circumstances specifically contemplated by
Section I.A.(l) of the General Instructions to Form F-6 (as such General
Instructions may be amended from time to time). Without limitation of the
foregoing, the Depositary shall not knowingly accept for deposit under the
Deposit Agreement any Shares or other Deposited Securities required to be
registered under the provisions of the Securities Act, unless a registration
statement is in effect as to such Shares.

          (5)  Compliance With Information Requests. Notwithstanding any other
provision of the Deposit Agreement or this Receipt, each Holder and Beneficial
Owner of the ADSs represented hereby agrees to comply with requests from the
Company pursuant to the laws of Bermuda , the rules and requirements of National
Association of Securities Dealers and any other stock exchange on which the
Shares are, or will be registered, traded or listed, the Company's Bye-laws,
which are made to provide information as to the capacity in which such Holder or
Beneficial Owner owns ADSs and regarding the identity of any other person
interested in such ADSs and the nature of such interest and various other
matters whether or not they are Holders and/or Beneficial Owner at the time of
such request. The Depositary agrees to use reasonable efforts to forward any
such requests to the Holders and to forward to the Company any such responses to
such requests received by the Depositary.

          (6)  Liability of Holder for Taxes, Duties and Other Charges. If any
tax or other governmental charge shall become payable by the Depositary or the
Custodian with respect to any Receipt or any Deposited Securities or ADSs, such
tax, or other governmental charge shall be payable by the Holders and Beneficial
Owners to the Depositary. The Company, the Custodian and/or the Depositary may
withhold or deduct from any distributions made in respect of Deposited
Securities and may sell for the account of the Holder and/or Beneficial Owner
any or all of the Deposited Securities and apply such distributions and sale
proceeds in payment of such taxes (including applicable interest and penalties)
or charges, with the Holder and the Beneficial Owner hereof remaining fully
liable for any deficiency. The Custodian may refuse the deposit of Shares, and
the Depositary may refuse to issue ADSs, to deliver Receipts, register the
transfer, split-up or combination of ADRs and (subject to Article (22) hereof)
the withdrawal of Deposited Securities, until payment in full of such tax,
charge, penalty or interest is received. Every Holder and Beneficial Owner
agrees to indemnify the Depositary, the Company, the Custodian and each of their
respective agents, directors, employees and Affiliates for, and hold each of

                                       A-4
<PAGE>

them harmless from, any claims with respect to taxes (including applicable
interest and penalties thereon) arising from any tax benefit obtained for such
Holder and/or Beneficial Owner.

          Holders understand that in converting Foreign Currency, amounts
received on conversion are calculated at a rate which may exceed the number of
decimal places used by the Depositary to report distribution rates (which in any
case will not be less than two decimal places). Any excess amount may be
retained by the Depositary as an additional cost of conversion, irrespective of
any other fees and expenses payable or owing hereunder and shall not be subject
to escheatment.

          (7)  Representations and Warranties of Depositors. Each person
depositing Shares under the Deposit Agreement shall be deemed thereby to
represent and warrant that (i) such Shares (and the certificates therefor) are
duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, non-assessable and were legally
obtained by such person, (ii) all preemptive (and similar) rights, if any, with
respect to such Shares, have been validly waived or exercised, (iii) the person
making such deposit is duly authorized so to do, (iv) the Shares presented for
deposit are free and clear of any lien, encumbrance, security interest, charge,
mortgage or adverse claim, and are not, and the American Depositary Shares
issuable upon such deposit will not be, Restricted Securities (except as
contemplated by Section 2.11) and (v) the Shares presented for deposit have not
been stripped of any rights or entitlements. Such representations and warranties
shall survive the deposit and withdrawal of Shares and the issuance,
cancellation and transfer of ADSs. If any such representations or warranties are
false in any way, the Company and Depositary shall be authorized, at the cost
and expense of the person depositing Shares, to take any and all actions
necessary to correct the consequences thereof.

          (8)  Filing Proofs, Certificates and Other Information. Any person
presenting Shares for deposit, any Holder and any Beneficial Owner may be
required, and every Holder and Beneficial Owner agrees, from time to time to
provide to the Depositary such proof of citizenship or residence, taxpayer
status, payment of all applicable taxes or other governmental charges, exchange
control approval, legal or beneficial ownership of ADSs and Deposited
Securities, compliance with applicable laws and the terms of the Deposit
Agreement and the provisions of, or governing, the Deposited Securities or other
information as the Depositary deem necessary or proper or as the Company may
reasonably require by written request to the Depositary consistent with its
obligations under the Deposit Agreement. Subject to Article (22) hereof and the
terms of the Deposit Agreement, the Depositary and the Registrar, as applicable,
may withhold the delivery or registration of transfer of any Receipt or the
distribution or sale of any dividend or other distribution of rights or of the
proceeds thereof or the delivery of any Deposited Securities until such proof or
other information is filed, or such certifications are executed, or such
representations and warranties made, or such information and documentation are
provided.

          (9)  Charges of Depositary. The Depositary shall charge to any person
surrendering ADSs for cancellation and withdrawal of Deposited Securities
including, inter alia, cash distributions made pursuant to a cancellation or
withdrawal, a fee not in excess of U.S. $5.00 per 100 ADSs (or fraction thereof)
so surrendered; provided, however, that in connection with a termination of the
ADR facility the charge to holders of ADSs shall be no more than US $2.50 per
100 ADSs (or fraction thereof).

          In addition, any depositor depositing Shares for deposit and any
person surrendering ADSs for cancellation and withdrawal of Deposited Securities
will be required to pay the following charges:

                                       A-5
<PAGE>

               (i)  taxes (including applicable interest and penalties) and
     other governmental charges;

               (ii) such registration fees as may from time to time be in effect
     for the registration of Shares or other Deposited Securities with the
     Foreign Registrar and applicable to transfers of Shares or other Deposited
     Securities to or from the name of the Custodian, the Depositary or any
     nominees upon the making of deposits and withdrawals, respectively;

               (iii) such cable, telex, facsimile and electronic transmission
     and delivery expenses as are expressly provided in the Deposit Agreement to
     be at the expense of the depositor depositing or person withdrawing Shares
     or Holders and Beneficial Owners of ADSs;

               (iv) the expenses and charges incurred by the Depositary in the
     conversion of Foreign Currency, if any; and

               (v)  such fees and expenses as are incurred by the Depositary in
     connection with compliance with exchange control regulations and other
     regulatory requirements applicable to Shares, Deposited Securities, ADSs
     and ADRs.

          Any other fees and charges of, and expenses incurred by, the
Depositary shall be for the account of the Company unless otherwise agreed
between the Company and the Depositary in writing from time to time. All fees
and charges may, at any time and from time to time, be changed by agreement
between the Depositary and Company but, in the case of fees and charges payable
by Holders or Beneficial Owners, only in the manner contemplated by Article (20)
of this Receipt.

          (10) Title to Receipts. It is a condition of this Receipt, and every
successive Holder of this Receipt by accepting or holding the same consents and
agrees, that title to this Receipt (and to each ADS evidenced hereby) is
transferable by delivery of the Receipt, provided it has been properly endorsed
or accompanied by proper instruments of transfer, such Receipt being a
certificated security under the laws of the State of New York. Notwithstanding
any notice to the contrary, the Depositary may deem and treat the Holder of this
Receipt (that is, the person in whose name this Receipt is registered on the
books of the Depositary) as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes. The
Depositary shall have no obligation or be subject to any liability under the
Deposit Agreement or this Receipt to any holder of this Receipt or any
Beneficial Owner unless such holder is the Holder of this Receipt registered on
the books of the Depositary or, in the case of a Beneficial Owner, such
Beneficial Owner or the Beneficial Owner's representative is the Holder
registered on the books of the Depositary.

          (11) Validity of Receipt. This Receipt shall not be entitled to any
benefits under the Deposit Agreement or be valid or enforceable for any purpose,
unless this Receipt has been (i) dated, (ii) signed by the manual or facsimile
signature of a duly authorized signatory of the Depositary, (iii) if a Registrar
for the Receipts shall have been appointed, countersigned by the manual or
facsimile signature of a duly authorized signatory of the Registrar and (iv)
registered in the books maintained by the Depositary or the Registrar, as
applicable, for the issuance and transfer of Receipts. Receipts bearing the
facsimile signature of a duly-authorized signatory of the Depositary or the
Registrar, who at the time of signature was a duly-authorized signatory of the
Depositary or the Registrar, as the case may be, shall bind the Depositary,
notwithstanding the fact that such signatory has ceased to be so authorized
prior to the execution and delivery of such Receipt by the Depositary or did not
hold such office on the date of issuance of such Receipts.

          (12) Available Information; Reports; Inspection of Transfer Books. The
Company is subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act
and accordingly files certain

                                       A-6
<PAGE>

information with the Commission. These reports and documents can be inspected
and copied at the public reference facilities maintained by the Commission
located at 100 F Street, N.E., Washington D.C. 20549, U.S.A. The Depositary
shall make available during normal business hours on any Business Day for
inspection by Holders at its Corporate Trust Office any reports and
communications, including any proxy soliciting materials, received from the
Company which are both (a) received by the Depositary, the Custodian, or the
nominee of either of them as the holder of the Deposited Securities and (b) made
generally available to the holders of such Deposited Securities by the Company.

          The Depositary or the Registrar, as applicable, shall keep books for
the registration of Receipts and transfers of Receipts which at all reasonable
times shall be open for inspection by the Company and by the Holders of such
Receipts, provided that such inspection shall not be, to the Depositary's or the
Registrar's knowledge, for the purpose of communicating with Holders of such
Receipts in the interest of a business or object other than the business of the
Company or other than a matter related to the Deposit Agreement or the Receipts.

          The Depositary or the Registrar, as applicable, may close the transfer
books with respect to the Receipts, at any time or from time to time, when
deemed necessary or advisable by it in good faith in connection with the
performance of its duties hereunder, or at the reasonable written request of the
Company subject, in all cases, to Article (22) hereof.

                          [FORM OF REVERSE OF RECEIPT]

                    SUMMARY OF CERTAIN ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS
                            OF THE DEPOSIT AGREEMENT

          (13) Dividends and Distributions in Cash, Shares, etc. Whenever the
Depositary receives confirmation from the Custodian of receipt of any cash
dividend or other cash distribution on any Deposited Securities, or receives
proceeds from the sale of any Shares, rights securities or other entitlements
under the Deposit Agreement, the Depositary will distribute promptly the amount
thus received (net of applicable fees and charges of, and expenses incurred by,
the Depositary and taxes withheld) to the Holders of record as of the ADS Record
Date in proportion to the number of ADS representing such Deposited Securities
held by such Holders respectively as of the ADS Record Date. The Depositary
shall distribute only such amount, however, as can be distributed without
attributing to any Holder a fraction of one cent. Any such fractional amounts
shall be rounded to the nearest whole cent and so distributed to Holders
entitled thereto. If at the time of receipt thereof any such amounts are
received in a Foreign Currency and can, in the judgment of the Depositary (upon
the terms of the Deposit Agreement), be converted on a practicable basis, into
Dollars transferable to the United States, the Depositary will promptly convert
or cause to be converted such dividend, distribution or proceeds into Dollars
and will distribute in accordance with the Deposit Agreement. If the Company,
the Custodian or the Depositary is required to withhold and does withhold from
any cash dividend or other cash distribution in respect of any Deposited
Securities an amount on account of taxes, duties or other governmental charges,
the amount distributed to Holders on the ADSs representing such Deposited
Securities shall be reduced accordingly. Such withheld amounts shall be
forwarded by the Company, the Custodian or the Depositary to the relevant
governmental authority. Any Foreign Currency received by the Depositary shall be
converted upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Deposit Agreement.

          If any distribution upon any Deposited Securities consists of a
dividend in, or free distribution of, Shares, the Company shall or cause such
Shares to be deposited with the Custodian and registered, as the case may be, in
the name of the Depositary, the Custodian or their nominees. Upon receipt of
confirmation of such deposit, the Depositary shall, subject to and in accordance
with the Deposit Agreement, establish the ADS Record Date and either (i)
distribute to the Holders as of the ADS Record Date in proportion to the number
of ADSs held as of the ADS Record Date, additional ADSs, which represent in
aggregate the number of Shares received as such dividend, or free distribution,
subject to the terms of the Deposit Agreement (including, without limitation,
the applicable fees and charges of, and expenses incurred by, the Depositary,
and taxes), or (ii) if additional ADSs are not so distributed, each ADS issued
and outstanding after the ADS Record Date shall, to the extent permissible by
law, thenceforth also represent rights and interest in the additional Shares
distributed upon the Deposited Securities represented thereby (net of the
applicable fees and charges of, and the expenses incurred by, the Depositary,
and taxes). In lieu of delivering fractional ADSs, the Depositary shall sell the
number of Shares represented by the aggregate of such fractions and distribute
the proceeds upon the terms set forth in the Deposit Agreement.

          In the event that (x) the Depositary determines that any distribution
in property (including Shares) is subject to any tax or other governmental
charges which the Depositary is obligated to withhold, or, (y) if the Company,
in the fulfillment of its obligations under the Deposit Agreement, has either
(a) furnished an opinion of U.S. counsel determining that Shares must be
registered under the Securities Act or other laws in order to be distributed to
Holders (and no such registration statement has been declared effective), or (b)
fails to timely deliver the documentation contemplated in the Deposit Agreement,
the Depositary may dispose of all or a portion of such property (including
Shares and rights to subscribe therefor) in such amounts and in such manner,
including by public or private sale, as the Depositary

                                       A-9
<PAGE>

deems necessary and practicable, and the Depositary shall distribute the net
proceeds of any such sale (after deduction of taxes and fees and charges of, and
expenses incurred by, the Depositary) to Holders entitled thereto upon the terms
of the Deposit Agreement. The Depositary shall hold and/or distribute any unsold
balance of such property in accordance with the provisions of the Deposit
Agreement.

          Upon timely receipt of a notice indicating that the Company wishes an
elective distribution to be made available to Holders upon the terms described
in the Deposit Agreement, the Depositary shall, upon provision of all
documentation required under the Deposit Agreement, (including, without
limitation, any legal opinions of counsel the Depositary may request under the
Deposit Agreement) determine whether such distribution is lawful and reasonably
practicable. If so, the Depositary shall, subject to the terms and conditions of
the Deposit Agreement, establish an ADS Record Date according to Article (14)
hereof and establish procedures to enable the Holder hereof to elect to receive
the proposed distribution in cash or in additional ADSs. If a Holder elects to
receive the distribution in cash, the dividend shall be distributed as in the
case of a distribution in cash. If the Holder hereof elects to receive the
distribution in additional ADSs, the distribution shall be distributed as in the
case of a distribution in Shares upon the terms described in the Deposit
Agreement. If such elective distribution is not lawful or reasonably practicable
or if the Depositary did not receive satisfactory documentation set forth in the
Deposit Agreement, the Depositary shall, to the extent permitted by law,
distribute to Holders, on the basis of the same determination as is made in
Bermuda , in respect of the Shares for which no election is made, either (x)
cash or (y) additional ADSs representing such additional Shares, in each case,
upon the terms described in the Deposit Agreement. Nothing herein shall obligate
the Depositary to make available to the Holder hereof a method to receive the
elective distribution in Shares (rather than ADSs). There can be no assurance
that the Holder hereof will be given the opportunity to receive elective
distributions on the same terms and conditions as the holders of Shares.

          Upon receipt by the Depositary of a notice indicating that the Company
wishes rights to subscribe for additional Shares to be made available to Holders
of ADSs, the Company shall determine whether it is lawful and reasonably
practicable to make such rights available to the Holders. The Depositary shall
make such rights available to any Holders only if the Company shall have timely
requested that such rights be made available to Holders, the Depositary shall
have received the documentation required by the Deposit Agreement, and the
Depositary shall have determined that such distribution of rights is lawful and
reasonably practicable. If such conditions are not satisfied, the Depositary
shall sell the rights as described below. In the event all conditions set forth
above are satisfied, the Depositary shall establish an ADS Record Date and
establish procedures (x) to distribute such rights (by means of warrants or
otherwise) and (y) to enable the Holders to exercise the rights (upon payment of
the applicable fees and charges of, and expenses incurred by, the Depositary and
taxes). Nothing herein or in the Deposit Agreement shall obligate the Depositary
to make available to the Holders a method to exercise such rights to subscribe
for Shares (rather than ADSs). If (i) the Company does not timely request the
Depositary to make the rights available to Holders or if the Company requests
that the rights not be made available to Holders, (ii) the Depositary fails to
receive the documentation required by the Deposit Agreement or determines it is
not lawful or reasonably practicable to make the rights available to Holders, or
(iii) any rights made available are not exercised and appear to be about to
lapse, the Depositary shall determine whether it is lawful and reasonably
practicable to sell such rights, in a riskless principal capacity or otherwise,
at such place and upon such terms (including public and private sale) as it may
deem proper. The Depositary shall, upon such sale, convert (if applicable) and
distribute proceeds of such sale (net of applicable fees and charges of, and
expenses incurred by, the Depositary and taxes) upon the terms hereof and in the
Deposit Agreement. If the Depositary is unable to make any rights available to
Holders or to arrange for the sale of the rights upon the terms described above,
the Depositary shall allow such rights to lapse. The Depositary shall not be
responsible for (i) any failure to determine that it may be lawful or feasible
to make such rights available to Holders in general or any

                                       A-10
<PAGE>

Holders in particular, (ii) any foreign exchange exposure or loss incurred in
connection with such sale, or exercise, or (iii) the content of any materials
forwarded to the Holders on behalf of the Company in connection with the rights
distribution.

          Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if registration
(under the Securities Act or any other applicable law) of the rights or the
securities to which any rights relate may be required in order for the Company
to offer such rights or such securities to Holders and to sell the securities
represented by such rights, the Depositary will not distribute such rights to
the Holders (i) unless and until a registration statement under the Securities
Act covering such offering is in effect or (ii) unless the Company furnishes to
the Depositary opinion(s) of counsel for the Company in the United States and
counsel to the Company in any other applicable country in which rights would be
distributed, in each case satisfactorily to the Depositary, to the effect that
the offering and sale of such securities to Holders and Beneficial Owners are
exempt from, or do not require registration under, the provisions of the
Securities Act or any other applicable laws. In the event that the Company, the
Depositary or the Custodian shall be required to withhold and does withhold from
any distribution of property (including rights) an amount on account of taxes or
other governmental charges, the amount distributed to the Holders shall be
reduced accordingly. In the event that the Depositary determines that any
distribution in property (including Shares and rights to subscribe therefor) is
subject to any tax or other governmental charges which the Depositary is
obligated to withhold, the Depositary may dispose of all or a portion of such
property (including Shares and rights to subscribe therefor) in such amounts and
in such manner, including by public or private sale, as the Depositary deems
necessary and practicable to pay any such taxes or charges.

          There can be no assurance that Holders generally, or any Holder in
particular, will be given the opportunity to exercise rights on the same terms
and conditions as the holders of Shares or to exercise such rights. Nothing
herein shall obligate the Company to file any registration statement in respect
of any rights or Shares or other securities to be acquired upon the exercise of
such rights.

          Upon receipt of a notice regarding property other than cash, Shares or
rights to purchase additional Shares, to be made to Holders of ADSs, the
Depositary shall determine, upon consultation with the Company, whether such
distribution to Holders is lawful and reasonably practicable. The Depositary
shall not make such distribution unless (i) the Company shall have timely
requested the Depositary to make such distribution to Holders, (ii) the
Depositary shall have received the documentation required by the Deposit
Agreement, and (iii) the Depositary shall have determined that such distribution
is lawful and reasonably practicable. Upon satisfaction of such conditions, the
Depositary shall distribute the property so received to the Holders of record as
of the ADS Record Date, in proportion to the number of ADSs held by such Holders
respectively and in such manner as the Depositary may deem practicable for
accomplishing such distribution (i) upon receipt of payment or net of the
applicable fees and charges of, and expenses incurred by, the Depositary, and
(ii) net of any taxes withheld. The Depositary may dispose of all or a portion
of the property so distributed and deposited, in such amounts and in such manner
(including public or private sale) as the Depositary may deem practicable or
necessary to satisfy any taxes (including applicable interest and penalties) or
other governmental charges applicable to the distribution.

          If the conditions above are not satisfied, the Depositary shall sell
or cause such property to be sold in a public or private sale, at such place or
places and upon such terms as it may deem proper and shall distribute the
proceeds of such sale received by the Depositary (net of (a) applicable fees and
charges of, and expenses incurred by, the Depositary and (b) taxes) to the
Holders upon the terms hereof and of the Deposit Agreement. If the Depositary is
unable to sell such property, the Depositary may dispose of such property in any
way it deems reasonably practicable under the circumstances.

                                       A-11

          (14) Fixing of Record Date. Whenever necessary in connection with any
distribution (whether in cash, shares, rights or other distribution), or
whenever for any reason the Depositary causes a change in the number of Shares
that are represented by each ADS, or whenever the Depositary shall receive
notice of any meeting of or solicitation of holders of Shares or other Deposited
Securities, or whenever the Depositary shall find it necessary or convenient,
the Depositary shall fix a record date ("ADS Record Date"), as close as
practicable to the record date fixed by the Company with respect to the Shares,
for the determination of the Holders who shall be entitled to receive such
distribution, to give instructions for the exercise of voting rights at any such
meeting, or to give or withhold such consent, or to receive such notice or
solicitation or to otherwise take action, or to exercise the rights of Holders
with respect to such changed number of Shares represented by each ADS. Subject
to applicable law and the terms and conditions of this Receipt and the Deposit
Agreement, only the Holders of record at the close of business in New York on
such ADS Record Date shall be entitled to receive such distributions, to give
such voting instructions, to receive such notice or solicitation, or otherwise
take action.

          (15) Voting of Deposited Securities. As soon as practicable after
receipt of notice of any meeting at which the holders of Shares are entitled to
vote, or of solicitation of consents or proxies from holders of Shares or other
Deposited Securities, the Depositary shall fix the ADS Record Date in respect of
such meeting or solicitation of such consent or proxy. The Depositary shall, if
requested by the Company in writing in a timely manner (the Depositary having no
obligation to take any further action if the request shall not have been
received by the Depositary at least 30 days prior to the date of such vote or
meeting), at the Company's expense and provided no U.S. legal prohibitions
exist, mail by ordinary, regular mail delivery or by electronic transmission (if
agreed by the Company and the Depositary), unless otherwise agreed in writing by
the Company and the Depositary, to Holders as of the ADS Record Date: (a) such
notice of meeting or solicitation of consent or proxies; (b) a statement that
the Holders as of the ADS Record Date will be entitled, subject to (i) any
applicable law, the provisions of the Deposit Agreement, the Company's Bye-laws
and the provisions of or governing Deposited Securities (which provisions, if
any, shall be summarized in pertinent part by the Company), to instruct the
Depositary as to the exercise of the voting rights, if any, pertaining to the
Shares or other Deposited Securities represented by such Holder's American
Depositary Shares; and (c) a brief statement as to the manner in which such
instructions may be given. Voting instructions may be given only in respect of a
number of American Depositary Shares representing an integral number of Shares
or other Deposited Securities. Upon the timely receipt of written instructions
of a Holder of American Depositary Shares on the ADS Record Date of voting
instructions in the manner specified by the Depositary, the Depositary shall
endeavor, insofar as practicable and permitted under applicable law, the
provisions of the Deposit Agreement, the Company's Bye-laws and the provisions
of or governing the Deposited Securities, to vote or cause the Custodian to vote
the Shares and/or other Deposited Securities (in person or by proxy) represented
by American Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt in accordance with such
voting instructions.

          Neither the Depositary nor the Custodian shall, under any
circumstances exercise any discretion as to voting, and neither the Depositary
nor the Custodian shall vote, or attempt to exercise the right to vote, or in
any way make use of for purposes of establishing a quorum or otherwise, the
Shares or other Deposited Securities represented by ADSs except pursuant to and
in accordance with such written instructions from Holders.

          There can be no assurance that Holders or Beneficial Owners generally
or any Holder or Beneficial Owner in particular will receive the notice
described above with sufficient time to enable the Holder to return voting
instructions to the Depositary in a timely manner.

                                       A-12
<PAGE>

          Notwithstanding the above, and in accordance with the terms of Section
5.3 of the Deposit Agreement, the Depositary shall not be liable for any failure
to carry out any instructions to vote any of the Deposited Securities or for the
manner in which such vote is cast or the effect of any such vote.

          (16) Changes Affecting Deposited Securities. Upon any change in par
value, split-up, subdivision, cancellation, consolidation or any other
reclassification of Deposited Securities, or upon any recapitalization,
reorganization, merger , amalgamation or consolidation or sale of assets
affecting the Company or to which it otherwise is a party, any securities which
shall be received by the Depositary or a Custodian in exchange for, or in
conversion of or replacement or otherwise in respect of, such Deposited
Securities shall, to the extent permitted by law, be treated as new Deposited
Securities under the Deposit Agreement, and the Receipts shall, subject to the
provisions of the Deposit Agreement and applicable law, evidence ADSs
representing the right to receive such additional securities. Alternatively, the
Depositary may, with the Company's approval, and shall, if the Company shall so
request, subject to the terms of the Deposit Agreement and receipt of
satisfactory documentation contemplated by the Deposit Agreement, execute and
deliver additional Receipts as in the case of a stock dividend on the Shares, or
call for the surrender of outstanding Receipts to be exchanged for new Receipts,
in either case, as well as in the event of newly deposited Shares, with
necessary modifications to this form of Receipt specifically describing such new
Deposited Securities and/or corporate change. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in
the event that any security so received may not be lawfully distributed to some
or all Holders, the Depositary may, with the Company's approval, and shall if
the Company requests, subject to receipt of satisfactory legal documentation
contemplated in the Deposit Agreement, sell such securities at public or private
sale, at such place or places and upon such terms as it may deem proper and may
allocate the net proceeds of such sales (net of fees and charges of, and
expenses incurred by, the Depositary and taxes) for the account of the Holders
otherwise entitled to such securities and distribute the net proceeds so
allocated to the extent practicable as in the case of a distribution received in
cash pursuant to the Deposit Agreement. The Depositary shall not be responsible
for (i) any failure to determine that it may be lawful or feasible to make such
securities available to Holders in general or any Holder in particular, (ii) any
foreign exchange exposure or loss incurred in connection with such sale, or
(iii) any liability to the purchaser of such securities.

          (17) Exoneration. Neither the Depositary, the Custodian or the Company
shall be obligated to do or perform any act which is inconsistent with the
provisions of the Deposit Agreement or shall incur any liability (i) if the
Depositary, the Custodian or the Company or their respective controlling persons
or agents shall be prevented or forbidden from, or subjected to any civil or
criminal penalty or restraint on account of, or delayed in, doing or performing
any act or thing required by the terms of the Deposit Agreement and this
Receipt, by reason of any provision of any present or future law or regulation
of the United States, Bermuda or any other country, or of any other governmental
authority or regulatory authority or stock exchange, or by reason of any
provision, present or future of the Company's Bye-laws or any provision of or
governing any Deposited Securities, or by reason of any act of God or war or
other circumstances beyond its control, (including, without limitation,
nationalization, expropriation, currency restrictions, work stoppage, strikes,
civil unrest, revolutions, rebellions, explosions and computer failure), (ii) by
reason of any exercise of, or failure to exercise, any discretion provided for
in the Deposit Agreement or in the Company's Bye-laws or provisions of or
governing Deposited Securities, (iii) for any action or inaction of the
Depositary, the Custodian or the Company or their respective controlling persons
or agents in reliance upon the advice of or information from legal counsel,
accountants, any person presenting Shares for deposit, any Holder, any
Beneficial Owner or authorized representative thereof, or any other person
believed by it in good faith to be competent to give such advice or information,
(iv) for any inability by a Holder or Beneficial Owner to benefit from any
distribution, offering, right or other

                                       A-13
<PAGE>

benefit which is made available to holders of Deposited Securities but is not,
under the terms of the Deposit Agreement, made available to Holders of ADS or
(v) for any consequential or punitive damages for any breach of the terms of the
Deposit Agreement. The Depositary, its controlling persons, its agents, any
Custodian and the Company, its controlling persons and its agents may rely and
shall be protected in acting upon any written notice, request, opinion or other
document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by
the proper party or parties. No disclaimer of liability under the Securities Act
is intended by any provision of the Deposit Agreement.

          (18) Standard of Care. The Company and the Depositary and their
respective agents assume no obligation and shall not be subject to any liability
under the Deposit Agreement or the Receipts to Holders or Beneficial Owners or
other persons, except in accordance with Section 5.8 of the Deposit Agreement,
provided, that the Company and the Depositary and their respective agents agree
to perform their respective obligations specifically set forth in the Deposit
Agreement without gross negligence or bad faith. The Depositary and its agents
shall not be liable for any failure to carry out any instructions to vote any of
the Deposited Securities, or for the manner in which any vote is cast or the
effect of any vote, provided that any such action or omission is in good faith
and in accordance with the terms of the Deposit Agreement. The Depositary shall
not incur any liability for any failure to determine that any distribution or
action may be lawful or reasonably practicable, for the content of any
information submitted to it by the Company for distribution to the Holders or
for any inaccuracy of any translation thereof, for any investment risk
associated with acquiring an interest in the Deposited Securities, for the
validity or worth of the Deposited Securities or for any tax consequences that
may result from the ownership of ADSs, Shares or Deposited Securities, for the
credit-worthiness of any third party, for allowing any rights to lapse upon the
terms of the Deposit Agreement or for the failure or timeliness of any notice
from the Company. In no event shall the Depositary or any of its Agents be
liable for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential damage.

          (19) Resignation and Removal of the Depositary; Appointment of
Successor Depositary. The Depositary may at any time resign as Depositary under
the Deposit Agreement by written notice of resignation delivered to the Company,
such resignation to be effective on the earlier of (i) the 90th day after
delivery thereof to the Company, or (ii) upon the appointment of a successor
depositary and its acceptance of such appointment as provided in the Deposit
Agreement, save that, any amounts, fees, costs or expenses owed to the
Depositary under the Deposit Agreement or in accordance with any other
agreements otherwise agreed in writing between the Company and the Depositary
from time to time shall be paid to the Depositary prior to such resignation. The
Company shall use reasonable efforts to appoint such successor depositary, and
give notice to the Depositary of such appointment, not more than 90 days after
delivery by the Depositary of written notice of resignation as provided in the
Deposit Agreement. The Depositary may at any time be removed by the Company by
written notice of such removal which notice shall be effective on the later of
(i) the 90th day after delivery thereof to the Depositary, or (ii) upon the
appointment of a successor depositary and its acceptance of such appointment as
provided in the Deposit Agreement save that, any amounts, fees, costs or
expenses owed to the Depositary under the Deposit Agreement or in accordance
with any other agreements otherwise agreed in writing between the Company and
the Depositary from time to time shall be paid to the Depositary prior to such
removal. In case at any time the Depositary acting hereunder shall resign or be
removed, the Company shall use its best efforts to appoint a successor
depositary which shall be a bank or trust company having an office in the
Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York. Every successor depositary shall
execute and deliver to its predecessor and to the Company an instrument in
writing accepting its appointment hereunder, and thereupon such successor
depositary, without any further act or deed, shall become fully vested with all
the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor. The predecessor
depositary, upon payment of all sums due it and on the written request of the
Company, shall (i) execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such
successor all rights and powers of such

                                       A-14
<PAGE>

predecessor hereunder (other than as contemplated in the Deposit Agreement),
(ii) duly assign, transfer and deliver all right, title and interest to the
Deposited Securities to such successor, and (iii) deliver to such successor a
list of the Holders of all outstanding Receipts and such other information
relating to Receipts and Holders thereof as the successor may reasonably
request. Any such successor depositary shall promptly mail notice of its
appointment to such Holders. Any corporation into or with which the Depositary
may be merged or consolidated shall be the successor of the Depositary without
the execution or filing of any document or any further act.

          (20) Amendment/Supplement. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Article (20), and applicable law, this Receipt and any provisions of the Deposit
Agreement may at any time and from time to time be amended or supplemented by
written agreement between the Company and the Depositary in any respect which
they may deem necessary or desirable without the consent of the Holders or
Beneficial Owners. Any amendment or supplement which shall impose or increase
any fees or charges (other than the charges of the Depositary in connection with
foreign exchange control regulations, and taxes and other governmental charges,
delivery and other such expenses), or which shall otherwise materially prejudice
any substantial existing right of Holders or Beneficial Owners, shall not,
however, become effective as to outstanding Receipts until 30 days after notice
of such amendment or supplement shall have been given to the Holders of
outstanding Receipts. The parties hereto agree that any amendments or
supplements which (i) are reasonably necessary (as agreed by the Company and the
Depositary) in order for (a) the ADSs to be registered on Form F-6 under the
Securities Act or (b) the ADSs or Shares to be traded solely in electronic
book-entry form and (ii) do not in either such case impose or increase any fees
or charges to be borne by Holders, shall be deemed not to prejudice any
substantial rights of Holders or Beneficial Owners. Every Holder and Beneficial
Owner at the time any amendment or supplement so becomes effective shall be
deemed, by continuing to hold such ADS, to consent and agree to such amendment
or supplement and to be bound by the Deposit Agreement as amended or
supplemented thereby. In no event shall any amendment or supplement impair the
right of the Holder to surrender such Receipt and receive therefor the Deposited
Securities represented thereby, except in order to comply with mandatory
provisions of applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any governmental
body should adopt new laws, rules or regulations which would require amendment
or supplement of the Deposit Agreement to ensure compliance therewith, the
Company and the Depositary may amend or supplement the Deposit Agreement and the
Receipt at any time in accordance with such changed laws, rules or regulations.
Such amendment or supplement to the Deposit Agreement in such circumstances may
become effective before a notice of such amendment or supplement is given to
Holders or within any other period of time as required for compliance with such
laws, or rules or regulations.

          (21) Termination. The Depositary shall, at any time at the written
direction of the Company, terminate the Deposit Agreement by mailing notice of
such termination to the Holders of all Receipts then outstanding at least 90
days prior to the date fixed in such notice for such termination provided that,
the Depositary shall be reimbursed for any amounts, fees, costs or expenses owed
to it in accordance with the terms of the Deposit Agreement and in accordance
with any other agreements as otherwise agreed in writing between the Company and
the Depositary from time to time, prior to such termination shall take effect.
If 90 days shall have expired after (i) the Depositary shall have delivered to
the Company a written notice of its election to resign, or (ii) the Company
shall have delivered to the Depositary a written notice of the removal of the
Depositary, and in either case a successor depositary shall not have been
appointed and accepted its appointment as provided herein and in the Deposit
Agreement, the Depositary may terminate the Deposit Agreement by mailing notice
of such termination to the Holders of all Receipts then outstanding at least 30
days prior to the date fixed for such termination. On and after the date of
termination of the Deposit Agreement, the Holder will, upon surrender of such
Holder's Receipt at the Corporate Trust Office of the Depositary, upon the
payment of the charges of the

                                       A-15
<PAGE>

Depositary for the surrender of Receipts referred to in Article (2) hereof and
in the Deposit Agreement and subject to the conditions and restrictions therein
set forth, and upon payment of any applicable taxes or governmental charges, be
entitled to delivery, to him or upon his order, of the amount of Deposited
Securities represented by such Receipt. If any Receipts shall remain outstanding
after the date of termination of the Deposit Agreement, the Registrar thereafter
shall discontinue the registration of transfers of Receipts, and the Depositary
shall suspend the distribution of dividends to the Holders thereof, and shall
not give any further notices or perform any further acts under the Deposit
Agreement, except that the Depositary shall continue to collect dividends and
other distributions pertaining to Deposited Securities, shall sell rights as
provided in the Deposit Agreement, and shall continue to deliver Deposited
Securities, subject to the conditions and restrictions set forth in the Deposit
Agreement, together with any dividends or other distributions received with
respect thereto and the net proceeds of the sale of any rights or other
property, in exchange for Receipts surrendered to the Depositary (after
deducting, or charging, as the case may be, in each case the charges of the
Depositary for the surrender of a Receipt, any expenses for the account of the
Holder in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement and
any applicable taxes or governmental charges or assessments). At any time after
the expiration of six months from the date of termination of the Deposit
Agreement, the Depositary may sell the Deposited Securities then held hereunder
and may thereafter hold uninvested the net proceeds of any such sale, together
with any other cash then held by it hereunder, in an unsegregated account,
without liability for interest for the pro rata benefit of the Holders of
Receipts whose Receipts have not theretofore been surrendered. After making such
sale, the Depositary shall be discharged from all obligations under the Deposit
Agreement with respect to the Receipts and the Shares, Deposited Securities and
ADSs, except to account for such net proceeds and other cash (after deducting,
or charging, as the case may be, in each case the charges of the Depositary for
the surrender of a Receipt, any expenses for the account of the Holder in
accordance with the terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement and any
applicable taxes or governmental charges or assessments). Upon the termination
of the Deposit Agreement, the Company shall be discharged from all obligations
under the Deposit Agreement except as set forth in the Deposit Agreement.

          (22) Compliance with U.S. Securities Laws; Regulatory Compliance.
Notwithstanding any provisions in this Receipt or the Deposit Agreement to the
contrary, the withdrawal or delivery of Deposited Securities will not be
suspended by the Company or the Depositary except as would be permitted by
Section I.A.(1) of the General Instructions to the Form F-6 Registration
Statement, as amended from time to time, under the Securities Act.

          (23) Certain Rights of the Depositary; Limitations. Subject to the
further terms and provisions of this Article (23), the Depositary, its
Affiliates and their agents, on their own behalf, may own and deal in any class
of securities of the Company and its affiliates and in ADSs. In its capacity as
Depositary, the Depositary may (i) issue ADSs prior to the receipt of Shares
(each such transaction a "Pre-Release Transaction") as provided below and (ii)
deliver Shares upon the receipt and cancellation of ADSs that were issued in a
Pre-Release Transaction, but for which Shares may not yet have been received.
The Depositary may receive ADSs in lieu of Shares under (i) above and receive
shares in lieu of ADSs under (ii) above. Each such Pre-Release Transaction will
be (a) subject to a written agreement whereby the person or entity (the
"Applicant") to whom ADSs or Shares are to be delivered (1) represents that at
the time of the Pre-Release Transaction the Applicant or its customer owns the
Shares or ADSs that are to be delivered by the Applicant under such Pre-Release
Transaction, (2) agrees to indicate the Depositary as owner of such Shares or
ADSs in its records and to hold such Shares or ADSs in trust for the Depositary
until such Shares or ADSs are delivered to the Depositary or the Custodian, (3)
unconditionally guarantees to deliver to the Depositary or the Custodian, as
applicable, such Shares or ADSs, and (4) agrees to any additional restrictions
or requirements that the Depositary deems appropriate, (b) at all times fully
collateralized with cash, United States government securities or such other
collateral

                                       A-16
<PAGE>

as the Depositary deems appropriate, (c) terminable by the Depositary on not
more than five (5) business days' notice (save for a prescribed termination
event in which case any such Pre-Release Transaction may be immediately
terminable by the Depositary) and (d) subject to such further indemnities and
credit regulations as the Depositary deems appropriate. The Depositary will
normally limit the number of ADSs involved in such Pre-Release Transactions at
any one time to thirty percent (30%) of the ADSs outstanding (without giving
effect to ADSs outstanding pursuant to any Pre-Release Transaction), provided,
however, that the Depositary reserves the right to disregard such limit from
time to time as it deems appropriate. The Depositary may also set limits with
respect to the number of ADSs involved in Pre-Release Transactions with any one
person on a case by case basis as it deems appropriate.

          The Depositary may retain for its own account any compensation
received by it in conjunction with the foregoing. Collateral provided pursuant
to (b) above, but not the earnings thereon, shall be held for the benefit of the
Holders (other than the Applicant).

          (24) Ownership Restrictions. Owners and Beneficial Owners shall comply
with any limitations on ownership of Shares under the Bye-laws of the Company or
applicable Bermuda law as if they held the number of Shares their American
Depositary Shares represent. The Company shall inform the Owners, Beneficial
Owners and the Depositary of any such ownership restrictions in place from time
to time. The Company may restrict transfers of the Shares where such transfer
might result in ownership of Shares exceeding the limits applicable to the
Shares under applicable law or the Company's Memorandum of Association or
Bye-laws. The Company may, in its sole discretion, but subject to applicable
law, instruct the Depositary to take action with respect to the ownership
interest of any Holder or Beneficial Owner pursuant to the Company's Bye-laws,
including but not limited to, the removal or limitation of voting rights or the
mandatory sale or disposition on behalf of a Holder or Beneficial Owner of the
Shares represented by the ADRs held by such Holder or Beneficial Owner in excess
of such limitations, if and to the extent such disposition is permitted by
applicable law and the Company's Memorandum of Association and Bye-laws;
provided that any such measures are practicable and can be undertaken without
undue burden or expense. The Depositary shall have no liability for any actions
taken in accordance with such instructions.
