      Legal Advice

            

    

    

    Occasions
may arise when you consider that you will need professional advice in connection
with the performance of your duties as a director of the Company and you will be
able to consult the Company’s advisors for
this purpose. Exceptional circumstances may occur when it may be appropriate for
you to seek such advice from independent advisors, at the Company’s expense. In such
an event, you should, where reasonably practical and not (in your reasonable
judgment) prejudicial to the interests of the Company, consult with the Board
or, if you consider appropriate, the non-executive directors, prior to such
advice being sought or expense being incurred.

    Medgenics,
Inc. (the “Company”) has adopted the
following code for transactions in securities by directors, applicable employees
and persons connected with them (the “Code”). Directors,
applicable employees and persons connected with them should consider carefully
the application of the Code prior to any dealings in the securities in the
Company. Directors, applicable employees and persons connected with them should
note however that:

    

    
      	
              (a)

            	
              Under
      the Criminal Justice Act 1993, it is a criminal offence for an individual
      who has information as an insider to deal on a regulated market, or
      through or as a professional intermediary, in securities whose price would
      be significantly affected if the inside information were made public. It
      is also an offence to encourage insider dealing and to disclose inside
      information with a view to others profiting from
  it.

            

    

    

    
      	
              (b)

            	
              The
      Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (“FSMA”) introduced a civil
      offence regime relating to market abuse, which supplements the existing
      offences of insider dealing and market manipulation/misleading statements
      offences under the FSMA. The offence, which also applies to securities
      traded on AIM, applies:

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              (i)

            	
              where
      there is behaviour (including anything said, done or written, or not)
      including misuse of non public information, misleading the market or
      distorting the market; and

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              (ii)

            	
              which
      falls below the standard of behaviour that a regular user of the relevant
      market would reasonably expect of a person in the same position as whoever
      is committing the offence in relation to that
  market.

            

    

     

    
      	
              (c)

            	
              Encouraging
      someone else to engage in market abuse is also an offence. The offence
      applies to any person (corporates as well as individuals), it can catch
      behaviour outside the UK, it is purely effect-based (no intention is
      required) and no transaction is
required.

            

    

    

    
      	
              (d)

            	
              The
      Financial Services Authority (“FSA”) has powers
      to impose an unlimited fine or make a public statement about market abuse
      and to apply for court orders to remedy instances of market abuse. The FSA
      Code of Conduct sets out the FSA's opinion on behaviour it considers is/is
      not, market abuse and the facts it will take into account when determining
      the question.

            

    

    

    
      	
              (e)

            	
              You
      must take care before any form of dealing in the Company's securities and
      where appropriate, consult the Company's nominated adviser or solicitors.
      For example, a dealing which may fall outside the Code might still
      constitute an offence under insider dealing or market abuse
      legislation.

            

    

    

    
      	
              (f)

            	
              This
      document addresses the share dealing restrictions set out in the AIM Rules
      for Companies alone. Its purpose is to ensure that Directors, applicable
      employees and their families do not abuse, or place themselves under
      suspicion of abusing, price-sensitive information that they may have or be
      thought to have, especially in periods leading up to an announcement of
      results.

            

    

    

    
      	
              (g)

            	
              A
      Director is also under an obligation to notify the Company in writing of
      his or her interests (and of the interests of persons connected with him
      or her) from time to time in its securities (within the meaning of the AIM
      Rules for Companies). A Director must disclose to the Company all
      information known to him or her (or which he or she could with reasonable
      diligence ascertain) which it needs in order to comply with that
      obligation. You must take care and where appropriate consult the Company's
      nominated adviser or solicitor. For example, a dealing which may fall
      outside the Code might still need to be disclosed to the
      Company.

              (h)

            	
              The
      preceding introduction and the paragraph headings in this document, do not
      form part of the Code, are for guidance and ease of reference only and are
      not to be construed as affecting the substance or interpretation of the
      Code.

            

    

    

    
      	
              (i)

            	
              Compliance
      with the Code may not constitute a defence to any charge under applicable
      law.

            

    

    

    If
there is any doubt as to the application of the Code, the Company's nominated
adviser should be consulted by the Company at an early stage.

      reasonable steps to prevent any dealings by or on behalf of any person
      connected with him in any securities of the Company on considerations of a
      short term nature.

              3

            	
              A

    A close
period is:

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              3.1

              3.1.1

            	
              if
      the Company reports on a half-yearly basis the period of two months
      immediately preceding the notification of its half-yearly report in
      accordance with Rule 18 of the Rules to the Regulatory Information Service
      or, if shorter, the period from the relevant financial period end up to
      and including the time of such notification;
or

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              3.1.2

            	
              if
      the Company reports on a quarterly basis, the period of one month
      immediately preceding the notification of its quarterly results or, if
      shorter, the period from the relevant financial period end up to and
      including the time of the notification (save that for the final quarter
      paragraph 3.1 of this Code applies);
or

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              3.2

            	
              any
      other period when the Company is in possession of unpublished price
      sensitive information; or

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              3.3

            	
              any

      required by this Code and/or the Rules to be
  notified.

            

    

    

    
      	
              4

            	
              A
      director or applicable employee must not deal in any securities of the
      Company at any time when he is in possession of unpublished
      price-sensitive information in relation to those securities, or otherwise
      where clearance to deal is not given under paragraph 5 of this
      Code.

              5

            	
              A
      director or applicable employee or persons connected with them must not
      deal in any securities of the Company without advising the chairman (or
      one or more other directors designated for this purpose) in advance and
      receiving clearance. In his own case, the chairman, or other designated
      director, must advise the board in advance at a board meeting, or advise
      another designated director, and receive clearance from the board or
      designated director, as
appropriate.

            

    

    

    Circumstances
for refusal

    

    
      	
              6

            	
              A
      director or applicable employee or persons connected with them must not be
      given clearance (as required by paragraph 5 of this Code) to deal in any
      securities of the Company during a prohibited
  period.

            

    

    

    A "prohibited period"
means:

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              6.1

            	
              any
      close period;

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              6.2

            	
              any
      period when there exists any matter which constitutes unpublished price
      sensitive information in relation to the Company's securities (whether or
      not the director has knowledge of such matter) and the proposed dealing
      would (if permitted) take place after the time when it has become
      reasonably probable that an announcement will be required in relation to
      that matter; or

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              6.3

            	
              any
      period when the person responsible for the clearance otherwise has reason
      to believe that the proposed dealing is in breach of this
      Code.

              7

            	
              A
      written record must be maintained by the Company of the receipt of any
      advice received from a director or applicable employee pursuant to
      paragraph 5 of this Code and of any clearance given. Written confirmation
      from the Company that such advice and clearance (if any) have been
      recorded must be given to the director or applicable employee
      concerned.

            

    

    

    Dealing
in exceptional circumstances

    

    
      	
              8

            	
              Pursuant
      to Rule 21, the Exchange may give clearance to a director or applicable
      employee to sell (but not to purchase) securities when he would otherwise
      be prohibited from doing so in order to alleviate severe personal
      hardship.

            

    

    

    Director
acting as trustee

    

    
      	
              9

            	
              Where
      a director or applicable employee is a sole trustee (other than a bare
      trustee), the provisions of this Code will apply, as if he were dealing on
      his own account. Where a director or applicable employee is a co-trustee
      (other than a bare trustee), he must advise his co-trustees of the name of
      the company of which he is a director or applicable employee. If the
      director or applicable employee is not a beneficiary, a dealing in his
      company's securities undertaken by that trust will not be regarded as a
      dealing by the director or applicable employee for the purposes of this
      Code, where the decision to deal is taken by the other trustees acting
      independently of the director or applicable employee or by investment
      managers on behalf of the trustees. The other trustees or the investment
      managers will be assumed to have acted independently of the director or
      applicable employee for this purpose where
they:

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              9.1

            	
              have
      taken the decision to deal without consultation with, or other involvement
      of, the director or applicable employee concerned;
  or

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              9.2

            	
              if
      they have delegated the decision making to a committee of which the
      director or applicable employee is not a
member.

            

    

    

    Dealings
by connected persons and investment managers

    

    
      	
              10

            	
              A
      director or applicable employee must (so far as is consistent with his
      duties of confidentiality to his company) seek to prohibit (by taking the
      steps set out in paragraph 11 of this Code) any dealing in securities of
      the Company during a close period or at a time when the director or
      applicable employee is in possession of unpublished price sensitive
      information in relation to those securities and would be prohibited from
      dealing under paragraph 6.1.2 of this
Code:

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              10.1

            	
              by
      or on behalf of any person connected with him;
  or

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              10.2

            	
              by
      an investment manager on his behalf or on behalf of any person connected
      with him where either he or any person connected with him has funds under
      management with that investment manager, whether or not discretionary
      (save as provided in paragraphs 9 and 17 of this
  Code).

            

    

    

    
      	
              11

            	
              For
      the purposes of paragraph 10 of this Code, a director or applicable
      employee must advise all such connected persons and investment
      managers:

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              11.1

            	
              of
      the name of the Company of which he is a director or applicable
      employee;

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              11.2

            	
              of
      the close periods during which they cannot deal in the Company's
      securities;

            

    

    
      
         

      

      
        15

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              11.3

            	
              of
      any other periods when the director or applicable employee knows he is not
      himself free to deal in securities of the Company under the provisions of
      this Code unless his duty of confidentiality to the Company prohibits him
      from disclosing such periods; and

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              11.4

            	
              that
      they must advise him immediately after they have dealt in securities of the
      Company (save as provided in paragraphs 9 and 17 of this
      Code).

    Awards
of securities and options

    

    
      	
              12

            	
              Subject
      to paragraph 13 below, the award of securities, the grant of options and
      the grant of rights (or other interests) to acquire securities in the
      Company to directors and/or applicable employees of the Company is
      permitted in a prohibited period
if:

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              12.1

            	
              the
      award or grant is made under the terms of an employees’ share
      scheme;

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              12.2

            	
              the
      terms of such employees' share scheme set
out:

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              12.2.1

            	
              the
      timing of the award or grant and such terms have
  either:

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              12.2.1.1

            	
              previously
      been approved by shareholders or summarised or described in a document
      sent to shareholders, or

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              12.2.1.2

            	
              the
      timing of the award or grant is in accordance with the timing of previous
      awards or grants under the scheme;
and

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              12.2.2

            	
              the
      amount or value of the award or grant or the basis on which the amount or
      value of the award or grant is calculated;
and

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              12.3

            	
              the
      failure to make the award or grant would be likely to indicate that the
      Company is in a prohibited period.

cases of doubt the Company’s nominated
adviser should be consulted.

      subject to the provisions of this Code, unless they fall within paragraph
      20.8 below:

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              13.1

            	
              a
      discretionary award or grant under an employees' share scheme, which would
      not otherwise have been made but for the event that led to the
      commencement of the prohibited period;
and

            

    

    

    
      	
               
      

            	
              13.2

            	
              an
      award or grant under an employees' share scheme which is made in a
      prohibited period during which the relevant scheme was introduced, or in
      the case of an existing scheme, the relevant scheme was
      amended.

            

    

    

    Exercise

              14

            	
              The
      chairman or other designated director may allow the exercise of an option
      or right under an employees’ share
      scheme, or the conversion of a convertible security, where the final date
      for the exercise of such option or right, or conversion of such security,
      falls during any prohibited period and the director could not reasonably
      have been expected to exercise it at an earlier time when he was free to
      deal (see also paragraph 20.8).

            

    

    

    
      	
              15

            	
              Where
      an exercise or conversion is permitted pursuant to paragraph 14 or 20.8 of
      this Code, the chairman or other designated director may not, however,
      give clearance for the sale of securities acquired pursuant to such
      exercise or conversion.

              16

            	
              The
      chairman or other designated director may allow a director to acquire
      qualification shares without regard to the provisions of this Code where,
      under the Company’s articles
      of association, the final date for acquiring such shares falls during a
      prohibited period and the director could not reasonably have been expected
      to acquire those shares at another
time.

              A
      director or applicable employee may enter into a scheme in which only the
      securities of the Company are purchased pursuant to a regular standing
      order or direct debit or by regular deduction from the director or
      applicable employee's salary, or where such securities are acquired by way of a standing election to
      re-invest dividends or other distributions received, or are acquired as
      part payment of a director or applicable employee’s
      remuneration without regard to the provisions of the Code, if the

              the
      director or applicable employee does not enter into the scheme during a
      prohibited period, unless the scheme involves the part payment of
      remuneration in the form of securities and is entered into upon the
      director's appointment to the board or the commencement of the applicable
      employee's employment;

      Legal Advice

              

      

      

      Occasions
may arise when you consider that you will need professional advice in connection
with the performance of your duties as a director of the Company and you will be
able to consult the Company’s advisors for this purpose. Exceptional
circumstances may occur when it may be appropriate for you to seek such advice
from independent advisors, at the Company’s expense. In such an event, you
should, where reasonably practical and not (in your reasonable judgment)
prejudicial to the interests of the Company, consult with the Board or, if you
consider appropriate, the non-executive directors, prior to such advice being
sought or expense being incurred.

      Medgenics,
Inc. (the “Company”) has adopted the
following code for transactions in securities by directors, applicable employees
and persons connected with them (the “Code”). Directors, applicable employees and
persons connected with them should consider carefully the application of the
Code prior to any dealings in the securities in the Company. Directors,
applicable employees and persons connected with them should note however
that:

      

      
        	
                (a)

              	
                Under
      the Criminal Justice Act 1993, it is a criminal offence for an individual
      who has information as an insider to deal on a regulated market, or
      through or as a professional intermediary, in securities whose price would
      be significantly affected if the inside information were made public. It
      is also an offence to encourage insider dealing and to disclose inside
      information with a view to others profiting from
  it.

              

      

      

      
        	
                (b)

              	
                The
      Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (“FSMA”) introduced
      a civil offence regime relating to market abuse, which supplements the
      existing offences of insider dealing and market manipulation/misleading
      statements offences under the FSMA. The offence, which also applies to
      securities traded on AIM, applies:

              

      

       

      
        	
                 
      

              	
                (i)

              	
                where
      there is behaviour (including anything said, done or written, or not)
      including misuse of non public information, misleading the market or
      distorting the market; and

              

      

       

      
        	
                 
      

              	
                (ii)

              	
                which
      falls below the standard of behaviour that a regular user of the relevant
      market would reasonably expect of a person in the same position as whoever
      is committing the offence in relation to that
  market.

              

      

      

      
        	
                (c)

              	
                Encouraging
      someone else to engage in market abuse is also an offence. The offence
      applies to any person (corporates as well as individuals), it can catch
      behaviour outside the UK, it is purely effect-based (no intention is
      required) and no transaction is
required.

              

      

      

      
        	
                (d)

              	
                The
      Financial Services Authority (“FSA”) has powers to impose an unlimited
      fine or make a public statement about market abuse and to apply for court
      orders to remedy instances of market abuse. The FSA Code of Conduct sets
      out the FSA’s opinion on behaviour it considers is/is not, market abuse
      and the facts it will take into account when determining the
      question.

              

      

      

      
        	
                (e)

              	
                You
      must take care before any form of dealing in the Company’s securities and
      where appropriate, consult the Company’s nominated adviser or solicitors.
      For example, a dealing which may fall outside the Code might still
      constitute an offence under insider dealing or market abuse
      legislation.

              

      

       

      
        	
                (f)

              	
                This
      document addresses the share dealing restrictions set out in the AIM Rules
      for Companies alone. Its purpose is to ensure that Directors, applicable
      employees and their families do not abuse, or place themselves under
      suspicion of abusing, price-sensitive information that they may have or be
      thought to have, especially in periods leading up to an announcement of
      results.

              

      

      

      
        	
                (g)

              	
                A
      Director is also under an obligation to notify the Company in writing of
      his or her interests (and of the interests of persons connected with him
      or her) from time to time in its securities (within the meaning of the AIM
      Rules for Companies). A Director must disclose to the Company all
      information known to him or her (or which he or she could with reasonable
      diligence ascertain) which it needs in order to comply with that
      obligation. You must take care and where appropriate consult the Company’s
      nominated adviser or solicitor. For example, a dealing which may fall
      outside the Code might still need to be disclosed to the
      Company.

              

      

      

      
        
          
             

          

          
            11

            
              

            

          

          
             

          

        

      

      

      
        	
                (h)

              	
                The
      preceding introduction and the paragraph headings in this document, do not
      form part of the Code, are for guidance and ease of reference only and are
      not to be construed as affecting the substance or interpretation of the
      Code.

              

      

      

      
        	
                (i)

              	
                Compliance
      with the Code may not constitute a defence to any charge under applicable
      law.

              

      

       

      If
there is any doubt as to the application of the Code, the Company’s nominated
adviser should be consulted by the Company at an early stage.

                  3.1

      accordance with Rule 18 of the Rules to the Regulatory Information Service
      or, if shorter, the period from the relevant financial period end up to
      and including the time of such notification;

      shorter, the period from the relevant financial period end up to and
      including the time of the notification (save that for the final quarter
      paragraph 3.1 of this Code applies);

                3.3

              	
                any
      time it has become reasonably probable that such information will be
      required by this Code and/or the Rules to be
  notified.

              

      

      

      
        	
                4

              	
                A
      director or applicable employee must not deal in any securities of the
      Company at any time when he is in possession of unpublished
      price-sensitive information in relation to those securities, or otherwise
      where clearance to deal is not given under paragraph 5 of this
      Code.

                A
      director or applicable employee or persons connected with them must not
      deal in any securities of the Company without advising the chairman (or
      one or more other directors designated for this purpose) in advance and
      receiving clearance. In his own case, the chairman, or other designated
      director, must advise the board in advance at a board meeting, or advise
      another designated director, and receive clearance from the board or
      designated director, as
appropriate.

for refusal

      

      
        	
                6

              	
                A
      director or applicable employee or persons connected with them must not be
      given clearance (as required by paragraph 5 of this Code) to deal in any
      securities of the Company during a prohibited
  period.

              

      

      

      A “prohibited period” means:

       

      
        	 	
                6.1

              	
                any
      close period;

              

      

      

      
        	
                 
      

              	
                6.2

              	
                any
      period when there exists any matter which constitutes unpublished price
      sensitive information in relation to the Company’s securities (whether or
      not the director has knowledge of such matter) and the proposed dealing
      would (if permitted) take place after the time when it has become
      reasonably probable that an announcement will be required in relation to
      that matter; or

              

      

      

      
        	
                 
      

              	
                6.3

              	
                any
      period when the person responsible for the clearance otherwise has reason
      to believe that the proposed dealing is in breach of this
      Code.

                7

              	
                A
      written record must be maintained by the Company of the receipt of any
      advice received from a director or applicable employee pursuant to
      paragraph 5 of this Code and of any clearance given. Written confirmation
      from the Company that such advice and clearance (if any) have been
      recorded must be given to the director or applicable employee
      concerned.

              

      

      

      Dealing
in exceptional circumstances

      

      
        	
                8

              	
                Pursuant
      to Rule 21, the Exchange may give clearance to a director or applicable
      employee to sell (but not to purchase) securities when he would otherwise
      be prohibited from doing so in order to alleviate severe personal
      hardship.

              

      

      

      Director
acting as trustee

      

      
        	
                9

              	
                Where
      a director or applicable employee is a sole trustee (other than a bare
      trustee), the provisions of this Code will apply, as if he were dealing on
      his own account. Where a director or applicable employee is a co-trustee
      (other than a bare trustee), he must advise his co-trustees of the name of
      the company of which he is a director or applicable employee. If the
      director or applicable employee is not a beneficiary, a dealing in his
      company’s securities undertaken by that trust will not be regarded as a
      dealing by the director or applicable employee for the purposes of this
      Code, where the decision to deal is taken by the other trustees acting
      independently of the director or applicable employee or by investment
      managers on behalf of the trustees. The other trustees or the investment
      managers will be assumed to have acted independently of the director or
      applicable employee for this purpose where
they:

              

      

      

      
        	
                 
      

              	
                9.1

              	
                have
      taken the decision to deal without consultation with, or other involvement
      of, the director or applicable employee concerned;
  or

              

      

      

      
        	
                 
      

              	
                9.2

              	
                if
      they have delegated the decision making to a committee of which the
      director or applicable employee is not a
member.

                10

              	
                A
      director or applicable employee must (so far as is consistent with his
      duties of confidentiality to his company) seek to prohibit (by taking the
      steps set out in paragraph 11 of this Code) any dealing in securities of
      the Company during a close period or at a time when the director or
      applicable employee is in possession of unpublished price sensitive
      information in relation to those securities and would be prohibited from
      dealing under paragraph 6.1.2 of this
Code:

              

      

      

      
        	 	
                10.1

              	
                by
      or on behalf of any person connected with him;
  or

              

      

      

      
        	
                 
      

              	
                10.2

              	
                by
      an investment manager on his behalf or on behalf of any person connected
      with him where either he or any person connected with him has funds under
      management with that investment manager, whether or not discretionary
      (save as provided in paragraphs 9 and 17 of this
  Code).

                  For
      the purposes of paragraph 10 of this Code, a director or applicable
      employee must advise all such connected persons and investment
      managers:

                

        

      

      

      
        	 	
                11.1

              	
                of
      the name of the Company of which he is a director or applicable
      employee;

              

      

       

      
        	 	
                11.2 

              	
                of
      the close periods during which they cannot deal in the Company’s
      securities;

                  11.3

                	
                  of
      any other periods when the director or applicable employee knows he is not
      himself free to deal in securities of the Company under the provisions of
      this Code unless his duty of confidentiality to the Company prohibits him
      from disclosing such periods;
and

      they must advise him immediately after they have dealt in securities of
      the Company (save as provided in paragraphs 9 and 17 of this

                  12.3

                	
                  the
      failure to make the award or grant would be likely to indicate that the
      Company is in a prohibited
period.

                

        

      

      

      In
cases of doubt the Company’s nominated adviser should be consulted.

                The

                a
      discretionary award or grant under an employees’ share scheme, which would
      not otherwise have been made but for the event that led to the
      commencement of the prohibited period;
and

      the case of an existing scheme, the relevant scheme was
      amended.

                The
      chairman or other designated director may allow the exercise of an option
      or right under an employees’ share scheme, or the conversion of a
      convertible security, where the final date for the exercise of such option
      or right, or conversion of such security, falls during any prohibited
      period and the director could not reasonably have been expected to
      exercise it at an earlier time when he was free to deal (see also
      paragraph 20.8).

              

      

      

      
        	
                15

              	
                Where an exercise or conversion
      is permitted pursuant to paragraph 14 or 20.8 of this Code, the chairman
      or other designated director may not, however, give clearance for the
      sale of securities acquired pursuant to such exercise or
      conversion.

                16

              	
                The
      chairman or other designated director may allow a director to acquire
      qualification shares without regard to the provisions of this Code where,
      under the Company’s articles
      of association, the final date for acquiring such shares falls during a
      prohibited period and the director could not reasonably have been expected
      to acquire those shares at another
time.

      securities of the Company are purchased pursuant to a regular standing
      order or direct debit or by regular deduction from the director or
      applicable employee’s salary, or where such securities are acquired by way
      of a standing election to re-invest dividends or other distributions

                the
      director or applicable employee does not enter into the scheme during a
      prohibited period, unless the scheme involves the part payment of
      remuneration in the form of securities and is entered into upon the
      director’s
      appointment to the board or the commencement of the applicable employee’s
      employment;

                the
      director or applicable employee does not carry out the first purchase of
      securities of the Company under the scheme during a prohibited period,
      unless the director or applicable employee is irrevocably bound under the
      terms of the scheme to carry out the first purchase of securities at a
      fixed point in time which falls in a prohibited
  period;

                the

      participation, or carry out sales of the securities of the Company within
      the scheme during a prohibited period;
and

              

      

      

      
        	
                 
      

              	
                17.4

              	
                before
      entering into the scheme or cancelling the scheme or varying the terms of
      his/her participation or carrying out sales of the securities of the
      Company within the scheme, the director or applicable employee obtains
      clearance under paragraph 5 of this
Code.

                The
      provisions of this Code do not apply to an investment by a director or
      applicable employee in a scheme or arrangement where the assets of the
      scheme or arrangement are invested at the discretion of a third party or
      to a dealing by the director or applicable employee in the units of an
      authorised unit trust or in shares in an open ended investment company. In
      the case of a scheme investing only in the securities of the Company the
      provisions of paragraph 17 of this Code
apply.
