In reference to section 9, the shares detailed are managed by the named discretionary investment management entity within multiple portfolios on behalf of underlying clients, based on investment management agreements whereby the client has delegated the exercise of the voting power to the referenced investment manager.

This disclosure is also to reflect the fact that that the voting rights held indirectly by the underlying investment management entity Aberdeen Asset Management Asia Limited increased above the 18% notifiable threshold due to an event changing the breakdown of voting rights on 15 January 2018. The holding prior to this crossing was 17.97%.
