Important Notice to Investors of Unsponsored DRs and GDNs:

From time to time, BNY may pay a rebate to brokers that deposit shares with BNY for the issuance of unsponsored depositary receipts (DRs) or global depositary notes. BNY assumes no obligation or responsibility, and expressly disclaims any liability arising out of, or relating to, such rebates, including without limitation whether the rebate or any portion of it is passed on to the beneficial holders by the brokers.
Unsponsored DRs may be issued by multiple depositary banks servicing a particular DR program. Consequently, as a result of Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (“DTCC”) practice, the actual cash distribution fees charged may differ from the BNY fees detailed in the fee schedule as fees will be charged in accordance with the fee schedule of the depositary bank that is considered to be the “First Filer”. The fees to be charged for any particular unsponsored cash distribution will be disclosed on the event announcement published by the “First Filer”. BNY takes no responsibility for the level of fees charged by any other depositary bank. The “First Filer” is the depositary bank that filed the first Form F-6 for a program with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the event the actual “First Filer” does not have DRs outstanding for a program, the next depositary bank who filed a
Form F-6 with the SEC and has DRs outstanding will be deemed to be the First Filer for these purposes.
