CRP SHARES CURRENTLY CONVERT AT THE ELECTION OF THE CRP SHAREHOLDERS ON THE BASIS OF 1.25 ORDINARY SHARES FOR EVERY 1 CRP SHARE. ADJUSTMENT TO INCREASE THIS RATIO TO 1.30 TO 1 WILL BE SOUGHT, TO ALLOW FOR DIVIDEND EQUALISATION BETWEEN THE 2 SECURITIES.

GRD HAS ADVISED THAT IT WILL LIFT ITS ANNUAL ORDINARY SHARE DIVIDEND PAYOUT TO A5CPS, IF THE PROPOSAL IS ACCEPTED. THIS FOLLOWS A3CPS DIVIDENDS PAID IN 2000, INCREASING TO 4CPS IN 2001.
