(2) Cash Settlement Amount per Board Lot = Entitlement x (Sum of the Periodic Reference Prices/Number of Periodic Fixing Dates - Exercise Price) x One Board Lot/Number of Warrants per Entitlement Investors should note that the calculation of the Cash Settlement Amount takes into account the Periodic Reference Price at each Periodic Fixing Date. The average of all the Periodic Reference Prices is then compared with the Exercise Price before the Cash Settlement Amount is determined. The Cash Settlement Amount of each series of Warrants will not be the same as the relevant Periodic Reference Price set out above. * Investors should note that the description "Average Return" refers to the calculation of the return on the Warrants only; the return of the Average Return Warrants is calculated by reference to the average of the Periodic Reference Prices, that is, by reference to the sum of the Periodic Reference Prices divided by the number of the Periodic Fixing Dates; if the average of the Periodic Reference Prices is less than the Exercise Price on the Expiry Date, the Warrants will expire worthless and the holders of the Warrants will lose all their investment.
