This shall not affect when the notice, document or information was deemed to be received in accordance with sub-paragraph (d).

Every person who, by operation of law, transfer or other means, shall become entitled to any share shall be bound by every notice or other document which, prior to his or her name and address being entered on the register in respect of such share, shall have been given to any person in whose name the share shall have been previously registered.

Any notice, communication, document or information given, served or delivered to a member in accordance with regulation 32 shall, notwithstanding that such member be then deceased, and whether or not the Company has notice of his or her death, shall be deemed to have been duly given, served or delivered in respect of any shares, whether held solely or jointly with other persons by such member, until some other person or persons be registered in his or her place as the holder or joint holders of such shares, and such delivery or service shall for all purposes of this constitution be deemed a sufficient service or delivery of such notice, communication, document or information on his or her executors or administrators, and all persons (if any) jointly interested with him or her in any such share.

The signature to any notice to be given by the Company may be written or printed.

A notification to a member of the publication of a notice, communication, document or information on a website as permitted by this constitution shall state:

the fact of the publication of the notice, communication, document or information on a website;

the address of that website and, where necessary, the place on that website where the notice, communication, document or information may be accessed and how it may be accessed; and

in the case of a notice of a general meeting of members or of a class of members:

that it concerns a notice of a meeting served in accordance with this constitution or by order of a court, as the case may be;

the place, date and time of the meeting; and

whether the meeting is to be an annual general meeting or an extraordinary general meeting; and

the address of any other website (if such is the case) where procedures as to voting are stated or facilitated.

The notice, communication, document or information referred to in regulation 36 shall be published on that website, in the case of a notice of meeting, throughout the period beginning with the giving of that notification and ending with the conclusion of the meeting, and in any other case the notice, communication, document or information shall be published on the website for a period of not less than one month from the giving of the notification except that, in the case of the documents referred to in section 338(2), the documents are published on the website until the conclusion of the relevant meeting.

Nothing in regulations 36 or 37 shall invalidate the proceedings of a meeting where:

any notice that is required to be published as mentioned in regulation 37 is published for a part, but not all, of the period mentioned in that regulation; and

the failure to publish that notice throughout that period is attributable to circumstances which it would not be reasonable to have expected the Company to prevent or avoid, including, without limitation, system, telecommunications or power outages.

Every director, managing director, agent, auditor, secretary or other officer of the Company shall be entitled to be indemnified out of the assets of the Company against all losses or liabilities which he or she may sustain or incur in or about the execution of the duties of his or her office or otherwise in relation thereto, including any liability incurred by the officer in defending any proceedings, whether civil or criminal, in which judgment is given in his or her favour or in which the officer is acquitted or in connection with any application under sections 233 or 234 in which relief is granted to him or her by the Court, and no director or other officer shall be liable for any loss, damage or misfortune which may happen to or be incurred by the Company in the execution of the duties of his or her office or in relation thereto. This regulation shall only have effect in so far as its provisions are not avoided by section 235.
