	CRP SHAREHOLDERS WILL BE ASKED TO APPROVE VARIATION TO THEIR CRP SHARES, TO EFFECT MANDATORY CONVERSION BY 30/09/2001. CRP SHAREHOLDER MEETING TO BE HELD 20/08/2001 - 75% OF THOSE CRP SHAREHOLDERS PRESENT MUST VOTE IN FAVOUR OF THE PROPOSAL FOR THE PROPOSAL TO COME INTO EFFECT. CRP SHARES CURRENTLY CONVERT AT THE ELECTION OF THE CRP SHAREHOLDERS ON THE BASIS OF 1.34 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. AN INDEPENDENT EXPERT'S REPORT ACCOMPANYING THE NOTICE OF MEETING TO SHAREHOLDERS WILL ANALYSE THE COMMERCIAL BALANCE OF THE PROPOSAL. 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. THE 2ND A2CPS DIVIDEND FOR 2001 WILL BE PAID TO ORDINARY SHAREHOLDERS (INCLUDING CONVERTED CRP SHAREHOLDERS) BY 15/10/2001. THIS WOULD EQUATE TO A2.68CP CRP SHARE.
