ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.

    Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the U.S. Securities
Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless

                                      II-5
<PAGE>
in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

    The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:

    (1) It will provide to the underwriters at the closing specified in the
       underwriting agreement certificates in such denominations and registered
       in such names as required by the underwriters to permit prompt delivery
       to each purchaser.

    (2) For purposes of determining any liability under the U.S. Securities Act,
       the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this
       registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form
       of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or
       (4) or 497(h) under the U.S. Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of
       this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

    (3) For the purpose of determining any liability under the U.S. Securities
       Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus
       shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
       securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that
       time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

                                   SIGNATURES


    Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant
has duly caused this Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement to be signed
on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in London, England,
on September 11, 2000.
