The Company ADR programme is sponsored by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. As the depositary bank, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. performs the following roles for ADR holders as further detailed in the Deposit Agreement:
For those holders who are not registered because their ADRs are held through a ‘Street name’ (nominee account), your nominee will receive Company documents from time to time from JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. to distribute to ADR holders. You need to make arrangements with your nominee if you wish to receive such documents and to be able to exercise your vote through the depositary bank at General Meetings (if applicable).
An ADR is a US dollar denominated negotiable certificate that represents ownership of shares in a non-US company.
Each ADR is issued by a US depositary bank (which is a bank in the US which oversees all the stock transfer and agency services in connection with a depository receipt programme) and represents one or more shares of a foreign stock or a fraction of a share. If investors own an ADR they have the right to obtain the foreign stock it represents, but US investors usually find it more convenient to own the ADR. The price of an ADR is often close to the price of the foreign stock in its home market, adjusted for the ratio of the foreign company’s shares to ADRs. ADRs were specifically designed to facilitate the purchase, holding and sale of non-US securities by US investors.
Implats ADRs represent Implats ordinary shares deposited with the depositary bank (JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.), to underlie such certificates and carry the rights attached to them as detailed in the Deposit Agreement. Holders of ADRs receive dividends in US dollars and have the right to vote on shareholder resolutions, where applicable.
The terms ADR and ADS are often used interchangeably. Individual shares of a foreign corporation represented by an ADR are called American Depository Shares (ADS). This is the instrument that is actually traded. Although the terms ADR and ADS are used interchangeably, the difference is that an ADR is the certificate while the ADSs are the shares.

Implats ADR programme is administered by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. As the depositary bank, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. performs the following roles for ADR holders as further detailed in the Deposit Agreement:
For those holders who are not registered because their ADRs are held through a ‘Street name’ (nominee account), your nominee will receive Company documents from time to time from Deutsche Bank to distribute to ADR holders. You need to make arrangements with your nominee if you wish to receive such documents and to be able to exercise your vote through the depositary bank at General Meetings (if applicable).

US investors may prefer to purchase ADRs rather than ordinary shares in the issuer’s home market because ADRs trade, clear and settle in US Dollars and according to US market conventions. ADRs allow easy comparison to securities of similar companies as well as access to price and trading information. Holders of ADRs also receive dividends in US dollars.
