and governmental regulations, at the Holder’s option, (1) to delivery at the office of the agent, nominee, custodian or
correspondent of the Depositary, to a person specified by the Holder, of the amount of Deposited Securities represented hereby
or evidence of the right to receive the same or (2) to have such Deposited Securities forwarded at such Holder’s cost
and risk to him at the Depositary’s Office.
The term “Beneficial
Owner” shall mean any person who has a beneficial interest in any American Depositary Share evidenced by this Receipt. The
term “Holder” shall mean the person or persons in whose name this Receipt is registered upon the books of the Depositary
from time to time. The term “Securities Act of 1933” shall mean the United States Securities Act of 1933,

1.
Receipts
.
This
Receipt is one of a continuing issue of Receipts, all evidencing rights of like tenor with respect to the Deposited Securities,
and all issued or to be issued upon the terms and conditions provided herein, which shall govern the continuing arrangement by
the Depositary with respect to initial deposits as well as the rights of Holders and Beneficial Owners of Receipts subsequent
to such deposits. The Depositary will not knowingly accept for deposit any Shares required to be registered under the
provisions of the Securities Act of 1933 unless a registration statement is in effect as to such Shares.
2.
Withdrawal
of Deposited Securities and cancellation of Receipts
.
Receipts may be surrendered for withdrawal of the Deposited
Securities and cancellation only in multiples of whole Shares of the Issuer. The surrender of outstanding Receipts and the withdrawal
of Deposited Securities may only be suspended for (i) temporary delays caused by closing the transfer books of the Depositary
or the Issuer or the deposit of Shares in connection with voting at a shareholders’ meeting or the payment of dividends,
(ii) the payment of fees, taxes and similar charges, (iii) compliance with any U.S. or foreign laws or governmental regulations
relating to the Receipts or to the withdrawal of the Deposited Securities or (iv) any other reason that may at any time be specified
in paragraph I(A)(1) of the General Instructions to Form F-6, as from time to time in effect, or any successor provision thereto.
If the American Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipts are fungible with American Depositary Shares representing Shares of
the Issuer and issued by another depositary bank in respect thereof and/or other property held by such depositary bank, the Depositary
shall be entitled to cancel any Receipt and cause the replacement of it, without the consent of the Holder, with a receipt representing
an equivalent number of such American Depositary Shares issued by another depositary bank, which may thereafter be surrendered
as provided in that other receipt, for which purposes American Depositary Shares issued by different depositary banks shall be
deemed to be fungible if they have the same Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures number and/or trading symbol.
The Depositary shall notify Holders of the change in depositary not less than 30 days prior to the Depositary (or any of its affiliates)
cancelling and replacing any Receipt(s), as described above. Any such cancellation and replacement shall be at the Depositary’s
expense and at no cost to the Holder.
3.
Transfer
of Receipts; Combination and Split-up of Receipts
.
Until the surrender of this Receipt in accordance
with the terms hereof, the Depositary will keep at a designated transfer office in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York,
a register for the registration and registration of transfers of Receipts and where the Holders of Receipts may, during regular
business hours, inspect the transfer books or the list of Holders of Receipts as maintained by the Depositary. The
transfer of this Receipt is registrable on the transfer books of the Depositary at the Depositary’s Office in the City of
New York by the Holder hereof in person or by duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of this Receipt properly endorsed for transfer
or accompanied by proper instruments of transfer and payment of funds sufficient to pay the fees and expenses of the Depositary
and any applicable taxes and other governmental charges and upon compliance with such regulations, if any, as the Depositary may
establish for such purpose. This Receipt may be split into other such Receipts, or may be combined with other such
Receipts into one Receipt, representing the same aggregate number of Deposited Securities as were represented by the American
Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipt or Receipts surrendered. Upon any such split or combination not involving
a transfer, a charge may be made as provided herein. The Depositary may close the transfer books at any time or from
time to time when deemed expedient by it in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder, subject to the provisions
of Article 2 hereof.
4.
Proof
of Citizenship, Residence, etc.
The Depositary may require any Holder or Beneficial Owner of Receipts, or any
person presenting securities for deposit against the issuance of Receipts, from time to time, to file such proof of citizenship
or residence and to furnish such other information, by affidavit or otherwise, and to execute such certificates and other instruments
as may be necessary or proper to comply with the constitutional documents of the Issuer or any laws or regulations relating to
the ownership of Shares, the issuance or transfer of Receipts, the receipt or distribution of dividends or other property or the
taxation thereof or of Receipts or Deposited Securities. Each Holder and Beneficial Owner of Receipts agrees to comply with the
foregoing and the Depositary may withhold the issuance or registration of transfer of any Receipt or payment of such dividends
or delivery of such property from any Holder, Beneficial Owner or other person, as the case may be, who shall fail to file such
proofs, certificates or other instruments.
Each Holder and
Beneficial Owner consents to the disclosure by the Depositary of all information furnished by it pursuant to this Article.
5.
Transferability
and Record Ownership
.
It is a condition of this Receipt, and every successive Holder and Beneficial Owner of
this Receipt by accepting or holding the same consents and agrees, that title to this Receipt, when properly endorsed or accompanied
by proper instrument of transfer, is transferable by delivery with the same effect as in the case of a negotiable instrument;
provided
,
however
, that prior to the due presentation of this Receipt for registration of transfer as provided in
Article 3 hereof, and subject to the provisions of Article 13 hereof, the Depositary, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary,
may treat the person in whose name this Receipt is registered on the books of the Depositary as the absolute owner hereof for
the purpose of determining the persons entitled to dividends or other distributions or to any notice pursuant to the terms hereof
and for all other purposes.
6.
Limitations
on Execution and Delivery, Transfer and Surrender of Receipts
.
Subject to the provisions of Article 2 hereof, the
delivery of Receipts against deposits of Shares generally or against deposits of particular Shares may be suspended, or the registration
of transfer of Receipts in particular instances may be refused, or registration of transfer of outstanding Receipts or the combination
or split-up of Receipts generally may be suspended, during any period when the transfer books of the Depositary are closed, or
if any such action is deemed necessary, expedient or advisable by the Depositary at any time or from time to time because of any
requirement of law or of any government or governmental body or commission, or under any provision of this Receipt, or for any
other reason.
7.
Liability
of Holder for Taxes; Etc.
The Depositary shall not be liable for any governmental taxes, assessments or charges
or corporate assessments or charges which may become payable in respect of the Deposited Securities or Receipts, but a ratable
part of any and all of the same, whether such tax, assessment or charge becomes payable by reason of any present or future tax,
statute, charter provision, by-law, regulation or otherwise, shall be payable by the Holder of this Receipt to the Depositary
at any time upon request and by holding or having held an American Depositary Share or Receipt, the Holder and all prior Holders
hereof, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify, defend and save harmless each of the Depositary and its agents in respect thereof. Upon
the failure of the Holder of this Receipt to pay any such amount, the Depositary may withhold dividends or other distributions,
or may sell for the account of such Holder all or any part of the Deposited Securities represented by the American Depositary
Shares evidenced by this Receipt, and may apply such dividends or other distributions or the proceeds of any such sale in payment
of such tax, assessment or charge, and the Holder hereof shall remain liable for any deficiency. If the Depositary determines
that any distribution other than cash (including, without limitation, Shares and rights) is subject to any tax that the Depositary
or the Custodian is obligated to withhold, the Depositary may dispose of all or a portion of such property in such amounts and
in such manner as the Depositary deems necessary and practicable to pay such taxes, by public or private sale, and the Depositary
shall distribute the net proceeds of any such sale or the balance of any such property after deduction of such taxes to the Holders
entitled thereto. Neither the Depositary nor the Custodian shall be liable for the failure by any Holder or Beneficial Owner to
obtain the benefits of credits on the basis of non-U.S. tax paid against such Holder’s or Beneficial Owner’s income
tax liability. The Depositary is under no obligation to provide the Holders and Beneficial Owners with any information
about the tax status of the Issuer. The Depositary shall not incur any liability for any tax consequences that may be incurred
by Holders and Beneficial Owners on account of their ownership of the American Depositary Shares, including without limitation,
tax consequences resulting if the Issuer (or any of its subsidiaries) is treated as a “Passive Foreign Investment Company”
(as defined in the U.S. Internal Revenue Code and the regulations issued thereunder) or otherwise. Every Holder and Beneficial
Owner agrees to, and shall, indemnify the Depositary, the Custodian and each and every of their respective officers, directors,
employees, agents and affiliates against, and hold each of them harmless from, any claims with respect to taxes, additions to
tax (including applicable interest and penalties thereon) arising out of any refund of taxes, reduced rate of withholding at source
or other tax benefit obtained.
8.
Available
Information
. As of the date of the establishment of the program for issuance of Receipts by the Depositary,
the Depositary had a good faith belief (after limited investigation), that the Issuer publishes information in English required
to maintain the exemption from registration under Rule 12g3-2(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Securities
Exchange Act of 1934”) on its Internet Web site (www.dior.com) or through an electronic information delivery system generally
available to the public in its primary trading market. Should such Issuer become subject to the periodic reporting or other informational
requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, it will be required in accordance therewith to file reports and other
information with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The Depositary does not assume any duty to determine
if the Issuer is complying with the current requirements of Rule 12g3-2(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or to take
any action if the Issuer is not complying with those requirements.

Representations,
Warranties and Agreements
.
Every person presenting Shares for deposit shall be deemed thereby to represent
and warrant that (i) such Shares and, if applicable, each certificate therefor, are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid,
nonassessable and were legally obtained by such person, (ii) all pre-emptive (and similar) rights, if any, with respect to such
Shares have been validly waived or exercised, (iii) the person making such deposit is duly authorized so to do, (iv) the Shares
presented for deposit are free and clear of any lien, encumbrance, security interest, charge, mortgage or adverse claim, and have
not been stripped of any rights or entitlements, and (v) such person or the Holder or the Beneficial Owner is not the Issuer or
an officer, director (or person performing similar functions) of the Issuer, does not directly or indirectly control, is not directly
or indirectly controlled by and is not under common control with the Issuer and does not intend to deliver the Receipt evidencing
such Shares to any of the foregoing. Each such person shall also be deemed to represent that the Shares would not be required
to be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 in connection with the offer or sale thereof in the United States. Such
representations and warranties shall survive the deposit and withdrawal of Shares, the issuance and cancellation of American Depositary
Shares in respect thereof and the transfer of such American Depositary Shares. If any such representations or warranties
are false in any way, the Depositary shall be authorized, at the cost and expense of the person depositing Shares, to take any
and all actions necessary to correct the consequences thereof. Holders and Beneficial Owners shall comply with any
limitations on ownership of Shares under the constitutional documents of the Issuer or applicable law as if they held the number
of Shares their American Depositary Shares represent.
10.
Further
Conditions
.
This Receipt is issued subject, and all rights of the Holder and Beneficial Owner hereof are expressly
subject, to the terms and conditions set forth on both sides of this Receipt, all of which form a part of the agreement evidenced
in this Receipt and to all of which the Holder and Beneficial Owner hereof by accepting this Receipt consent and agree.
11.
Notices;
Voting Rights
.
The Depositary shall be under no obligation to give notice to the Holder or any Beneficial Owner
of this Receipt of any meeting of shareholders or of any report of or communication from the Issuer or of any other matter concerning
the affairs of the Issuer, except as herein expressly provided. The Depositary undertakes to make available for inspection
by Holders of the Receipts at the Depositary’s Office any reports and communications received by the Depositary or any agent,
nominee, custodian or correspondent of the Depositary from the Issuer which were both received by the Depositary as the holder
of the Deposited Securities and made generally available to the holders of such Deposited Securities by the Issuer. Such
reports and communications will be available in the language in which they were received by the Depositary from the Issuer, except
to the extent, if any, that the Depositary in its sole discretion elects both to translate into English any of such reports or
communications that were not in English when received by the Depositary and to make any such translation available for such inspection
by Holders of the Receipts. The Depositary has no obligation of any kind to translate any of such reports or communications
or to make any such translation available for inspection. The Depositary shall not incur any liability to any Holder or Beneficial
Owner by reason of any such translation provided by the Depositary, whether or not such translation was prepared by the Depositary,
nor shall the Depositary incur any liability for any misstatement in or omission from any reports or communications received by
the Depositary or any agent, nominee, custodian or correspondent of the Depositary from the Issuer and which the Depositary makes
available to the Holder. The Issuer shall remain in all circumstances the official source of all information about itself in any
such report or communication and the Depositary shall not be responsible for the content thereof or any error therein.
Upon the
written request of the Holder hereof and the payment by the Holder to the Depositary of a fee determined by the Depositary
and any expenses and costs involved, the Depositary will endeavor insofar as practicable to exercise any then existing voting
rights with respect to an amount of the Deposited Shares represented hereby in accordance with such request.
12.
Distributions
.
Until
the termination of the agreement evidenced in this Receipt in accordance with the terms hereof, the Depositary shall distribute
or otherwise make available to the Holder hereof, at a time and in such manner as it shall determine, any cash dividend, other
cash distribution, distribution of Shares, subscription or other rights or any other distribution with respect to the Deposited
Securities represented by the American Depositary Shares evidenced hereby, after deduction, or upon payment of, the fees and expenses
of the Depositary described in Article 19 hereof, and the withholding of any taxes in respect thereof;
provided
,
however
,
that the Depositary shall not make any distribution which in the opinion of counsel may violate the Securities Act of 1933 or
any other applicable law and for which it shall not have received adequate assurances with respect to compliance with such
law or laws, or if the Depositary otherwise determines that distribution would not be practicable and, in such cases, the Depositary
may sell such Shares, subscription or other rights, securities or other property. In the event that the Depositary
elects not to make any such distribution the Depositary need only notify Holders of the disposition thereof and the proceeds,
if any, of any such sales. Any dividend or other distribution received by the Depositary in cash in a currency other
than U.S. dollars shall, subject to the provisions of the following paragraph, be converted into U.S. dollars and distributed
as herein provided in U.S. dollars. In lieu of distributing fractional Shares, the Depositary may, in its discretion, sell
the amount of securities or property equal to the aggregate of any fractional Shares. The Depositary shall have discretion
as to the procedure to be followed in making subscription or other rights available to any Holder or in disposing of such rights
on behalf of any Holder and making the net proceeds available to such Holder, provided that if by the terms of such rights offering
or for any other reason it would be unlawful for the Depositary either to make such rights available to any Holder or dispose
of such rights and make the net proceeds from the sale of such rights available to such Holder, then the Depositary may allow
such rights to lapse. Sales of subscription or other rights, securities or other property by the Depositary may be made at
such time and in such manner as the Depositary may deem advisable and, in such case, the Depositary shall distribute to the Holder
hereof the net proceeds after deduction of the fees and expenses of the Depositary described in Article 19 hereof and any applicable
withholding taxes or other governmental charges in respect thereof.
If the Depositary
shall determine in its sole judgment that any cash distribution is not convertible in its entirety or with respect to the Holders
of a portion of the Receipts on a reasonable basis into U.S. dollars available to it in the City of New York, or if any required
approval or license of any government or agency for such conversion is denied or is not obtainable within a reasonable period,
the Depositary may in its discretion make such conversion and distribution in U.S. dollars to the extent possible to the Holders
entitled thereto, at such time and rates of conversion as the Depositary shall deem appropriate, and shall with respect to any
such currency not converted or convertible either distribute such currency to the Holders entitled thereto or hold such currency
for the respective accounts of such Holders and distribute appropriate warrants or other instruments evidencing rights to receive
such foreign currency. Fractional cents will be withheld without liability and dealt with by the Depositary in accordance with
its then current practices.
13.
Record
Dates
.
Whenever any cash dividend or other cash distribution shall become payable or any distribution other
than cash shall be made, or whenever rights shall be issued, with respect to Deposited Securities, or whenever the Depositary
shall receive notice of any of the foregoing or meeting of holders of Shares or other Deposited Securities, or whenever it is
necessary or convenient in the judgment of the Depositary to determine the Holders of Receipts, the Depositary will fix a record
date for the determination of the Holders generally or the Holders of Receipts who shall be entitled to receive such dividend,
distribution or rights, or the net proceeds of the sale thereof, or to give instructions for the exercise of voting rights at
any such meeting. Surrender of this Receipt for registration of transfer subsequent to any such record date and prior
to the date of payment, distribution or meeting shall not affect the right of the Holder hereof on such record date to receive
such payment or distribution or, subject to Article 11 hereof, to direct the manner of voting the Deposited Securities represented
hereby.
14.
Forwarding
and Delivery of Deposited Securities
.
At any time the Depositary may, in its sole discretion, cause any or
all Deposited Securities to be forwarded at the cost and risk of the Holders of the Receipts to the Depositary’s Office
or to any agent, nominee, custodian or correspondent of the Depositary, to be held by the Depositary, or such agent, nominee,
custodian or correspondent, in which case the Holder hereof shall have, in lieu of the option set forth in clauses (1) and (2)
of the first paragraph on the face hereof, the right (i) to receive at no additional cost at the Depositary’s Office or
the office of such agent, nominee, custodian or correspondent, as the case may be, or (ii) to have forwarded, at the cost and
risk of such Holder, to or upon the order of such Holder at the address designated by such Holder to the Depositary in writing,
such amount of Deposited Securities as are represented hereby upon the surrender of this Receipt properly endorsed
or accompanied by proper instruments of transfer and upon payment of the applicable fees, taxes and charges. The Depositary
shall not incur any liability to any Holder or Beneficial Owner of this Receipt by reason of any such forwarding or failure to
forward any or all Deposited Securities.
15.
Changes
Affecting Deposited Securities
.
Upon (i) any change in nominal or par value, or any split-up, combination or
any other reclassification, of any Deposited Securities or (ii) any recapitalization, reorganization, sale of assets, liquidation,
receivership, bankruptcy, merger or consolidation affecting the Issuer or to which it is a party, then and in any such case the
Depositary shall have the right to exchange or surrender such Deposited Securities and accept and hold hereunder in lieu thereof
other shares, securities, cash or property to be issued or delivered in lieu of or in exchange for, or distributed or paid with
respect to, such Deposited Securities. Upon any such exchange or surrender, the Depositary shall have the right, in
its discretion, to call for surrender of this Receipt in exchange (upon payment of fees and expenses of the Depositary and any
applicable taxes and governmental or other charges) for one or more new Receipts of the same form and tenor as this Receipt, specifically
describing such new shares, securities, cash or other property. In any such case the Depositary shall have the right
to fix a date after which this Receipt shall only entitle the Holder to receive such new Receipt or Receipts.
If any of the Deposited
Securities are redeemable, the Depositary shall have the rights set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph. The
Depositary shall mail notice of any redemption of Deposited Securities to the Holders of Receipts, provided that, in the case
of any redemption of less than all of the Deposited Securities, the Depositary shall draw in such manner as it shall determine
an equivalent number of American Depositary Shares and shall mail notice of redemption only to the Holders of Receipts evidencing
the American Depositary Shares so drawn for redemption, in whole or in part. The sole right of the Holders of Receipts
evidencing American Depositary Shares designated for redemption after the mailing of any such notice of redemption shall be to
receive the cash, rights and/or other property applicable to the same, upon surrender to the Depositary (and upon payment of the
fees and expenses of the Depositary and any applicable taxes and governmental or other charges) of the Receipts evidencing such
American Depositary Shares.
16.
Liability
of the Depositary
.
Neither the Depositary nor any of its agents assumes any obligation, and none of them shall incur
any liability, to any Holder or Beneficial Owner of this Receipt (including, without limitation, liability with respect to any
investment risk associated with acquiring or disposing of an interest in the Deposited Securities, for the validity or worth,
or the rights or entitlement appertaining to, or any fluctuation in value of, the Deposited Securities, for the content of any
information submitted to it or the Custodian by or on behalf of the Issuer and distributed to Holders or Beneficial Owners (including
for any misstatement therein or omissions therefrom) or for any tax consequences that may result from the ownership of American
Depositary Shares, Shares or Deposited Securities and/or with respect to the time and rates for conversion of any foreign
currency into U.S. dollars) except that it agrees to perform its obligations specifically set forth in this Receipt without gross
negligence or willful misconduct and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into the agreement evidenced in this Receipt
against the Depositary or its agents. In addition, neither the Depositary nor any of its agents shall incur any liability to any
Holder or Beneficial Owner of this Receipt or any other person or entity if, by reason of any provisions of any present or future
law, rule, regulation, fiat, order or decree of the United States of America, or of any state thereof, or of any foreign country,
or political subdivision or jurisdiction thereof or of any governmental entity or regulatory authority or stock exchange, or by
reason of any provision, present or future, of the charter or certificate of incorporation, memorandum or articles of association,
statutes, code of regulations, by-laws or resolutions of the Issuer, the Depositary or its agents shall be prevented or forbidden
from or subjected to any civil or criminal penalty or extraordinary expenses on account of doing or performing any act or thing
which by the terms hereof shall be done or performed; nor shall the Depositary or any of its agents incur any liability to any
Holder or Beneficial Owner hereof by reason of any delay in the performance or non-performance of any act or thing which by the
terms hereof shall be done or performed, caused as aforesaid or arising out of any act of God, war, terrorism, nationalization,
expropriation, currency restrictions, work stoppage, strike, civil unrest, revolutions, rebellions, explosions, computer failure
or circumstance beyond its control, or by reason of any exercise of, or failure to exercise, any discretion provided for herein
or otherwise. In no event shall the Depositary or any of its agents be liable for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential
damages or be liable to any person other than the Holder. The Depositary shall not be responsible for, and shall incur no
liability in connection with or arising from, any act or omission to act on the part of the Custodian. The Depositary and its
agents may rely and shall be protected in acting upon any written notice, request, direction, instruction or document believed
by them to be genuine and to have been signed, presented or given by the proper party or parties. The Depositary shall be
under no obligation to inform Holders or Beneficial Owners about the requirements of any laws, rules or regulations or any changes
therein or thereto. Nothing in this Receipt shall establish a fiduciary relationship between the parties.
The Depositary
shall not be responsible for any failure to carry out any requests to vote or for the manner or effect of any vote made either
with or without request, or for not exercising any right to vote. The Depositary shall be under no obligation to appear
in, prosecute or defend any action, suit or other proceeding in respect of any of the Deposited Securities or in respect of the
Receipts which in its opinion may involve it in expense or liability, unless indemnity satisfactory to it against all expenses
and liabilities be furnished as often as may be required. The Depositary shall not incur any liability to any Holder or Beneficial
Owner of a Receipt for any action or ina
c
tion by it in reliance upon the advice of or information from legal counsel, accountants,
any person presenting Shares for deposit, any Holder or Beneficial Owner or any other person believed by it to be competent to
give such advice or information. The Depositary and any of its affiliates may each become the owner of and deal in
securities of any class of the Issuer and in Receipts.
The Depositary
shall not be liable for the acts or omissions made by, or the insolvency of, any securities depository, clearing agency or settlement
system. The Depositary shall not be responsible for, and shall incur no liability in connection with or arising from, the
insolvency of any Custodian that is not a branch or affiliate of the Depositary. The Depositary shall not have any liability for
the price received in connection with any sale of securities, the timing thereof or any delay in action or omission to act nor
shall it be responsible for any error or delay in action, omission to act, default or negligence on the part of the party so retained
in connection with any such sale or proposed sale. The Depositary shall not be responsible for, and shall incur no liability in
connection with or arising from, any act or omission to act on the part of the Custodian.
The issuer of the Receipts
is deemed to be the legal entity resulting from the agreement evidenced in this Receipt.
17.
Amendment
of Receipts
.
The form of the Receipts may at any time and from time to time be amended by the Depositary in
any respect which it may deem necessary or desirable. Any amendment which shall prejudice any substantial existing
right of Holders shall not become effective as to outstanding Receipts until the expiration of 30 days after notice of such amendment
shall have been given to the Holders of outstanding Receipts;
provided
,
however
, that such 30 days’ notice
shall in no event be required with respect to any amendment which shall impose or increase any taxes or other governmental charges,
registration fees, cable, telex or facsimile transmission costs, delivery costs or other such expenses. Every
Holder of a Receipt at the time any amendment so becomes effective shall be deemed, by continuing to hold such Receipt, to consent
and agree to such amendment and to be bound by the agreement evidenced in this Receipt as amended thereby. In no event
shall any amendment impair the right of the Holder of any Receipt to surrender such Receipt and receive therefor the Deposited
Securities represented by the American Depositary Shares evidenced thereby, except in order to comply with mandatory provisions
of applicable law. Any amendments or supplements which the Depositary believes (i) are reasonably necessary in order
for the American Depositary Shares to be registered on Form F-6 under the Securities Act of 1933 or the American Depositary Shares
or the Shares to be traded solely in electronic book-entry form and (ii) do not in either such case impose or increase any
fees or charges to be borne by Holders, shall be deemed not to materially prejudice any substantial rights of Holders or Beneficial
Owners. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any governmental or regulatory body should adopt new laws, rules or regulations which
would require amendment or supplement to the terms hereof to ensure compliance therewith, the Depositary may amend or supplement
the terms hereof at any time in accordance with such changed laws, rules or regulations. Such amendment or supplement
to the terms hereof may become effective before a notice of such amendment or supplement is given to Holders or within any other
period of time as required for compliance with such laws, rules or regulations. Notice of any amendment to the terms hereof
shall not need to describe in detail the specific amendments effectuated thereby, and failure to describe the specific amendments
in any such notice shall not render such notice invalid, provided, however, that, in each such case, the notice given to the Holders
identifies a means for Holders to retrieve or receive the text of such amendment.
18.
Termination
of Agreement and Surrender of this Receipt
.
The Depositary may at any time terminate the agreement evidenced
in this Receipt and all other Receipts by mailing notice of such termination to the Holders of all the Receipts then outstanding
at their addresses appearing upon the books of the Depositary, at least 30 days prior to the date fixed in such notice of termination.
On and after such date of termination the Holder hereof, upon surrender of this Receipt at the Depositary’s Office, will
be entitled to delivery of the amount of the Deposited Securities represented by the American Depositary Shares evidenced hereby
at such date of termination upon the same terms and conditions, upon payment of a fee at the rates provided herein with respect
to the surrender of this Receipt for Deposited Securities and upon payment of any applicable taxes and governmental or other charges.
The Depositary may convert any dividends received by it in cash after the termination date into U.S. dollars as herein provided,
and after deducting therefrom the fees and expenses of the Depositary and taxes and other governmental charges referred to herein,
hold the balance of said dividends for the
pro rata
benefit of the Holders of the respective Receipts. As to any Receipts
not so surrendered within 30 days after such date of termination, the Depositary shall thereafter have no obligation with respect
to the collection or disbursement of any subsequent dividends or any subscriptions or other rights accruing on the Deposited Securities. After
the expiration of six months from such date of termination the Depositary may sell any remaining Deposited Securities in such
manner as it may determine appropriate and may thereafter hold uninvested the net proceeds of any such sale or sales, together
with any dividends received prior to such sale or the U.S. dollars received on conversion thereof, unsegregated and without liability
for interest thereon, for the
pro rata
benefit of the Holders of the Receipts which have not theretofore been surrendered
for cancellation, such Holders thereupon becoming general creditors of the Depositary with respect to such net proceeds. After
making such sale, or if no such sale can be made after the expiration of two years from such date of termination, the Depositary
shall be discharged from all obligations whatsoever to the Holders and Beneficial Owners of the Receipts except to make distributions
of the net proceeds of sale and of such dividends (after deducting all fees, charges and expenses of the Depositary) or of the
Deposited Securities in case no sale can be made upon surrender of the Receipts.

Miscellaneous.
From
time to time the Depositary may pay rebates to brokers (including, without limitation, brokers that are affiliates of the Depositary)
that deposit Shares with the Depositary for the issuance of Receipts. The Depositary assumes no obligation or responsibility,
and expressly disclaims any liability arising out of, or relating to, such rebates, including without limitation whether such
rebates or any portion thereof are passed on to Beneficial Owners by such brokers. Each Holder or Beneficial Owner of this
Receipt hereby acknowledges that affiliates of the Depositary may provide services in connection with this Receipt or otherwise
earn commissions or fees in connection with transactions related hereto. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (i) the
Depositary and its affiliates may be engaged at any time in transactions in which parties adverse to the Holders or Beneficial
Owners may have interests and (ii) nothing contained in this Agreement shall (a) preclude the Depositary or any of its affiliates
from engaging in such transactions or establishing or maintaining such relationships, or (b) obligate the Depositary or any of
its affiliates to disclose such transactions or relationships or to account for any profit made or payment received in such transactions
or relationships, except as required by law.
Persons are advised
that in converting foreign currency into U.S. dollars the Depositary may utilize Deutsche Bank AG or its affiliates (collectively,
“DBAG”) to effect such conversion by seeking to enter into a foreign exchange (“FX”) transaction with
DBAG. When converting currency, the Depositary is not acting as a fiduciary for the holders or beneficial owners of depositary
receipts or any other person. Moreover, in executing FX transactions, DB AG will be acting in a principal capacity, and not as
agent, fiduciary or broker, and may hold positions for its own account that are the same, similar, different or opposite to the
positions of its customers, including the Depositary. When the Depositary seeks to execute an FX transaction to accomplish
such conversion, customers should be aware that DBAG is a global dealer in FX for a full range of FX products and, as a result,
the rate obtained in connection with any requested foreign currency conversion may be impacted by DBAG executing FX transactions
for its own account or with another customer. In addition, in order to source liquidity for any FX transaction relating
to any foreign currency conversion, DBAG may internally share economic terms relating to the relevant FX transaction with persons
acting in a sales or trading capacity for DBAG or one of its agents. DBAG may charge fees and/or commissions to the Depositary
or add a mark-up in connection with such conversions, which are reflected in the rate at which the foreign currency will be converted
into U.S. dollars.
Any corporation
into or with which the Depositary may be merged or consolidated shall be the successor of the Depositary and, in addition, the
Depositary may transfer its functions as depositary hereunder to any of its affiliates, whereupon such affiliate shall succeed
to and have vested in it all rights and obligations of the Depositary, without in any such case, whether of succession or transfer,
the execution or filing of any document or any further act, except as may be required by law.
