Pan African wishes to advise shareholders it will appoint Deon Louw (52) as
FD of the Company, to replace Cobus Loots who, as previously announced,
will become CEO. Both appointments will take effect from 1 March 2015.

Mr. Gideon Petrus Louw is a South African qualified chartered accountant
and a CFA® charterholder. He also holds a Higher Diploma in Tax Law. Most
recently Mr. Louw was the FD of the JSE-listed mining services group
Sentula Mining Limited, a position he held from 2007 to 2014. He was also
previously the head of structured resource finance at Investec Bank
Limited.

Keith Spencer, Chairman of Pan African, commented: “The Board welcomes Deon
and we wish him well in his new role. We are confident that his extensive
experience in the South African mining sector will add value to the Pan
African business”.
