HEALTH DIVIDEND DECLARATION ANNOUNCEMENT                                        
1.   INTRODUCTION                                                               
    Holders of ordinary shares and "N" ordinary shares in Brimstone ("Brimstone 
    shareholders"), and ordinary shares in Health ("Health ordinary shares")    
    ("Health shareholders") are hereby informed that Health directors today     
declared a dividend of R0.23 per Health ordinary share to its shareholders  
    ("dividend decleration"). This amounts to a total dividend of R63.76        
    million to all current Health shareholders. This amount falls due to all    
    current Health shareholders.                                                
2.   REGULATORY PURPOSES ONLY                                                   
    Health is an associate of Brimstone, which Health ordinary shares directly  
    held by Brimstone will soon be unbundled to Brimstone shareholders          
    ("Unbundling"). The proceeds of the dividend will be received by Brimstone  
and not by new Health ordinary shareholders post the Unbundling. The        
    dividend declaration is part of the process of the Unbundling of            
    Brimstone`s direct holding in Health to Brimstone shareholders.             
This announcement is required for regulatory purposes only and no action is     
required by Brimstone shareholders or Health shareholders.
