 FINANCIAL EFFECTS OF LOAN, ISSUE OF DEBENTURES, SHARE OPTIONS, SPECIFIC
           ISSUE AND WITHDRAWAL OF CAUTIONARY ANNOUNCEMENT

1.   Introduction

     1.1. Shareholders are referred to the announcement released on 7 March 2014, that the
          company had decided to raise R16.2 million by means of a loan, the issuing of 135
          million debentures at 12 cents each, and the granting of options to subscribe for 135
          million shares at 12 cents each to related parties.

     1.2. On 26 June 2014 it was announced that an additional investor had undertaken to
          provide an additional R15 million by means of an additional loan, the subscription for
          125 million additional debentures at 12 cents each and options to subscribe for an
          additional 125 million shares at 12 cents each to a non-related party.

     1.3. The combined effect of the aforegoing is that the subscribers will subscribe in cash for
          260 million debentures for an aggregate price of R31.2 (thirty one million two hundred
          thousand Rand). RBA will grant share options to subscribe for 260 million ordinary
          shares in RBA at 12 cents per share. The issue price was determined by the Board on
          7 March 2014, being the date that the Board of RBA approved the transaction with the
          related parties.

     1.4. The financial effects of the aforegoing are set out below.

2. Financial effects

     2.1. The pro forma financial effects have been prepared for the purposes of illustrating how
          the loan, issuing of debentures, granting of the share options and specific issue would
          have affected the financial position of RBA for the historical financial period indicated.
          Accordingly, such effects may not necessarily fairly represent the financial effects of
          the loan, issuing of debentures, granting of the share options and specific issue on
          RBA’s financial position.
     2.2. The pro forma financial effects have been compiled using accounting policies that
          comply with IFRS and that are consistent with those applied in the audited consolidated
          financial statements of RBA for the year ended 31 December 2013. The pro forma
          figures have been given no greater prominence than unadjusted financial figures, and
          represented in a manner consistent with both the format and accounting policies
          adopted in the historical financial information and adjustments have been quantified on
          the same basis as would normally be calculated in preparing financial statements.

     2.3. The directors are responsible for the preparation of the pro forma financial effects. The
          detailed pro forma financial statements and the independent reporting accountants’
          report on the pro forma financial statements will be included in the circular.

     2.4. The table below sets out the pro forma financial effects of the loan by the related parties
