CAUTIONARY ANNOUNCEMENT RELATING TO THE INTRODUCTION OF A NEW BEE SHAREHOLDER
Shareholders are advised that Esorfranki has received an expression of interest from a BEE
Investment Consortium, which is subject to suspensive conditions, relating to the acquisition
via the subscription and purchase by that BEE Investment Consortium of 118 million Esorfranki
ordinary shares.
It is proposed that:
* 54 million Esorfranki ordinary shares will be subscribed for in terms of a specific issue
of shares for cash at a subscription price of R1.50 each; and
* 64 million Esorfranki ordinary shares will be acquired in the form of an open process
that will allow all current Esorfranki shareholders to tender their Esorfranki ordinary
shares for sale at R1.50 per share. In the event of more than 64 million Esorfranki
ordinary shares being tendered, a pro-rata apportionment will take place.
Shareholders are advised to exercise caution when dealing in their Esorfranki ordinary shares
until a formal agreement is signed in this regard and a further announcement is made.
