REGULATORY RELEASE
11 September 2014
Result of General Meeting
Lonmin Plc (“Lonmin” or “the Company”) announces that at a General Meeting of its shareholders
held earlier today two resolutions were duly approved.
Resolution 1 was an ordinary resolution (requiring support of at least 50% of the votes cast) to
authorise the board to allot 13,125,436 ordinary shares of $1 each in the capital of the Company
(the “Placing Shares”) in connection with the Bapo BEE Transaction announced to the markets on 30
July 2014.
Resolution 2 was a special resolution (requiring support of at least 75% of the votes cast) to
authorise the board to allot the Placing Shares for a cash consideration other than on a pro-rata
basis, by dis-applying the pre-emption rights otherwise imposed by law.
The full voting results are as follows:

The votes on each resolution were taken by way of a poll, so the voting results above include votes
cast by proxy.
As noted in the original announcement and the Circular issued in connection with the General
Meeting, completion of the Bapo BEE Transaction is expected to earn empowerment credits for the
relevant Lonmin Group companies, but remains subject a small number of conditions precedent,
largely of an administrative nature. It is currently expected that the Bapo BEE Transaction will
achieve completion by or before mid-November 2014; a further announcement will be issued when
this occurs.

Notes to editors
Lonmin, which is listed on both the London Stock Exchange and the Johannesburg Stock Exchange, is
one of the world's largest primary producers of PGMs. These metals are essential for many industrial
applications, especially catalytic converters for internal combustion engine emissions, as well as
their widespread use in jewellery.
Lonmin's producing assets are situated in the Bushveld Complex in South Africa, where nearly 80% of
known global PGM resources are found.
The Company creates value for shareholders through mining, refining and marketing PGMs and has a
vertically integrated operational structure - from mine to market. Lonmin's mining operations
extract ore from which the Process Division produces refined PGMs for delivery to customers.
Underpinning the operations is the Shared Services function which provides high quality levels of
support and infrastructure across the operations.
