Review of the CEMENT loan repayment profile
The Company is pleased to advise that the review of the Dangote Cement SA (Pty) Ltd (“CEMENT” or
“the associate”) loan repayment profile by the lenders to eliminate the pressure on the debt service
ratio covenant is close to a satisfactory conclusion. The revised payment profile should be concluded
by the end of August rather than 31 July as previously disclosed. The month delay has essentially
been due to a lag in the administrative processes and completion of legal agreements. The Company
will provide a detailed announcement as soon as the agreement is finalised.
