Introduction Debenture holders are referred to the terms and conditions set out in the Lereko Mobility pre-listing statement, dated 12 May 2005, and the subsequent amendments contained in the Eqstra Holdings Limited ("Eqstra) unbundling circular dated 20 March 2008, which provide for the redemption of the Debentures in cash by Lereko Mobility, with effect from the final redemption date, being 1 October 2010, in terms of the Debenture Trust Deed. 2. Final redemption amount Each Debenture will be redeemed in cash by Lereko Mobility for an amount equal to its principal amount of R41.50, plus a further bonus amount which will depend on the performance of Imperial Holdings Limited ("Imperial") and Eqstra ordinary shares. The listing of the Lereko Mobility Debentures will be terminated upon redemption. The final redemption amount will be calculated according to the following formula: R = P + SR x ((SIPL - PIPL x B) + (SEQS - PEQS x B)) provided that - if SIPL < PIPL x B, SIPL shall equal PIPL x B; and if SEQS < PEQS x B, SEQS shall equal PEQS x B Where:- R = the redemption amount in respect of each Debenture; P = R41.50, being the principal amount; SR = 0.25, being the share ratio, which means, the number of Imperial shares and the number of Eqstra shares, which are attributable to each Debenture, as adjusted in terms of clause 19; SIPL = the 10-day VWAP in respect of Imperial shares, calculated over the 10 consecutive trading days up to and including Friday, 10 September 2010; SEQS = the 10-day VWAP in respect of Eqstra shares, calculated over the 10 consecutive trading days up to and including Friday, 10 September 2010; PIPL = the percentage that the 1-day VWAP in respect of Imperial shares constitutes of the sum of the 1-day VWAPs in respect of Imperial shares and Eqstra shares, for the first trading day of the listing of the Eqstra shares on the JSE pursuant to the Eqstra unbundling; PEQS = the percentage that the 1-day VWAP in respect of Eqstra shares constitutes of the sum of the 1-day VWAPs in respect of Imperial shares and Eqstra shares, for the first trading day of the listing of the Eqstra shares on the JSE pursuant to the Eqstra unbundling; B = R145.25, being the original base price, as adjusted for the occurrence of relevant corporate events; The calculation of the final redemption amount per Debenture shall be rounded to 5 decimal places and then, in respect of each Debenture holder, the final redemption amount in respect of the aggregate number of Debentures held by such Debenture holder, shall be rounded to 2 decimal places.
