1. INTRODUCTION
Shareholders are referred to the announcement released on the Stock Exchange News Service (“SENS”)
of the JSE Limited on 27 May 2021 advising shareholders that Transaction Capital Motor Holdco
Proprietary Limited (“TCMH”) (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Transaction Capital) concluded agreements
to (i) subscribe for shares in WBC Holdings Proprietary Limited (“WBC Holdco”) and acquire shares from
certain of the existing shareholders in WBC Holdco; and (ii) exchange the existing shares held by TCMH
in We Buy Cars Proprietary Limited for newly issued shares in WBC Holdco, such that following the
implementation of the agreements, TCMH will hold 74.9% of the issued shares in WBC Holdco on a fully
diluted basis (the “transaction”).
Shareholders are also referred to the announcement released on SENS on 22 September 2021 advising
shareholders that pursuant to the partial fulfilment of one of the conditions precedent to the
transaction, TCMH, had concluded a shareholders agreement (“shareholders agreement”) with, inter
alios, WBC Holdco and I VDW Holdings Proprietary Limited (“IVDW”) which included put options in
favour of IVDW and call options in favour of WBC Holdco (collectively “put and call option
arrangements”) which, if exercised, could result in WBC Holdco and/or TCMH acquiring, in various
increments and at various intervals, additional shares in WBC Holdco up to a maximum of 25.1% of the
shares in WBC Holdco (being all of the shares in WBC Holdco which will be held by IVDW after
implementation of the transaction and which, if implemented in full, will result in WBC Holdco becoming
a wholly owned subsidiary of TCMH).
2. FULFILMENT OF CONDITIONS PRECEDENT AND IMPLEMENTATION
Transaction Capital is pleased to advise that all conditions precedent to the transaction as set out in the
agreements (including the shareholders agreement) have been fulfilled or waived. Accordingly, the
transaction and the put and call option arrangements are now unconditional. The transaction (but not,
for the sake of clarity, the put and call option arrangements) has been implemented today, 5 October
2021.
