RENEWAL OF CAUTIONARY ANNOUNCEMENT                                              
Shareholders are referred to the cautionary announcements dated 14 June         
and 26 July 2010 ("the Announcements") containing details of the proposed       
acquisition by Avusa of the entire issued share capitals of Universal Print     
Group (Proprietary) Limited ("UPG") and Hirt & Carter (Proprietary) Limited     
("H&C") from UHC Communications (Proprietary) Limited ("UHC"), as well as any   
claims that UHC may have against UPG and H&C ("the Transaction").               
The Announcements contained details of the suspensive conditions which          
require fulfilment or waiver in order for the Transaction to be implemented.    
The suspensive conditions included, inter alia, the conclusion, to the          
satisfaction of Avusa, of a due diligence investigation in relation to UPG and  
H&C, approval by the relevant competition authorities for the implementation    
of the Transaction and the conclusion of a formal agreement to give effect      
to the Transaction. The due diligence investigation has been finalised to the   
satisfaction of Avusa, and the Competition Commission of South Africa has       
approved the Transaction, with no conditions attached. The formal agreement     
to give effect to the Transaction is in the process of being finalised.         
As the formal agreement has not yet been concluded and as the pro forma         
financial effects of the Transaction have not yet been announced, shareholders  
are advised to continue to exercise caution when dealing in their Avusa shares  
until a further announcement is made.
